This section describes how to install Kaspersky Security Center 13.1 Web Console Server (hereinafter also referred to as Kaspersky Security Center 13.1 Web Console), that connects to Administration Server installed on Microsoft failover cluster nodes. Prior to installing Kaspersky Security Center 13.1 Web Console, install a database management system and Kaspersky Security Center Administration Server on Microsoft failover cluster nodes.

We do not recommend installing Kaspersky Security Center 13.1 Web Console on a cluster node. In case of node failure, you will lose access to Administration Server.

      The Administration Server certificate is located in the shared data storage of the Microsoft failover cluster. The default path to the certificate file: <shared data folder>\1093\cert\klserver.cer.
