A hierarchy of Administration Servers
An MSP may run multiple Administration Servers. It can be inconvenient to administer several separate Administration Servers, so a hierarchy can be applied.
In a hierarchy, Kaspersky Security Center Linux Administration Server can only work as a secondary Server managed by a primary Administration Server of Windows-based Kaspersky Security Center or Kaspersky Security Center Cloud Console.
A "primary/secondary" configuration for two Administration Servers provides the following options:
- A secondary Administration Server inherits policies and tasks from the primary Administration Server, thus preventing duplication of settings.
- Selections of devices on the primary Administration Server can include devices from secondary Administration Servers.
- Reports on the primary Administration Server can contain data (including detailed information) from secondary Administration Servers.
The primary Administration Server only receives data from non-virtual secondary Administration Servers within the scope of the options listed above. This limitation does not apply to virtual Administration Servers, which share the database with their primary Administration Server.
