Overview

A Management Node is a cluster node that participates fully in cluster control and consensus. An IDAC is designated as a management node when it is assigned all three cluster roles: voter, log, and recording. Management nodes participate in RAFT leadership elections, maintain cluster logs, and store session recordings.

The Admin Portal IDAC page indicates which IDACs are designated as management nodes, giving you clear visibility into your cluster configuration.

Management Nodes API

You can query management node status programmatically using the following endpoints:

Get all management nodes

GET /v1/management_nodes

Get cluster health status

GET /v1/management_nodes/status

Returns a list of violations (if any). An empty violations list indicates a healthy cluster.
