Modifying email hybrid service configuration

Important

Multiple appliances controlled by a single email management server share the same email hybrid service configuration settings, regardless of appliance mode (cluster or standalone).

If you need to register more than 1 appliance with the email hybrid service from the same email management server, you should:

Add all your appliances to the module (Settings > General > Email Appliances).

Create an appliance cluster, if desired (Settings > General > Cluster Mode).

Enter your subscription key (Settings > General > Subscription).

Register the (Settings > Hybrid Service > Hybrid Configuration). If your appliances are operating in standalone mode, register from the appliance on which you entered the subscription key.

You may need to add an appliance after you have registered with the email hybrid service (for example, after a new appliance purchase). In this situation, you should add the new appliance to the module, then register your existing appliance with the email hybrid service again without changing any configuration settings. Hybrid service configuration is synchronized across all appliances after you re-register.
