Why am I unable to add the deployment server as a search peer to the Distributed Management Console?

[brdr]

Hi Support,

I'm configuring Distributed Management Console. The DMC will reside on cluster master. I've added indexers, search head, license master, and now trying to add the deployment server (ourserver) for DMC to monitor. When I go into Distributed search on DMC, I get following messages (see below) when adding deployment server. How do I go about adding the deployment server to the 'Overview', distributed topology? Thx.

Usually when you connect to the management port you should be using https://ourserver:8089 NOT http.

Doh! Thx for pointing that out. All okay now.
