Redundant Cluster Manager Synchronization

When adding a new cluster manager to redundant cluster manager cluster do I need to manually deploy the current manager-apps?

The standby CM will receive the apps after they have been sent to the indexers.  If I understand the question correctly, that means you must manually deploy the cluster bundle as part of setting up CM Redundancy.  See https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/9.0.8/Indexer/CMredundancy#Update_the_peer_nodes.27_con...

@richgalloway  - thanks for the response.  I just wanted to make sure that I understood correctly that the cluster bundle must be pushed to indexers before the redundant CMs get the settings.

That's my interpretation of what's in the manual.
