Security in a Self-Managed Cluster
When a Remote Services cluster is deployed without a Cluster Manager, authentication is more limited. Each node authenticates access according to predefined passwords, which are stored and optionally hashed in the configuration file. There is a password for each role (standard user, administrator and system administrator). All nodes of the cluster must use the same passwords, and they cannot be changed dynamically. Note that communication can also be encrypted using HTTPS.
