Select the most appropriate statement regarding the Management HA solution.

The correct answer isA. Management HA is designed to provide redundancy and database backup for Security Management Servers. The deployment begins with a Primary Security Management Server, and one or more Secondary Security Management Servers can be added. The Active server synchronizes its database with the Standby server or servers, so the management environment can continue if the current Active server becomes unavailable and an administrator manually promotes a Standby server. Option B is incorrect because Check Point does not limit the design to only one Secondary Management Server. Option C is nonsense in Check Point architecture; physical or network proximity to a Security Gateway does not determine Primary status. Option D is the major trap:Activeis the current operational role, whilePrimaryis the initial server role from installation/configuration. A Secondary server can become Active during a changeover, but it remains a Secondary Management Server by role.
