| #### The Default Replica and Default Cell Most sec_admin commands are directed to a default replica. When sec_admin is invoked, it binds to a replica in the local cell. This replica becomes the default replica. Identifying the Default Replica and the Default Cell You use the site subcommand to change the default replica and, optionally, the default cell. When you use the site command, you can supply the name of a specific replica, or you can simply supply the name of a cell. If you supply a cell name, sec_admin binds to a replica in that cell randomly. If you supply a specific replica name, sec_admin binds to that replica. Specifically, you can supply any of the following names to the site subcommand: A cell name. If you enter a cell name, the named cell becomes the default cell. The sec_admin command randomly chooses a replica to bind to in the named cell, and that replica becomes the default replica. The global name given to the replica when it was created. A global name identifies a specific replica in a specific cell. That cell becomes the default cell and that replica the default replica. The replicas name as it appears on the replica list (a list maintained by each security server containing the network addresses of each replica in the local cell). That replica becomes the default replica and the cell in which the replica exists becomes the default cell. The network address of the host on which the replica is running. The replica on that host becomes the default replica, and the cell in which the host exists becomes the default cell. ####
