A Practical Guide to Symantec PAM Secondary Sites
Symantec, Tuesday, September 29th, 2026
Symantec advises where to place PAM secondary sites and how many nodes each needs for performance and resilience.
In the second part of its PAM clustering series, Symantec explains how to extend Privileged Access Management with secondary sites.
Placing sites close to regional target devices shortens session paths and reduces lag for privileged users.
It recommends two nodes at standard regional sites for local high availability, and three nodes only at warm disaster recovery sites to keep fault tolerance after promotion, while keeping the primary site lean.
