Complete the following preparatory steps on the new node before you add the node to an existing SFCFS cluster.
To prepare the new node
Make sure that the existing cluster is an SFCFS cluster and that SFCFS is running on the cluster.
Add the node physically to the existing cluster.
Make sure that you meet the following requirements:
The node must be connected to the same shared storage devices as the existing nodes.
The node must have private network connections to two independent switches for the cluster.
For more information, see the Veritas Cluster Server Installation Guide.
The network interface names used for the private interconnects on the new node must be the same as that of the existing nodes in the cluster.
