Adding the node to the existing cluster

Perform the tasks on one of the existing nodes in the cluster.

To add the new node to the existing cluster

  1. Enter the command:
    # haconf -makerw
  2. Add the new system to the cluster:
    # hasys -add sys1
  3. Copy the main.cf file from an existing node to your new node:
    # rcp /etc/VRTSvcs/conf/config/main.cf \
      sys5:/etc/VRTSvcs/conf/config/
  4. Check the VCS configuration file. No error message and a return value of zero indicates that the syntax is legal.
    # hacf -verify /etc/VRTSvcs/conf/config/
  5. If necessary, modify any new system attributes.
  6. Enter the command:
    # haconf -dump -makero
