The Java Console provides several ways to add a service group to the systems in a cluster. Use Cluster Explorer, Command Center, or the Template View to perform this task.
Cluster Explorer provides several ways to add service groups. A few are explained in this section.

If necessary, double-click the entry in the Priority column to enter a new value.
Select the Startup check box to add the systems to the service groups AutoStartList attribute. This enables the service group to automatically come online on a system every time HAD is started.
