Assign servers to clusters

Before you begin

Ensure you have created a cluster and any Managed Servers you want to add to a cluster. For information on creating a cluster, see Create a cluster. For information on creating a Managed Server, see Create Managed Servers.


To assign server instances to a cluster.

  1. If you have not already done so, in the Change Center of the Administration Console, click Lock & Edit (see Use the Change Center).
  2. In the Administration Console, expand Environment and select Clusters.
  3. Select the cluster to which you want to assign servers.
  4. Select the Servers tab.
  5. Click Add
  6. To add an existing server to a the cluster:
    1. Select the Select an existing server button.
    2. Select a server from the drop down list.

      Note: You cannot change the cluster of the Administation Server using the Administration Console. You cannot change the cluster or machine of a running server.

    3. Click Finish.
  7. To create a new server as part of a cluster:
    1. Select the Create a new server and add it to this cluster button.
    2. Click Next.
    3. Provide the following information:
      • Server Name
      • Server Listen Address
      • Server Listen Port
    4. Click Finish.

      The new server appears in the list of servers and is added as a member of the current cluster.

  8. To activate these changes, in the Change Center of the Administration Console, click Activate Changes.
    Not all changes take effect immediately—some require a restart (see Use the Change Center).
