Adding Machines

You may want to add machines if HADB requires more processing or storage capacity. To add a new machine on which to run HADB, install HADB packages with or without the Enterprise Serveras described in Chapter 2, Installing and Setting Up High Availability Database. For an explanation of node topology alternatives, see the Selecting a Topology chapter in Sun GlassFish Enterprise Server 2.1 Deployment Planning guide on docs.sun.com.

To add new machines to an existing HADB instance

1. Start management agents on the new nodes.

2. Extend the management domain to the new hosts.

   For details, see hadbm extenddomain command.

3. Start the new nodes on these hosts.
