Select Hosts Dialog Box

The Select Hosts dialog enables you to add or delete nodes during the current CCM session. The scrolled text window in the Select Hosts dialog displays a list of the nodes that are currently connected to CCM.

There are three Select Hosts dialog buttons, which are described in Table B-2

Table B-2 Select Hosts Dialog Buttons


Entry	Function
Insert	Opens a Term Window and establishes a connection to the specified hosts(s). Adds the host(s) specified in the Hostname text field to the list of accessible hosts. The inserted host name(s) are displayed in the hosts list in the scrolled text window and in the Common Window.
Remove	Deletes the host selected in the Hosts list in the scrolled text window.
Dismiss	Closes the Select Hosts dialog.

To Add a Single Node

Enter the hostname in the Hostname text field.

Select Insert.

Entering a valid host name opens a Term Window for the specified host and establishes a connection to that host. The name of the selected host appears in the scrolled text window and in the hosts list on the Hosts menu in the Common Window.

To Add All Nodes in a Cluster

Enter the clustername in the Hostname text field.

Select Insert.

CCM automatically expands the cluster name into its constituent host names and then opens one Term Window for each node. A connection is established for each of the constituent host names. CCM automatically displays the names of the hosts in the cluster in the scrolled text window and in the hosts list on the Hosts menu in the Common Window.

To Remove a Node

Select the name of the host in the list in the scrolled text window.

Select Remove.

This closes the corresponding Term Window and disconnects the host. The name of the removed host disappears from the scrolled text window and from the hosts list on the Hosts menu in the Common Window.
