   1. In a browser window, open http://gateway_hostname:4848.

      The login screen for the Enterprise Server Admin Console appears.

      The Enterprise Server Admin Console appears.

2. Select Clusters in the navigation tree.

3. Select New to create a new cluster.

5. Select the default configuration.

6. Add at least 2 new server instances for now.

   The new cluster and its instances are created. This process may take a long time.
