cluvfy stage [-pre | -post] nodeadd

Use the cluvfy stage -pre nodeadd command to verify the specified nodes are configured correctly before adding them to your existing cluster, and to verify the integrity of the cluster before you add the nodes.

This command verifies that the system configuration, such as the operating system version, software patches, packages, and kernel parameters, for the nodes that you want to add, is compatible with the existing cluster nodes, and that the clusterware is successfully operating on the existing nodes. Run this command on any node of the existing cluster.

Use the cluvfy stage -post nodeadd command to verify that the specified nodes have been successfully added to the cluster at the network, shared storage, and clusterware levels.

Syntax

cluvfy stage -pre nodeadd -n node_list [-vip vip_list] | -flex [-hub hub_list
  [-vip vip_list]] [-leaf leaf_list] [-fixup] [-fixupnoexec]
  [-method {sudo -user user_name [-location directory_path] | root}] [-verbose]

cluvfy stage -post nodeadd -n node_list [-verbose]

Parameters

Table A-33 cluvfy stage [-pre | -post] nodeadd Command Parameters

Parameter Description
-n node_list

A comma-delimited list of nondomain qualified node names on which to conduct the verification. These are the nodes you are adding or have added to the cluster.

-vip vip_list

A comma-delimited list of virtual IP addresses to be used by the new nodes.

-flex [-hub hub_list
 [-vip vip_list]]

Specify -flex if you are adding a node to an Oracle Flex Cluster. Optionally, you can specify a comma-delimited list of non-domain qualified node names that you want to add to the cluster as Hub Nodes.

Additionally, you can specify a comma-delimited list of virtual IP addresses that will be applied to the list of Hub Nodes you specify.

-leaf leaf_list

Optionally, you can specify a comma-delimited list of non-domain qualified node names that you want to add to the cluster as Leaf Nodes.

-fixup

Specifies that if the verification fails, then CVU performs fixup operations, if feasible.

-fixupnoexec

Specifies that if verification fails, then CVU generates the fixup data and displays the instructions for manual execution of the generated fixups.

-method {sudo -user user_name
 [-location dir_path] | root}

Specify whether the privilege delegation method is sudo or root, for root user access. If you specify sudo, then you must specify the user name to access all the nodes with root privileges and, optionally, provide the full file system path for the sudo executable.

-verbose

CVU prints detailed output.
