264 Chapter 12 Configuring ColdFusion Clusters
Adding Cluster Members
You can add servers to an existing cluster at any time. This section describes the
following:
• “Adding cluster members in Windows” on page 264
• “Adding cluster members in UNIX” on page 265
Adding cluster members in Windows
Use the ClusterCATS Explorer to add servers to a cluster. If you used the Cluster Setup
Wizard (Windows only) to create a cluster and populate it with cluster members, you
can also add clusters using the procedure below.
To add an additional cluster member to a cluster:
1 Open the ClusterCATS Explorer and select a cluster.
2Select Cluster > New > Cluster Member. Alternatively, you can click the Add
button or right mouse click the cluster icon and choose
New >Cluster Member.
The Add New Server to Cluster dialog box appears:
3 In the Web Server Name field, enter the fully qualified host name of the Web
server (for example,
ckatz.allaire.com).
4 If you are using the ClusterCATS dynamic IP addressing scheme AND you do not
have the maintenance IP address bound to your NIC, select ClusterCATS
Maintenance Support.
If you are not configuring this Web server for offline maintenance support, go to
step 6.
Note
You can only set the maintenance support option when creating a cluster or
adding a cluster member to a cluster. You cannot configure or modify this option
after you have created and added the cluster member to the cluster.
