5.5. Adding and Deleting Members
The procedures to add or delete a cluster member vary depending on whether the cluster is a newly
configured cluster or a cluster that is already configured and running.
To add a member to a new cluster, refer to Section 5.5.1, “Adding a Member to a New Cluster”.
To add or delete a cluster member in an existing cluster, refer to the following sections:
Section 5.5.2, “Adding a Member to a Running DLM Cluster”
Section 5.5.3, “Deleting a Member from a DLM Cluster”
Section 5.5.4, “Adding a GULM Client-only Member”
Section 5.5.5, “Deleting a GULM Client-only Member”
Section 5.5.6, “Adding or Deleting a GULM Lock Server Member”
5.5.1. Adding a Member to a New Cluster
To add a member to a new cluster, follow these steps:
1. At system-config-cluster, in the Cluster Configuration Tool tab, click Cluster Node.
2. At the bottom of the right frame (labeled Propert ies), click the Add a Cluster Node button.
Clicking that button causes a Node Properties dialog box to be displayed. For a DLM cluster,
the Node Properties dialog box presents text boxes for Cluster Node Name and Quorum
Votes (refer to Figure 5.5, “Adding a Member to a New DLM Cluster”). For a GULM cluster, the
Node Properties dialog box presents text boxes for Cluster Node Name and Quorum
Votes, and presents a checkbox for GULM Lockserver (refer to Figure 5.6, “Adding a Member to
a New GULM Cluster”)
Important
The number of nodes that can be configured as GULM lock servers is limited to either one,
three, or five.
