What to do next
You can monitor the status of your scale in request on the Requests tab on the vRealize Automation
console.
Scale Out Deployments from vCloud Automation Center
You can request to scale out one or more clustered nodes in an existing deployment from the

application blueprint.
You cannot scale out a deployment that uses a blueprint that has a mapped artifact. For more information
about artifact management, see Chapter 15 Working with Artifacts.
