6. Restart HP Scalable NAS on the existing nodes. Add a new server To add a new server to a cluster, complete the following steps: 1. Install or set up HP Scalable NAS on the server. Perform the installation procedure in the HP Scalable NAS File Serving Software installation guide up to the step to configure the cluster. 2. Import the cluster configuration to the server. Issue the mxconfig command on the new server and open the Configure Cluster window. Then click Import to import the cluster configuration from another server in the cluster. You will be asked to specify the hostname of the server from which the configuration should be copied. Depending on your fencing method, you might also need to specify the hostnames of the FC switches that are directly connected to the servers in the cluster. If you are using Web Management-based fencing, you may be asked for additional information about the server. 3. Add the new server to the cluster. Go to the Cluster-Wide Configuration tab. The Address list shows the servers currently in the cluster. Click Add to add the new server to this list. You will be asked for the IP address or hostname of the new server. When the operation is complete, the new server will appear in the Address list. 4. Start HP Scalable NAS on the new server. Select the new server from the Address list, and click Start Service to start HP Scalable NAS on that server. When HP Scalable NAS is running on the server, click OK to close the Server Configuration window. 5. Connect to the cluster. Specify any server in the cluster on the HP Scalable NAS Connect window. The new server now appears on the Management Console. 6. If you are using the HP Scalable NAS administrative filesystem, mount the filesystem on the new server. Select the filesystem on the Management Console, right-click, and select Add Mount, or click Mount on the toolbar. On the Mount Filesystem window, select the new server from the On Servers pane and click OK. (Do not change the default mount options.) 72 Configure servers
