Adding an Undefined Node to a Cluster Created by the SMCT

To add a node to a cluster created by the SMCT, the node must be included in the flash archives. If a node is not included in the flash archives at the initial cluster installation, you must recreate the flash archives to include the new node. When the node is included in the flash archives, the cluster configuration can be redeployed to another cluster or to the same cluster in the case of node failure. For information about redeploying a flash archive, see Chapter 9, Reconfiguring Your Deployment Environment.

If you add a node to a cluster created by the SMCT without reconfiguring the flash archives, you break the SMCT model. The configuration of that cluster is no longer the same as the flash archive used at cluster startup. It is no longer possible to regenerate the existing configuration by redeploying the flash archive.
