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.
