5. 2. Chapter 10 # Adding a Diskless or a Dataless Node to a Cluster Originally Created Manually This chapter describes how to add a diskless or dataless node to a cluster that was originally created manually. ## Adding a Diskless or Dataless Node Verify that the hardware of the new node is supported. For information, see the Netra High Availability Suite Foundation Services 2.1 6/03 Hardware Guide. Verify that after adding the node, your cluster configuration will be supported. For information, see the Netra High Availability Suite Foundation Services 2.1 6/03 Hardware Guide. Verify that the new node has a unique node ID and name. For a list of IDs and names of the nodes in the cluster, see the `cluster_nodes_table` file on the master node. Verify which packages and patches are to be installed. For information about the patches and packages required for your hardware configuration, see Netra High Availability Suite Foundation Services 2.1 6/03 README. Verify that the master node and vice-master node are running the Foundation Services. The configuration information is written to the master node and replicated to the vice-master node. Log in to the master node as superuser. Verify that the Foundation Services are running:
          # /opt/SUNWcgha/sbin/nhcmmstat -c all
This command returns the status of all nodes in the cluster. Add the node: To add a diskless node, use the procedure in Chapter 7, Installing the Software for Diskless Nodes. To add a dataless node, use the procedure in Chapter 8, Installing the Software on the Dataless Nodes. Update the network topology map to include the new node. For information, see "Examining the Cluster Networking Configuration" in Netra High Availability Suite Foundation Services 2.1 6/03 Cluster Administration Guide.
