9.1.3 Connecting a Node

Join a new node with the existing cluster nodes.

Procedure

Connect the LAN, Cluster Interconnect, and the RCI of the new node to the existing cluster environment.
At this time, configure the RCI address for the new node.
(This operation is done by your Fujitsu CE.)
After setting the RCI address, boot up the existing cluster nodes and check that no error message is output to the console or syslog.
Boot the new node and confirm that the new node and its remote console are correctly configured in the network by executing the "ping(1M)" command.
Confirm that the RMS is stopped on any one of the existing cluster nodes, and then stop the SF by executing the following commands on each existing cluster node.
Confirm that RMS is stopped.
If the GFS shared file system is used in an existing node, take the following steps to stop the GFS operation.
1. Execute the following command for the entire GFS shared file system on any one of the existing cluster nodes, and then unmount the file system.
```
node1# sfcumntgl <mount point>
```
2. Execute the following command, and then stop the GFS daemon on all cluster nodes.
```
node1# sfcfrmstop
```
```
node1# hvdisp -a
hvdisp: RMS is not running
```
Stop SF. Execute the following command on all the existing cluster nodes.
```
node1# sdtool -e
node1# sdtool -s
(SMAWsf, 30, 13) : The RCSD is not running
```
