Create an additional cluster node

We can use the Configuration Wizard to add nodes to a cluster.


Configuration Wizard

The option to add a cluster node is the last step in the Set Up a Cluster cluster configuration.

Create an additional cluster node

After we answer questions and provide information about the LDAP, the wizard generates a custom configuration procedure.
