Adding a Host to a Cluster
This only applies for multi-host clusters. For information about installing MarkLogic and a more detailed procedure about joining a cluster, see the Installation Guide.
To add a host to a cluster, follow these steps in the Admin Interface:
Install MarkLogic Server on the host if it is not already installed.
Start MarkLogic Server.
Access the Admin Interface on the host in which you want to add to the cluster and accept the license agreement.
After the server restarts, you will be prompted to join a cluster.
Enter the DNS name or the IP address of one of the machines in the cluster. For example, if this is the second host you are installing, you can enter the DNS name of the first host you installed.
You will be prompted for an admin username and password. Enter the admin username and password for the security database used by the cluster. Click OK.
Select a Group to assign this host. Click OK.
Click OK to confirm that you are joining the cluster.
Click OK for the confirmation message that indicates that you have joined the cluster.
