Adding a New Server
To add a new server to a Terracotta cluster, follow these steps:
1. Add a new <server> block to the <servers> or <mirror-group> section in the Terracotta configuration file being used by the cluster. The new <server> block should contain the minimum information required to configure a new server. It should appear similar to the following, with your own values substituted:
<server host="myHost" name="server2" >
<data>%(user.home)/terracotta/server2/server-data</data>
<logs>%(user.home)/terracotta/server2/server-logs</logs>
<tsa-port>9510</tsa-port>
<management-port>9540</management-port>
</server>
2. Make sure you are connected to the TMC, and that the TMC is connected to the target cluster. See the Terracotta Management Console User Guide for more information on using the TMC.
3. With the target cluster selected in the TMC, click the Administration tab, then choose the panel.
4. Click Reload. A message appears with the result of the reload operation. A successful operation logs a message similar to the following:
2013-03-14 13:25:44,821 INFO - Successfully overridden server topology
from file at '/bigmemory-max-4/tc-config.xml'.
5. Start the new server.
