Adding servers to existing service

To add a server to an existing service:
On the Add Server(s) page, add the servers to the service in one of the following ways:
  • If you want to clone an existing server configuration to the servers that you want to add to the service, next to New Component Settings, click Duplicate, and perform the following steps:

    1. From the Resource to Duplicate drop-down list, select a server.

    2. In the # of Instances box, enter the number of server instances that you want to add to the service. Click Continue.

    3. In the Component Name box, enter the name of the corresponding servers.

    4. In the Server Pool box, enter the name of the server pool.

    5. In the Host Name box, enter the host name for the corresponding servers.

    6. Click Save.

  • If you want to add new server component, next to New Component Settings, click New, and perform the following steps:

    1. From the Select a Component drop-down list, select a server component.

    2. Under Associated Resources, perform one of the following actions:

      • When you are adding a new component to a template, if you want to associate the component with all the existing components, select Associate All resources option.

        The new component automatically associated with the existing components.

      • When you are adding a new component to a template, if you want to associate the component only with the selected components, select Associate Selected Resources, and then select the components to associate as needed.

      Based on the component type, specific settings and properties appear automatically that are required and can be edited. For more information specific to component type settings, see Component Types .

When you redeploy an existing service after adding one or more servers, the following states are displayed in the Resources page:

  • The state of the existing server resources that are part of the service changes from “Deployed” to ‘Deploying”, and then changes to “Deployed” after the deployment is complete.

  • The state of the new server changes from “Available” to “Reserved”. Once the deployment starts, the state changes to “Deploying”. If the deployment is successful, the state changes to “Deployed”. If the deployment is not successful, the state changes to “Error”.
