Dell Storage with Microsoft Storage Spaces Deployment Guide

Adding new servers to an existing cluster

  1. Ensure that the server being added is supported by reading through the Dell Storage with Microsoft Storage Spaces Support Matrix .
  2. Ensure that adding the new server results in a valid and supported configuration by reading through the supported configurations in the Dell Storage with Microsoft Storage Spaces Support Matrix .
  3. Install the server into the rack following the guidelines in the server owner’s manual.
  4. Read through the Dell Storage with Microsoft Storage Spaces Cabling Guide to determine the quantity of new SAS host bus adapters and SAS cables required.
  5. Install the new SAS host bus adapters in the existing and new cluster servers. For existing nodes in the cluster, install the new SAS host bus adapters in one node at a time. Pause cluster services on the node and take the node offline. Ensure to reassign the current vote to the other server in Failover Cluster Manager , prior to turning off the node. After installing the SAS host bus adapters, turn on the node and resume cluster services, by unpausing and reassigning the current vote back to the initial server node Failover Cluster Manager, for the node.
  6. Ensure all roles and cluster resources have been distributed to the original owning nodes.
  7. Ensure all the new and existing SAS host bus adapters are cabled according to the Dell Storage with Microsoft Storage Spaces Support Matrix .
    • NOTE: If this step is performed as an online expansion, when updating the existing cabling and to ensure data path availability to existing enclosures, always ensure that there is at least one SAS path available to the existing storage enclosures.
  8. Cable the network interfaces, in the new server, according to the networking guidelines in the Dell Storage with Microsoft Storage Spaces Deployment Guide .
  9. Turn on the new server and configure it following the steps described in the Dell Storage with Microsoft Storage Spaces Deployment Guide .
  10. Update all component firmware and drivers in the new server to the latest supported versions listed in the Dell Storage with Microsoft Storage Spaces Support Matrix.
  11. Add the new server to the existing cluster.
  12. Ensure that the new server can see all attached storage enclosures and physical disks.
  13. For Scale-Out File Server solutions, rebalance the ownership of existing cluster shared volumes so that they are distributed evenly across all nodes in the cluster.
  14. For Converged solutions, rebalance the existing cluster shared volumes and virtual machines as required.
