Adding nodes to a cluster
Help | Content Gateway | Version 7.8.x
Content Gateway detects new Content Gateway nodes on your network and adds them to the cluster, propagating the latest configuration information to the newcomer. This provides a convenient way to bootstrap new machines.
To connect a node to a Content Gateway cluster, you need only install Content Gateway software on the new node, making sure during the process that the cluster name and port assignments are the same as those of the existing cluster. In this way, Content Gateway automatically recognizes the new node.
