A Server can be added to an existing domain from any Server within that domain.

  • Before configuring a distributed system, be sure to consolidate your Servers into domain.
  • When consolidating the Servers into domain, each Server must have a unique IP address.
  • Only unallocated Servers can be added to domain. Unallocated Servers are the Servers that don't belong to any domain.

There are two ways to add a Server to a domain, depending on whether or not it is present in the search results (in the Unallocated servers group).

If a Server is present in the search results, select it and click the Add to domain button.

The Server will then be added to a domain from the Unallocated servers group.
Since the search for the unallocated Servers is conducted using the broadcast packets, the results may not include Servers located in a different subnetwork (for example, beyond a router that blocks broadcast packets).
In this case, you can add a Server to a domain manually. This option can be used with all unallocated Servers, including those present in the Unallocated servers group.

To add a Server to a domain manually, do the following:

  1. Select the Unallocated servers group (1).


  2. Enter the Server IP address (2).
  3. Enter the Server port (3).

  4. Click the Add to domain button (4).

The Server will then be manually added to a domain.
After a Server is added to a domain using any of the methods described, it will be displayed in the objects tree.

If a Server is not available when it is added to a domain, it will be displayed in the objects tree with the  icon.

The Server will be added to a domain when it becomes available. To undo adding a Server to a domain, select the Server and click the  button.
