Install Remaining SQL Server Cluster Nodes - SQL-FineBuild/Common GitHub Wiki

Previous Install First SQL Server Cluster Node	Install Additional SQL Server Clusters Next

Adding nodes to an existing cluster is less work than creating the first node.

The primary node of the cluster must be active in order to add a SQL Server node to the cluster.

1. Log on to the new cluster node

   You must useg an account that is a member of the local Administrators group and which has domain Account Operator rights.

2. Complete all the non-automated processes described in Cluster Install Preparation.

   The automated portions of Preparatory Tasks will be performed by SQL FineBuild.

3. Add the new node to the SQL cluster

   You should run exactly the same process you used to install the first cluster node, but change the /Server: parameter to reflect the current node. SQL FineBuild will work out what parameters need to be used with the Microsoft SQL Installer.

4. Complete the Residual Interactive Tasks given for Main Instance Server Build.
