Define Clusters

Use this page to specify the number of cluster members for the deployment environment.

The table displays the nodes you included in the deployment environment and allows you to specify the layout of cluster members within the deployment environment.

If you do not want a node to include a specific cluster function, you can set the value for that function to zero 0. However, the default value is 1.

Each deployment environment pattern defines cluster types that provide specific functions in the environment. The options that are available on this page depend on the deployment environment pattern that you selected.

If you selected the Application, Remote Messaging, and Remote Support pattern, you define the following functions:
Node
Displays the node name.
Version
Displays the version.
Application Deployment Target
Specifies how many cluster members on this node must be configured for this function. By default this number is set to one (1) but you can set this higher if you require additional processing resources. Keep in mind that each node generates a virtual machine that will use up resources.
Messaging Infrastructure
Specifies how many cluster members on this node must be configured for this function. By default this number is set to one (1) but you can set this higher if you require additional processing resources. Keep in mind that each node generates a virtual machine that will use up resources.
Supporting Infrastructure
Specifies how many cluster members on this node must be configured for this function. By default this number is set to one (1) but you can set this higher if you require additional processing resources. Keep in mind that each node generates a virtual machine that will use up resources.
If you selected the Single Cluster pattern, you define the following functions:
Node
Displays the node name.
Version
Displays the version.
Application Deployment Target
Specifies how many cluster members on this node must be configured for this function. By default this number is set to one (1) but you can set this higher if you require additional processing resources. Keep in mind that each node generates a virtual machine that will use up resources.
