The tarantella array join command

Syntax

Skip past command syntax or program codetarantella array join [ --primary pserv ]
                      [ --secondary sserv ]

Description

Adds a server to an array of Secure Global Desktop servers, either as a primary or a secondary server.

Option Description
--primary pserv Specifies the peer DNS name of the primary server in the array. Defaults to the server on which the command is run.
--secondary sserv Specifies the peer DNS name of the server to add. The sserv must be the only member of an array (a "standalone" server). Defaults to the server on which the command is run.

You can only add one secondary server at a time.

Note After running this command, it is advisable to wait until Secure Global Desktop has copied the changes to all array members before running any further tarantella array commands. This is complete when the tarantella status command returns the same result for each array member.

If the server you add has been load balancing application servers using Advanced Load Management, we recommend that you do a warm restart (tarantella restart --warm) of the new server after it has joined the array. If the array to which the new server is joined is using Advanced Load Management, we recommend you do a warm restart of the whole array after the new server has joined.

If you are using secure intra-array communication, you will be prompted to accept the CA certificate of either the primary server or the secondary server depending on where you ran the command.
