Federating custom nodes to a deployment manager

You can use the addNode command to federate a custom node into a deployment manager cell. The following instructions guide you through the process of federating and deploying custom nodes.

Before you begin

Before using this procedure, ensure that the following prerequisites are met:

About this task

Federate a custom node so that it can be managed by a deployment manager. Use the addNode command to federate a custom profile into a deployment manager cell. To federate a custom profile, perform the following steps.
Procedure
  1. Go to the bin directory of the custom profile you want to federate. Open a command window and go to one of the following directories (from a command line), depending on platform (where profile_root represents the installation location of the custom profile):
    • For i5/OS operating system profile_root/bin
    • For Linux operating systemFor UNIX operating system profile_root/bin
    • For Windows operating system profile_root\bin
  2. Issue the addNode command.

    Issue one of the following commands from the command line if security is not enabled:

    • For i5/OS operating system addNode deployment_manager_host deployment_manager_SOAP_port
    • For Linux operating systemFor UNIX operating system ./addNode.sh deployment_manager_host deployment_manager_SOAP_port
    • For Windows operating system addNode.bat deployment_manager_host deployment_manager_SOAP_port
    Issue one of the following commands from the command line if security is enabled:
    • For i5/OS operating system addNode deployment_manager_host deployment_manager_SOAP_port -username userID_for_authentication -password password_for_authentication
    • For Linux operating systemFor UNIX operating system ./addNode.sh deployment_manager_host deployment_manager_SOAP_port -username userID_for_authentication -password password_for_authentication
    • For Windows operating system addNode.bat deployment_manager_host deployment_manager_SOAP_port -username userID_for_authentication -password password_for_authentication
    An output window opens. If you see a message similar to the following message, your custom profile was federated successfully:
    ADMU0003I: Node DMNDID2Node03 has been successfully federated.

Results

The custom profile is federated into the deployment manager. For more information on the addNode command and its parameters, see the topic addNode command in the WebSphere Application Server Network Deployment, version 6.1.x, information center.

What to do next

After federating the custom profile, go to the administrative console of the deployment manager to customize the empty node or to create a new application server.
