spanning multiple machines and manage them with the help of the node agent
process on each machine. In this guide, for simplicity, our sample cluster will be on
one host, the same one where the Domain Administration Server is running.
You must have already started the node agent process on each machine, as described
in previous section. When you specify instances during cluster creation, you must
associate the instance with a running node agent for the machine on which you want
the instance to run. If the node agent is not running, the instance will not start. Node
agent and instance names must be unique across clusters that are created in a domain.
1. Log in to the Administration Console at https:// localhost:4849 if you have
not already done so.
Replace the localhost variable with the name of the system that the Domain
Administration Server is running on.
4849 is the Admin Console’s default port number. If you changed the port number
during the installation, use that number instead.
2. On the right pane, under Common Tasks, click Create New Cluster to display
the Create Cluster input page.
3. Type FirstCluster as the name of the new cluster.
4. From the drop-down list of available configuration templates, select the
default-config configuration and choose Make a copy of the selected
Configuration.
5. Click the Add button twice, to create two entries to specify two instances for the
cluster.
6. Type i1 and i2 as instance names. The node agent name is automatically
populated with the name of the local machine.
