Before you begin
Identify the cluster configuration that you want to achieve. For example, if your current cluster has three nodes of 64 GB each and, you wish to scale out to five nodes of 64 GB each, configure the following fields as per the requirements of a five-node cluster:
  • ContextStore ManagerSpace DataGrid Settings
  • ContextStoreSpace DataGrid Settings
  • Context Store DataGrid type
  • EDM: Mirror Service container size
  • GEO: Gateway Service container size
  • EDM: Mirror Service redo log size
  • CS Threshold attributes
Ensure that all your nodes have identical resources, such as CPU, memory, and hard disk. For more information, see Context Store deployment checklist.
  1. Deploy a new Avaya Breeze® platform node with the required CPU and memory configuration.

    ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
    Wait for the nodes to restart completely.
  11. On the Cluster Administration page, verify that the services are installed for the cluster.
  12. Click Show on the new cluster to verify if the system has added the servers to the cluster.
    STEP RESULT:
    The system displays the Avaya Breeze® platform servers as part of the Context Store cluster.
  13. Select the check box of the cluster.
  14. From the Cluster State drop-down menu, select Accept New Service.
