To Add a GlassFish Server Instance to a Cluster

GlassFish Server instances form the basis of an application deployment. A clustered instance is a member of a cluster. Each instance belongs to a single domain and has its own directory structure, configuration, and deployed applications. Each instance also includes the Java Platform, Enterprise Edition (Java EE) web container and Enterprise JavaBeans technology (EJB technology) container. Every new instance must contain a reference to a node that defines the host where the instance will reside.


Note:

To create an instance on a node of type CONFIG that represents a remote host, you must use the create-local-instance(1) subcommand. You cannot use the Administration Console for this purpose.
