Adding a new node to the cluster

You can add server and agent nodes to the deployment after installation to increase resourcing.

Note: Note we only recommend adding nodes if you are already in a multi-node setup. We do not support a transition from an evaluation profile to a multi-node HA-ready profile.

To add a new node to the cluster, take the following steps:

1. Create or provision a new node, and configure the disks and open ports according to the following: Configuring the machines.
2. Configure the node in the load balancer as follows: Configuring the load balancer.
3. Copy the installer package available at /opt/UiPathAutomationSuite in any of the server nodes.
4. For an online installation, run one of the commands below.

     • for adding a new agent node:

       ./install-uipath.sh -i ./input.json -o ./output.json -k -j agent --accept-license-agreement --install-standalone-aicenter
