-sernum enclosure_serial_number
The serial number of the control enclosure you want to add.

Description

Use this command to add a control enclosure to the system.
Note: Transparent cloud tiering can be enabled on a system if every node on the system supports it. If a system supports transparent cloud tiering, you cannot add nodes that do not support it to the system.

Compressed or thin-deduplicated volumes can be added only to systems in which all nodes support deduplicated volumes. You can add only nodes that support deduplicated volumes to a system that contains compressed or thin deduplicated volumes. Nodes can be added only to a system that contains compressed or thin deduplicated volumes if that new node can support the amount of memory that is allocated for data deduplication in the target I/O group.

An invocation example

addcontrolenclosure -iogrp 0 -sernum 2361443

The following output is displayed:

Enclosure containing Node, id [x], successfully added
