Add vsphere host

Hi,
in past we've had a XenServer cluster in Cloudstack and adding a node was
quite simple.
Now we're managing a 2 node vSphere cluster and we need to add an
additional host to this cluster.
In the documentation I see:

Adding a Host (vSphere)
<https://docs.cloudstack.apache.org/en/latest/installguide/configuration.html#adding-a-host-vsphere>

For vSphere servers, we recommend creating the cluster of hosts in vCenter
and then adding the entire cluster to CloudStack. See Add Cluster: vSphere.


So what?

Someone can explain me how to add an host to vsphere/cloudstack cluster?


Thank you

Hi Alessandro,

When the vCenter cluster is added to CloudStack, all the hosts in that cluster are auto discovered and added. If any host is added to the vCenter cluster after creating the cluster in CloudStack, you can add that host from the UI or addHost API/cmk.


Regards,
Suresh
