Install a Cluster Node for an Orchestrator

Users with PAMAdmins privileges can add additional cluster nodes to an Orchestrator that was installed with a load balancer.

Verify the completion of prerequisites to installing a cluster node for an Orchestrator. Then, install the cluster node. This same procedure is used when upgrading a cluster node to a new release.

Follow these steps:

  1. Log in to the server where you plan to install this cluster node for an additional Orchestrator.
  2. Browse to the Orchestrator to which you want to add the cluster node and log in.
    https://Load-balancer-hostname:8443/itpam
    
    http://Load-balancer-hostname:8080/itpam
    
  3. Click the Configuration tab and click the Installation palette.
  4. Click Install for Install Cluster Node For Orchestrator.
  5. If the digital signature cannot be verified, click Run to start the installation.
  6. On the Third Party Installation screen, click Next.
  7. Accept the license agreement, and click Next.
  8. Specify the destination directory to install the Orchestrator node, and click Next.

    The installer creates the folder automatically if it does not exist.

  9. On the Prerequisites for CA Process Automation Installation screen, click Next.

    A subsequent screen includes the following check box:

    Use Domain

    Specifies whether this cluster node is for the Domain Orchestrator

    Cleared - Specifies this cluster node is not for the Domain Orchestrator.

    On the confirmation screen, click Next.

  10. Click Finish to move on to the CA Process Automation installer.
  11. On the Welcome screen, click Next.
  12. Accept the license agreement, and click Next.
  13. Specify the Java Home Directory. The CA Process Automation installer will have prepopulated this field with the most recent suitable JDK it was able to locate in the path. If needed, browse to the directory where JDK is installed, and click Next.

    The JDK is validated, and the Orchestrator installation begins. This will take a minute or so as files are copied.

  14. Complete the Configuration Screen, and click Next.
    Orchestrator

    Specifies the Orchestrator to which the cluster node is to be added. The Orchestrator selected from the drop down list must be configured with a Public Host Name that specifies the FQDN of the server where the load balancer is installed.

    Load Balancer Worker Node

    Specifies the node name.

    Note: The first installation of the Domain Orchestrator is node1. For the second node, type node2.

    For Apache, this is the name of this node specified in the Apache workers.properties file, where hostname is the name of the host on which you are installing the cluster node:

    worker.node2.host=hostname.mycompany.com

  15. View the Company Name, and click Next.
  16. Enter the same certificate password that was entered during the installation of the Domain Orchestrator, and click Next.
  17. Specify a Start Menu Folder, and click Next.
  18. Enter the General Properties for the Orchestrator, and click Next.

    For more information about each property see Install and Configure the Domain Orchestrator.

  19. View the Security settings, and click Next.
  20. View the database settings, and click Next.
  21. View the Reporting database settings, and click Next to complete the installation.
  22. Click Finish.

    The cluster node for the selected Orchestrator is installed.
