Syntax

 addcontrolenclosure     -iogrp  io_grp_id_or_name     -sernum  enclosure_serial_number  [  -site  {  site_name  |  site_id  } ]

Parameters

-iogrp io_grp_id_or_name
The I/O group in which you want to put the control enclosure.
-sernum enclosure_serial_number
The serial number of the control enclosure you want to add.
-sitesite_name | site_id
(Optional) Specifies the numeric site value or site name of the new control enclosure. The site can be set to a value of 1 or 2 only.
Note: The site that is assigned to a control enclosure cannot be changed if the topology is hyperswap.

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.
