▪ DROP NODE: Removes a node from the grid, see Removing a node from a grid. You can include one of the following tasks:
– KEEP: Leaves the server running.
– SHUTDOWN: Shuts down the server. This is the default option.
– RECYCLE: Restarts the server as a new grid node (by using the -x gridnode command line option).
Note The node controller must be active for the RECYCLE option to work, see Node controller.
▪ SET NODE .. OFFLINE: Disconnects a node temporarily from a grid. Before you run this statement, you must disable the Grid Availability Manager (GAM) and leave the GAM disabled for the period that the node is disconnected. If the GAM is active, it will attempt to set the node online again. For more details, see Disconnecting a node from the grid temporarily.
▪ SET NODE .. ONLINE: Reconnects a previously disconnected node back to a grid. After you run this statement, enable the GAM again, see Reconnecting a node to the grid.
Examples
ALTER GRID ADD NODE CONNECT TO 'tcp -i 192.168.34.21 2323'
ALTER GRID ADD NODE NAME node2 CONNECT TO 'tcp 2323':
