-
To add a node to the system, set the node status to
online. -
To remove a node from the system, set the node status to
offline.You can use the
offlineoption to stop all applications on the node and move them to other nodes if applicable. The node is not allowed to join the system until the node is brought online using therequest node onlinecommand.Note:We do not recommend leaving the secondary Routing Engine offline for a long period of time, because the secondary Routing Engine is not available as a backup in case something happens to the primary Routing Engine.
When you use the
request node offlinecommand for FPC nodes, the node is powered off. When used for a Routing Engine node, the node just reboots.
