Adding/Removing an HA Group Member
You can add a new member to an HA group at any time using LunaCM, even if your application is running. Cryptographic objects will be replicated on the new partition and operations will be scheduled according to the load-balancing algorithm (see Load Balancing).
Likewise, you can remove a member at any time, and currently-scheduled operations will fail over to the rest of the group members (see Failover).
NOTE If you remove the partition that was used to create the group, the HA group serial number changes to reflect this. This is to prevent another HA group from being assigned the same serial number as the original. If your application queries the HA group serial number, it must redirect operations to the new serial.
Prerequisites
The new member partition must:
>be assigned to the client and visible in LunaCM
>be initialized with the same domain string/red domain PED key as the other partitions in the group
>have the Crypto Officer role initialized with the same credentials as the other partitions in the group
>be activated and have auto-activation enabled (PED-authenticated)
To add an HA group member
1.Open LunaCM on the client workstation and ensure that the new partition is visible.

2.Add the new partition to the HA group by specifying either the slot or the serial number (hagroup addmember). You are prompted for the Crypto Officer password/challenge secret.
lunacm:> hagroup addmember -group <label> {-slot <slotnum> | -serial <serialnum>}
lunacm:> hagroup addmember -group myHAgroup -slot 2

Please use the command "ha synchronize" when you are ready
to replicate data between all members of the HA group.
(If you have additional members to add, you may wish to wait
until you have added them before synchronizing to save time by
avoiding multiple synchronizations.)

To remove an HA group member
1.Remove the partition from the group by specifying either the slot or the serial number (hagroup removemember).
lunacm:> hagroup removemember -group <label> {-slot <slotnum> | -serial <serialnum>}
lunacm:> hagroup removemember -group myHAgroup -slot 0
Member 154438865287 successfully removed from group myHAgroup.
Note: Serial number for the group changed to 11238700701509.
Command Result : No Error
NOTE If you remove the partition that was used to create the group, the HA group serial number changes to reflect this. This is to prevent another HA group from being assigned the same serial number as the original. If your application queries the HA group serial number, it must redirect operations to the new serial.
