PowerFlex system.
Prerequisites
Ensure that the new nodes meet the requirements listed in "Deployment checklist-Linux"
Prepare new nodes that are based on SLES, Oracle Linux and Ubuntu as described in the "Preparation for deployment" section
For new Fine Granularity Storage Pool hosts, prepare their NVDIMMs as DAX devices, as described in the "Preparation for deployment" section
Ensure that you have the CSV file that was used to deploy the existing
PowerFlex system.
The secure communication mode of components must match the mode of the system to which the components are being added. If they do not match, you must either change the mode of the components to be added, or change the mode of the system so that they match.
