I will do a three node platform cluster.
I created two more dns entries
You can look at the previous sections for deploying a platform node but deploy two more into vCenter and setup them up with the different ips and hostname and X Large.
Login to your platform UI
Go to infrastructure and support under settings and scroll down
Click create cluster
Make sure you have taken a backup

Click I have read this and click confirm.
Enter the ip addresses and password for the two new platform nodes
Click submit
Click yes (can take a while)
Platform nodes have been deployed.
I have disk warnings that we need to add extra 1tb on each platform node
While the vm is powered On, add another disk, don’t expand existing disk
Do this in vCenter and edit settings of vm
Can take about 10 minutes to reflect.
Now the disk space alarm is gone
You can login to the platform node via consoleuser and type ‘disk-usage’
You can see the /var now has 1.8TB
