Adding Kafka Broker Node to a Cluster

Add Kafka broker node to a Big Data Service cluster from the cluster list page.

Note

This is option is available for clusters that have profiles other than Kafka Broker selected.
    1. On the Clusters list page, select the cluster that you want to work with. If you need help finding the list page or the cluster, see Listing Clusters in a Compartment.
    2. From the Actions menu (Actions Menu) for the cluster, select Add nodes.
    3. In the Add nodes panel that appears, enter the following details:
      • Node type: Select Kafka broker node.
      • Node shape: This read-only field displays the shape used for the existing worker nodes. This shape is used for all the nodes you add. For information about the shapes, see Understanding Instance Types and Shapes.
      • Block storage per node: This read-only field displays the block storage used for the existing worker nodes. The same amount of storage is used for all the nodes you add.
      • Number of Kafka Broker Nodes: Enter the number of Kafka broker nodes to be added to the cluster. The minimum for a cluster is 1.
      • Cluster admin password: Enter the administration password for the cluster.
    4. Select Add.
  • Use the oci bds instance worker-nodes add command increases the size (scales out) of a cluster by adding worker nodes (data/compute). The added worker nodes have the same shape and amount of attached block storage as other worker nodes in the cluster.
    oci bds instance worker-nodes add --bds-instance-id <bds_instance_id> --cluster-admin-password <cluster_admin_password> --node-type <node_type> --number-of-worker-nodes <number_of_worker_nodes> [OPTIONS]
    [OPTIONS]

  • Use the AddWorkerNodes operation to add worker to Edge nodes to a cluster.
