Can I dynamically add a server to a server farm that is currently running?
ScaleOut Software does self-discovery of servers within a farm so connecting the server to the network and enabling the ScaleOut StateServer service will initiate adding the server to the farm. When a new server is added to the farm, ScaleOut StateServer automatically integrates the server into the store and migrates a portion of the data to it. This technique, called load balancing, controls the amount of data that are stored and managed by each server in the farm. This ensures that each server handles an appropriate portion of the overall workload as determined by its memory capacity and CPU speed. You can specify the total amount of memory on each server to be used for storing data objects.
