The New Node dialog displays.

In the Name field type a name.

-
Select a host from the Host drop-down list.
Only hosts associated with the environment are visible. If there are unavailable hosts, they can be viewed by clicking the Unavailable hosts link. -

Optionally add one or more of the features available to the Administrator server.
In most cases you can skip this step since Administrator automatically adds features to a node when required. For example, deploying an application or installing a resource instance. In rare cases, you may have to add features to a node explicitly if the features is from the shared library. The explicit addition of features to a node can be done during and after node creation, and during installation of application or application running. -
Click Save. The node is added to the Nodes list with a Runtime State of Not installed
