Adding a Server to the Server Farm

You can expand the scale of your server farm by adding servers. Add a server to the server farm by doing the following:

1. Install either Microsoft Office SharePoint Portal Server 2003 or the document management component of SharePoint Portal Server on the server that you want to add.
2. On the server that you want to add, connect to the configuration database for the server farm. For more information, see Specifying Configuration Database Settings.
3. On the server that you want to add, configure the component assignments for the component or components that you want on that server. For more information, see Changing Component Assignments for the Server Farm.
