Function

This API is used to add nodes for a specified cluster instance.

Constraints

  • Only the mongos and shard nodes can be added.
  • The specifications of the new node must be the same as those of the existing nodes in the instance.

    The specification series includes general-purpose (s6), enhanced (c3), and enhanced II (c6).

    Example:
    • dds.mongodb.s6.large.4.mongos and dds.mongodb.s6.medium.4.mongos have the same specifications.
    • dds.mongodb.s6.large.4.mongos and dds.mongodb.c3.large.4.mongos are not of the same specifications.
