Using Cloudera Management Console

You can create additional Compute Clusters beside the default Compute Cluster using Cloudera Management Console.
  1. Navigate to your environment.
  2. Select Compute Clusters tab.
  3. Click Add Compute Cluster.
    The Add Compute Cluster wizard appears.
  4. Provide a Name to the cluster, and optionally a Description.
  5. Click Add Cluster.

    You will be redirected to the Compute Clusters tab, where you can track the creation process of the additional Compute Cluster.

Using CDP CLI

You can use the following CDP CLI command to create additional Compute Clusters after the default Compute Cluster is created:
cdp compute create-cluster
--environment --env-name-or-crn [***ENVIRONMENT NAME OR CRN***] \
--name [***CLUSTER NAME***]
After the command runs, you can verify if the additional Compute Cluster creation was successful using the following command:
cdp compute list-clusters --env-name-or-crn [***ENVIRONMENT NAME OR CRN***]
The additional Compute Cluster status should be in RUNNING state.
