[<CommonParameters>] Description
The Add-AdfsFarmNode cmdlet adds this computer to an existing federation server farm.
Examples
Example 1: Add a farm node
PS C:\> $fscredential = Get-Credential
PS C:\> Add-AdfsFarmNode -ServiceAccountCredential $fscredential -SQLConnectionString "Data Source=SQLHost;Integrated Security=True"This example adds the local server computer as a node in an existing federation server farm that uses a Microsoft SQL Server database installed on a computer named SQLHost.
Example 2: Add a farm node and overwrite the existing configuration
PS C:\> $fscredential = Get-Credential
PS C:\> Add-AdfsFarmNode -OverwriteConfiguration -PrimaryComputerName "PrimaryWIDHost" -PrimaryComputerPort 80 -ServiceAccountCredential $fscredential -CertificateThumbprint "8169c52b4ec6e77eb2ae17f028fe5da4e35c0bed"This example overwrites an existing AD FS configuration database and adds the local server computer as a node in an existing federation server farm that uses Windows Internal Database (WID) and whose primary node is installed on a computer named PrimaryWIDHost.
Note that the PrimaryComputerPort is required even if the default HTTP port of 80 is used and that the CertificateThumbprint parameter is only required if it is not already configured as a binding in IIS. Also, when specifying a value for the CertificateThumbprint parameter, the value you use must specify the thumbprint of a certificate that is currently installed in the local machine My store, and the certificate must be the same certificate that is used as the SSL certificate on the primary node.
