Description
The join
operation connects a server machine to an existing site. This is considered a "push" mechanism, in which a server machine pushes its configuration to the site. For the operation to be successful, you need to provide an account with administrative privileges to the site.
When an attempt is made to join a site, the site validates the administrative credentials, then returns connection information about its configuration store back to the server machine. The server machine then uses the connection information to work with the configuration store. If this is the first server machine in your site, use the Create Site operation instead.
