# Add Additional Nodes to the Instance

## About this task

To convert a Pre-Provisioned server into a fully provisioned node, and to make it part of an existing instance, the Add Node action is used, from the context of the Instance to which it is desired to be added.

Once an instance is created with the first converted node, you can add other imported servers to the same instance:

## Procedure

1. Navigate to Provisioning > Instances.
2. Select the newly created instance.
3. Click Add Node. ![Add node action](https://support.hpe.com/hpesc/public/api/document/sd00007732en_us/GUID-E34393DB-6064-4C8B-B3CA-6AC91E7546D5-high.png)
4. Select Pre-Provisioned.
5. Choose the imported server and provide the required details.
