add new data node to existing cluster

[#1]

I need to expand an existing cluster with additional data node. This question had been answered earlier, but the document link is broken. Can anyone resend the link or help answer the question again?

It's paramount that you first go through this check list to prepare your new host to join the cluster. This is to avoid some frustrating errors especially having nonworking nodes in a cluster

This document with screenshots for adding a data node to an existing HDP cluster looks good because the process is straightforward provided you followed the prerequisites.
