What is the correct way to silently add the nodes?

You are ready to add two new nodes called RACNODE5 and RACNODE6 to your existing four-node cluster using addNode.sh
You have run cluvfy -peer to check the new nodes against a reference node.
When you originally created the cluster, the network administrators chose to statically define the
scan vip addresses in the corporate DNS server, and you installed the Oracle Grid Infrastructure
without using GNS.

A.
addNode . sh -silent “CLUSTER_NEW_nodes={ RACNODE5, RACNODEg > “

B.
addNode . sh -silent “CLUSTER_NEW_VIRTUAL_HOSTNAMES=<(RACNODES -VI P,
RACNODE6-VIP) “

C.
addNode. sh -silent “CLUSTER_NEW_NODES= { RACNODES, RACNODE6 } ”
“CLUSTER_NEW_VlRTUAL_HOSTNAMES= RACNODE5-VIP, RACNODE6-VI P > “

D.
addNode.sh -silent -responseFile mynewnodea . txt With the response file containing only

E.
CLUSTER_NEW_NODES= {�RACNODE5, RACNODE6�)

F.
addNode.sh -silent -responseFile mynewnodes . txt With the response file containing only
CLUSTER NEW VIRTUAL HOSTNAMES= { ” RACNODE3-VI P , RACNODE4 -VI P >

Explanation:
If you are using Grid Naming Service (GNS):
$ ./addNode.sh -silent “CLUSTER_NEW_NODES={node2}”
If you are not using GNS:
$ ./addNode.sh -silent “CLUSTER_NEW_NODES={node2}” “CLUSTER_NEW_VIRTUAL_
HOSTNAMES={node2-vip}”
Alternatively, you can specify the entries in a response file, where file_name is the name of the
file, and run the addNode.sh script, as follows:
$ addNode.sh -silent -responseFile file_name
When the addNode.sh script completes, a message window displays a list of nodes in the cluster
and root scripts that must be run on those nodes.

A is wrong. if not GNS, you have to add VIP
B is wrong. you have to give parameter cluster_new_nodes
C is right. without GNS, both cluster_new_nodes and cluster_new_virtual_hostnames are needed
D is wrong. only cluster_new_nodes
E is wrong. only cluster_new_virtual_hostnames

So C is correct
