16.3 MySQL Cluster Configuration
================================
A MySQL server that is part of a MySQL Cluster differs in only one
respect from a normal (non-clustered) MySQL server, employing the
`NDBCLUSTER') storage engine. This engine is also referred to simply as
`NDB', and the two forms of the name are synonymous.
In order to avoid unnecessary resources allocation, the server is
configured by default with the `NDB' storage engine disabled. To enable
`NDB', you will need to modify the server's `my.cnf' configuration file.
Since the MySQL server is a part of the cluster, it will also need to
know how to access an MGM node in order to obtain the cluster
configuration data. The default behavior is to look for the MGM node on
`localhost'. However, should you need to specify its location
elsewhere, this is can be done in `my.cnf' or on the MySQL server
command line. Before the `NDB' storage engine can be used, at least one
MGM node must be operational, as well as any desired DB nodes.
