# Add Child Servers with an Action

You can add child servers by using the `EngineManagement` action, with the `EngineAction` parameter set to `EngineAdd`. If you use this method, you must also specify the `EngineHost` and `EnginePort` parameters.

For example:

    action=EngineManagement&EngineAction=EngineAdd&EngineHost=server2&EnginePort=9100

This action adds the new server to the configuration file in either the `[DistributedEngineN]`, `[IDOLServerN]`, or `[DAHEngineN]` section, depending on how the system is set up.
