sp_addengine includes the instance_id parameter to add an engine or engine group to a specific instance. The syntax is:
sp_addengine engine_number, engine_group [, instance_id]
Where instance_id is the id of the instance to which you are adding an engine or engine group. For example, this adds engine number 5 to instance id 8:
sp_addengine 5, 8
If sp_cluster set system_view is set to cluster, you can add an engine or engine group to any instance in the cluster. If system_view is set to instance, you can add and engine or engine group only to a local instance.
