[erlang-questions] How to dynamically add one node to erlang's distrubted application?

[Andrew Stone]

You can start the 4th node and do a net_kernel:connect to one of the other nodes. Just make sure that the cookies are the same on all nodes.

HI:
I have a distrbuted system  using erlang's distributed application mechanism.It firstly ran on 3 nodes with the config file like this:
 
[{kernel,
  [{distributed, [{myapp, 5000, [cp1@REDACTED, {cp2@REDACTED, cp3@REDACTED}]}]},
   {sync_nodes_mandatory, [cp2@REDACTED, cp3@REDACTED]},
   {sync_nodes_timeout, 5000}
  ]
}
].
 
Now I want to  add one more node to  the system  .How can I do this using erlang's distributed applicaiton mechanism? Do I have to edit the config file on all 3 nodes to add the 4th node and restart all of them? 
 
Thanks .
