Right. Typically, I just create as many instances as I want to use within my
cluster, and use the initial instance just for creating the others (I often
turn it off after that). If you want to add that instance to the cluster,
you can create the other instances, create the cluster, add the other
instances, then open the JRun admin console to add the first instance to the
cluster.

When I know I'm going to set up a cluster, I configure each instance to use
the JRun web server. Then, after I add them to the cluster, I configure the
cluster to connect to an external web server. I continue to use the JRun web
server to access the CF Administrator for each cluster member.
