I'll answer the question by asking one, hopefully...

How did you install slave nodes in the first place?

The usual answer:  Submitted slonik commands STORE NODE, to create the
node, then STORE PATH to establish communications, then start a slon for
the node, then SUBSCRIBE SET to subscribe to some replication set.

Well, those are the steps to install any new node.
