when you install vCenter, you'll have an option to do it standalone, or join and existing.  You will need to ensure both are part of the same domain.  Also, you can link up to 10, but you can only manage two linked instances (the first two that are linked).

I would point  you to the documentation set, but the URL appears to be down.
