My "master" is node1 which in vm.args as the node name of riak@10.79.108.25. So from the "master" (riak@10.79.108.25) I issue the command 'sudo riak-admin cluster join riak@10.79.108.15' (essentially joining to itself) I get:
[azureuser@bsicentos1 ~]$ sudo riak-admin cluster join riak@10.79.108.25 [sudo] password for azureuser: Attempting to restart script through sudo -H -u riak Join failed. Try again in a few moments. To make sure the "master" is indeed the name I thought [azureuser@bsicentos1 ~]$ head /etc/riak/vm.args ## Name of the riak node -name riak@10.79.108.25 It doesn't seem that you can join a node to itself. -----Original Message----- From: Shane McEwan [mailto:sh...@mcewan.id.au] Sent: Wednesday, December 12, 2012 9:26 AM To: Kevin Burton Cc: riak-users@lists.basho.com Subject: Re: Cluster setup The join command needs to be given a node name and IP of a machine already in the cluster. So if you have machines: riak@10.79.110.52 riak@10.79.108.25 riak@10.79.90.11 Then pick one to be the "master" (e.g. riak@10.79.110.52) and on the other two machines run: sudo riak-admin cluster join riak@10.79.110.52 (Notice that you give the name and IP of the "master" node, not the name and IP of the machine you're running the command on.) Then back on the master run the "plan" and "commit" commands.
