lbcli Create Server

Add a new server to an existing cluster (when you need to replace the existing server). Note: You will need to create a new server first. In order to create a new server, edit the Ansible inventories files (hosts, /host_var/new_server.yaml) and add the new server. Then run the ansible-playbook with the same parameters as before and add the following parameter: --limit:<new_server name>

Example:

Bash
    
 
ansible-playbook -i /tmp/inventory/cluster_example/hosts playbooks/deploy-lightos.yml \    -e new_etcd_member=true \    -e extend_etcd_cluster=true \    --limit <new_server> -vv
Copy

In order to find the new server uuid run the following on the new server: cat /etc/node-manager/node-manager.yaml |grep serverUUID

Example Command

Bash
    
 
lbcli create server --uuid=ad69f2c6-4b9a-5a72-8ff6-daf949ef61b4 --endpoints=https://10.19.117.3:2380
Copy

A -J flag after lbcli indicates that the JWT is not stored in the lbcli configuration file.
