3.2.2 Clustering when using Linux installations

To join a new Linux node to an existing cluster:

  1. On a node that exists in a cluster, note the following:

    • The hostname or IP address of the host

    • The cluster join token, which is obtained by executing: sudo cspctl cluster token

  2. On the node that is joining the cluster, execute the following:

    sudo cspctl cluster join -s <hostname> -t <token>

    Note that the hostname and token values were obtained from the existing node in the cluster you are joining (step 1). The process takes 5-15 minutes to complete.
