Redis Software

Adds a node to an existing cluster.

rladmin cluster join
        nodes <node IP address>
        { username <admin user email> password <admin password>
          | client_cert <path> client_key <path> [ trusted_ca <path> ] }
        [ ephemeral_path <path> ]
        [ persistent_path <path> ]
        [ ccs_persistent_path <path> ]
        [ rack_id <node rack ID> ]
        [ second_rack_id <node's second rack ID> ]
        [ override_rack_id ]
        [ replace_node <node UID> ]
        [ flash_enabled ]
        [ flash_path <path> ]
        [ addr <IP.address> ]
        [ external_addr <IP.address.1> [<IP.address.2> ... <IP.address.N>] ]
        [ override_repair ]
        [ accept_servers { enabled | disabled } ]
        [ cnm_http_port <port> ]

Parameters

Parameter Type/Value Description
accept_servers 'enabled'
'disabled'
Allows allocation of resources on the new node when enabled (optional)
addr IP address Sets a node's internal IP address. If not provided, the node sets the address automatically. (optional)
ccs_persistent_path filepath (default: /var/opt/redislabs/persist) Path to the CCS snapshot location (the default is the same as persistent_path) (optional)
client_cert filepath Path to a file containing the client certificate in PEM format. Use either a username and password or certificate credentials to join a node. Required with client_key. See Certificate-based authentication for cluster management.
client_key filepath Path to a file containing the client certificate's private key in PEM format. Required with client_cert.
cnm_http_port integer Joins a cluster that has a non-default cnm_http_port (optional)
ephemeral_path filepath Path to the ephemeral storage location (optional)
external_addr list of IP addresses Sets a node's external IP addresses (space-delimited list). If not provided, the node sets the address automatically. (optional)
flash_enabled Enables flash capabilities for a database (optional)
flash_path filepath (default: /var/opt/redislabs/flash) Path to the flash storage location in case the node does not support CAPI (required if flash_enabled)
nodes IP address Internal IP address of an existing node in the cluster
override_rack_id Changes to a new rack, specified by rack_id (optional)
override_repair Enables joining a cluster with a dead node (optional)
password string Admin user's password. Required unless you use certificate credentials.
persistent_path filepath (default: /var/opt/redislabs/persist) Path to the persistent storage location (optional)
rack_id string Moves the node to the specified rack (optional)
replace_node integer Replaces the specified node with the new node (optional)
second_rack_id string The unique identifier of the node's second rack ID for two-dimensional rack awareness (optional)
trusted_ca filepath Path to a file containing the CA that validates the API certificate the cluster presents, in PEM format. If you omit it, the node uses the certificates in the cluster's mtls_trusted_ca.pem file. (optional)
username email address Admin user's email address. Required unless you use certificate credentials.

Returns

Returns ok if the node joined the cluster successfully. Otherwise, it returns an error message.

Example

$ rladmin cluster join nodes 192.0.2.2 \
        username [email protected] \
        password admin-password
Joining cluster... ok

To join a node using certificate credentials instead of a username and password, pass the file paths to the certificate, key, and CA:

$ rladmin cluster join nodes 192.0.2.2 \
        client_cert /etc/opt/redislabs/client.pem \
        client_key /etc/opt/redislabs/client.key \
        trusted_ca /etc/opt/redislabs/ca.pem
Joining cluster... ok
