Configuration Wizard - Troubleshoot the create a cluster option
Create a cluster is part of setting up a clustered environment.If we encounter a failure during the configuration process, determine whether we can run the step again, skip the step, or if we must clean up the step. For some failed steps, learn how to correct the issue and recover from the failure.
Each potential step in the configuration is included. Since the steps vary, depending on the selections, the steps are not numbered. Find the step that failed to learn more about correcting and recovering from the failure. To change a value entered in the wizard, then run the configuration again.
If we must go through the wizard again, download the wizard selections that you made to save time. Then, cancel the configuration. Start the process over and upload the saved selections. Correct or enter values for the parameters that caused the failure.
Manual Step: Verify the portal node and deployment manager system clocks are within 5 minutes of each other
Manual step errors occur outside the context of the wizard.
Actions Notes Run the step again Not applicable Skip the step If we successfully completed the step before, then skip this step. Clean up step None required
Federate the node
When we federate the node, it becomes a managed node in the dmgr cell.
If this step fails see the addNode.log to determine why the step failed. In most cases, we can correct the error condition and run the step again. We do not have to cancel or reset the configuration steps.
The log is in the /wp_profile/logs directory
Actions Notes Run the step again If the step did not complete successfully during the previous configuration, run it again. Skip the step If we successfully completed the step before, then skip this step. Clean up step Based on where the step failed during the addNode task, we might need to remove the node and run the step again.

Applies to dynamic clusters only.
Actions Notes Run the step again We can run this step repeatedly without causing harm. Skip the step If we successfully completed the step before, then skip this step. Clean up step None required
