Perform the following procedure to add a minion node to a Carbon Black EDR containerized cluster. This step is different from a standard Carbon Black EDR distribution, where adding a node simultaneously installs the product and configures it.

Prerequisites

You will need the minion installation password for each minion that you set up during the Install a Cluster Minion Node step. For example:

Minion ID IP Address Password
1 192.168.23.15 3kX6wrzp1q3rl
2 192.168.23.34 LdsqXTHjHhcqR

Procedure

  1. Stop the cluster: on the primary node, run ./edr-docker stop.
  2. Run edr-docker cluster add-node.
    [root@localhost edr]# ./edr-docker cluster add-node
    What is the hostname or IP of the remote node: 172.16.254.12
     
    ================ CONNECT TO REMOTE NODE(s) =============
     
    Connecting to 172.16.254.12...
    Root’s password:
    
  3. Start the cluster: on the primary node, run ./edr-docker start.
