Add a new replica to an existing DTR cluster

Description

This command creates a replica of an existing DTR on a node managed by Docker Universal Control Plane (UCP).

For setting DTR for high-availability, create 3, 5, or 7 replicas of DTR.

Options

Option Environment Variable Description
--debug $DEBUG Enable debug mode for additional logs.
--enzi-ca $ENZI_TLS_CA Use a PEM-encoded TLS CA certificate for Enzi.
--enzi-insecure-tls $ENZI_TLS_INSECURE Disable TLS verification for Enzi.
--existing-replica-id $DTR_REPLICA_ID The ID of an existing DTR replica.To add, remove or modify DTR, you must connect to an existing healthy replica’s database..
--help-extended $DTR_EXTENDED_HELP Display extended help text for a given command.
--replica-http-port $REPLICA_HTTP_PORT The public HTTP port for the DTR replica. Default is 80.This allows you to customize the HTTP port where users can reach DTR. Once users access the HTTP port, they are redirected to use an HTTPS connection, using the port specified with –replica-https-port. This port can also be used for unencrypted health checks.
--replica-https-port $REPLICA_HTTPS_PORT The public HTTPS port for the DTR replica. Default is 443.This allows you to customize the HTTPS port where users can reach DTR. Each replica can use a different port.
--replica-id $DTR_INSTALL_REPLICA_ID Assign an ID to the DTR replica. Random by default.
--skip-network-test $DTR_SKIP_NETWORK_TEST Don’t test if overlay networks are working correctly between UCP nodes.For high-availalibity, DTR creates an overlay network between UCP nodes and tests that it is working when joining replicas. Don’t use this option for production deployments.
--ucp-ca $UCP_CA Use a PEM-encoded TLS CA certificate for UCP.Download the UCP TLS CA certificate from https:// /ca, and use --ucp-ca "$(cat ca.pem)".
--ucp-insecure-tls $UCP_INSECURE_TLS Disable TLS verification for UCP.The installation uses TLS but always trusts the TLS certificate used by UCP, which can lead to man-in-the-middle attacks. For production deployments, use –ucp-ca “$(cat ca.pem)” instead.
--ucp-node $UCP_NODE The hostname of the UCP node to deploy DTR. Random by default.You can find the hostnames of the nodes in the cluster in the UCP web UI, or by running ‘docker node ls’ on a UCP manager node..
--ucp-password $UCP_PASSWORD The UCP administrator password.
--ucp-url $UCP_URL The UCP URL including domain and port.
--ucp-username $UCP_USERNAME The UCP administrator username.
--unsafe-join $DTR_UNSAFE_JOIN Join a new replica even if the cluster is unhealthy.Joining replicas to an unhealthy DTR cluster leads to split-brain scenarios, and data loss. Don’t use this option for production deployments.
