We created a user named <STRONG>"dynatrace"</STRONG> with root privileges and used it to log in to the cluster nodes and execute the installation on all three nodes.</P><P class="">All nodes have the same <STRONG>UID/GID (1000:1000)</STRONG> for the <STRONG>"dynatrace"</STRONG> user. The first node was installed successfully despite the presence of this user. However, when attempting to install the second node, we encountered the following error:</P><BLOCKQUOTE><P class=""><EM>"The system user 'dynatrace:dynatrace' has an incorrect UID and GID. It is currently set to 1000:1000 but should be 1011:1011."</EM></P></BLOCKQUOTE><P class="">After checking some threads in the community, I found a suggestion to delete the <STRONG>"dynatrace"</STRONG> user on the remaining nodes before proceeding with the installation.</P><P class="">I have the following questions:</P><OL><LI><P class="">If I delete the <STRONG>"dynatrace"</STRONG> user on the remaining two nodes, will I be able to rerun the installation without any issues?</P></LI><LI><P class="">Do I need to make any additional adjustments on the first node, which was installed successfully?</P></LI></OL><P class="">I appreciate any guidance or shared experiences.</P><P class="">Best regards.</P> Tue, 01 Apr 2025 12:55:01 GMT https://community.dynatrace.com/t5/Dynatrace-Managed-Q-A/Error-adding-a-new-node-to-the-cluster-due-to-UID-GID-conflict/m-p/274068#M4221 NicoleMT 2025-04-01T12:55:01Z https://community.dynatrace.com/t5/Dynatrace-Managed-Q-A/Error-adding-a-new-node-to-the-cluster-due-to-UID-GID-conflict/m-p/274071#M4222 <P><span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="Nicky2311_0-1743512178799.png" style="width: 400px;"><img src="https://community.dynatrace.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/27321iEBE04AA733F855BA/image-size/medium?v=v2&amp;px=400" role="button" title="Nicky2311_0-1743512178799.png" alt="Nicky2311_0-1743512178799.png" /></span></P><P>&nbsp;</P> Tue, 01 Apr 2025 12:56:25 GMT https://community.dynatrace.com/t5/Dynatrace-Managed-Q-A/Error-adding-a-new-node-to-the-cluster-due-to-UID-GID-conflict/m-p/274071#M4222 NicoleMT 2025-04-01T12:56:25Z https://community.dynatrace.com/t5/Dynatrace-Managed-Q-A/Error-adding-a-new-node-to-the-cluster-due-to-UID-GID-conflict/m-p/276619#M4251 <P>Hello,</P><P><SPAN class="">System users created for Dynatrace Managed must have the same UID:GID identifiers on all nodes, so check the&nbsp;UID:GID assigned for the first node, and assign the same to the second and third node.
