Hi,

Have you found more details in “/var/log/dynatrace/install.log”?

Best regards

Hello.

Maybe you need restart Node2 (in cmc you can see Ip address/node number). After restart(~15-20 minutes) of node 2 you can try again to run installation script on new node.&nbsp; I would start with that.

Check CMC console - Node2 is healthy? Is there any messages/issues on UI in CMC?

Check cassandra status: “ **UN** for every node” ( **U** p **N** ormal) - expected:

| /opt/dynatrace-managed/utils/cassandra-nodetool.sh status |
| --- |

Check elastic status: “green” expected

| curl -s -N -XGET ‘[http://localhost:9200/\_cluster/health?pretty](http://localhost:9200/_cluster/health?pretty)’ | grep status |
| --- |

How many nodes in cluster? When was the last node added?

Regards,

Alex Romanenkov

The cmc cannot view any information about the second node because it cannot be successfully installed.

Thank you very much. I went to have a look, but because of my experience, I don’t know what the problem is. Could you spare some time to have a look

Hello&nbsp;[@Lwl](https://community.dynatrace.com/user/63531)

I had gone through your logs but it seems the provided log file does not have complete information.

- Did you configure and verify the proxy to connect to the mission control?

> **[Customize Managed Cluster installation](https://docs.dynatrace.com/managed/managed-cluster/installation/customize-managed-cluster-install)**
>
> Use command line parameters to customize or automate a Managed Cluster installation, with options for datastores, system users, and SSL certificates.

- Did you try to disable the SELinux before the installation?

> **[Configure SELinux](https://docs.dynatrace.com/managed/managed-cluster/installation/selinux)**
>
> Configure Dynatrace Managed to run on a system with SELinux enabled in enforcing mode, or disable SELinux on your host.

- Do you see the&nbsp;--seed-ip \<ip\> address in the installer script?

Regards,

Babar

Exactly - check what [@Babar\_Qayyum](https://community.dynatrace.com/user/22017)&nbsp; writes about.  
You need to solve two errors that is the connection to Mission Control and SELinux

I may not be able to describe it clearly, but my main goal is to add a new node, and the process is as detailed as possible,

Hello&nbsp;[@Lwl](https://community.dynatrace.com/user/63531)

Please run the **--system-check** &nbsp;(_Use this parameter to check if the machine and operating system fulfills the requirements of the new version_.) on the new node e.g.&nbsp;[root@localhost]# **./dynatrace-managed-installer.sh --system-check** and share the results.

Thank you very much for your reply. The problem has been solved for the time being. I don’t know how the installation succeeded.

Hello&nbsp;[@Lwl](https://community.dynatrace.com/user/63531)

Nice to hear. It would be better if you could know the actual fix, so it could be beneficial for you in the future expansion of the cluster.
