Hey i am trying to create a Cluster with 2 hardware devices. I have a Docker Container running on each device with a Couchbase Server. I am not allowed to use “–net=host” because of security reasons.
Both devices are on the same network. After setting up the Cluster on Device A, i tried joining the Cluster with Device B, using the IP-Address of Device A. I can find Device A, since i get an error, if the password is incorrect. After finding Device A, Device B tries to connect to its own internal IP-Address of the Docker-Container. I already tried using external IP-Address for Device A but i get the same problem.
It works fine with setting “–net=host”, so there should be a way to get this working right? Anyone got some ideas, why Device B is using the internal IP-Address instead of the external IP-Address from Device A? I openend all the necessary Ports on both devices and there is no firewall at all.
Hi @Maxkii
When you create a cluster or add a node to one, on that UI screen you can set the hostname of the node being added. I think if you set this to the external IP that will help.
These docs may be useful also.
