APIC3 cannot join APIC cluster

[JlassiAhmed0345]

Hi all , 

i have configured a new Fabric ACI with cluster 3 APIC , but after few minutes i find that i  configured the APIC3 with a bab management IP , so i decided to wipe APIC3 in order to correct the IP management .  I reconfigured the APIC3 and i fixed  the problem of IP management , but i think that i did some wrong configuration during the setup of APIC3 , because APIC3 cannot join to the cluster , otherwise i cannot access to it via console a cause of the authentication fail .

my question is there a possibility to wipe again the APIC3 , in order to reconfigured again ?

Hi there,

first you need to confirm if APIC 3 is configured with the correct parameters:

Fields must match across the apics

Fabric name

Fabric ID

Number of controllers

clusterID

TEP IP

Infra Vlan

use this command to show these outputs on the 3 APICs

cat /data/data_admin/sam_exported.config
