Trying to move a RHEL worker node from one cluster to another

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • Cannot add RHEL worker node
  • I removed several worker nodes for this cluster using this solution
  • Then I installed the new cluster and try to add the removed worker nodes to the new cluster. But I get the error:
FAILED - RETRYING: Wait for bootstrap endpoint to show up (60 retries left).
fatal: [prod-node.example.com]: FAILED! => {"attempts": 60, "changed": false, "content": "", "elapsed": 1, "msg": "Status code was -1 and not [200]: Request failed: <urlopen error [Errno 111] Connection refused>", "redirected": false, "status": -1, "url": "https://api-int.ocp.example.com:22623/config/worker"}
  • I tried to add a "fresh" node and it works. The issue is only for nodes previously removed from the different cluster.
