Doc for cluster registration is wrong

[Nicolas Thomas]

http://maas.ubuntu.com/docs/development/cluster-registration.html

Say to put region manually, looks to work but then RabbitMQ is not connecting.

 sudo dpkg-reconfigure maas-cluster-controller

To the contrary "after answering debconf" works !! ..

Please update

I'm sorry I don't understand which piece of the document is wrong. Could you be more specific than "Say to put region manually"

Thank you.

The piece of doc is the URL provided in the initial bug report

Yes and I can't see which part of it you mean. Can you please be specific.

[Nicolas Thomas (thomnico)]

You should replace this :
Cluster configuration file
This config file generally contains two items like this:

MAAS_URL=http://0.0.0.0:5240/
CLUSTER_UUID="adfd3977-f251-4f2c-8d61-745dbd690bf2"
The values here are the defaults in the development environment. MAAS_URL tells the cluster controller where to find the region controller, and is sourced as a shell script by services/cluster-worker/run.

CLUSTER_UUID is what the region uses to tell clusters apart when they connect. Each cluster is free to generate its own UUID but the development environment fixes it in advance. The Ubuntu packaging generates a new UUID for a cluster controller each time it is installed.

Warning
The format of this config file is very sensitive due to the code that parses it. It will not accept quoting, or any kind of comments.

By:

Configure Cluster:

sudo dpkg-reconfigure maas-cluster-controller

Give the IP or name of the region-controller.

Thank you for replying with the details.

The existing text is meant to be a technical explanation, but adding the packaging shortcut which does the reconfiguration for you would be a nice change, thank you for the suggestion.
