Adding 3rd Datacenter in OPDK 4.18.05

We're adding a 3rd datacenter which does not include a Management Server. We've gone through the process of adding the Data Stores (cassandra/zookeeper) . We have followed the documentation https://docs.apigee.com/private-cloud/v4.18.05/adding-data-center . We have cassandra running now with 3 data centers. We are trying to register the 3rd data center by using the silent configuration file from the 3rd DC on DC-1's management server. Getting this error trying to run: /opt/apigee/apigee-service/bin/apigee-service edge-management-server apigee-registration-setup -f /opt/apigee/maint/config/Test_USEAST1_silent.cfg parse error: Invalid numeric literal at line 2, column 5 Pods in region dc-3: Error getting pods in region: dc-3 Digging into the apigee-registration-setup action it seems to be failing because DC-3 has not been added yet. Do we have to manually add that before running the apigee-registration-setup?

Hi @Marc Robida, did you try to connect with Apigee Support Portal ?

Yes, we have in the past, but they always push back...and indicate that since it's a 3rd data center we need to follow up with "Customer Success" as consulting engagement. We're "really" close and feel there something small we're missing.

We figured it out. We need to run the apigee-registration-setup after we install the router , message processors, and qpidd nodes. We saw in your doc

“To install regions that do not include a management server you will need to perform an extra step immediately after you finish installing your datastore (Cassandra and Zookeeper) hosts.”

The datacenter DC-3 doesn’t get created until a router/message processor is created.

@Marc Robida, As per the doc, you need to update the existing DCs (DS & MS nodes) with the new DC configuration prior installing the new components but looks like you had already installed new data store nodes prior updating existing management server. Pls check your comment "We have cassandra running now with 3 data centers"? Could you also attach your silent configuration file?

@Marc - Thanks for the question and for tagging me. Maybe @paulmibus or @Rajesh Mishra will be able to answer or to direct you. or maybe @Christin Brown. Unfortunately I will not be able to help.

@Marc Robida @Dino-at-Google: We are in a process to add third Datacenter as a DR . However we are not sure of how the "LDAP_PEER" property in the config. file should be setup so that the LDAP on all 3 LDAP nodes are in sync. Can you please post the config file used by you after masking the sensitive data? Would be a great help.
