mkdir -p /sf/etc/mnode/mnode-archive
2. Download the management services bundle (version 2.15.28 or later) that was previously installed on the
existing management node and save it in the /sf/etc/mnode/ directory.
3. Extract the downloaded bundle using the following command, replacing the value in [ ] brackets (including
the brackets) with the name of the bundle file:
tar -C /sf/etc/mnode -xvf /sf/etc/mnode/[management services bundle
file]
4.
Extract the resulting file to the /sf/etc/mnode-archive directory:
tar -C /sf/etc/mnode/mnode-archive -xvf
/sf/etc/mnode/services_deploy_bundle.tar.gz
5. Create a configuration file for accounts and volumes:
echo '{"trident": true, "mvip": "[mvip IP address]", "account_name":
"[persistent volume account name]"}' | sudo tee /sf/etc/mnode/mnode-
archive/management-services-metadata.json
a. Replace the value in [ ] brackets (including the brackets) for each of the following required parameters:
▪ [mvip IP address]: The management virtual IP address of the storage cluster. Configure the
management node with the same storage cluster that you used during NTP servers configuration.
▪ [persistent volume account name]: The name of the account associated with all persistent
volumes in this storage cluster.
6. Configure and run the management node redeploy command to connect to persistent volumes hosted on
the cluster and start services with previous management node configuration data:

You will be prompted to enter passwords in a secure prompt. If your cluster is behind a
proxy server, you must configure the proxy settings so you can reach a public network.
/sf/packages/mnode/redeploy-mnode --mnode_admin_user [username]
a. Replace the value in [ ] brackets (including the brackets) with the user name for the management node
administrator account. This is likely to be the username for the user account you used to log into the
management node.

You can add the user name or allow the script to prompt you for the information.
