This is the first node in the cluster showing the size as three. I usually do not struggle getting something to work on a server. I wanted to get a MariaDB 10.1 cluster going for development purposes and to learn more about clusters. I started following documentation on CentOs7 for about 2 weeks and then gave up. Then I switched to Ubuntu and struggled for another two weeks. then this morning I got my three node cluster working. I basically took parts of my CentOs 7 knowledge and combined it with the Ubuntu knowledge. Getting the first node up on Ubuntu was easy, I never got it working on CentOs 7. Getting the other two nodes to join the cluster was hard. Today I decided to copy the main cluster config to the other nodes and started MariaDB and they joined. Now I can move on and start my Udemy classes BTW, I have been working on this project instead of drawing in the morning and evening before and after work.
