As long as cluster has quorum:

  • Use remove command to remove node that is down from cluster
  • Manually uninstall DTR if necessary from that node, and make sure everything is OK
  • Use join command

If there has been loss of quorum you'll need to use the restore command. It creates a new DTR from an existing backup.

Also improve backup docs to tell how users can test if a DTR backup has been successful

  • docker/dtr backup
  • tar -tf to list contents of backup and spot for corrupt backup
  • Create new UCP cluster (can be a single node)
  • Restore UCP from a backup to have user data
  • Restore DTR

You might have problems if you restore DTR in different domain from where you created the backup.

We should really be doing this before 2.2.0, but it shouldn't hold up 2.1 GA
