Hi,

    Problem solved by copying the Erlang cookie from Node 1 onto Node 2.
Successfully joined two nodes in a disc cluster.


I createdthe  /etc/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-env.conf with this content:

[{rabbit, [{cluster_nodes, ['rabbit at iuu-app007', 'rabbit at iuu-app008']}]}].

#  rabbitmqctl cluster_status
/etc/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-env.conf: line 1: [{rabbit,: command not found
Cluster status of node 'rabbit at iuu-app008' ...
[{nodes,[{disc,['rabbit at iuu-app008','rabbit at iuu-app007']}]},
 {running_nodes,['rabbit at iuu-app007','rabbit at iuu-app008']}]
...done.

The syntax of the file looks fine to us, and also according to the
documentation. :~(

1) Is the syntax correct?
2) Should the rabbitmq-env.conf be placed on both nodes?

Regards, S.
