Can't add node to the cockroachde cluster - cockroachdb

Question

I'm staking to join a CockroachDB node to a cluster.
I've created first cluster, then try to join 2nd node to the first node, but 2nd node created new cluster as follows.
Does anyone knows whats are wrong steps on the following my steps, any suggestions are wellcome.
I've started first node as follows:
cockroach start --insecure --advertise-host=163.172.156.111

What is the possibly cause to block to join? Thank you for your suggestion!

Answer 1

It seems you had previously started the second node (the one running on 128.199.127.164) by itself, creating its own cluster.
This can be seen in the error message:
W190511 01:21:14.251763 65 gossip/client.go:122 [n?] failed to start gossip client to 163.172.156.111:26257: initial connection heartbeat failed: rpc error: code = Unknown desc = client cluster ID "a14e89a7-792d-44d3-89af-7037442eacbc" doesn't match server cluster ID "3e797faa-59a1-4b0d-83b5-36143ddbdd69"
To be able to join the cluster, the data directory of the joining node must be empty. You can either delete cockroach-data or specify an alternate directory with --store=/path/to/data-dir
