In case you're readding a node after hardware failure, you can use

re-adding it.
-The ``-g`` is used to add the new node into a specific node group,

+The ``--force-join`` option is to proceed with adding a node even if it already

+The command performs some operations that change the state of the master

Example::
ADD-TAGS
~~~~~~~~
-**add-tags** [--from *file*] {*nodename*} {*tag*...}
+**add-tags** [\--from *file*] {*nodename*} {*tag*...}
Add tags to the given node. If any of the tags contains invalid
characters, the entire operation will abort.

+``--primary-only`` is given, only primary instances are evacuated, with
+``--secondary-only`` only secondaries. If neither is given, all
+instances are evacuated. It works only for instances having a drbd disk
+template.
The new location for the instances can be specified in two ways:
-- as a single node for all instances, via the ``--new-secondary``
+- as a single node for all instances, via the ``-n (--new-secondary)``
option
-- or via the ``--iallocator`` option, giving a script name as

parameter, so each instance will be in turn placed on the (per the
script) optimal node

The ``--early-release`` changes the code so that the old storage on
node being evacuated is removed early (before the resync is
completed) and the internal Ganeti locks are also released for both

potential recovery).
+Note that this command is equivalent to using per-instance commands for
+each affected instance individually:
+
+- ``--primary-only`` is equivalent to ``gnt-instance
+ failover/migration`` for non-DRBD instances, but for DRBD instances
+ it's different, and usually is a slow process (it will change the
+ primary to another node while keeping the secondary, this requiring
+ data copies, whereas failover/migrate will only toggle the
+ primary/secondary roles, a fast process)
+- ``--secondary-only`` is equivalent to ``gnt-instance replace-disks``

+LIST-DRBD
+~~~~~~~~~
+
+**list-drbd** [\--no-headers] [\--separator=*SEPARATOR*] node
+
+Lists the mapping of DRBD minors for a given node. This outputs a static

+``Node``
+ The (full) name of the node we are querying
+``Minor``
+ The DRBD minor
+``Instance``
+ The instance the DRBD minor belongs to
+``Disk``
+ The disk index that the DRBD minor belongs to
+``Role``
+ Either ``primary`` or ``secondary``, denoting the role of the node for
+ the instance (note: this is not the live status of the DRBD device,
+ but the configuration value)
+``PeerNode``
+ The node that the minor is connected to on the other end
+
+This command can be used as a reverse lookup (from node and minor) to a
+given instance, which can be useful when debugging DRBD issues.
+
+Note that this command queries Ganeti via :manpage:`ganeti-confd(8)`, so
+it won't be available if support for ``confd`` has not been enabled at

This command will migrate all instances having the given node as
primary to their secondary nodes. This works only for instances
having a drbd disk template.
As for the **gnt-instance migrate** command, the options
-``--no-live`` and ``--migration-mode`` can be given to influence

+POWER
+~~~~~

+**power** [``--force``] [``--ignore-status``] [``--all``]
+[``--power-delay``] on|off|cycle|status [*nodes*]
+
+This command calls out to out-of-band management to change the power
+state of given node. With ``status`` you get the power status as reported
+by the out-of-band managment script.
+
+Note that this command will only work if the out-of-band functionality
+is configured and enabled on the cluster. If this is not the case,
+please use the **powercycle** command above.
+
+Using ``--force`` you skip the confirmation to do the operation.
+Currently this only has effect on ``off`` and ``cycle``. On those two
+you can *not* operate on the master. However, the command will provide
+you with the command to invoke to operate on the master nerver-mind.
+This is considered harmful and Ganeti does not support the use of it.
+
+Providing ``--ignore-status`` will ignore the offline=N state of a node
+and continue with power off.
+
+``--power-delay`` specifies the time in seconds (factions allowed)
+waited between powering on the next node. This is by default 2 seconds
+but can increased if needed with this option.
+
+*nodes* are optional. If not provided it will call out for every node in

+specific and ``status`` can be one of ``OK``, ``WARNING``, ``CRITICAL`` or
+``UNKNOWN``. Items with status ``WARNING`` or ``CRITICAL`` are logged and
