We have a self-hosted gateway on Azure VM as per this model: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/securing-the-connection-between-power-bi-and-azure-sql-databa...
We want to add another node to the cluster. This can apparently be done easily using the installation UI by checking this box:
We have automated our gateway install using the Powershell scripts. There are many blogs describing this, one is: https://rukiatu.com/automate-power-bi-gateway-installation-and-configuration/
However there doesn't seem to be a way to "tick that checkbox" via the powershell scripts.
Question is: is there a way to automate adding a second gateway node into a cluster?
We added the new gateway to the cluster manually in this case. It sounds like there is no way to add a cluster to an existing gateway through PowerShell cmdlets. Here's a link to an idea to add such a feature to the cmdlets:
