What command should an admin run to restore a Multi-Node environment to a new Central Node?

The correct command to restore a Multi-Node environment to a new Central Node is "Run Repository.exe -bootstrap -standalone -restorehostname." This command is essential for a few reasons.

First, bootstrapping is a necessary step in configuring new nodes in a Qlik Sense environment, especially when setting up a Central Node that will lead a multi-node architecture. The "standalone" option indicates that the command is being executed on a single instance that temporarily exists until the entire cluster can be fully restored. This is crucial for ensuring that the newly introduced Central Node can be operational without any conflict with existing nodes or configurations.

Additionally, the inclusion of the "-restorehostname" parameter signifies that you are specifying the hostname for the restoration process, which is vital when transitioning to a new Central Node. This ensures that the environment recognizes the new node correctly and that the various components are appropriately aligned with the infrastructure.

The other commands, while they may seem relevant, either do not serve the intended purpose of establishing a new Central Node effectively or represent incorrect actions within the Qlik Sense maintenance framework. Understanding the specific functions of these commands helps in maintaining proper configurations and avoiding potential data inconsistencies in a multi-node setup.
