Why I don't see LEADER badge on server?


I have 3 consul servers in cluster. They were recovered from outage. Now they are running. Everything works. I checked with API who is leader, and I found it out. But weird thing - I don't see LEADER badge in UI. Morover I see "No service checks" on each server. I tried to restart each server, but it didn't help. How to fix it?

Consul UI


Solution

  • The leader badge is shown under the Nodes view in the UI, not the Services view.

    Consul leader shown in Nodes view of Consul UI

    Aside from the built-in Serf health check, the Consul servers do not have any additional service checks associated with them.
