The `leave` command triggers a graceful leave and shutdown of the agent. It is used to ensure other nodes see the agent as left instead of failed. Nodes that leave will not attempt to re-join the cluster on restarting with a snapshot.

# Consul Leave
|
|
|
|
Command: `consul leave`
|
|
|
|
The `leave` command triggers a graceful leave and shutdown of the agent.
|
|
It is used to ensure other nodes see the agent as "left" instead of
|
|
"failed". Nodes that leave will not attempt to re-join the cluster
|
|
on restarting with a snapshot.
|
|
|
|
For nodes in server mode, the node is removed from the Raft peer set
|
|
in a graceful manner. This is critical, as in certain situations a
|
|
non-graceful leave can affect cluster availability.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
Usage: `consul leave`
|
|
|
|
The command-line flags are all optional. The list of available flags are:
|
|
|
|
* `-rpc-addr` - Address to the RPC server of the agent you want to contact
|
|
to send this command. If this isn't specified, the command will contact
|
|
"127.0.0.1:8400" which is the default RPC address of a Consul agent.
