Hi,

I am getting error-"Waiting for requisite number of peers to join the cluster. - https://127.0.0.1:8089. site=site2 has only 0 peers (waiting for 2 peers to join the site)." As my CM is working fine but in my standby master(configuration like CM but having for disaster recovery) having this error. Is this the normal behavior as there is no peer attached?

The CM doesn't understand the concept of "standby" so it expects indexers to connect to it quickly.  You can either ignore the errors or shut down the standby CM until a DR event occurs.
