You cannot add node, which have already be a part of SHC. You must first “install” it from scratch. That is described on docs.

when i try to run from searchead i get the below error 

/opt/app/ecomm/splunksearchhead/bin

./splunk add shcluster-member -current_member_uri https://<ip>:9089 

In handler 'shclustermemberconsensus': Node lonrsxxx-searchhead is not part of a cluster and cannot handle proxied calls. This may be because current_member_uri is not pointing to an existing cluster member. Run 'splunk help add shcluster-member' for more info.
