Description

We need to test adding and removing nodes, workers most likely. If I define nodes in vars.yaml but do not boot some of them, will the booted nodes bootstrap and install? What happens if I boot the additional nodes and the cluster is up. Do they auto join or will I have to do extra steps?

Research direction

Start by reviewing vars.yaml and the playbook's bootstrap and install flow for how defined nodes are selected. Trace the behavior when workers are absent at first and added later, then verify whether they auto-join or require extra steps. Done means the supported workflow and observed node behavior are clearly documented or covered by a reproducible test.
