Even after bootstrap is completed successfully, consul info cli command shows bootstrap = false, why?

Consul
1

Hello Team,
The consul members and consul operator raft list-peers results shows perfect results. To verify bootstrap I ran consul info cli command, and found that consul.bootstra = false. Not sure why since bootstrap_expext and retry_join both are correct and all operations works perfect.

      Please advice

Hi @mdjumde,

Welcome to HashiCorp Forums!

The bootstrap field will be set to true only when -bootstrap flag is passed or when -bootstrap_expect is 1.

In a multi-server Consul cluster, this field will always be shown as false when configured correctly.

I hope this helps.
