Hi @HenningAndersen,
Thanks for your swift reply! I did follow that guide, it was running with 2 containers on one server but the problem seems to be introduced by introducing the second server.
What I tried was to put 2 nodes on one server and one node on the other. But as you already told me, I seem to do something wrong with hostnames or ports.
I tried using the names as in the example, es01, es02 and es03 and only putting the server common names and ports in the seed hosts. But still no luck.
I'll paste the config file of the other server below, as well as the whole startup process and error that comes up. Thanks for your help, much appreciated!
sudo docker-compose up
