STATUS_CLUSTER_JOIN_IN_PROGRESS

A node join is already in progress

STATUS_CLUSTER_JOIN_IN_PROGRESS means the cluster is already processing a join for the node. A second add or join request is not a safe way to accelerate the first one, because it can race with membership, network, storage, and validation work already underway.

Treat the join as an asynchronous state transition. Inspect the current node record, the join-time cluster log, and the validation result before deciding whether the first operation is progressing, failed, or needs a documented recovery step.

What to verify

Do not run parallel Add-ClusterNode operations for the same server.
Capture the exact node name, target cluster, timestamp, and related cluster-log entries.
Re-run validation only after the active join attempt has completed or been clearly rolled back.
