Give your Pi's hostnames:
I have 6-8 shells open while going through this exercise.
update all of your PI's hostname files.
I have a 6 node cluster so my pi's each get a bit 000000 identifying it's place within the case.
sudo nano /etc/hostname
Add the server hostnames to the file
ubuntu-pi-100000 ubuntu-pi-010000 ubuntu-pi-001000 ubuntu-pi-000100 ubuntu-pi-000010 ubuntu-pi-000001
Give your Pi's IP's:
Update the netplan configuration on each of your Pi's
sudo nano /etc/netplan/50-cloud-init.yaml
Modify the network file to match your adapter and IP's.
