# Recovery of a Single Master Node Within the Cluster

## Problem

Can a single master node part of a PMK cluster be recovered/replaced?

## Environment

* Platform9 Managed Kubernetes - All Versions

## Answer

We encourage our enterprise users to create multi-master setups for HA and redundancy. There is no API/process in the product currently to do recovery/replacement for a single master node within the cluster.

## Additional Information

For a multi-master cluster, a detach operation of the master node via U/I to be replaced followed by an attach of a new master node is the preferred approach.
