Duplicate names in `ETCD_INITIAL_CLUSTER` not handled correctly
What happened?
If you don't pass a --name argument to your etcd processes, they will all have the name default and the cluster will operate normally. However, when you add a member, the generated ETCD_INITIAL_CLUSTER variable will have multiple entries with the name "default". When this environment variable is used, etcd will parse these into a mapping under a single key ("default") with multiple URLs, and create a single member. See https://github.com/etcd-io/etcd/blob/63a1cc3fe40bace6898289dec35a9aad05163889/server/etcdserver/api/membership/cluster.go#L83-L86
This leads to the confusing error message "member count is unequal". The documentation on https://etcd.io/docs/v3.5/op-guide/runtime-configuration/ mentions this failure, but the situation is different.
What did you expect to happen?
Either
a. member add should fail, saying it cannot generate a valid ETCD_INITIAL_CLUSTER due to duplicate names, or
b. etcd should accept duplicate names in ETCD_INITIAL_CLUSTER and treat them as separate members. This can be accomplished by updating func NewClusterFromURLsMap as follows:
c := NewCluster(lg, opts...)
for name, urls := range urlsmap {
for idx, _ := range urls {
m := NewMember(name, urls[idx:idx+1], token, nil)
[...]
I don't know if there's a real need to be able to specify multiple URLs for a single member.
How can we reproduce it (as minimally and precisely as possible)?
You need three terminals, x, y, and z:
x$ mkdir -p test_case/{a,b,c}/{data/member,wal}
x$ ETCD_INITIAL_CLUSTER="a=http://127.0.0.1:40000,b=http://127.0.0.1:40001" ETCD_INITIAL_CLUSTER_STATE=new etcd --name a --{initial-advertise,listen}-peer-urls=http://127.0.0.1:40000 --{advertise,listen}-client-urls=http://127.0.0.1:50000 --data-dir test_case/a/data --wal-dir test_case/a/wal
y$ ETCD_INITIAL_CLUSTER="a=http://127.0.0.1:40000,b=http://127.0.0.1:40001" ETCD_INITIAL_CLUSTER_STATE=new etcd --name b --{initial-advertise,listen}-peer-urls=http://127.0.0.1:40001 --{advertise,listen}-client-urls=http://127.0.0.1:50001 --data-dir test_case/b/data --wal-dir test_case/b/wal
[now kill both servers with Ctrl-C]
x$ etcd --listen-peer-urls=http://127.0.0.1:40000 --{advertise,listen}-client-urls=http://127.0.0.1:50000 --data-dir test_case/a/data --wal-dir test_case/a/wal
y$ etcd --listen-peer-urls=http://127.0.0.1:40001 --{advertise,listen}-client-urls=http://127.0.0.1:50001 --data-dir test_case/b/data --wal-dir test_case/b/wal
z$ ETCDCTL_ENDPOINT=http://localhost:50000 etcdctl member add c http://127.0.0.1:40002

A member can have multiple client or peer URLs. So in this case, you must specify the flag --name. But I agree that we should add a warning if the flag --name isn't present. Feel free to submit a PR for this. Thanks.
Hey @mortehu
I was trying to reproduce the issue by your given commands.
First of all, I think that this command on z terminal is wrong -> z$ ETCDCTL_ENDPOINT=http://localhost:50000 etcdctl member add c http://127.0.0.1:40002. As it gave me error: Error: too many arguments, did you mean --peer-urls=http://127.0.0.1:40002
After that I ran this command: ETCDCTL_ENDPOINT=http://localhost:50000 etcdctl member add c --peer-urls=http://127.0.0.1:40002 and the output was as follows.
{"level":"warn","ts":"2022-04-12T00:20:06.341-0700","caller":"flags/flag.go:93","msg":"unrecognized environment variable","environment-variable":"ETCDCTL_ENDPOINT=http://localhost:50000"}
Member f6f1fd0cdb6d6ac0 added to cluster cdf818194e3a8c32
ETCD_NAME="c"
ETCD_INITIAL_CLUSTER="default=http://localhost:2380,c=http://127.0.0.1:40002"
ETCD_INITIAL_ADVERTISE_PEER_URLS="http://127.0.0.1:40002"
ETCD_INITIAL_CLUSTER_STATE="existing"
After adding the member, I exported the required variables and executed etcd listen command: etcd --listen-peer-urls=http://127.0.0.1:40002 --{advertise,listen}-client-urls=http://127.0.0.1:50002 --data-dir test_case/c/data --wal-dir test_case/c/wal, but I didn't got any error of member count is unequal.
Instead, the error was:

Can you please tell me where I went wrong in reproducing the error? I followed the same given commands for terminal x and y.
Thanks @keremgocen , let's double confirm with @Divya063 firstly to avoid doing duplicate work.
@Divya063 are you still working on this?
@keremgocen Do let me know if you are bale to replicate the issue? I am also looking to work on some beginner-friendly issues. @ahrtr
Can you please tell me where I went wrong in reproducing the error? I followed the same given commands for terminal x and y.
Two comments:
- The environment variable should be
ETCDCTL_ENDPOINTSinstead ofETCDCTL_ENDPOINT; - You need to start a cluster with multiple members, i.e. 3

Thanks a lot for your reply. I'll check it.
I read the relevant code and found that Config.Name only has an actual role when the member is started for the first time -- used to determine whether it is local or remote: https://github.com/etcd-io/etcd/blob/main/server/etcdserver/cluster_util.go#L129
At other times, it is just an identifier without any constraints. Even the same member can be started with a different name each time
So I am more inclined to accept duplicate names in ETCD_INITIAL_CLUSTER and treat them as separate members.
What's your opinion? Thanks! @serathius @ahrtr
@nic-chen are you working on this? @ahrtr I was able to reproduce the issue. If @nic-chen is not working on this can I take it up? Also which of the two approaches would you suggest for solving the issue?
Just as I mentioned previously https://github.com/etcd-io/etcd/issues/13757#issuecomment-1057718054, each member can have multiple peer URLs. In the following example, http://1.1.1.1:2380 and http://2.2.2.2::2380 are regarded as two peer URLs of the member mach0. I don't think we should change this existing behavior.
mach0=http://1.1.1.1:2380,mach0=http://2.2.2.2::2380,mach1=http://3.3.3.3:2380,mach2=http://4.4.4.4:2380
I think we just need to print a warning message if users do not provide a value for --name.

hi @UtR491
sure, I reproduced and fixed it locally, just not finished testing, and I wanted to wait for a reply because I'm not that familiar with etcd.
A PR will be submitted this week.
If you could fix it and add test cases quickly, PR is welcome, I wouldn't mind.
