Upon success, MarkLogic Server returns status code 200 (OK) and the response body contains the requested information, expressed as XML.
If license key installation and basic initialization have not yet been done, the response payload will include a timestamp, but all other elements will be empty.

This request must be directed to the MarkLogic Server Admin Interface on port 8001. For
example: http://localhost:8001/admin/v1/server-config.
This method is
intended for use in the context of other REST Management API methods during cluster
configuration, such as using the data returned by this request as input to a POST request to
/admin/v1/cluster-config. For the expected sequence, see the examples below.
For details and a complete example, see Scripting Cluster Management in the Scripting Administrative Tasks Guide.
Example
$ curl --anyauth --user user:password -X GET -H "Accept: application/xml" \
http://my-host:8001/admin/v1/server-config
==> The configuration of the server my-host.marklogic.com. MarkLogic
Server responds with output similar to the following. (The security
certificate has been elided for brevity.) See the additional example
for the full join sequence.

Example
Use in the following sequence to add a host to a cluster, assuming
clusterhost is a previously fully initialized bootstrap host for
the cluster and joining-host is the host to be initialized and added to
the cluster:
(1) Initialize the new host. For details, see POST /admin/v1/init.
Use GET /admin/v1/timestamp to verify a successful restart.
For details, see POST /admin/v1/init.
$ curl -X POST -d "" http://joining-host:8001/admin/v1/init
$ curl -X GET http://joining-host:8001/admin/v1/timestamp
(2) Retrieve the configuration of the joining host, to be used as the
value of the server-config param to POST /admin/v1/cluster-config.
$ curl -o joiner-config.xml -X GET -H "Accept: application/xml" \
http://joining-host:8001/admin/v1/server-config
==> The configuration for joining-host is saved to joiner-config.xml.
See the previous example for the output details.
(3) Send the joining host's URL encoded config info to the cluster host.
Receive the cluster configuration in return. For details, see
POST /admin/v1/cluster-config.
$ curl --anyauth --user user:password -X POST -d "group=Default" \
--data-urlencode "server-config@./joiner-config.xml" \
-H "Content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" \
-o cluster-config.zip http://clusterhost:8001/admin/v1/cluster-config
==> The cluster configuration data is saved in cluster-config.zip.
(4) Send the cluster configuration ZIP file to the joining host to
complete the cluster join sequence. Bracket the POST with calls
to GET /admin/v1/timestamp to confirm a successful restart. For
details, see POST /admin/v1/cluster-config.
$ curl -X GET http://joining-host:8001/admin/v1/timestamp
$ curl -X POST -H "Content-type: application/zip" \
--data-binary @./cluster-config.zip \
http://joining-host:8001/admin/v1/cluster-config
$ curl --anyauth --user user:password -X GET \
http://joining-host:8001/admin/v1/timestamp
==> The joining host becomes a functional member of the cluster.
