Multiple Node Service Template for Core OS

#Multiple Node Service Template for Core OS

Create 2 directory to manage using fleetctl for this service:

$ mkdir {templates,instances}

If you want to create 3 node instances type this on the shell command:

$ ln -s templates/[email protected] instances/[email protected]
$ ln -s templates/[email protected] instances/[email protected]
$ ln -s templates/[email protected] instances/[email protected]
$ ln -s templates/[email protected] instances/[email protected]
$ ln -s templates/[email protected] instances/[email protected]
$ ln -s templates/[email protected] instances/[email protected]

Finally just run this command from shell and you Core OS Instance should be up and run perfectly

$ fleetctl start instances/*

If your fleetctl is not working ensure that fleetctl tunnel is set properly run this command to set it if you are using Vagrant:

$ export FLEETCTL_TUNNEL=127.0.0.1:2222
$ ssh-add ~/.vagrant.d/insecure_private_key

# Remove the known host if you have previously destroyed another instance
$ rm ~/.fleetctl/known_hosts

PS:

You can change 21832 with any other of random port number
You should change mssio/node-express-demo with your own node application image
