Configuring Swarm Storage

This section describes how to configure a Swarm storage cluster.

To configure a new cluster, modify the configuration (.cfg) file according to the implementation type:

• A cluster uses a cluster.cfg if the cluster boots from CSN or Platform Server.

• Prepare a node.cfg and boot one of the following ways if the cluster does not boot from CSN or Platform Server:

  • PXE boot the cluster

  • Boot the cluster using a centralized configuration server

  • Boot from a USB flash drive (requires an update to the caringo/node.cfg file in each node with identical settings)
