Hi everyone,

I’ve trying to understand some details about the HA configuration of consul for spring applications.

If I understand things correctly, spring.cloud.consul.host can accept only one value according to this:

> <https://stackoverflow.com/questions/41930437/can-spring-cloud-consul-host-config-value-have-multiple-consul-agents>

How is the spring application going to “know” the rest of the members of the cluster if I only set one value? googling didn’t seem to return any results explaining on how this can be resolved.

Can someone explain a bit how is consul HA achieved if we only provide info for one node?
