Hi, I’m looking for resources on setting up a local, stateful Nomad cluster for development, using Vagrant. The Nomad tutorial introduces tooling to create a stateless -dev cluster. I’d like to expand this to a stateful cluster that uses Vault and Consul as well. Any tips would be appreciated. Tha…

Hi @egmanoj , Thanks for using Nomad. I haven’t set things up with Ansible, but the following process works for me reliably using Vagrant and Nomad. I hope it is useful for you. Note: I use the Vagrantfile in the Nomad repo Host machine Install Vagrant Install Virtualbox mkdir -p /opt/gopath/src/…

Hey Manoj, I set this up locally via Ansible + custom playbooks for each service, which extend the ansible-community Consul, Vault, and Nomad roles. Depending on your configuration, you might be able to get away with a fully provisioned cluster at the time of your vagrant up call.

[image] lgfa29: Have you tried HashiQube? I haven’t. And it looks very interesting. Will take it for a spin. Thanks!

Nice! Let us know how it goes :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

[image] lgfa29: Let us know how it goes Tried another approach first. Rationale: want to use the same tools - as much as possible - for local, QA, staging, prod. With that in mind tried my hand at writing a Terraform script to provision a local Virtualbox cluster. I was hoping to reuse (more…

Update: Tried using both ansible-consul and ansible-nomad roles in the same playbook to install consul and nomad in the same servers, without success. As far as I can tell: Consul gets installed, starts, and is accessible via UI Nomad is installed, but doesn’t start I am stuck at this point. How …

Hi @DerekStrickland , Thanks a lot. I now have a local nomad cluster up and running. I successfully tested a simple Tomcat job using raw_exec (This article helped). Some questions/comments. Of the three VMs started using vagrant up, linux is used as a build server. If I download and install pre…

Hi @egmanoj Sorry for the delay. My inbox is too full :cry: So you’d have to add config to the server/client hcl to connect to Consul. And for good measure, I think you’d probably want to add a similar /etc/systemd/system/consul.service file for Consul.

Hi @egmanoj

Have you tried HashiQube?

It’s a community project that will spin-up a VM with several of the HashiCorp tools running. Give it a try and see if it fits what you need
