The problem I see is that since this script is just functions if I run it then it will do nothing as the functions are not called. Is there some kind of “include” that I am missing?
Thank you for the link for the tutorial. I am still not sure what the sequence should be for calling your script on startup. All of the examples that I have seen startup a single executable. It looks like I need to either include your script into another script and start it or . . . .

I am a little new to the administration of init.d. What do I need to edit to remove the startup of the Riak instance? What should be changed to the init.d to run the script on boot up? I notice that the script only has functions. You should consult your Linux distribution for helpful hints on doing this. This[1] may be of some help. [1]: http://www.unixtutorial.org/2009/01/disable-service-startup-in-ubuntu/ How are the functions used? You'd use those functions the same way you would use any other Linux command. You also do ‘ulimit –n 1024’. On installation I received a warning that 1024 was too low. Should the ulimit be changed? Yes. You'll rapidly run into problems with open file handles, especially with multiple Riak nodes on the same box. Thanks again.

To add a node to a cluster, you can execute riak-admin cluster join riak@192.168.0.1 See [1] for more details. There is no need to reboot for the cluster to be formed; the nodes will talk amongst themselves and once they find each other, the cluster is up. To start and stop my dev cluster, I wrote a quick bash function [2] to handle starting and stopping my local dev cluster. In production, you'd add Riak to the init scripts like you did with your single node. You could even tell init.d to not start the main cluster and instead execute your dev cluster if you'd prefer. If I were you, I'd remove (or at the very least, stop) the Riak instance you've got and walk through the Fast Track/Quick Start.

The “Quick Start” shows manually starting each riak server then joining. But when I start my Linux server I see that a riak server is started. I am assuming that this is the main riak server that was installed. How do I start three riak instances instead of just one or by starting one they all are started automatically? I understand the join cannot be configured. So after I have these three riak instances running (presumably after a reboot) then I join them into a cluster, reboot, and the cluster will be formed? After the cluster has been formed how do I “edit” it? I would foresee needing to add or remove nodes from the cluster.

The “Quick Start” builds a simple cluster all on the same machine (called dev1, dev2, and dev3). It assigns the ports, IP addresses, etc. I would like to do something similar but I would like the cluster to startup automatically. What do I need to add to the configuration file so that all of the joins etc. happen on startup? This would be a Ubuntu Server if it makes any difference. There is no configuration option to do this. However, once the nodes have been joined to a cluster, they'll remain part of the same cluster even if they're restarted. Hope this helps. Reid Thank you.
