  1. Run two instances of the application in separate terminals:
$ ./runNode1.sh
$ ./runNode2.sh
  • Notice how the scripts override the Akka remote port.
  • Observe the logs. You will know your cluster has successfully formed when the first node (running on port 2551) reports:
Node [akka://Loyalty@127.0.0.1:2552] is JOINING, roles [dc-default]
Leader is moving node [akka://Loyalty@127.0.0.1:2552] to [Up]
  • The second node (running on port 2552) should report:
Cluster Node [akka://Loyalty@127.0.0.1:2552] - Welcome from [akka://Loyalty@127.0.0.1:2551]
  1. At this point, we have enabled Akka Clustering in our application. This creates the foundation for other Akka features such as Akka Cluster Sharding. Try the following experiment:
$ ./credibility.sh -p 8000 -a sample credit 100
$ ./credibility.sh -p 8001 -a sample credit 200
$ ./credibility.sh -p 8000 -a sample debit 100
$ ./credibility.sh -p 8001 -a sample debit 200
$ ./credibility.sh -p 8000 -a sample retrieve
$ ./credibility.sh -p 8001 -a sample retrieve
  • Since everything is working the way it is supposed to, we will have a balance of 0 points. To prove that point let's try some more debit transactions:
$ ./credibility.sh -p 8000 -a sample debit 100
$ ./credibility.sh -p 8001 -a sample debit 100
  • We get consistent results.
