Riak Dev Cluster for OS X

Easily run a 5-node Riak cluster on OS X.

• The names of the nodes are riak[1-5]@127.0.0.1
• The HTTP port of riak1 is 11098: http://127.0.0.1:11098
• Riak Control (Admin UI) is available here: https://admin:admin@127.0.0.1:11098/admin
• All nodes use the eleveldb storage backend to support secondary indexes
• Please see riak[1-5]/etc/app.config for the other ports and settings

$ git clone git://github.com/simonvc/riak-dev-cluster.git

There is a bootstrap command available that installs, starts and joins the riak cluster in one go:

$ rake bootstrap

Join all nodes as a cluster (only needed once):
