Hi, I'm trying to use basho bench in distributed mode, that is to say to use more than one machine for load generation. The documentation and the "--join" param of the basho_bench seem to indicate that this should be possible. But so far I failed to set it up. Let's say I want to start basho bench on two nodes, lets call them Node A and B. What parameters to basho_bench are needed on A and B respectively?
I also saw the previous mail exchange on the topic (How to run bash bench distributed, 18.5.2015). From there I gathered that I need to use something like the following (for Node A): Start command: ./basho_bench -N [email protected] -C basho_bench_cookie <config> Also I need in my config (on Node A): {remote_nodes, [{<domain_name_remote_node>, 'nodeB'}]}. {distribute_work, true}. Do I need to do anything on Node B? Like starting basho_bench with "--join"? What would the command look like? What do I need to put into my config on Node B? In what order do I have to execute the commands on A and B? Additionally, as I am trying to use the distributed setup with a custom driver: Does distributed mode only works with certain drivers, i.e. does the driver need to support it? For what exactly is the passwordless SSH needed? Because I don't have SSH access on the particular cluster, I do however have access over TCP and are, for example, able to setup distributed Erlang between the nodes. Any chance to get basho_bench working in this setup? Any help is greatly appreciated. I'm glad to provide more information if needed. Best regards Jens
