(3a) Set vm.max_map_count to no less than 262144 (must run each time host is booted)

sudo sysctl -w vm.max_map_count=262144

(3b) Set vm.max_map_count to no less than 262144 (one time configuration)

sudo echo "vm.max_map_count=262144" >> /etc/sysctl.conf

(4) Start Docker

sudo docker-compose up

Once fully running, navigate to the host ip (ex: 192.168.0.100:5601)

Please visit the following documentation for additional details.

Randomize published ports

Use either --publish-all or enable random ports for hosts, for example:

  elasticsearch:
    ports:
      - '9200'

Enable the data path to be shared by multiple nodes

For example, if you want to scale out to 3 nodes, use the following value:

  elasticsearch:
    environment:
      node.max_local_storage_nodes: '3'

(1) Scale out pfelk

Scale out your deployment to 3 nodes by running the following command:

sudo docker-compose up -d --scale pfelk=3
