The Database Connector

Carbonio is a bootstrapped carbonio.

The bootstrap command will perform a variety of operations and configure the node. At the end, you will be presented with a menu, and if you have previously configured everything, all you need to do is click y for confirmation.

You must give these values during the procedure, which you may obtain from the initial Mesh and Directory node.

• The FQDN of the first Mesh and Directory node is the Ldap master host (example: ldap-mstr.example.com).
• The first Mesh and Directory node provides the Ldap Admin password (ldap-admin-password).

Carbonio Mesh is necessary for Carbonio and its components to communicate. Command generates the setup interactively.

• If you forget your password or the credential file becomes corrupted and useless, you can reset it by following the steps outlined in the section Carbonio Mesh Credentials.
• Save the configuration to the file /etc/zextras/service-discover/cluster-credentials.tar.gpg.
