From d367c4bec22ad20807901c4b9c53b4fe4cd0fa59 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Paul J. Davis" Date: Wed, 12 Oct 2011 18:10:04 -0500 Subject: Improve remsh script Cookies now default to using ~/.erlang.cookie which is automatically generated if it does not exist when erlang starts with a name. There is also no longer a need to specify a name to remsh as it'll generate a name based on the process id and set the short or long version appropriately. --- rel/overlay/etc/vm.args | 13 +++++++++---- 1 file changed, 9 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) (limited to 'rel/overlay/etc') diff --git a/rel/overlay/etc/vm.args b/rel/overlay/etc/vm.args index bb143502..03e5af27 100644 --- a/rel/overlay/etc/vm.args +++ b/rel/overlay/etc/vm.args @@ -4,10 +4,15 @@ # with the -name flag. {{node_name}} -# All nodes must share the same magic cookie for distributed Erlang to work. -# Comment out this line if you synchronized the cookies by other means (using -# the ~/.erlang.cookie file, for example). --setcookie monster +# If you passed a value for the cookie to ./configure it will be set here. +# Otherwise it will default to using ~/.erlang.cookie which will be generated +# automatically if it doesn't exist. +# +# Note that you need to make sure that the cookie value used is synchronized +# across all nodes in the cluster.
