10. Vault - HA

In this scenario, we will spin up a three node Consul cluster along with three Vault servers configured in HA. This scenario is perfect to learn a bit about how Vault and Consul function together in HA.

Spinning Up

First we need to export our scenario configuration for Vagrant:

export SCENARIO=scenarios/vault_ha.yml

Now that we've exported our scenario configuration, we are ready to spin up our environment:

vagrant up

And off we go! You will see a lot going on here as Vagrant and Ansible do their job.

Nodes

This scenario has the following nodes when completed.
