In this final implementation chapter, we learned how to extend, configure, and monitor our blockchain network. First, we extended our blockchain network by joining an existing Hyperledger Fabric organization, USA Automotive Services. In the process, as an existing Fabric participant, we wrote an OABCS certificates file and included the contents of the MSP certificates (admin
, ca
, and tlsca
). Next, as the OABCS founder, we imported this certificates file into the network and added the new organization to the insurancechain channel. Finally, we connected the Fabric organization to the ordering service of the OABCS network and joined the insurancechain channel.
In the second part of the chapter, we looked at how to configure our blockchain network and its capabilities in order to optimize different kinds of nodes in the network. For each type, we reviewed the attributes and looked at those that we could modify in the future.
In the third part of the chapter, we looked at how to monitor...
