Now, we have installed Quorum and constellation successfully, it's time to set up our first Quorum network. Before setting up the network, you need to decide whether you want to use Raft or IBFT, and accordingly you need to plan and set up. We will learn setting up both kinds of networks. We will also set up a constellation network.
Now, let's build a Raft network with constellation. We will also see how to add and remove new nodes once the network is up and running. We will build a network of four nodes.
Create a directory named raft
. Then, place the geth
and constellation-node
binaries in it. You can use the --help
option of geth
and constellation-node
to find the various sub-commands and options available.
