Reference

• Install Multiple Instance on Server

To get 2.5.0 with multiple instances run rpm2cpio as this

•  rpm2cpio couchbase-server-enterprise_2.5.0_x86_64.rpm | cpio --extract --make-directories --no-absolute-filenames
• Copy the extracted directory to /opt/couchbaseX

Create each instance here.

• Instance 1 = /opt/couchbase and is default install and default files
• Instance 2 = /opt/couchbaseX

Modified the following files

• /etc/init.d/couchbase-server to /etc/init.d/couchbase-serverX linked to /opt/couchbaseX/bin/couchbase-server
• /opt/couchbaseX/bin/couchbase-server and change the paths inside this file
• /opt/couchbaseX/etc/couchbase/static_config and change paths to /opt/couchbaseX and add user-defined ports
• /opt/couchbaseX/etc/couchbase_init.d file and change paths to /opt/couchbaseX

Change the ROOTDIR variable in this directory  /opt/couchbaseX/lib/erlang/bin for ‘erl’ and ‘start’ files.

• erl:ROOTDIR=/opt/couchbaseb/lib/erlang
• start:ROOTDIR=/opt/couchbaseb/lib/erlang

Start

• cd /opt/couchbaseX/bin/
