Setting up a local test grid

1. Create a directory for the grid:

mkdir tahoe-grid && cd tahoe-grid 

2. Create an introducer and start it, and then stop it, so that an introducer FURL is generated (we need this for the next step):

tahoe create-introducer --hostname localhost node-0
tahoe run node-0
^C

3. Create a client node (serve WUI on a non-default port so as not to compete with your working tahoe installation):

tahoe create-node --hostname localhost -i $(cat node-0/private/introducer.furl) --no-storage -p 3460 -n node-1 node-1 

4. Create some storage nodes:

for i in {2..9}; do tahoe create-node --hostname localhost -i $(cat node-0/private/introducer.furl) -p none -n node-$i node-$i; done 

5. Start the grid!:

for i in {0..9}; do tahoe run node-$i & done

6. Check it worked:

tahoe -d node-1 webopen
