Bug Report
As reported in #675 , the Quick start instructions fail on Mac because of the following problems :
While executing make cluster:
readlink does not support the -f option on Mac
uuidgen returns uppercase strings on Mac
Also, the documentation recommends to tune sysctl value tune vm/max_map_count for Elasticsearch, but it fails on mac.
Possible Solution
- Find a POSIX alternative for
readlink -f and apply it in bin/arnold and bin/init-cluster (hint here?)
- Fix the
uuidgen case issue
- Update the documentation to mention that the sysctl command needs special care on mac (possible solution here)
