The whole setup of Oracle NoSQL, in my opinion, is bananas. Each time I tried to set it up, something always failed. Luckily, or because of it, some people (oracle) create a script to facilitate the configuration. The script can be downloaded by cloning this repo:

In this repo, there is a folder called: cluster_setup into which, there is a script called: cluster_setup.sh, they should really come up with a better names :)

Either way, so in our case, we will just configure 2 VMs (using vagrant) and run that setup.
