Hello all
Does anyone know who you would add multiple roles within my powershell script, for deplying tentacles ??
As this doesnt work
$odtroles = “web,api,service”
Tentacle.exe register-with --instance “Tentacle” --server $odtserver --apiKey=$odtapi --role $odtroles --environment $odtenv --comms-style TentaclePassive --console --force
Would it be:
$odtroles = “web”,“api”,“service”
or something else ?
Regards
James
Hi James,
Thanks for reaching out. It should be --role "Role1" --Role "Role2" and so on.
Best regards,
Dalmiro
Hello Dalmiro
When I add more than two arguments for --role, it doesn’t recognize the next argument in string, so for example below, it will complain about doesn’t recognize --environment
Example:
Tentacle.exe register-with --instance “Tentacle” --server $odtserver --apiKey=$odtapi --role $odtrole --role $odta --role $odtb --environment $odtenv --comms-style TentaclePassive --console --force
Is there a better approach to this ?
As we could have for our DEV / UAT environments a single node with 5 to 8 roles assigned to them ?
Or can we dynamically populate these variables based on hostname ?
Regards
James
Hi James,
Sorry for the delay here. I’ve tested this in my lab and it seems to work just fine (See attached screenshots).
Which version of the Tentacle are you using? It says it on the console every time you execute a Tentacle.exe command. I’ve used 3.3.11 to test this.
Regards,
Dalmiro

I was able to get this working, my script does the following below.
Note: This script is JSON below as it’s in my Cloud Formation Template in AWS, you can convert it back to a .ps1 if you’ll need to use it as a Power Shell script.
