As noted in issue #897, there is a documentation bug. This PR adds a few lines detailing
config-dir
, as well as making sure the/etc/consul.d
directory exists and is writable, to ensure later steps in the guide works (egecho ... > /etc/consul.d/ping.json
). Having the directory world writable might not be very advisable in a real environment, however, so maybe it shouldn't be done in the demo either?
