launch-instance

Launch a Rumi service (worker) instance into an existing network and open its application ports. The Rumi application itself is deployed onto the worker by the controller afterwards (the snapshot is base + Java only). Requires the bastion to be running.

Example

Notes

  • Boots from the baked service (Worker base) snapshot, labelled so both the base service firewall (SSH within the network) and a per-service app-port firewall auto-apply.

  • --ports creates a per-service firewall opening those TCP ports to the network CIDR. It is applied by label, so it attaches whether it is created before or after the instance — giving dynamic app-port opening. Omitting --ports opens no app ports (open them later by re-running with --ports).

  • Registers <service>.rumi.local on the bastion's DNS and points the worker's resolver at the bastion.

  • Multiple services can coexist in one network; each gets a distinct name and its own per-service firewall. All are swept by deprovision.
