Vadim Tkachenko recently released Docker images for Group Replication (thank you for that 😉 ).
As not everybody is already using Docker or just because having multiple choices is also nice (this is an OpenSource world isn’t it ?), I decided to share a Vagrant environment that you can use to evaluate Group Replication.
This environment provides also a module that can be used to deploy GR on any other environment managed by Puppet.
The repository is available on my github account: mysqlGR-vagrant
This is a quick demo on how to use it:
Tadam ! You have a MySQL Group of 3 members ready to use !
On ubuntu 16.04 if you installed Vagrant from Xenial’s repo, it will be Vagrant 1.8.1, which will give:
“`sh@sh-ubuntu:~/REPOS/mysqlGR-vagrant$ vagrant plugin install vagrant-hostmanager
Installing the ‘vagrant-hostmanager’ plugin. This can take a few minutes…

Try to download and install directly from here ->
`wget https://releases.hashicorp.com/vagrant/1.8.5/vagrant_1.8.5_x86_64.deb`
The result will be:
“`sh@sh-ubuntu:~/Downloads$ sudo vagrant plugin install vagrant-hostmanager

Installed the plugin ‘vagrant-hostmanager (1.8.5)’!“`
Hi Shahriyar,
Thank yoy for the info. Indeed it’s always to use the latest official release, I was using 1.8.4 and 1.8.5
Nice, I see that this vagrant environment for MySQL Group Replication beta 8.0 is used to find and verify bugs ! #useful
