Wazuh Docker Deployment

Deploying Wazuh Docker in a Multi-Node Configuration

This deployment utilizes the multi-node/docker-compose.yml file, which defines a cluster setup with two Wazuh manager containers, three Wazuh indexer containers, and one Wazuh dashboard container. Follow these steps to deploy this configuration:

Navigate to the multi-node directory within your repository:
```
cd multi-node
```
Increase vm.max_map_count on each Docker host that will run a Wazuh Indexer container (Linux). This setting is crucial for Wazuh Indexer to operate correctly. This command requires root permissions:
```
sudo sysctl -w vm.max_map_count=262144
```
Note: This change is temporary and will revert upon reboot. To make it permanent on each relevant host, you'll need to edit the /etc/sysctl.conf file, add vm.max_map_count=262144, and then apply the change with sudo sysctl -p.
Run the script to generate the necessary certificates for the Wazuh Stack. This ensures secure communication between the nodes:
```
docker compose -f generate-indexer-certs.yml run --rm generator
```
Start the Wazuh environment using docker compose:
- To run in the foreground (logs will be displayed in your current terminal; press Ctrl+C to stop):
```
docker compose up
```
- To run in the background (detached mode, allowing the containers to run independently of your terminal):
```
docker compose up -d
```

Please allow some time for the environment to initialize, especially on the first run. A multi-node setup can take a few minutes (depending on your host resources and network) as the Wazuh Indexer cluster forms, and the necessary indexes and index patterns are generated.
