d3alek opened a new pull request #297: Configure cluster Erlang port range using vm.args
URL: https://github.com/apache/couchdb-documentation/pull/297
 
 
   Ports specified in sys.config as per previous documentation seem to be ignored by CouchDB
   
   ## Overview
   
   Current documentation suggests putting the distributed Erlang port range restriction in `sys.config`, however in my experience this does not get picked up by CouchDB. What works for me is specifying the port range in `vm.args` instead.  I am using a recent build from source (`62f71c0b0`).
   
   I am aware I may not be putting `sys.config` in the correct place to be picked up by CouchDB - if that's the case and modifying `sys.config` works for you then let me know and I will change the PR to simply clarify the correct location for `sys.config`.
