Create a Hyperledger Fabric Peer Node on Amazon Managed Blockchain (AMB)

You can create a Hyperledger Fabric peer node in a member that is in your AWS account using the AWS Management Console, the AWS CLI, or the AMB Access SDK CreateNode action.

To create a peer node using the AWS Management Console

1. Open the AMB Access console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/managedblockchain/.

2. Choose Networks, select the network from the list, and then choose View details.

3. Select a Member from the list, and then choose Create peer node.

4. Choose configuration parameters for your peer node according to the guidelines in Work with Hyperledger Fabric Peer Nodes on AMB Access, and then choose Create peer node.

To create a peer node using the AWS CLI

• Use the create-node command, as shown in the following example. Replace the value of --network-id, --member-id, and AvailabilityZone as appropriate.

  [ec2-user@ip-192-0-2-17 ~]$ aws managedblockchain create-node \
  --node-configuration '{"InstanceType":"bc.t3.small","AvailabilityZone":"us-east-1a"}' \
  --network-id n-MWY63ZJZU5HGNCMBQER7IN6OIU \
  --member-id m-K46ICRRXJRCGRNNS4ES4XUUS5A

  The command returns output that includes the peer node's NodeID, as shown in the following example:

  {
       "NodeId": "nd-6EAJ5VA43JGGNPXOUZP7Y47E4Y"
  }
