Steps to Deploy Artifactory Enterprise Using Terraform Template

Set your AWS account credentials by setting environment variables:
```
    export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID="your_access_key"
    export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY="your_secret_key"
    export AWS_DEFAULT_REGION="aws_region"
```
To learn more about Terraform aws provider follow there documentation. https://www.terraform.io/docs/providers/aws/index.html
Modify the default values in the variables.tf file
Pass the Artifactory Enterprise licenses as a string in the variables artifactory_license_1-5.
For example: Change disk space to 500Gb:
```
 variable "volume_size" {
   description = "Disk size for each EC2 instances"
   default     = 500
 }
```
Run the terraform init -var 'key_name=myAwsKey' command. This will install the required plugin for the AWS provider.
Run the terraform plan -var 'key_name=myAwsKey' command.
Run the terraform apply -var 'key_name=myAwsKey' command to deploy Artifactory Enterprise cluster on AWS

Note: it takes approximately 15 minutes to bring up the cluster.
You will receive ELB Url to access Artifactory. By default, this template starts only one node in the Artifactory cluster. It takes 7-10 minutes for Artifactory to start and to attach the instance to the ELB.The output can be viewed as:
```
Outputs:

address = artifactory-elb-265664219.us-west-2.elb.amazonaws.com
```
Access the Artifactory UI using ELB Url provided in outputs.
Scale your cluster using following command: terraform apply -var 'key_name=myAwsKey' -var 'secondary_node_count=2' In this example we are scaling artifactory cluster to 2 nodes.

Note: You can only scale nodes to number of artifactory licenses you have available for cluster.
SSH into Artifactory primary instance and type inactiveServerCleaner plugin in '/var/opt/jfrog/artifactory/etc/plugins' directory. (Optional) To destroy the cluster, run the following commend: terraform destroy -var 'key_name=myAwsKey'

Note:

This template only supports Artifactory version 5.8.x and above.
Turn off daily backups. Read Documentation provided here.

Note: In this template as default S3 is default filestore and data is persisted in S3. If you keep daily backups on disk space (default 250Gb) will get occupied quickly.
Use an SSL Certificate with a valid wildcard to your artifactory as docker registry with subdomain method.

Steps to setup Artifactory as secure docker registry

Considering you have SSL certificate for *.jfrog.team

Pass your SSL Certificate in variable ssl_certificate as string
Pass your SSL Certificate Key in variable ssl_certificate_key as string
Set certificate_domain as jfrog.team
Set artifactory_server_name as artifactory if you want to access artifactory with https://artifactory.jfrog.team
Create DNS for example Route53 with entry artifactory.jfrog.team pointing to ELB value provided as output in Terraform Stack.
Create DNS for example Route53 with entry *.jfrog.team pointing to ELB value provided as output in Terraform Stack.
If you have virtual docker registry with name docker-virtual in artifactory. You can access it via docker-virtual.jfrog.team e.g docker pull docker-virtual.jfrog.team/nginx

Steps to upgrade Artifactory Version

Change the value of artifactory_version from old version to new Artifactory version you want to deploy. for e.g. 5.8.1 to 5.8.2.
Run command terraform apply -var 'key_name=myAwsKey' -var 'secondary_node_count=2' -ver 'artifactory_version=5.8.2'. You will see instances will get upgraded one by one. Depending on your cluster size it will take 20-30 minutes to update stack.

Use Artifactory as backend

To to store state as an artifact in a given repository of Artifactory, see https://www.terraform.io/docs/backends/types/artifactory.html
