server
The server
command starts a Vault server that responds to API requests. By
default, Vault will start in a "sealed" state. The Vault cluster must be
initialized before use, usually by the vault operator init
command. Each Vault
server must also be unsealed using the vault operator unseal
command or the
API before the server can respond to requests.
For more information, please see:
-
operator init
command for information on initializing a Vault server. -
operator unseal
command for information on providing unseal keys. -
Vault configuration for the syntax and various configuration options for a Vault server.
Examples
Start a server with a configuration file:
$ vault server -config=/etc/vault/config.hcl
Run in "dev" mode with a custom initial root token:
$ vault server -dev -dev-root-token-id="root"
Usage
The following flags are available in addition to the standard set of flags included on all commands.
Command Options
-
-config
(string: "")
- Path to a configuration file or directory of configuration files. This flag can be specified multiple times to load multiple configurations. If the path is a directory, all files which end in .hcl or .json are loaded. -
-log-level
(string: "info")
- Log verbosity level. Supported values (in order of detail) are "trace", "debug", "info", "warn", and "err". This can also be specified via the VAULT_LOG_LEVEL environment variable.
Dev Options
-
-dev
(bool: false)
- Enable development mode. In this mode, Vault runs in-memory and starts unsealed. As the name implies, do not run "dev" mode in production. -
-dev-listen-address
(string: "127.0.0.1:8200")
- Address to bind to in "dev" mode. This can also be specified via theVAULT_DEV_LISTEN_ADDRESS
environment variable. -
-dev-root-token-id
(string: "")
- Initial root token. This only applies when running in "dev" mode. This can also be specified via theVAULT_DEV_ROOT_TOKEN_ID
