Hello,

First I would like to say thanks so much for your work on this project.

Do you have more information on what setting "cluster" in the init method does? I am deploying my app to kubernetes using helm and want to know if it is something I would need to enable.

Thanks,
Tyler

The first question is:

Why are you using kubernetes?
Why are you using Greenlock with node instead of a kubernetes tool like traefik or Caddy?

Do you have your databases (or other shared storage) set up for your domain management, certificate management, and ACME challenges?

Last:

Do you have multiple CPU cores (per container)?

cluster has no benefit unless you're actually running on multiple cores (or multiple CPUs) - otherwise you'll actually make responses slower.

Hey Tyler, Did that help? Just wanted to make sure that A) you've got the right tool (and pre-requisite tools) for the job and B) your original question was answered.

Yes that did help. This is my first app on kubernetes so I was not aware of those other tools. Those seem like a better tool than using greenlock for it.

Thanks for all of your help I really appreciate it.
