How do I set up and configure service clusters?
I am reading the docs about the service and I am also interested in how to set up a cluster with multiple VMs, but so far I can only guess based on the devclustersetup.ps1 / it xml file, but I haven't seen any docs on it that explain the various configuration and / or API. I need how to set up a simple cluster, how to add / remove nodes, monitor, configure resource limits on a node, etc., so I can set up a sample cluster and check a few things.
So far I have been doing this:
- Installed VC runtime (since pi installer doesn't work)
- installed service cloth and SDK (removed installer from pi web installers)
- tried to modify the sample xml adding multiple hosts but then with this I ran into an IPv6 only problem in my setup (see my other question) so it didn't work

Setting up a multi-machine cluster is currently not supported, so you won't find any documentation explaining how to do this.
There will be a public preview of the service in Azure this year, and the platform will be available as part of Windows Server 2016 for on-premises deployments. As these options become available, there will be many instructions explaining how to configure and manage your cluster.
UPDATE: 2016-03-31
Offline installation on-prem or to another cloud is now available in the public preview for Windows Server 2012 R2 and higher.
