 The following guide shows how to run etcd with rkt and Docker using the [static bootstrap process](clustering.md#static).
 
+## rkt
+
+### Running a single node etcd
+
+The following rkt run command will expose the etcd client API on port 2379 and expose the peer API on port 2380.
+
+Use the host IP address when configuring etcd.
+
+```
+export NODE1=192.168.1.21
+```
+
+Trust the CoreOS [App Signing Key](https://coreos.com/security/app-signing-key/).
+
+```
+sudo rkt trust --prefix coreos.com/etcd
+# gpg key fingerprint is: 18AD 5014 C99E F7E3 BA5F  6CE9 50BD D3E0 FC8A 365E
+```
+
+Run the `v3.0.6` version of etcd or specify another release version.
+
+```
+sudo rkt run --net=default:IP=${NODE1} coreos.com/etcd:v3.0.6 -- -name=node1 -advertise-client-urls=http://${NODE1}:2379 -initial-advertise-peer-urls=http://${NODE1}:2380 -listen-client-urls=http://0.0.0.0:2379 -listen-peer-urls=http://${NODE1}:2380 -initial-cluster=node1=http://${NODE1}:2380
+```
+
+List the cluster member.
+
+```
+etcdctl --endpoints=http://192.168.1.21:2379 member list
+```
+
+### Running a 3 node etcd cluster
+
+Setup a 3 node cluster with rkt locally, using the `-initial-cluster` flag.
+
+```sh
+export NODE1=172.16.28.21
+export NODE2=172.16.28.22
+export NODE3=172.16.28.23
+```
+
+```
+# node 1
+sudo rkt run --net=default:IP=${NODE1} coreos.com/etcd:v3.0.6 -- -name=node1 -advertise-client-urls=http://${NODE1}:2379 -initial-advertise-peer-urls=http://${NODE1}:2380 -listen-client-urls=http://0.0.0.0:2379 -listen-peer-urls=http://${NODE1}:2380 -initial-cluster=node1=http://${NODE1}:2380,node2=http://${NODE2}:2380,node3=http://${NODE3}:2380
+
+# node 2
+sudo rkt run --net=default:IP=${NODE2} coreos.com/etcd:v3.0.6 -- -name=node2 -advertise-client-urls=http://${NODE2}:2379 -initial-advertise-peer-urls=http://${NODE2}:2380 -listen-client-urls=http://0.0.0.0:2379 -listen-peer-urls=http://${NODE2}:2380 -initial-cluster=node1=http://${NODE1}:2380,node2=http://${NODE2}:2380,node3=http://${NODE3}:2380
+
+# node 3
+sudo rkt run --net=default:IP=${NODE3} coreos.com/etcd:v3.0.6 -- -name=node3 -advertise-client-urls=http://${NODE3}:2379 -initial-advertise-peer-urls=http://${NODE3}:2380 -listen-client-urls=http://0.0.0.0:2379 -listen-peer-urls=http://${NODE3}:2380 -initial-cluster=node1=http://${NODE1}:2380,node2=http://${NODE2}:2380,node3=http://${NODE3}:2380
+```
+
+Verify the cluster is healthy and can be reached.
+
+```
+ETCDCTL_API=3 etcdctl --endpoints=http://172.16.28.21:2379,http://172.16.28.22:2379,http://172.16.28.23:2379 endpoint-health
+```
+
+### DNS
+
+Production clusters which refer to peers by DNS name known to the local resolver must mount the [host's DNS configuration](https://coreos.com/kubernetes/docs/latest/kubelet-wrapper.html#customizing-rkt-options).
+
 ## Docker
 
 In order to expose the etcd API to clients outside of Docker host, use the host IP address of the container. Please see [`docker inspect`](https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/inspect) for more detail on how to get the IP address. Alternatively, specify `--net=host` flag to `docker run` command to skip placing the container inside of a separate network stack.

+## Bare Metal
+
+To provision a 3 node etcd cluster on bare-metal, you might find the examples in the [baremetal repo](https://github.com/coreos/coreos-baremetal/tree/master/examples) useful.
