Bulk loader location

This thread has become very confused.

My workflow on k8s for using bulk loader:

  1. bring up 3 zeros
  2. bring up one alpha and have it block in the init container (part of the helm chart)
  3. exec into init container on the single alpha that is up, and run dgraph bulk <flags>
  4. after the bulk loader finishes, bring up remaining alpha node pods (they also stall in init container)
  5. distribute the out/N/p/ directories from the first node to their respective group members and place them in /dgraph/p
  6. touch doneinit in every alpha to unblock the init container and it will start up with all of your data
