+Set up nodes to communicate.
+
+Node pg-oca is master.
+Node pg-oca-rep1 does streaming replication of pg-oca.
+Node pg-oca-hdd does streaming replication of pg-oca-rep1 and stores to hard disk platters instead of NVMe drives.
+Node pg-oca-barman runs the Postgres barman backup system, and does backups of pg-oca-rep1.
+Node pg-oca-witness-1 is a Postgres witness server. It isn't needed at present.
