Deploying Community Edition w/o VDC

Trying to set up a replication group between two instances of ECS Community Edition. The deployment scripts won't let me skip the VDC creation step on the 2nd instance. If I abort the script, the instance doesn't get licensed. What should I do?

    What version of ECS Community Edition are you using?  The current version is multi-VDC aware and provisions all of your VDCs and global replication groups for you as long as you have specified them in the deploy.yml file (documention available GitHub).  You can access the current version here: https://github.com/EMCECS/ECS-CommunityEdition

    Hello! I'm reviving this old thread, but I'm in the same situation and I cannot find any solution. I don't know about which version @travis_wichert was talking about at that time. But I just downloaded the latest one  2.9.1 (ECS 3.8.0.1) and the deploy.yml file looks like this:

      # [Required]
  # Virtual data center layout. You MUST have at least ONE (1) VDC for a successful install.
  # Multi-VDC deployments are not yet implemented
  virtual_data_centers:
    - name: vdc1
      members:
        - sp1
      options:
        description: My First VDC

    So, no multi-VDC possibility. Is there any way I can achieve replication in ECS Community Edition?
