Revision as of 16:33, 11 December 2014

This part of the guide is intended to cover the installation and configuration of gCube services that are not mentioned in the Administration guide. Mainly we refer to services that are not Enabling and that can be installed dynamically by the Infrastructure/VO Managers. The list includes also for each component known issues and specific configuration steps to follow.

Search

Search V 2.xx

The installation of a Search Node in gCube is characterised by the installation of 2 web-services ( in the minimal configuration ) :

  • SearchSystemService
  • ExecutionEngineService

This is the minimal installation scenario but it's possible to enable distributed search as well and this will required the installation and configuration of several ExecutionEngineServices

HW requirements

The minimal installation requirements for a Search node are a Single CPU node with 2GB RAMm but it's more than recommended to have at least 3GB RAM on the node dedicated to the GHN.

Configuration

The SearchSystemService and ExecutionEngineService have to be automatically/manually deployed in a VRE scope. In addition if we want to configure the SearchSystemService to exploit the local ExecutionEngineService to run the queries ( minimal installation) we should configure the jndi service as follows:

  • excludeLocal = false
  • collocationThreshold = 0.3f
  • complexPlanNumNodes = 800000

Search v 3.x.x

The 3.0 version has moved to Smartgears and tomcat.

The requirement of the codeployment with Execution Engine Service is also there , so the Execution Engine Service v 2.0.0 has been also ported to SmartGears

HW requirements

The minimal installation requirements for a Search node are a Single CPU node with 2GB RAMm but it's more than recommended to have at least 3GB RAM on the node dedicated to the GHN.

Configuration

in order to fix an issue with datanucleus compatibility and java 7 there is a change to be included in the tomcat configuration:

  • uncomment and modify the following line on the $CATALINA_HOME/bin/catalina.sh file:
JAVA_OPTS="$JAVA_OPTS -noverify -Dorg.apache.catalina.security.SecurityListener.UMASK=`umask`"
  • The conf file $CATALINA_HOME/conf/infrastructure.properties containing infra and scope informations needs to be present
# a single infrastructure
infrastructure=d4science.research-infrastructures.eu
 # multiple scopes must be separated by a common (e.g FARM,gCubeApps)
scopes=Ecosystem
clientMode=false


  • The conf file $CATALINA_HOME/webapps/<search>WEB-INF/classes/deploy.properties needs to be filled with this info:
hostname = xx
startScopes = xx
port=xx

Known Issues

Excecution Engine

The 2.0 version has moved to Smartgears and tomcat.

HW requirements

The minimal installation requirements for an Execution Engine node are a Single CPU node with 2GB RAMm but it's more than recommended to have at least 3GB RAM on the node dedicated to the GHN.

Installation

Different packagings of the Execution engine are available depending on the service they are going to be co-deployed with and invoked:

  • DTS : <artifactId>executionengineservice-dts</artifactId>
  • Search: <artifactId>executionengineservice-search</artifactId>

Configuration

in order to fix an issue with datanucleus compatibility and java 7 there is a change to be included in the tomcat configuration:

  • uncomment and modify the following line on the $CATALINA_HOME/bin/catalina.sh file:
JAVA_OPTS="$JAVA_OPTS -noverify -Dorg.apache.catalina.security.SecurityListener.UMASK=`umask`"
  • The conf file $CATALINA_HOME/conf/infrastructure.properties containing infra and scope informations needs to be present
# a single infrastructure
infrastructure=d4science.research-infrastructures.eu
 # multiple scopes must be separated by a common (e.g FARM,gCubeApps)
scopes=Ecosystem
clientMode=false


  • The conf file $CATALINA_HOME/webapps/<execution-engine>WEB-INF/classes/deploy.properties needs to be filled with this info:
hostname = xx
startScopes = xx
port=xx
pe2ng.port = 4000
  • in case the exeucution engine needs to call DTS on the container.xml add:
<property name='dts.execution' value='true' />

Executor and GenericWorker

HW requirements

The minimal installation requirements for an Executor node with a Generic Worker plugin are a Single CPU node with 2GB RAM but it's more than recommended to have at least 3GB RAM on the node dedicated to the GHN.

Configuration

The following Software should be installed on the VM:

  • R version 2.14.1

whit the following components

  • coda
  • R2jags
  • R2WinBUGS
  • rjags
  • bayesmix
  • runjags

Known Issues

  • The GenericWorker is exploited by the Statistical Manager service to run distributed computations. Given that the SM use the root scope to discover instances of the GenericWorker. the plugin must be deployed at root scope level
  • Given that the GenericWorker plugin depends on the Executor Service, when dynamically deploying the plugin the Executor Service is also deployed.

DTS

DTS v2.x

HW requirements

The minimal installation requirements for an DTS node are a Single CPU node with 2GB RAMm but it's more than recommended to have at least 3GB RAM on the node dedicated to the GHN.

Configuration

DTS uses Execution Engine to run the transformations so at least one Execution Engine should be deployed in the same scope as DTS and the related GHNLabels.xml file should contain:

<Variable>
      <Key>dts.execution</Key>
      <Value>true</Value>
</Variable>

Known Issues

none

DTS v3.x

HW requirements

The minimal installation requirements for an DTS node with a Generic Worker plugin are a Single CPU node with 2GB RAMm but it's more than recommended to have at least 3GB RAM on the node dedicated to the GHN.

Configuration

  • The conf file $CATALINA_HOME/conf/infrastructure.properties containing infra and scope informations needs to be present
# a single infrastructure
infrastructure=d4science.research-infrastructures.eu
 # multiple scopes must be separated by a common (e.g FARM,gCubeApps)
scopes=Ecosystem
clientMode=false
  • The conf file $CATALINA_HOME/webapps/<dts>/WEB-INF/classes/deploy.properties needs to be filled with this info:
hostname = xx
startScopes = xx
port=xx

DTS uses Execution Engine to run the transformations so at least one Execution Engine should be deployed in the same scope as DTS and the related Smartgears conf file ( container.xml ) should have this properties:

<property name='dts.execution' value='true' /> 

Index

Index Service

The Index Service is the latest released Restful Service running on Smartgears. It implements both FW and FT index functionalitoes

HW requirements

Given codeployment with ElasticSearch ( embedded) it's recommended at least a VM with 4GB RAM and 2 CPUs.

Also open file limit should be raised to 32000

Configuration

Details on the Index Service configuration are available at https://gcube.wiki.gcube-system.org/gcube/index.php/Index_Management_Framework#Deployment_Instructions

ForwardIndexNode ( Dismissed)

The ForwardIndexNode service needs to be codeployed with an instance of CouchBase service

HW requirements

Given codeployment with Couchbase it's recommended at least a VM with 4GB RAM and 2 CPUs.

Configuration

The installation of Couchbase should be performed manually and it depends on the OS ( binary package, rpm, debs).

It's recommended to put an higher limit of the open files on the VM ( 32000 min).

The configuration for the FWIndexNode that should be customized (jndi file):

  • couchBaseIP = IP of the server hosting Couchbase ( so the same as the GHN)
  • couchBaseUseName = the username set when configuring Couchbase
  • couchBasePassword = the password set when configuring Couchbase

Once configured it's needed to initialize Couchbase using the cb_initialize_node.sh script contained into the service configuration folder.

Known Issues

  • Sometimes the cb_initialize_node.sh script fails, it could mean that there is not enough memory to inizialize the data bucket , try to reduce the value of ramQuota in the jndi file.

Known Issues

Tested on ghn 4.0.0 and StatisticalManager service 1.4.0:

  • install the SM on the same network where the database and the used resources are located. Otherwise it would imply to restart production databases because direct access could not be granted to such resources.
  • remove lib axis-1.4.jar from gCore/lib
  • replace the library hsqldb-1.8.jar with the library hsqldb-2.2.8.jar in gCore/lib

GIS Technologies

In order to handle GIS Technologies, developers should rely on libraries geonetwork and gisinterface. Both distributed under subsystem org.gcube.spatial.data. Depending on which libraries are used, different resources are mandatory.

Geonetwork

This sections covers the default behavior of geonetwork library. Please note that clients of the library might override it.

Geonetwork Service Discovery

A single Service Endpoint per Geonetwork instance is needed, you can find more details on the resource here.

Metadata Publication

In order to exploit the library's features to generate ISO metadata, the following Generic Resource is needed in the scope :

  • Secondary Type : ISO
  • Name : MetadataConstants

GeoServer

In order to let gisinterface library discover instances of Geoserver, an Access Point must be defined for each instance. The Service Endpoint resource for such Access Points must have :

  • Category : Gis
  • Platform/Name : GeoServer

Tabular Data Manager
