This document provides a Centos 7 install guide. The guide can be followed for Ubuntu installation or serve as a starting point for installing on other Linux OS.
You should read the Deployment documentation beforehand, in order to understand the components and their roles.

bash

ssh user@<server>
sudo su
#password
cat /etc/centos-release
#CentOS Linux release 7 eller 8

Get the Essentials

bash

sudo yum -y install epel-release
sudo yum install -y htop
sudo yum install -y nano
sudo yum install -y wget
sudo wget https://github.com/bcicen/ctop/releases/download/v0.7.3/ctop-0.7.3-linux-amd64 -O /usr/local/bin/ctop
sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/ctop
sudo yum install -y postgresql

Remove non-essentials

bash

systemctl stop rpcbind.service
systemctl disable rpcbind.service
systemctl stop rpcbind.socket
systemctl disable rpcbind.socket

For Centos 8, remove firewalld and install iptables

bash

sudo systemctl stop firewalld 
sudo systemctl disable firewalld
sudo systemctl mask firewalld
sudo yum install -y iptables-services
sudo systemctl start iptables
sudo systemctl start ip6tables
sudo systemctl enable iptables
sudo systemctl enable ip6tables

Install Docker

On the target machine

bash

sudo yum install -y yum-utils device-mapper-persistent-data lvm2
sudo yum-config-manager --add-repo https://download.docker.com/linux/centos/docker-ce.repo
wget https://download.docker.com/linux/centos/7/x86_64/edge/Packages/containerd.io-1.2.6-3.3.el7.x86_64.rpm
yum install -y containerd.io-1.2.6-3.3.el7.x86_64.rpm
sudo yum install -y docker-ce docker-ce-cli containerd.io
sudo systemctl start docker
sudo docker run hello-world
sudo systemctl enable docker
sudo systemctl status docker
ctrl-c to stop

If target machine has no internet add http(s) proxy to docker

Install Docker Compose

On the target machine

bash

sudo curl -L "https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/download/1.27.4/docker-compose-$(uname -s)-$(uname -m)" -o /usr/local/bin/docker-compose
sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/docker-compose
echo TMPDIR="/opt/compose-tmp" >> /etc/environment
mkdir -p /opt/compose-tmp
echo "export PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH" >> /root/.bashrc
source /root/.bashrc
docker-compose --version
#docker-compose version 1.27.4, build 40524192

Allow inter-docker communication

bash

sysctl net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-iptables=0
sysctl net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-arptables=0
sysctl net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-ip6tables=0
echo 'net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-iptables=0' >> /etc/sysctl.conf
echo 'net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-arptables=0' >> /etc/sysctl.conf
echo 'net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-ip6tables=0' >> /etc/sysctl.conf

Pull software

On the target machine pull some Sirenia software

bash

mkdir /root/deploy
cd /root/deploy

Create a docker-compose file for your specific setup.

bash

nano docker-compose.yml

You could take a base in this example. You must change at least kwanza version, cuesta version and ${HOSTNAME} of your server. You MUST use all small letters in the fqdn. eg. some.sirenia.io

Configure Kwanza

bash

mkdir -p /usr/local/etc/sirenia/kwanza/conf
cd /usr/local/etc/sirenia/kwanza/conf
nano .kwanza.yml

paste this

yaml

users:
  john: d224cfd091471383708424f3e494f8029b456b0e559fe82ee9adb5b66a7f1e55
  martin: d224cfd091471383708424f3e494f8029b456b0e559fe82ee9adb5b66a7f1e55
  jonathan: d224cfd091471383708424f3e494f8029b456b0e559fe82ee9adb5b66a7f1e55

Now pull some software from the repository and try to start the combined setup.

bash

cd /root/deploy
docker login registry.sirenia.io
#dist-<username> / <password>
# ... Login Succeeded
docker-compose up
<ctrl-c> (stop again)

Add a certificate

Kwanza will generate self-signed cert at startup. Alternatively copy valid cert for prod here /usr/local/etc/sirenia/cert It must be a valid x.509 certificate with a full trust chain to a CA in PEM format.

Test

Ok, we are ready to test the complete setup

bash

cd /root/deploy/
docker-compose stop
docker-compose up

Look for errors etc in the logs. Login to Cuesta

https://<FQDN>/
user:john pass:1234

If no errors show up, we are ready to go. Start the setup as background processes.

bash

docker-compose stop
docker-compose up -d

Sirenia Analytics

If you have acquired a license to the Data Driven Operational Intelligence solution Sirenia Analytics, follow the instalation guide here. You can deploy this on the same server as Cuesta and Kwanza (assuming it is sized coorectly), or on is's own. If you install on a new server, you must first install docker and docker-compose as explained above.

Create a docker-compose file for your specific setup (or add to existing).

bash

mkdir /root/deploy-elk
cd /root/deploy-elk
nano docker-compose.yml

You could take a base in this example. You must change at least versions and <FQDN> of your server.

Make sym-links for cert for proxy use

cd /usr/local/etc/sirenia/cert
ln -s key.pem linked_for_nginx.key
ln -s cert.pem linked_for_nginx.crt

Pull the software and initialize folder structure.

bash

cd /root/deploy-elk
docker-compose up

Wait for download of software and start-up of all dockers. Is expected til give errors, as the setup have not been configured yet.

ctrl-c to stop

Configure Elastic Search

To configure Elastic do the following

bash

chown 991:991 elk6/elk-data/
echo "vm.max_map_count=262144" >> /etc/sysctl.conf
sysctl -w vm.max_map_count=262144
cd elk6/conf.d
nano logstash-in-out.conf

Add this to the file

input {
  file {
    #All for debug
    type => "all-manatee"
    path => "/etc/logstash/indata/all.manatee*.log"
    #start_position => "beginning"
    start_position => "end"
    codec => json
  }

      manage_template => false
      index => "all-manatee-perf-1"
    }
  }
}

Configure Nginx Proxy

To configure the Nginx Proxy do the following. Change user and password according to your desired setup

bash

cd ../../nginx-proxy/htpasswd/
yum install -y httpd-tools
htpasswd -nb user password >> <FQDN>

Test

Ok, we are ready to test the complete DDOI setup. Start all dockers

bash

cd ../../
docker-compose up

Look for errors etc in the logs. Login to Sirenia Analytics

http://<FQDN>:81/
user:user pass:password

If no errors show up, we are ready to go. Start the setup as background processes. ctrl-c to stop

bash

docker-compose up -d

Ensure that the containers are running as expected

bash

docker-compose ps

Should produce output showing five containers running un Up state.

Restart Server

You should always finish an install procedure with a complete servere restart, to test that all services starts after a complete host restart

bash

reboot -n
