Pre-requisites

1.  Ensure you have the syndeia-cloud-3.4_janusgraph_setup.zip downloaded to your home directory (or home directory's Downloads folder) from the download/license instructions sent out by our team.  

  Note: the .ZIP will pre-create a separate folder for its contents when extracted so there is no need to pre-create a separate folder for it.  

2.  Ensure you satisfy Janusgraph's pre-requisites, ie: have (Open|Oracle)JDK/JRE + Apache Cassandra (& optionally Elasticsearch) installed.  Re. CPU, memory, HD space, etc. this will depend on how much data you expect to store, query, and graph.  

3.  If using a firewall, ensure the following port is accessible (consult your local network admin if required): TCP port 8182 (this is the port to listen to for client connections).

Downloading & Extracting JanusGraph

...

- Create/update janusgraph-current symlink to specified version, default = 0.3.1
- Create a new syndeia_admin superuser in Cassandra with a password you specify
- Create a new syndeia_cloud_graph and syndeia_cloud_graph_config keyspaces
- GRANT ALL PERMISSIONS ON KEYSPACE syndeia_cloud_graph TO syndeia_admin
- GRANT ALL PERMISSIONS ON KEYSPACE syndeia_cloud_graph_config TO syndeia_admin
- Run a Groovy JanusGraph setup script to set storage params for your graph and build indexes
- Create a renamed copy of the file /opt/janusgraph-<release_ver>/conf/janusgraph-cql-configurationgraph.properties as janusgraph-cql-configurationgraph-syndeia.properties with: 

graph.graphname=syndeia_cloud_graph_config
Add storage.username=syndeia_admin
Add storage.password=<password_specified>
storage.hostname=<your_Cassandra_host>

- If you installed Elasticsearch on the same machine, add index.search.backend=elasticsearch and index.search.hostname=localhost to use Elasticsearch for search indexing
- Create a renamed copy of the file /opt/janusgraph-<release_ver>/conf/gremlin-server/gremlin-server-configuration.yaml as gremlin-server-configuration-syndeia.yaml and set ConfigurationManagementGraph to point to janusgraph-cql-configurationgraph-syndeia.properties.  
- Install systemd .service file for JanusGraph service
- Start JanusGraph service

 Note: you may be prompted for sudo authentication,.  you You will also be prompted for your cassandra account password (default = cassandra), to set your syndeia_admin password and the FQDN of your Cassandra host.  

  Avoid any of the following special characters: \?*[]+#&.{}$ when setting your syndeia_admin password.

Managing JanusGraph:

7. To check the status of Syndeia Cloud services, use systemctl status janusgraph.  You can verify that it started by verifying "Active: active (running)" shows up in the output: 

...

9. To view the logs for JanusGraph, use sudo journalctl -eu janusgraph & less /opt/janusgraph-0.3.1-hadoop2/log/gremlin-server.log.  To follow the log files, you can use sudo journalctl -feu janusgraph & tail -f /opt/janusgraph-0.3.1-hadoop2/log/gremlin-server.log.  You should see output similar to the following (abridged) text:

 Note, for your convenience you may wish to create a symlink to /opt/janusgraph-0.3.1-hadoop2/log/ from /var/log, ie: sudo ln -nfs /opt/janusgraph-0.3.1-hadoop2/log/ /var/log/janusgraph

...

17. Three things need to occur:  you will need to change the Snitch (if not already done for Cassandra), alter the keyspace Replication Factor (RF), and run nodetool repair on each node (see https://docs.datastax.com/en/archived/cassandra/3.x/cassandra/operations/opsChangeKSStrategy.html for a summary of the process).

1. Change the Snitch:  see "Switching Snitches":  https://docs.datastax.com/en/archived/cassandra/3.x/cassandra/operations/opsChangeKSStrategy.html

2. Alter the RF:  verify the Cassandra “datacenter” name (default = dc1) from the CLI by running nodetool status and then from Cassandra CQLSH increment the RF for your JanusGraph keyspace(s):
   

   Code Block
   language sql
   ALTER KEYSPACE syndeia_cloud_graph WITH REPLICATION = { 'class' : 'NetworkTopologyStrategy', '<datacenter_name>' : <total_number_of_nodes> }; -- where <datacenter_name> = the name of the datacenter as shown via nodetool status, and <total_number_of_nodes> = total # of nodes (in the cluster) ALTER KEYSPACE syndeia_cloud_graph_config WITH REPLICATION = { 'class' : 'NetworkTopologyStrategy', '<datacenter_name>' : <total_number_of_nodes> }; -- where <datacenter_name> = the name of the datacenter as shown via nodetool status, and <total_number_of_nodes> = total # of nodes (in the cluster)

   
   

3. Run nodetool repair:  Run nodetool repair --full <keyspace_name> on each node (for more details see https://docs.datastax.com/en/dse/5.1/cql/cql/cql_using/cqlUpdateKeyspaceRF.html)

18. Follow  "Things to Consider in a Multi-Node JanusGraph Cluster" https://docs.janusgraph.org/0.3.1/things-to-consider-in-a-multi-node-janusgraph-cluster.html

...

:remote connect tinkerpop.server conf/remote.yaml session
:remote console
graph = ConfiguredGraphFactory.open('syndeia_cloud_graph');
// should return: ==>standardjanusgraph[cql:[cassandra.mydomain.com]]
g = graph.traversal();
g.V();
g.E();

The last 2 commands above should not return any results since the graph (syndeia_cloud_graph) is empty - no vertices or edges.
