COPY-Test JanusGraph Setup & Testing Instructions for RHEL/CentOS7
Single Node Setup Instructions
Pre-requisites
1. Ensure you have the syndeia-cloud-3.3.
${build_number}_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).
Note: If required by your IT department, perform any other standard configuration, server hardening (ie: enabling & configuring local firewall, etc.)
Downloading & Extracting JanusGraph
1. Download Janusgraph 0.31 from https://github.com/JanusGraph/janusgraph/releases/tag/v0.3.1 (ie: wget https://github.com/JanusGraph/janusgraph/releases/download/v0.3.1/janusgraph-0.3.1-hadoop2.zip
)
Note: releases currently seem to be all suffixed with “...-hadoop2...
” despite being applicable for all databases, even cassandra, so download the one suffixed with “...-hadoop2.zip
”
2. Download Syndeia Cloud's JanusGraph setup package from the Downloads page.
3. In the download dir, unzip the JanusGraph package & Syndeia Cloud's JanusGraph setup packages, ie: sudo unzip janusgraph-
0.3.1-hadoop2
.zip -d /opt/ ; unzip syndeia-cloud-3.3_janusgraph_setup.zip -d ~/
Note: if you don't have unzip installed, you may need to first install it via yum install unzip
4. Create a new user and group named janusgraph
, ie: sudo useradd --system --user-group janusgraph
5. Take ownership of the extracted folder, ie: sudo chown -R janusgraph:janusgraph /opt/janusgraph
-0.3.1-hadoop2
JanusGraph Keyspace Setup, Service Setup & Start:
6. In a new terminal session, cd into the bin dir and run the Syndeia Cloud JanusGraph setup script, ie: cd ~/syndeia-cloud-3.3_janusgraph_setup/bin; ./syndeia-cloud-3.3_janusgraph_setup.bash
. This will:
- 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
as /opt/janusgraph
onf/janusgraph-cql-configurationgraph.properties-<
release_ver>/c
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 will also be prompted 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:
$ systemctl status janusgraph ● janusgraph.service Loaded: loaded (/etc/systemd/system/janusgraph.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled) Active: active (running) since Wed 2019-04-17 10:21:59 EDT; 7s ago Process: 22486 ExecStop=/bin/bash -c /opt/janusgraph-0.3.1-hadoop2/bin/janusgraph.sh stop (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS) Main PID: 23677 (java) CGroup: /system.slice/janusgraph.service └─23677 java -server -Djanusgraph.logdir=/opt/janusgraph-0.3.1-hadoop2/bin/../log -Dlog4j.configuration=conf/gremlin-server/log4j-server.properties -Xms32m -Xmx512m -javaagent:
8. To stop/start the Syndeia Cloud services, use sudo systemctl
<action> janusgraph
; where <action> = one of start|stop
. If the service successfully starts you should get the command prompt again.
Note: If you wish to ensure the services run on startup, run sudo systemctl enable
janusgraph
. For more information on installing the .service
files manually and configuring them to start after Cassandra, see Setting up Services to Start on Boot.
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

10. Validate correct operation and create/update an archive image to use as a new base image if the node needs to be rebuilt or if you wish to create a cluster.
Before making the image you may wish to first stop and optionally disable the service temporarily to prevent auto-start on boot, ie: sudo systemctl disable janusgraph
.
Multi-Node (Cluster) Setup Instructions
Enabling your single-node deployment for cluster operation
11. Ensure you first enable Cassandra for cluster operation.
12. Update the Janusgraph syndeia_cloud_graph
configuration via the following Groovy code:
:remote connect tinkerpop.server conf/remote.yaml session :remote console map = new HashMap(); map.put('storage.backend', 'cql'); // should return: ==>null map.put('storage.hostname', 'cassandra.mydomain.com'); ConfiguredGraphFactory.updateConfiguration('syndeia_cloud_graph', map);
Adding new nodes to an existing single-node
13. Deploy another instance of your Janusgraph base image.
14. Make any appropriate changes for the MAC address (ex: in the VM settings and/or udev, if used).
15. Setup forward & reverse DNS records on your DNS server (consult your IT admin/sysadmin if required) and set the hostname and primary DNS suffix on the machine itself (sudo hostnamectl set-hostname
<new_JanusGraph_node_FQDN> where FQDN = Fully Qualified Domain Name, ex: janusgraph2.mycompany.com
)
16. SSH to the IP (or the FQDN of the new node if DNS has already propagated).
Note: If using Fail2Ban, update the sender line in /etc/fail2ban/jail.local
to root@
<new_JanusGraph_node_FQDN>. Restart the fail2ban service (sudo systemctl restart fail2ban
)
17. Verify the Cassandra “datacenter” name (default = dc1
) from the CLI by running nodetool status
and then from Cassandra CQLSH increment the Replication Factor (RF) for your JanusGraph keyspace(s):
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)
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
19. Repeat steps 13 ~ 18 for each additional cluster node.
Validating JanusGraph Operation for 1-node (or multiple nodes)
19. To validate JanusGraph operation, we start a Gremlin client and issue commands to check the edges and vertices in our graph To do this, perform the following steps:
19.1. Open a new terminal window
19.2. Go to the bin folder in JanusGraph installation and type the following command: ./gremlin.sh
. You should see output similar to the below:
$ ./gremlin.sh \,,,/ (o o) -----oOOo-(3)-oOOo----- SLF4J: Class path contains multiple SLF4J bindings. SLF4J: Found binding in [jar:file:/opt/janusgraph-0.3.1-hadoop2/lib/slf4j-log4j12-1.7.12.jar!/org/slf4j/impl/StaticLoggerBinder.class] SLF4J: Found binding in [jar:file:/opt/janusgraph-0.3.1-hadoop2/lib/logback-classic-1.1.2.jar!/org/slf4j/impl/StaticLoggerBinder.class] SLF4J: See http://www.slf4j.org/codes.html#multiple_bindings for an explanation. SLF4J: Actual binding is of type [org.slf4j.impl.Log4jLoggerFactory] plugin activated: janusgraph.imports plugin activated: tinkerpop.server plugin activated: tinkerpop.utilities 20:19:16 WARN org.apache.hadoop.util.NativeCodeLoader - Unable to load native-hadoop library for your platform... using builtin-java classes where applicable plugin activated: tinkerpop.hadoop plugin activated: tinkerpop.spark plugin activated: tinkerpop.tinkergraph gremlin>
19.3. Type the following commands, substituting your appropriate values as required:
: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.
19.4. Type :quit
