Syndeia Cloud Installation Instructions for RHEL/CentOS/Alma Linux 7-8

Syndeia Cloud Installation Instructions for RHEL/CentOS/Alma Linux 7-8

Single Node Setup Instructions:

 


Pre-requisites:

1.  Ensure you have the syndeia-cloud-3.5.zip (or the latest service pack) 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. Review Syndeia Cloud's recommendations, ie: (Open|Oracle)JDK/JRE, memory, FS selection, params, etc. in Deployment.  

  Note:  Syndeia Cloud can be deployed on a different machine VS Cassandra but these steps will focus on a single-node deployment.  

3. Decide if you wish to configure Java JRE/JDK for JMX monitoring or not (for example, if you wish to monitor via Grafana). 

4. If using a firewall, ensure the following port(s) are accessible from client machines (consult your local network admin if required): TCP port 9000 (HTTP), 9443 (HTTPS). 

 If you will be using JMX monitoring, the following additional ports will also need to be accessible (NOT necessarily externally) from where you will run monitoring.

Downloading & Extracting Syndeia Cloud:

1. SSH to your designated Syndeia Cloud server

2. Set an environment var for the build version, ex:  new_build_version=3.5 ; export new_build_version

3. Create a new user and group named syndeia-cloud, ie:  sudo useradd --system --user-group syndeia-cloud 

  Note, if you've already enabled JMX, per the previous section, you may have already created this.  

4. Run umask to ensure your user umask is set to 0002 and root's umask is set to 0022.  If not, set it, ie:  umask 0002, and then su && umask 0022

5. cd into the directory where you downloaded the Syndeia Cloud .ZIP

6. Unzip the main package, ie:  unzip syndeia-cloud-${new_build_version}.zip

  Note: if you don't have unzip installed, you may need to first install it via yum install unzip

  IMPORTANT:  please ensure you have enabled JMX monitoring per Appendix C3.5 (if for whatever reason you do not wish to use JMX, you can disable it pre or post SC setup via the steps in Appendix C3.6).
