Installing Vibe Data Stream Nodes on Remote Systems
Installing Vibe Data Stream Nodes on Remote Systems
To install
VDS Node
s on remote systems in silent mode, use a properties file that contains the installation options. The
VDS Node
remote installer reads the file to determine the installation options.
Navigate to the
remote_node_utils
directory.
Use a text editor to open and change the values of the properties in the
SilentInput.properties
file.
The following table describes the installation properties that you can change:
USER_INSTALL_DIR
VDS Node
installation directory. For example,
/home/$USER/Informatica/2.2.0/vds
ZOOKEEPER_URL
The IP address and port that the
VDS Node
uses to communicate with Apache ZooKeeper.
The IP address and port combination has the following format:
<IP Address>:<port>
You can enter multiple comma-separated IP address and port combinations. If you have configured high availability on ZooKeeper and one instance of ZooKeeper is down, the
VDS Node
connects to the next available ZooKeeper server.
Do not use the http prefix with the IP address and port combination.
SECURE_MODE
Indicates if the secure communication, storage and configuration must be enabled for the VDS Node.
If the value is 0, secure mode is not enabled. If the value is 1, secure mode is enabled.
NETWORK_INTERFACE
Optional. The network interface if you are installing the components on a multi-homed host.
The interface is of the following format:
<IP Address>
. For example, 10.65.43.75
Specify the following properties if you want to enable security:
PC_KERBEROS_ENABLED
Indicate if you want to enable Kerberos authentication. Specify
true
to enable Kerberos authentication.
KERBEROS_KEYTAB_LOCATION
The location to the
vds_node.keytab
file.
PC_TLS_ENABLED
Indicate if you want to enable SSL. Specify
true
to enable SSL authentication.
Save the properties file.
Use a text editor to open the
hostsList
and add the host names or IP addresses of the remote machines, separated by newline characters.
To run the remote installation, use the following command:
./remote-node.sh install
The silent installer runs in the background. The silent installation is complete when the
node-install.out
and
vds-install.out
are created in the
<VDS Node Installation Directory>\node\logs
directory of the remote machine.
The silent installation fails if you incorrectly configure the properties file or if the installation directory is not accessible. View the installation log file in the user home directory of the remote machine. For example,
/home/<username>/silentErrorLog.log
. Correct the errors, delete the files from the directory where the installation failed, and run the silent installation again.
