  • VMs and Docker
  • Cloud
Installer Platform:
  • Any Linux or OS X platform with SSH support
A Brief Outline of scripts and files included in this project and their function follows:
  • solution_definition_template - A Solution Definition file defines a collection of services and their relationships. It is designed to give you an entire working deployment in one easy to use collection. It can be use in two distinct ways. One is to use it locally ( using Docker or KVM cluster) from your computer, which is useful to initially ensure that your solution works and for experimenting. After you are satisfied with the solution definition file, you can push it to github where it will be available to you and others.
  • build_power_opt_openjdk - A utility file to build optimized openjdk zip file on the installer node - require docker installed.
  • deploy_solution - Downloads, installs, configures, and starts all of the servicess defined in the solution definition file.
  • remove_solution - Remove all servicess defined in the solution definition file.
  • start_solution - Start all servicess defined in the solution definition file.
  • stop_solution - Stop all servicess defined in the solution definition file.
  • solution_status - Display status of all servicess defined in the solution definition file.
  • init_ssh_nodes - A utiltiy script to set ssh passwordless connection to all the nodes defined in the solution definition file.
  • services - Conllection of services contributed by the domanin expert.
  • solutions - Conllection of solutions contributed by the domanin expert.
A Sample Solutions
  • Apache Bigtop v1.2+
    • Hadoop v2.7.3
    • Spark Spark 2.1
    • Zeppelin v0.7.2

Getting The Cluster Ready

  • Create User Account in All Nodes

Example for Ubuntu:

sudo useradd bd_user -U -G sudo -m
sudo passwd bd_user

Example for RHEL/Centos/Fedora:

sudo useradd bd_user -U -G wheel -m
sudo passwd bd_user
  • Set passwordless login

For local host

ssh-keygen -t rsa -P '' -f ~/.ssh/id_rsa 
cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub >> ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
chmod 0600 ~/.ssh/authorized_keys

For other hosts

ssh-copy-id -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub user@host
ssh user@host

Copy authorized_keys to each node

  • Allow login as root ssh (necessary in some scenarios)

Enabling the root account:

sudo -i

To enable the Root account (i.e. set a password) use:

sudo passwd root

Allow root login

sudo vi /etc/ssh/sshd_config

change line to PermitRootLogin yes

Restart ssh service

sudo service sshd restart

It is recommended to disable this again after installation

**IMPORTANT - The username must match service's username defined in the solution definition file **

  • Ensure the root password is the same on all cluster nodes
  • Ensure the username (i.e. bd_user) has the same password on all cluster node.
  • Ensure SSH daemon is running on all the nodes.
  • Ensure the nodes are set for password-less SSH both ways (master<->slaves).
  • It is not necessary to mount the HDDs as the solution-builder can do this. See Installation instructions below.
  • Mapping the nodes - You have to edit hosts file in /etc/ folder on ALL nodes, specify the IP address of each system followed by their host names. Example:
# sudo vim /etc/hosts
Append the following lines in the /etc/hosts file.
192.168.1.1 hadoop-master 
192.168.1.2 hadoop-slave-1 
192.168.1.3 hadoop-slave-2
.....
.....

Solution Prep

Create a solution Definition File

Quick Deployment

  1. Cluster Basic Requirement

Hardware and Software Requirement

a) You need 1 Management or Installer node from which you install and run all jobs Example: spoc8cxeond.aus.stglabs.ibm.com running redhat 7

b) You also need 1 Master node and 1 or more datanodes. Example on a 4 nodes cluster, you need 5 total nodes. — Installer node can be running Ubuntu or Redhat.

c) Install ubuntu 16.04 on all cluster nodes, and setup private network. — Create local DNS for your private network  in /etc/hosts — Add the cluster NODES and installer node’s private ip address to each server in /etc/hosts

Example of Entries in /etc/hosts

10.10.2.10 wlkmaster 10.10.2.11 wlk1 10.10.2.12 wlk2 10.10.2.13 wlk3 10.10.2.9 clustermgmt

IMPORTANT: all nodes must be in the same subnet and private network as in the /etc/hosts entries above

Set Hostname

—Login to each cluster nodes and set the hostname appropriately example to set the masternode hostname to wlkmaster:

$ sudo set hostname wlkmaster

d) Install sshpass

1.1 Identify Hard Disks to format   !Warning! Identify the hard drives available for use for this Spark cluster. Be sure the disks selected do not include the operating system boot disk or any other disk you want to preserve. This operation will reformat the disks selected and erase all data. This has to be done on each node of the cluster.   The following lines describe, for your information, the process of discovering the disks to use by running lsblk. You may need the help of your system administrator to select the disk you want to be part of the hdfs file system of the cluster. Be sure the list does not include the operating system boot disk or any disk you want to preserve.

a) Please run this task on the masternode and each of the datanodes.

As in this example $ sudo  lsblk NAME   MAJ:MIN RM   SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT sda      8:0    1 931.5G  0 disk  ├─sda1   8:1    1     7M  0 part  ├─sda2   8:2    1 893.8G  0 part / └─sda3   8:3    1  37.7G  0 part [SWAP] sdb      8:16   1 931.5G  0 disk  sdc      8:32   1   5.5T  0 disk  sdd      8:48   1   5.5T  0 disk  sde      8:64   1   5.5T  0 disk  sdf      8:80   1   5.5T  0 disk  sdg      8:96   1   5.5T  0 disk  sdh      8:112  1   5.5T  0 disk  sdi      8:128  1   5.5T  0 disk  sdj      8:144  1   5.5T  0 disk  sdk      8:160  1   5.5T  0 disk  sdl      8:176  1   5.5T  0 disk  sdm      8:192  1   5.5T  0 disk  sr0     11:0    1  1024M  0 rom   sr1     11:1    1  1024M  0 rom   sr2     11:2    1  1024M  0 rom   sr3     11:3    1  1024M  0 rom     In the example above: sda is being used for the OS, so it cannot be used. For example all the 5.5T disks [ sdc .... sdm] are good candidates in this case. It is suggested to use disks of the same size.

b) build the disk_list file using the format below

sd[your_firs_disk_id] sd[your_second_disk_id] sd[Your_third_disk_id] ….

c) cp the disk_file to each subdirectory under solution_builder Example: $ cp disk_file to ./solution_builder/common

d) Install sshpass

$ sudo apt-get install sshpass

  1. Building the cluster

a) login to the installer or management node , create a user to manage the cluster. —Exit and log back in with the cluster management user.

b) download the package

$ git clone https://github.com/OpenPOWER-BigData/solution-builder.git  $ cd solution-builder —use the solution_def template file to build your own custom input file using the fields below:

#Service Name, required service, target node IP address, Username_to_RunService, namenode hostname, resourcemanager hostname, spark-master hostname

— create a USER on each cluster node to run services $ init_ssh_nodes.sh Your_Solution_Def_File

$ ./deploy_solution.sh --sd --spark-version

where:
    <spark version> is one of ["1.6.2", "2.1"]
  1. Test cluster functionality

a)Testing Hadoop

$ ssh Cluster_username@wlkmaster "bash -s" < common/hadoopTest.sh 

b) Testing Spark $ ssh Cluster_username@wlkmaster "bash -s" < common/hadoopTest.sh 

——End of installation———

  1. Optional: To uninstall and Reinstall Apache BigTop

a) login to the management or installer node with the cluster management user

$ cd ./solution-builder $ ./remove_solution.sh —sd $ $ ./deploy_solution.sh --sd --spark-version

  • RHEL bug workaround - default requiretty field in /etc/sudoers is problematic Red Hat has acknowledged the problem nad it will be removed in future releases https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1020147 Workaround: Remove below field from /etc/sudoers on all nodes
Defaults requiretty

Installation

Node Requirements

Installer Node Setup

  • download Solution Builder on your name node

    git clone https://github.com/OpenPOWER-BigData/solution-builder.git 
    
    cd solution-builder
  • Use the services/solution_definition_template file to build your own custom solution

  • Add/remove services as needed - Please refer to section "Create a New Solution"

  • Example of solution definition file for deploying Apache Bigtop 1.2 + optimized OPenJDK 1.8 for Power ( must run build_power_opt_openjdk first )

# A Solution Definition File is a collection of services and relationships, designed to
# give you an entire deployment in one easy to use step. Defines the topology of the solution.
# Each line represent a service and is consist of comma-separated fields:
# 1) Service Name
# 2) Space separated list of additional required services to be installed on the same node
# 3) Target node's IP/Hostname
# 4) Service's user name (not root) 
# 5) Configuration and connections values for the service, must be comma-separated.

Solution Management

Deployment

If you are installing for the first time you must deploy the solution.

  • deploy_solution --sd . Solution level arguments are visible to all install.sh and config.sys scripts
./deploy_solution --sd <path to solution definition>
eg.
./deploy_solution --sd solutions/solution_definition_template 

Status of Services

To see which services are currently active

./solution_status --sd <path to solution definition>
eg.
./solution_status --sd solutions/solution_definition_template

Test Hadoop/Spark Services
