# How to run this as a systemd service
|
|
|
|
The files in this directory assume that you install ClusterCockpit to `/opt/monitoring`.
|
|
Of course you can choose any other location, but make sure to replace all paths that begin with `/opt/monitoring` in the `clustercockpit.service` file!
|
|
|
|
If you have not installed [yarn](https://yarnpkg.com/getting-started/install) and [go](https://go.dev/doc/install) already, do that (Golang is available in most package managers).
|
|
It is recommended and easy to install the most recent stable version of Golang as every version also improves the Golang standard library.
|
|
|
|
The `config.json` can have the optional fields *user* and *group*.
|
|
If provided, the application will call [setuid](https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man2/setuid.2.html) and [setgid](https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man2/setgid.2.html) after having read the config file and having bound to a TCP port (so that it can take a privileged port), but before it starts accepting any connections.
|
|
This is good for security, but means that the directories `web/frontend/public`, `var/` and `web/templates/` must be readable by that user and `var/` writable as well (All paths relative to the repos root).
|
|
The `.env` and `config.json` files might contain secrets and should not be readable by that user.
|
|
If those files are changed, the server has to be restarted.
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
# 1.: Clone this repository to /opt/monitoring
|
|
git clone git@github.com:ClusterCockpit/cc-backend.git /opt/monitoring
|
|
|
|
# 2.: Install all dependencies and build everything
|
|
cd /mnt/monitoring
|
|
go get && go build cmd/cc-backend && (cd ./web/frontend && yarn install && yarn build)
|
|
|
|
# 3.: Modify the `./config.json` and env-template.txt file from the configs directory to your liking and put it in the repo root
|
|
cp ./configs/config.json ./config.json
|
|
cp ./configs/env-template.txt ./.env
|
|
vim ./config.json # do your thing...
|
|
vim ./.env # do your thing...
|
|
|
|
# 4.: Add the systemd service unit file (in case /opt/ is mounted on another file system it may be better to copy the file to /etc)
|
|
sudo ln -s /mnt/monitoring/init/clustercockpit.service /etc/systemd/system/clustercockpit.service
|
|
|
|
# 5.: Enable and start the server
|
|
sudo systemctl enable clustercockpit.service # optional (if done, (re-)starts automatically)
|
|
sudo systemctl start clustercockpit.service
|
|
|
|
# Check whats going on:
|
|
sudo journalctl -u clustercockpit.service
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
# Recommended deployment workflow
|
|
|
|
It is recommended to install all ClusterCockpit components in a common durectory, this can be something like `/opt/monitoring`, `var/monitoring` or `var/clustercockpit`.
|
|
In the following we are using `/opt/monitoring`.
|
|
|
|
Two systemd services are running on the central monitoring server:
|
|
|
|
clustercockpit : Binary cc-backend in `/opt/monitoring/cc-backend`
|
|
cc-metric-store: Binary cc-metric-store in `/opt/monitoring/cc-metric-store`
|
|
|
|
ClusterCockpit is deployed as a single file binary that embeds all static assets.
|
|
We recommend to keep all binaries in a folder `archive` and link the currently active from cc-backend root.
|
|
This allows to easily roll-back in case something breaks.
|
|
|
|
## Workflow to deploy new version
|
|
|
|
This example assumes the DB and job archive did not change.
|
|
* Backup the sqlite DB file and Job archive directory tree!
|
|
* Clone cc-backend source tree (e.g. in your home directory)
|
|
* Copy the adapted legal text files into the git source tree (./web/templates).
|
|
* Build cc-backend:
|
|
```
|
|
$ cd web/frontend
|
|
$ yarn && yarn build
|
|
$ cd ../../
|
|
$ go build ./cmd/cc-backend
|
|
```
|
|
* Copy `cc-backend` binary to `/opt/monitoring/cc-backend/archive`
|
|
* Link from cc-backend root to recent version
|
|
* Restart systemd service: `$ sudo systemctl restart clustercockpit.service`
|
|
* Check log for issues: `$ sudo journalctl -u clustercockpit.service`
|
|
* Check the ClusterCockpit web frontend and your Slurm adapters if anything is broken!
