Guest OS : Debian 8.4

Kernel : Linux sdo-new 3.16.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.16.7-ckt25-1 (2016-03-06) x86_64 GNU/Linux

h2. Requirements

h3. Configuring production environment

Adding user production

<pre>

# adduser production

# addgroup ias

# adduser production ias

</pre>

h3. Configure /home/production/.profile

Adding environment variables

<pre>

#Modif Herve.B Pablo.A 12/05/2016

PATH="/usr/local/netdrms_current/bin/linux_x86_64:$PATH"

PATH="/usr/local/netdrms_current/scripts:$PATH"

PATH="/usr/local/jmd/bin:$PATH"

PATH="/usr/local/jmd/scripts:$PATH"

#The following is not needed as installed with 'apt-get install' 

#PATH="/usr/local/pgsql/bin:$PATH"

PATH="/usr/local/netdrms-tools/scripts:$PATH"

#2014-12-17 Avec Herve et Pablo on pense que la ligne suivante est intutile as it is f.. install in /usr/local/lib

PATH="/usr/local/cfitsio:$PATH"

#Done

DERBY_HOME=/usr/local/jmd/databases/derby/derbyBD

export DERBY_HOME

export CVSROOT=:pserver:anonymous@solarch.tuc.noao.edu:2401/vtarc1/vso/cvsroot

</pre>

h3. Configure /varl/lib/postgres/.profile

Add to $PATH so postgres can exeute command like initdb

<pre>

#Modif Herve.B Pablo.A 19/05/2016

PATH="/usr/lib/postgresql/9.4/bin:$PATH"

</pre>

h3. Setting privileges for SUMS_MANAGER

Please modify file /etc/sudoers so user 'production' will be able to execute  'sum_chown' that we will locate in the dir : /usr/local/bin . See below

Add to /etc/sudoers the following line :

	production host=NOPASSWD:/usr/local/bin/sum_chmown

h3. Set passwords file for db postgres 

Please create file .pgpass with the following information for user 'production" so he will be able to connect without password as 'production' or 'postgres' to 2 db that we will create later ias_sdo and ias_sdo_sums.

.pgpass content :

<pre>

	#hostname:5432:ias_sdo:production: 

	#hostname:5434:ias_sdo_sums:production: 

	#hostname:5432:ias_sdo:postgres:

su -l -c "/usr/lib/postgresql/9.4/bin/pg_ctl -D /var/lib/postgresql/data_sums start" postgres

su -l -c "/usr/lib/postgresql/9.4/bin/pg_ctl -D /var/lib/postgresql/data_monitor start" postgres

</pre>

h3. Install additional modules

We need dblink for triggers between db so let's install postgresql-contrib-9.4 

<pre>

root@sdo-new:~# apt-get install postgresql-contrib-9.4

</pre>

Create extension dblink for each db 

ias_sdo

<pre>

root@sdo-new:$ psql ias_sdo -p5432 -U postgres

psql (9.4.6)

Type "help" for help.

ias_sdo=# CREATE EXTENSION dblink ;

CREATE EXTENSION

</pre>

ias_sdo_sums 

<pre>

root@sdo-new:$ psql ias_sdo -p5434 -U postgres

psql (9.4.6)

Type "help" for help.

ias_sdo=# CREATE EXTENSION dblink ;

CREATE EXTENSION

</pre>

ias_sdo_monitor

<pre>

root@sdo-new:$ psql ias_sdo -p5436 -U postgres

psql (9.4.6)

Type "help" for help.

ias_sdo=# CREATE EXTENSION dblink ;

CREATE EXTENSION

</pre>

To check the list of installed extensions type :

 <pre>

h2. System tuning

Current configuration :

<pre>

# sysctl -a

</pre>

In the following file :

<pre>

# vi /etc/sysctl.conf

</pre>

we change some values (default values are commented with '#')

(resources links [[Links|here]])

<pre>

# Semaphore is a object that is used to control utilization of a particular process.

# kernel.sem = SEMMSL SEMMNS SEMOPM SEMMNI

# SEMMSL        maximum number of semaphores per array  (min 128)

# SEMMNS        maximum semaphores system-wide  

# SEMOPM        maximum operations per semop call

net.ipv4.tcp_no_metrics_save = 1

# Increase number of incoming connections backlog

# net.core.netdev_max_backlog = 1000

# The tcp_mem variable defines how the TCP stack should behave when it comes to memory usage. ... 

#The first value specified in the tcp_mem variable tells the kernel the low threshold. 

#Below this point, the TCP stack do not bother at all about putting any pressure on the memory usage by different TCP sockets. ... 

#The second value tells the kernel at which point to start pressuring memory usage down. ... The final value tells the kernel how many

# memory pages it may use maximally

# net.ipv4.tcp_mem = 1543347    2057796 3086694

net.ipv4.tcp_mem = 786432 1048576 26777216

</pre>

Then we run the following command to make our change take effect:

<pre>

# sysctl -p

</pre>

Overwriting the existing files in the right place (base/sums/libs/pg) & modif in jsoc_machine.csh

=> the command 'make' works well.

h3. Compilation

<pre>

h2. SSH-HPN install 

Intallation de openssh 7.2p2 car le dernier patch hpn dispo est 7.2hpn14.V10 

web site for open ssh : http://ftp2.fr.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/OpenSSH/portable/openssh-7.2p2.tar.gz

patch hpn : https://sourceforge.net/projects/hpnssh/files/HPN-SSH%2014v10%207.2p2/openssh-7_2_P2-hpn-14.10.diff

In the dir /home/production/sources into  'root'

<pre>

# tar -xzvf openssh-7.2p2.tar.gz

# cd openssh-7.2p2/

# cat ../openssh-7_2_P2-hpn-14.10.diff |patch -p1

# ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/hpn-ssh --with-pam --with-md5-passwords --without-zlib-version-check --with-tcp-wrappers

# make

# make install

</pre>

Depuis sdo :

<pre>

# cd /usr/local/hpn-ssh/etc/

# rsync -av *key* production@sdo-new:/home/production/

</pre>

Following the link : http://vso.stanford.edu/netdrms/rmtsums.html

<pre>

$ cd /home/production/

$ ssh-agent -c > ~/.ssh-agent_rs

</pre>

NB : correct file   ~/.ssh-agent_rs it should look like :

<pre>

#!/bin/csh

export SSH_AUTH_SOCK=/tmp/ssh-9POrTXobhLR4/agent.74272;

export SSH_AGENT_PID=74273;

echo Agent pid 74273;

</pre>

<pre>

$ source ~/.ssh-agent_rs

$ ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_rsa

</pre>

Sur sdo-new :

<pre>

# mv /home/production/*key* /usr/local/hpn-ssh/etc/

</pre>

We have to configure the port number to 55000

<pre>

# vi ssh_config

</pre>

and add :

<pre>

#Port 22

Port 55000

</pre>

We configure also the server hpn (even we don't use it yet)

<pre>

# vi sshd_config

</pre>

and add :

<pre>

#Port 22

Port 55000

#PidFile /var/run/sshd.pid

PidFile /var/run/sshd.55000.pid

# allow the use of the none cipher

#NoneEnabled no

NoneEnabled yes

</pre>

In order to force the use of SSH-hpn by JMD :

<pre>

$ vi /usr/local/jmd/cfg/JMD.cfg

</pre>

and replace the path of scp binary :

<pre>

SCPCommand=/usr/local/hpn-ssh/bin/scp -o NoneSwitch=yes -o NoneEnabled=yes

</pre>

h2. Private key Public key generation 

JSOC need your public key to directly connect to your netdrms server. In order to generate your RSA public/private key pair :

<pre>

$ ssh-keygen -t rsa

</pre>

Not necessary in our case cause we recover the ssh keys of the current server 'sdo'.

However, we have to retrieve the private key of production account on sdo-new

From sdo :

<pre>

rsync -av id_rsa production@sdo-new:/home/production/.ssh/

</pre>

In order to test the connection :

<pre>

$ ssh jsocexp@jsocport.stanford.edu -p55000
