PortalInstall
How the machine was prepared
Create a VM in the T2B cloud with 12GB of disk size, 1 CPU, 2GB of RAM, and 2 NICs (one in the public and the other in the private network).
For the disk creation in OpenNebula, we chose a persistent datablock.
Deployment of the machine with Quattor :
- machine-type : grid/base (ui would have been a best choice for grid jobs support)
- filesystem : classic_single_root (see config/filesystems)
- operating system : SL6x
Installation of some extra packages required by gUSE done by adding these lines in the machine profile :
'/software/packages/{java-1.7.0-openjdk}' ?= nlist();
'/software/packages/{java-1.7.0-openjdk-devel}' ?= nlist();
'/software/packages/{xorg-x11-xauth}' ?= nlist();
'/software/packages/{mysql-server}' ?= nlist();
Choice of the version of the portal
After some compatibility tests, we chose to install gUSE 3.6.8 with java-1.7.0-openjdk.
Installation process
We followed the procedure described in the PDF "gUSE_Install_Wizard_Manual_v3.6.8" to the letter, thus using the wizard.
