HPA Portal installation HPA agent Calypso Agent installation

Prerequisites

Agent is a simple tar archive, ready to be deployed on a filesystem.

  1. Select a filesystem with 500M of free space. This will be the hpa directory, referenced as hpa_agent_dir
  2. calypso_user, the user who lauches Calypso processes, should have access in read, write and execution to this directory.

Installation and update steps

  1. Download and send agent binary on server to download_dir : hpa-agent-calypso-x.xx.zip
  2. Create a directory in a filesystem with 500Mo of free space for hpa_agent_dir : example /opt/hpa/uniqueagent
  3. Log into calypso_user and run (can be one-lined):
unzip {{download_dir}}/hpa-agent-calypso-1.xx.zip -d {{hpa_agent_dir}} ;   
chmod 755 {{hpa_agent_dir}}/*.sh
bash {{hpa_agent_dir}}/deploy.sh 1.xx

Configuration on first installation

  1. Copy the config template file : 
    cd /opt/hpa/uniqueagent
cp hpa_agent_config.sh.template hpa_agent_config.sh
  2. Complete the configuration file : 
    export HPA_EM_HOST=<em host>:5001
export HPA_CALYPSO_ENV=v15-hex1-perf
