The installation mode and node type can be specified during installation via the use of command line arguments (see Running install.sh below).

* Note: The software versions listed above are those installed via the offline installation mechanism. When the infinit.e-platform.prerequisites.online.rpm is used the latest version of each software package (with the exception of Java, Splunk, and Jpackage-utils) are retrieved via yum).

Info

Note that the install bundles on the IKANOW downloads page contain a single script that will install all required RPMs, both in online and offline modes. These "quick install"s are described here.

By default install.sh will create an API Node with all the latest RPMs when you type the following command.

...

Code Block
sh install.sh apinode_latest

#to fix to a specific Infinit.e version, append 
Info

From v0.3 (May 2014) onwards, the default version of elasticsearch used is 1.0. Prior to v0.3, the much older 0.19 was used, which is not compatible with 1.0.

In order to install Infinit.e with the older version (eg if joining a new node to an old cluster) use "sh install.sh old_apinode"
"_v<major>.<minor>" to the node type, eg:
sh install.sh apinode_v0.2 

The Infinit.e version to major (non-backwards compatible) elasticsearch version is as follows:

  • apinode_latest: 1.0
  • apinode_v0.3: 1.0
  • apinode_v0.2: 0.19
  • apinode_v0.1: 0.19
  • (v0.0 no longer supported: 0.18)

(For legacy reasons, "apinode" defaults to "apinode_v0.2")

DB Node

To install a DB Node type:

Code Block
sh install.sh dbnode_latest
 
#to fix to a specific Infinit.e version, append "_v<major>.<minor>" to the node type, eg:
sh install.sh dbnode_v0.2

The Infinit.e version to major (non-backwards compatible) MongoDB version is as follows:

  • dbnode_latest: 2.4
  • dbnode_v0.3: 2.4
  • dbnode_v0.2: 2.4
  • dbnode_v0.1: 2.2
    • (Supported in online mode only - for offline mode you need to download and install the RPM by hand, eg "yumdownloader mongo-10gen-server-2.2.3 mongo-10gen-2.2.3", transfer the 2 RPMs and then use "rpm -i" on the target machine)
  • (v0.0 no longer supported: 2.0)
    • (unlike elasticsearch 0.18, mongodb 2.0 is still compatible with the Infinit.e application layer, but it cannot be installed and is not recommended)

(For legacy reasons "dbnode" defaults to "dbnode_v0.2")
