Overview

This topic explains how to install and set up IoT FND, providing an overview of the required steps and considerations for deployment.

Single-server deployment

Procedure

1.

Log in to the RHEL server that will host IoT FND.
2.

Install Cisco IoT FND.
3.

Set up Cisco IoT FND.
4.

Run the Cisco IoT FND Database Migration Script.
5.

Check Cisco IoT FND Status.
6.

Access Cisco IoT FND.

Deploy a Cluster for High Availability

For HA deployments of Cisco IoT FND, you must repeat the installation and setup steps used for a single-server deployment, but only run the IoT FND database migration script once.

Procedure

Repeat the steps in Single-server deployment for each node in the cluster.

Ensure that you only run the Cisco IoT FND database migration script a single time during the deployment process.

Set up a cluster on CG-NMS

A unique cluster for CG-NMS versions greater than 2.1.x is identified by the tuple (UDP_MULTICAST_ADDR, UDP_MULTICAST_PORT).

Note
HA_PARTITION_NAME is not honored now. However, a new parameter CLUSTER_BIND_ADDR is required and it should be set to the IP address of the server that is reachable by other servers in the cluster.
Note
By default, JBOSS starts forming cluster over 228.11.11.11 and port 45688.
Note
If you have multiple clusters on the same network, you must configure a different multicast IP and Port pair for each of the clusters.

Procedure

1.

Set the following parameters in the /opt/cgms/bin/cgms.conf file on each cluster member:

Example:

CLUSTER_BIND_ADDR=2.2.55.25
                                                UDP_MULTICAST_ADDR=228.11.11.21
                                                UDP_MULTICAST_PORT=45691
2.

Restart all cluster members after updating the configuration.
