Implementazione di Cisco IoT FND PostgreSQL OVA
Di seguito sono riportate le linee guida per installare Cisco IoT FND release 5.x.x o successive con un software OAV (Open Virtual Appliance) che esegue le versioni 7.x o 8.0 di VMware ESXi.
Fase 1: scaricare l'OAV da Cisco Software Downloads
Scaricare il file OVA dalla pagina del software cisco - Fare clic qui
Passaggio 2: Eseguire il login al client VMware vSphere per installare OAV su un server ESXi.



Dopo aver selezionato l'archivio dati, selezionare il tipo di provisioning e abilitare l'opzione Accensione automatica. Ciò garantisce l'accensione della macchina virtuale al termine del processo di distribuzione. Fare clic su Next (Avanti).
Note
Provisioning spesso
Thin provisioning
-
Lo spazio su disco aumenta in base alla richiesta.
-
L'utilizzo iniziale del disco è di circa 50 GB, in aumento in base alla scala di distribuzione.
Controllare le selezioni prima di fare clic su Fine.

Passaggio 3: Accesso con credenziali
Dopo il completamento della distribuzione di OAV e la visualizzazione della schermata di avvio di Linux, utilizzare le credenziali predefinite seguenti:
Accesso SSH
-
Username: finduser
-
Password: C!sco123
Accesso GUI
-
Username: radice
-
Password: radice123

Passaggio 4: Configurazione della rete
Completare la procedura di configurazione della rete:
-
Assegnare un indirizzo IP statico o accertarsi che un server DHCP sia disponibile per l'assegnazione di un indirizzo IP.
-
Configurare un server DNS valido e raggiungibile nella macchina virtuale host.
-
Riavviare i servizi di rete al termine della configurazione IP.



Aggiornamento di Cisco IoT FND dalla release 5.0 alla release 5.1
Passaggio 1: Scarica il pacchetto di aggiornamento
Scaricare il pacchetto di aggiornamento dalla pagina di download del software Cisco - Fare clic qui
Nome file: CISCO-IOTFND-VPI-K9-UPGRADE-SCRIPTS-5.1.0-155.zip
Fase 2: Esecuzione dei controlli pre-aggiornamento
Prima di procedere con l'aggiornamento, verificare lo stato e le operazioni dei servizi Cisco IoT FND.



Passaggio 3: Copiare l'RPM di aggiornamento nella directory /opt.

Passaggio 4: Esegui il comando di aggiornamento
