• TransferInstallationSetup: To transfer the installer files to the host
  • Before the transfer starts, the preprocessor will create the start script for the Agent instance from the template jobscheduler_agent_instance_script.txt

  • The files that will be transfered are specified with the element <globals><transfer><file_spec=".*\.(sh|gz)$">

  • With this regular expression, the following files will be transfered:
    
    • the JobScheduler Universal Agent installer files: jobscheduler_unix_universal_agent.tar.gz
    • the instance start script: jobscheduler_agent_<port>.sh
    • the installation script: jobscheduler_universal_agent_install.sh
• PerformInstall: To start the installation using SSH.
  • The step before transfered installation script will be executed
  • The installation script will install and start the JobScheduler Universal Agent
  • Finally the post-processing commands will be executed
    • The post-processing commands are stored with the element <installation><postprocessing><command>
    • Three commands will be executed 
      
      • if you have more than three commands, please add the call in the job PerformInstall
    • The default commands will place the Agent start script under /etc/init.d and will setup the autostart for JobScheduler Universal Agent on a Linux server (example for an Ubuntu distribution):
      
      • echo ${ssh.sudo_password} | sudo -S cp ${install_path}/bin/jobscheduler_agent.sh /etc/init.d/jobscheduler
      • echo ${ssh.sudo_password} | sudo -S update-rc.d jobscheduler defaults

...

1. Global parameters:
   • Specify the <install_path> to point to a location where the Agent should be installed.
   • Specify the path to the YADE settings file (.ini file) in the Batch Installer configuration file with the element <globals><transfer><settings>.
   • Specify the credentials for the SSH connection:
     • <user>: SSH login user 
     • <password>: Password for the login user
     • <sudo_password>: Password for sudo actions
     • <auth_method>: SSH authentication method
     • <port>: SSH port 
   • Specify the post-processing commands that fit your operating system on the Agent server with the <postprocessing> element. The default commands will place the Agent start script under /etc/init.d and will setup the autostart for JobScheduler Universal Agent on a Linux server (example for an Ubuntu distribution):
     
     • echo ${ssh.sudo_password} | sudo -S cp ${install_path}/bin/jobscheduler_agent.sh /etc/init.d/jobscheduler
     • echo ${ssh.sudo_password} | sudo -S update-rc.d jobscheduler defaults

   Info
   title Post-processing commands
   The SSH login user has to become root in order to execute these commandoscommands. Therefore the SSH login user should be included to sudoers.

2. Installation parameters (specified for each Agent installation):
   • Agent options:
     • <scheduler_user>: Agent user
     • <scheduler_log_dir>: Logs folder for the Agent
   • SSH Host 

...

You should have opened your YADE settings configuration file yade_agent_batch_installer_settings.xml and have assigned the XSD schema http://www.sos-berlin.com/schema/yade/YADE_configuration_v1.0.xsd. The XML file contains a basic example with recommended values for an Agent installation (of only one Agent).

...

1. Add a <ProtocolFragments> element and nodes for each host that you want to install the Agent for. The best way to add another <ProtocolFragments> element using the XML Editor is copying the element and pasting it to the element above <Fragments>.
2. Add a <Profile> element and nodes for each host that you want to install the Agent for. The best way to add another <Profile> element using the XML Editor is copying the element and pasting it to the element above <Profiles>.
3. The default profile_id is <host>:<port>. If you do not use the default then you have to specify the profile name in the Batch Installer configuration file.
