JobScheduler currently comes with a proprietary built-in web server. However, it is possible to configure JobScheduler to work with Jetty by using the JobScheduler plugin feature. This document describes what you have to do to run JobScheduler with an underlying Jetty web server.
Installation
...
- Since release 1.3.12.2163 the JobScheduler installer contains a plugin for
...
- Jetty. Note that this plugin is still under development and is provided "as is".
- The installer
...
- generates some symlinks to simulate virtual directories for JOC (JobScheduler Operations Center). The symlink generation is not supported for Windows
...
- systems dated before Windows Vista.
- The installer configures the ./config/factory.ini, the ./config/jetty.xml and the ./config/web.xml files as described below.
...
- The installer does not configure the ./config/scheduler.xml file. If you want to use Jetty then you
...
- have to configure ./config/scheduler.xml
...
- as described below.
...
- The installer contains a keystore file for testing https. This keystore is not trusted and
...
- does not provide the correct hostname, but can still be used for testing.
Please make created your own keystore file jetty.jks.
After the installation you can open JOC with jetty Jetty via:
No Format |
---|
http://localhost: |
...
40444 |
No Format |
---|
https://localhost: |
...
48444 |
You can change modify these ports in the ./config/jetty.xml.<span id"classpath">
If you operate multiple JobScheduler installations for the same host then you have to modify the ports of Jetty accordingly to prevent ports from being used twice.
Configure factory.ini (Put the necessary libraries in the classpath)
To run JobScheduler with Jetty instead the built-in web-server you have to use the Jetty plugin. It is a part of the library com.sos.scheduler.engine.plugins.jetty-xxx.jar. Beside the com.sos.scheduler.engine.plugins.jetty-xxx.jar it is necessary to put the dependend add any dependent libraries for the jetty Jetty plugin into to the classpath of the JobScheduler. The installer put adds them into to the ./lib/jetty_ext folder and add it to the classpath in the ./config/factory.ini file. Unix

</span>
...
Configure scheduler.xml
To use the jetty Jetty plugin you have to configure it in this with the file scheduler.xml:
Code Block | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
<spooler> <config ...> ... <security ignore_unknown_hosts="yes"> <allowed_host host="localhost" level="all"/> <allowed_host host="192.11.0" level="all"/> </security> <span style="color:red"><plugins><plugins> ... <plugin java_class="com.sos.scheduler.engine.plugins.jetty.JettyPlugin"> <plugin.config /> </plugin> ... </plugins></span>plugins> ... </config> </spooler> |
Please note that it is necessary required to specify an empty plugin.config element. </span>
<span id"jetty">
Configure jetty.xml
To run operate JobScheduler with jetty Jetty it is also necessary required to create two configuration files for the Jetty web server (./config/jetty.xml and ./config/web.xml). The minimal declaration minimum configuration defines a connector for the port to communicate for http communication with JobScheduler via http:
Code Block | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
<Configure class="org.eclipse.jetty.server.Server"> <Call name="addConnector"> <Arg> <New class="org.eclipse.jetty.server.nio.SelectChannelConnector"> <Set name="port">44440<>40444</Set> </New> </Arg> </Call> </Configure> |
It is important to know that this port (here 4444040444) is a substitute for the port attribute in the config element of scheduler.xml.
At the moment Currently both ports are required.
SSL Communication Channel
A second connector for the Jetty web server can be used With a second connector it is possible to define a communication channel via https HTTPS (sslSSL):
Code Block | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
<Call name="addConnector"> <Arg> <New class="org.eclipse.jetty.server.ssl.SslSelectChannelConnector"> <Arg> <New class="org.eclipse.jetty.util.ssl.SslContextFactory"> <Set name="keyStore"><SystemProperty name="jetty.home" default="." />/ssl/jetty.jks</Set> <Set name="keyStorePassword">jobscheduler</Set> <Set name="keyManagerPassword">jobscheduler</Set> <Set name="trustStore"><SystemProperty name="jetty.home" default="." />/ssl/jetty.jks</Set> <Set name="trustStorePassword">jobscheduler</Set> </New> </Arg> <Set name="port">8443<>48444</Set> <Set name="maxIdleTime">30000</Set> </New> </Arg> </Call> |
The SSL connection expects the jetty keystore file jetty.jks in the subfolder ssl (under the JobScheduler data folder) $SCHEDULER_DATA/ssl. With the above configuration above you can connect to JobScheduler via https at port 8443.
</span><span ih1. "keystore">48444.
keystore
To generate a keystore file use keytool:
Code Block | ||
---|---|---|
| ||
keytool -genkey -alias jetty -keyalg RSA -keysize 1024 -dname "CN=[hostname], OU=JobScheduler, O=SOS GmbH, L=Berlin C=DE" -keystore my_jetty.jks -storepass jobscheduler -keypass jobscheduler -validity 1826
|
whereas where hostname should be the JobScheduler host.
Use also your Use own values for OU, h1. _ and _O and L. </span>
<span id="web">
Configure web.xml
To run JobScheduler with jetty Jetty it is also necessary required to create two configuration files for the Jetty web server (jetty.xml and web.xml). It has to place in the root of your live folder (not in the config folder).The files have to bestored in the $SCHEDULER_DATA/config folder.
You have to You must configure the JOC servlet with the JobScheduler installation path. Note that you must have to use the file protocol.
For Example:
No Format file:///c:/Program Files (x86)/sos-berlin.com/jobscheduler/[scheduler_id] on Windows
No Format file:///c:/Program Files (x86)/sos-berlin.com/jobscheduler/[scheduler_id] on Linux

Send commands via HTTP (POST|GET)
If you use Jetty and you want to send a command (e.g. <show_state/>
) to the JobScheduler then you have to use the URL:
Code Block | ||
---|---|---|
| ||
http://localhost:40444/jobscheduler/engine-cpp/
|
or respectively.
Code Block | ||
---|---|---|
| ||
https://localhost:48444/jobscheduler/engine-cpp/
|
Example for HTTP GET
Code Block | ||
---|---|---|
| ||
http://localhost:40444/jobscheduler/engine-cpp/<show_state/>
|
Note
- The commands that can be sent via HTTP GET have been restricted from JobScheduler version 1.7 onwards.
- See Release Information for further information.
Jetty configuration examples. User authentication
Simple user authentication
It is possible to configure simple user authentication in the plugin configuration of the scheduler.xml, e.g.
Code Block | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
<plugins>
<plugin java_class="com.sos.scheduler.engine.plugins.jetty.JettyPlugin">
<plugin.config>
<loginService>
<logins>
<login name="testName" password="testPassword" roles="SecurityLevel.all"/>
</logins>
</loginService>
</plugin.config>
</plugin>
</plugins>
|
SecurityLevel.info
and SecurityLevel.all
are predefined roles for JobScheduler.
SecurityLevel.info
allows exclusively permissions to watch jobs but not to start jobs, while SecurityLevel.all
provides the permission to start jobs.
Add a security constraint to the file web.xml like this:
Code Block | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
<security-constraint>
<web-resource-collection>
<url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
</web-resource-collection>
<auth-constraint>
<role-name>SecurityLevel.info</role-name>
<role-name>SecurityLevel.all</role-name>
</auth-constraint>
</security-constraint> |
User authentication with a properties file
Beside the Simple user authentication provided by the Jetty plugin you can use a more complex authentification method described by the Jetty configuration. The example below shows the use of the HashLoginService, a mechanism whose authentication and authorization information is stored in a properties file.
First make sure, that your plugin declaration in scheduler.xml does not contain any authentification information:
Code Block | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
<plugins>
<plugin java_class="com.sos.scheduler.engine.plugins.jetty.JettyPlugin">
<plugin.config />
</plugin>
...
</plugins>
|
In the second step you should define the HashLoginService in your Jetty configuration (jetty.xml) as a user realm. That means that you have to configure at least the location of the properties file containing the user information (userid, password, roles) and assign them a name (here myRealm).
Code Block | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
<Call name="addBean">
<Arg>
<New class="org.eclipse.jetty.security.HashLoginService">
<Set name="name">myRealm</Set>
<Set name="config"><SystemProperty name="jetty.home" default="." />/config/realm.properties</Set>
<Set name="refreshInterval">0</Set>
</New>
</Arg>
</Call>
|
The properties file config/realm.properties contains one or more user definitions, e.g.
Code Block | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
infouser: test, SecurityLevel.info
alluser: test, SecurityLevel.all
|
Please note: In realm.properties you can specify the password like
Code Block | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
alluser: MD5:098f6bcd4621d373cade4e832627b4f6, SecurityLevel.all
|
Hint
- You can use the MD5 Key generated by JOE but you have to modify it to lowercase.
- More information can be found at http://wiki.eclipse.org/Jetty/Howto/Secure_Passwords wiki.eclipse.org/Jetty/Howto/Secure_Passwords
You can execute the password utility mentioned there. You will find the jetty-utilxxxx.jar in $SCHEDULER_HOME/lib/jetty_ext.
Finally you have to configure a security constraint and assign your user realm myRealm to a login configuration. To do this you have to update your web.xml:
Code Block | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
<security-constraint>
<web-resource-collection>
<url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
</web-resource-collection>
<auth-constraint>
<role-name>SecurityLevel.info</role-name>
<role-name>SecurityLevel.all</role-name>
</auth-constraint>
</security-constraint>
|
Code Block | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
<login-config>
<auth-method>BASIC</auth-method>
<realm-name>myRealm</realm-name>
</login-config>
|
SecurityLevel.info
and SecurityLevel.all
are predefined roles for JobScheduler.
SecurityLevel.info
grants exclusively permissions to watch jobs but not to start jobs, while SecurityLevel.all
grants permissions to start jobs.
IP authorization
To restrict the access for specific hosts you have to define an IPAccessHandler in your jetty.xml:
Code Block | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
<Get id="oldhandler" name="handler" />
<Set name="handler">
<New class="org.eclipse.jetty.server.handler.IPAccessHandler">
<Set name="handler"><Ref id="oldhandler"/></Set>
<Set name="white">
<Array type="java.lang.String">
<Item>127.0.0.1</Item>
</Array>
</Set>
</New>
</Set>
|
Note
It is important to store the given handlers in the local variable oldhandler to set them as the handler for the IPAccessHandler (see Jetty handler concept for more details).
You can define a whitelist (as in the above example) or a blacklist. The IPAccessHandler does not allow to use alias names to point to specific IPs.
