Prerequisites

  • You have installed OceanBase Deployer (obd) (latest version recommended) on your server. For more information, see Install obd.

  • The user and server resources for OCP deployment meet the requirements. For more information, see Installation planning.

  • Your server can connect to the Internet, or the local image repository of obd contains the installation packages required for deployment.

    You can run the obd mirror list local command to query the installation packages in the local image repository. If obd is installed by using the OceanBase All in One package, the local image repository contains all installation packages required for deployment by default.

  • You have installed the clockdiff command.

  • Your account has the privilege to run the sudo command without a password.

Note

This topic assumes that the server mentioned in this topic can connect to the Internet or the required software programs such as OceanBase Database, OceanBase Database Proxy (ODP), and OCP are installed on the server.

Configuration files

obd provides sample configuration files for deploying OCP. You can modify the files based on your server resources.

  • If you have installed obd by downloading the RPM package for obd, you can view the sample configuration files in the /usr/obd/example directory.

  • If you have installed obd by using the all-in-one installation package, you can view the sample configuration files in the ~/.oceanbase-all-in-one/obd/usr/obd/example directory.

  • You can also view the sample configuration files on GitHub.

obd provides the following sample configuration files for deploying OCP:

  • Sample configuration file for separate deployment of OCP: ocp-only-example.yaml

  • Sample configuration file for distributed deployment of ODP and OCP: distributed-with-obproxy-and-ocp-example.yaml

Procedure

This section describes how to deploy OCP separately and deploy OCP together with OceanBase Database.

  • When you deploy OCP separately, you must first create the MetaDB and corresponding tenants (ocp_meta and ocp_monitor) for OCP. For more information, see Deploy OceanBase Database on a single server or Deploy an OceanBase cluster on the GUI. You can create a tenant manually or by using an obd command as needed. For more information about how to manually create a tenant, see Create a tenant. For more information about how to create a tenant by using an obd command, see the obd cluster tenant create section in Cluster commands.

  • When you deploy OCP together with OceanBase Database, you can specify information about OceanBase Database and OCP in the configuration file. When OCP is started, OceanBase Database is started as its MetaDB as configured.

Deploy OCP separately
Deploy OCP together with OceanBase Database
  1. Create a configuration file.

    Run the following command to create a configuration file. Here, ocp-only-example.yaml is used as an example, and you can customize the file name.

    vim ocp-only-example.yaml
    
  2. Modify user information.

    Copy and paste the following content to the file and modify the parameters as needed.

    ## Only need to configure when remote login is required
    user:
      username: admin
    #   password: your password if need
      key_file: /home/admin/.ssh/id_rsa
    #   port: your ssh port, default 22
    #   timeout: ssh connection timeout (second), default 30
    

    username specifies the username of the account used to log in to the target server. Make sure that this account has the write permission on the home directory. password and key_file are used for user authentication. Generally, you need to specify only one of them.

    Notice

    After you specify the path of the key, comment out or delete the password parameter if your key does not require a password. Otherwise, the value of the password parameter will be taken as the password of the key and used for login, leading to a login verification failure.

  3. Modify OCP configurations.

    Copy and paste the following content to the file and modify the parameters as needed. For more information about the parameters, see the Parameters section in Configuration files.

    ocp-server-ce:
      version: 4.2.2
      # package_hash: 84a65bf0ec004e73b772938696b2b896a0ef2b2f
      # release: 20240315150922.el7

        ocp_meta_tenant:
          tenant_name: ocp_meta

          memory_size: 4G
        ocp_meta_username: root
        ocp_meta_password: ********
        ocp_meta_db: meta_database
        ocp_monitor_tenant:
          tenant_name: ocp_monitor
          max_cpu: 2.0
          memory_size: 4G
        ocp_monitor_username: root
        ocp_monitor_password: ********
        ocp_monitor_db: monitor_database
    
  4. Deploy OCP.

    obd cluster deploy ocp -c ocp-only-example.yaml
    

    ocp specifies the cluster name. You can use a custom name as needed. After OCP is deployed, the command returns a start command, as shown below:

    ocp deployed
    Please execute ` obd cluster start ocp ` to start
    Trace ID: 4e444844-0211-11ef-8e69-00163e0808cc
    If you want to view detailed obd logs, please run: obd display-trace 4e444844-0211-11ef-8e69-00163e0808cc
    
  5. Start OCP.

    obd cluster start ocp
    

    After OCP is started, the command returns the login information of OCP, as shown below:

    +----------------------------------------------------------+
    |                      ocp-server-ce                       |
    +---------------------------+----------+----------+--------+
    | url                       | username | password | status |
    +---------------------------+----------+----------+--------+
    | http://10.10.10.1:8080    | admin    | ******** | active |
    +---------------------------+----------+----------+--------+
    ocp running
    Trace ID: ed5a1f4c-0218-11ef-bda1-00163e0808cc
    If you want to view detailed obd logs, please run: obd display-trace ed5a1f4c-0218-11ef-bda1-00163e0808cc
    

Step 1: Create a configuration file

Run the following command to create a configuration file. Here, distributed-ocp.yaml is used as an example, and you can customize the file name.

vim distributed-ocp.yaml

Step 2: Modify the configuration file

  1. Modify user information.

    Copy and paste the following content to the file and modify the parameters as needed.

    ## Only need to configure when remote login is required
    user:
      username: admin
    #   password: your password if need
      key_file: /home/admin/.ssh/id_rsa
    #   port: your ssh port, default 22
    #   timeout: ssh connection timeout (second), default 30
    

    username specifies the username of the account used to log in to the target server. Make sure that this account has the write permission on the home directory. password and key_file are used for user authentication. Generally, you need to specify only one of them.

    Notice

    After you specify the path of the key, comment out or delete the password parameter if your key does not require a password. Otherwise, the value of the password parameter will be taken as the password of the key and used for login, leading to a login verification failure.
