Introduction#
This document describes the general approach for deploying LUNA PLATFORM in Docker containers.
This document includes an example of LUNA PLATFORM deployment. It implements LUNA PLATFORM minimum power operating for demonstration purposes and cannot be used for the production system.
It is considered that deployment is performed on the server with Almalinux 8 OS, where LP was not installed.
To deploy the LUNA PLATFORM, follow the steps in the following sections:
- "Before launch" — Actions for unpacking archives, preparing directories, configuring licenses, etc. Some actions may be optional.
- "Services launch" — Launching Docker containers with LUNA PLATFORM services.
The "Additional Information" section provides useful information on describing service launch parameters, Docker commands, enabling Grafana for monitoring visualization, etc.
A network license is required to use the LUNA PLATFORM in Docker containers. The license is provided by VisionLabs on request separately from the delivery. The license key is created using the fingerprint of the system. This fingerprint is created based on information about the hardware characteristics of the server. Thus, the received license key will work only on the same server from which the system fingerprint was obtained. LUNA PLATFORM can be activated using one of two utilities — HASP or Guardant. The section "Activate license" provides useful links to instructions for activating the license key for each method.
Firewall and SELinux should be manually configured on the server by the administrator. Their configuration is not described in this document.
No data backup or databases replication is implemented for LP data in this installation.
This document does not include a tutorial for Docker usage. Please refer to the Docker documentation to find more information about Docker:
It is recommended to use orchestration services for the commercial usage of LP. Their utilization is not described in this manual.
All the provided commands should be executed using the Bash shell (when you launch commands directly on the server) or in a program for working with network protocols (when you remotely connect to the server), for example, Putty.
A license file is required for LUNA PLATFORM activation. The file is provided by VisionLabs separately upon request.
All actions described in this manual must be performed by the root user. This document does not describe the creation of the user with administrator privileges and the following installation by this user.
