Installation
Ensure that you got
docker-compose
installed.Code Block root@ubuntu:~# which docker-compose /usr/local/bin/docker-compose root@ubuntu:~# docker-compose -v docker-compose version 1.7.1, build 0a9ab35 root@ubuntu:~#
Extract the installation files
Code Block ~/Downloads ❯❯❯ unzip demoStack-1.0.6.zip ... inflating: demo/init_stack.sh
Execute
init_stack.sh
and follow the instructions. It will automatically pull the required images and files from the azeti repository and set up the basic system.Code Block ~/Downloads/demo ❯❯❯ ./init_stack.sh For this script to work, you need credentials for the DockerHub and you must have read access to the Azeti Organization! Enter DockerHub username and press [ENTER]:
Initial Setup
Organization Setup
- Open a web browser at http://<IP Address of Docker Host>
The setup wizard will guide you through the creation of the initial Organization and Super Admin User
Tip Create a screenshot to memorize the Organization Short Name, Super Admin User and credentials as these are required further on.
WebSocket Configuration
The Web browser of the clients retrieve data through WebSocket protocol. This requires a server side setting matching the IP address of your new azeti Engine.
- Login to the Control Panel, e.g. http
//192.168.207.210/SSCAdminApp#/login (change URL to match your IP address) as Super Admin (user you've created initially).:
- Open System Parameters and search for net.azeti.cloud.mqtt.url Change the parameter to match your
Docker
...
License Upload
Fresh installations of the azeti Engine come without a valid license and will not allow to add further sites.
- To upload a license login as Super Admin
- Open License
- Click + Add and enter the license key without any trailing or leading white spaces and blanks.
- The License Status will change to OK if everything went good
Site Controller Software Upload
This step is optional but recommended. You can do this at a later stage if you don't have the necessary software package at hand. Template validation inside of the Control Panel requires a version of the Site Controller software you'll be using in your environment. It contains the XSD file required for the validation process.
- Login as Administrator into the Control Panel
- Open Config/Provisioning → Controller Software → Software Packages
- Upload the software package, click + Add
The package will be listed after a successful upload.
Tip You can download the package at any time by clicking the button besides the Version column.
...
Stack Administration
The azeti Engine stack comes with a collection of administrative scripts which wrap around docker-compose
. Change into the demo directory to access the scripts.

Starting and Stopping
Use the start and stop script.

Update
You can easily update the full stack with the script, it does a docker-compose pull ...
and fetches the latest application builds. Make sure to create backups before hand.

Log Rotation
Docker will not rotate container logfiles automatically. This can cause high disk usages and large amount of log file data. Check with your Docker Administrator if any log rotation is already configured. Below is an easy approach (based upon this article) for regular rotation using logrotate.
- Create a new Logrotate config file in
/etc/logrotate.d/docker-container
Enter the below configuration
Code Block var/lib/docker/containers/*/*.log { rotate 7 daily compress size=1M missingok delaycompress copytruncate }
Start
logrotate
with the new configurationCode Block logrotate -fv /etc/logrotate.d/docker-container

This article describes the approach further and the above config was found in this good article from Sandro Keil. Read this very good RedHat article for further information on how to identify large docker logs, clear them up and rotate files. |
