How To Setup Elasticsearch 6.4 On RHEL/CentOS 6/7?

What is Elasticsearch? Elasticsearch is a search engine based on Lucene. It is useful in a distributed environment and helps in a multitenant-capable full-text search engine. While you query something from Elasticsearch it will provide you with an HTTP web interface and schema-free JSON documents. it provides the ability for full-text search. Elasticsearch is developed in Java and is released as open-source under the terms of the Apache 2 license. Scenario: 1. Server IP: 192.168.56.101 2. Elasticsearch: Version 6.4 3. OS: CentOS 7.5 4. RAM: 4 GB Note: If you are a SUDO user then prefix every command with sudo, like #sudo ifconfig With the help of this guide, you will be able to set up Elasticsearch single-node clusters on CentOS, Red Hat, and Fedora systems. Step 1: Install and Verify Java Java is the primary requirement for installing Elasticsearch. So, make sure you have Java installed on your system. # java -version openjdk version "1.8.0_181" OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_181-b13) OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.181-b13, mixed mode) If you don’t have Java installed on your system, then run the below command # yum install java-1.8.0-openjdk Step 2: Setup Elasticsearch For this guide, I am downloading the latest Elasticsearch tar from its official website so follow the below step # wget https://artifacts.elastic.co/downloads/elasticsearch/elasticsearch-6.4.2.tar.gz # tar -xzf elasticsearch-6.4.2.tar.gz # tar -xzf elasticsearch-6.4.2.tar.gz # mv elasticsearch-6.4.2 /usr/local/elasticsearch Step 5: Permission and User We need a user for running elasticsearch (root is not recommended). # useradd elasticsearch # chown -R elasticsearch.elasticsearch /usr/local/elasticsearch/ Step 6: Setup Ulimits Now to get a Running system we need to make some changes of ulimits else we will get an error like “max number of threads for user is too low, increase to at least ” so to overcome this issue make below changes you should run. # ulimit -n 65536 # ulimit -u 2048 Or you may edit the file to make changes permanent # vim /etc/security/limits.conf elasticsearch - nofile 65536 elasticsearch soft nofile 64000 elasticsearch hard nofile 64000 elasticsearch hard nproc 4096 elasticsearch soft nproc 4096 Save files using :wq Step 7: Configure Elasticsearch Now make some configuration changes like cluster name or node name to make our single node cluster live. # cd /usr/local/elasticsearch/ Now, look for the below keywords in the file and change according to you need # vim conf/elasticsearch.yml cluster.name: kapendra-cluster-1 node.name: kapendra-node-1 http.port: 9200 to set this value to your IP or make it 0.0.0.0 ID needs to be accessible from anywhere from the network. Else put your IP of localhost network.host: 0.0.0.0 There is one more thing if you have any dedicated mount pint for data then change the value for #path.data: /path/to/data to your mount point.

Your configuration should look like the above. Step 8: Starting Elasticsearch Cluster As the Elasticsearch setup is completed. Let the start Elasticsearch cluster with elastic search user so first switch to elastic search user and then run the cluster # su - elasticsearch $ /usr/local/elasticsearch/bin/elasticsearch 22278 Step 9: Verify Setup You have all done it, just need to verify the setup. Elasticsearch works on port default port 9200, open your browser to point your server on port 9200, You will find something like the below output http://localhost:9200 or http://192.168.56.101:9200 at the end of this article, you have successfully set up Elasticsearch single node cluster. In the next few articles, we will try to cover a few commands and their setup in the docker container for development environments on local machines. Read the full article

#leapp #linux #upgraderhel7 #rhel8 #centos Upgrade RHEL 7 to RHEL 8 using Leapp - Resolving high risks from leapp-report.txt and answerfile If you are working with Linux environment, you must have once in your carrier ended up with the upgradation of rhel servers. We use leapp module to upgrade rhel servers perform the following steps: 1. install leapp in your rhel 7 - yum install leapp -y 2. upgrade using leapp - leapp upgrade --reboot 3. check all the risks which are high inhibitor if there is some issues which prevent upgradation. Low risk or medium risk can be remediate after the upgradation also. 4. Answer all the answers in the answerfile 5. Check the redhat version installed - cat /etc/redhat-release it will show you the upgraded version of rhel Analyzing the Leapp Report The /var/log/leapp/leapp-report.txt identifies potential risks to the upgrade. The risks are classified as high, medium, or low. A high risk that would prevent an upgrade will be further classified as an inhibitor. The report summarizes the issues behind the identified risk and also suggests remediations if any are needed. Ensure that you complete the recommended remedies to clear particularly those risks that are labeled high and can inhibit the upgrade process. After addressing the reported risks, run the preupgrade command again. In the regenerated report, verify that all serious risks are cleared. In addition to completing the recommendations of /var/log/leapp/leapp-report.txt, you must also provide answers to all of the items in /var/log/leapp/answerfile. An inhibitor might be reported both in /var/log/leapp/answerfile and /var/log/leapp/leapp-report.txt, with the latter file providing an alternative remedy. Despite overlapping contents, always examine both files to ensure a successful upgrade. The /var/log/leapp/answerfile file consists of specific verification checks that Leapp performs on the system. A verification check contains information about the system and also prompts you for confirmation on the action to be performed. The file provides context and information to help guide you on the response required. red hat enterprise linux leapp upgrade to rhel 8 upgrade from rhel 7 migrate rhel rhel 8 rhel 7 Upgrade RHEL 7 to RHEL 8 using Leapp, Upgrade from Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 to 8 with Leapp, Upgrading from RHEL 7 to RHEL 8, How to Upgrade from RHEL 7 to RHEL 8, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 to 8 In-Place Upgrade Using Leapp, Upgrading the system from RHEL 7 to RHEL 8 using Leapp, Upgrade Linux Server From RHEL7 To RHEL8, Upgrading from RHEL7 to RHEL8, Leapp: Red Hat tool to upgrade from RHEL7 to RHEL8, Upgrade RHEL 7 to RHEL 8 in place using LEAPP, How do I migrate from RHEL7 to 8 How do I upgrade RHEL to a specific version?

AlloyDB Omni Version 15.7.0 Improves PostgreSQL Workflows

AlloyDB Omni boosts performance with vector search, analytics, and faster transactions.

With its latest release AlloyDB Omni version 15.7.0, AlloyDB Omni is back and is significantly improving your PostgreSQL workflows. These improvements include:

Quicker performance

A brand-new, lightning-fast disk cache

A better columnar engine

The widespread use of ScANN vector indexing

The AlloyDB Omni Kubernetes operator has been updated.

In your data center, on the edge, on your laptop, in any cloud, and with 100% PostgreSQL compatibility, this update offers on all fronts, from transactional and analytical workloads to state-of-the-art vector search.

AlloyDB Omni version 15.7.0 is now broadly accessible (GA). The following updates and features are included in version AlloyDB Omni version 15.7.0:

AlloyDB Version 15.7 of PostgreSQL is supported by Omni.

Previously known as postgres_scann, the alloydb_scann extension is now generally available (GA).

There is generally available (GA) support for Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 8.

You can preview the AlloyDB Omni columnar engine on ARM.

Because disk cache and columnar storage cache speed up data access for AlloyDB Omni in a container and on a Kubernetes cluster, they can enhance AlloyDB Omni performance.

It has applied security updates for CVE-2023-50387 and CVE-2024-7348.

The documentation for the AlloyDB Omni Reference is accessible. This comprises AlloyDB Omni 15.7.0 metrics, database flags, model endpoint management reference, and extension documentation.

AlloyDB The pg_ivm extension, which offers incremental view maintenance for materialized views, is compatible with Omni.

Numerous efficiency enhancements and bug fixes.

Let’s get started.

Improved performance

When compared to regular PostgreSQL, many workloads already experience an improvement. For transactional workloads, AlloyDB Omni outperforms regular PostgreSQL by more than two times in performance testing. The majority of the tuning is done automatically for you without the need for additional setups. The memory agent that maximizes shared buffers while preventing out-of-memory issues is one of the main benefits. AlloyDB Omni generally runs better with more memory configured because it can serve more queries from the shared buffers and eliminate the need for disk calls, which can be significantly slower than memory, especially when utilizing durable network storage.

An extremely fast disk cache

The introduction of an ultra-fast disk cache also made the trade-off between memory and disk storage more flexible. As an extension of Postgres’ buffer cache, it enables you to set up a quick, local, and perhaps brittle storage device. AlloyDB Omni can store a copy of not-quite-hot data in the disk cache, where it can be accessed more quickly than from the permanent disk, rather than aging out of memory to create room for new data.

Improved columnar engine

The analytics accelerator from AlloyDB Omni is revolutionizing mixed workloads. Because it eliminates the need to manage additional data pipelines or databases, developers are finding it helpful for extracting real-time analytical insights from their transactional data. To speed up queries, you can instead activate the columnar engine, allocate a piece of your memory to it, and let AlloyDB Omni to choose which tables or columns to load in the columnar engine. The columnar engine outperforms regular PostgreSQL by up to 100x in our benchmarks for analytical queries.

The amount of RAM you can allocate to the columnar engine dictates the analytics accelerator’s practical size limit. The ability to set up a quick local storage device for the columnar engine to spill to is a new feature. This expands the amount of data on which you may do analytical queries.

SCaNN becomes GA

Finally, AlloyDB Omni already provides excellent performance with pgvector utilizing either the ivf or hnsw indexes for vector database use cases. Vector indexes, however, can be slow to build and reload even though they are a terrific method to speed up queries. It added the ScaNN index as an additional index type at Google Cloud Next 2024. The ScaNN index from AlloyDB AI provides up to 4 times faster vector queries than the HNSW index used in ordinary PostgreSQL. ScaNN offers substantial benefits for practical applications beyond only speed:

Rapid indexing: With noticeably quicker index build times, you may expedite development and remove bottlenecks in large-scale deployments.

Optimized memory usage: Cut memory usage by three to four times as compared to PostgreSQL’s HNSW index. This improves performance for a variety of hybrid applications and enables larger workloads to operate on smaller hardware.

In general, AlloyDB AI ScANN indexing is accessible as of AlloyDB Omni version 15.7.0.

A fresh Kubernetes administrator

Google Cloud has published version 1.2.0 of the AlloyDB Omni Kubernetes operator in addition to the latest version of AlloyDB Omni. With this release, you can now configure high availability to be enabled when a disaster recovery secondary cluster is promoted to primary, add more configuration options for health checks when high availability is enabled, and use log rotation to help manage the storage space used by PostgreSQL log files.

Version 1.2.0 of the AlloyDB Omni Kubernetes operator is now broadly accessible (GA). The following new features are included in version 1.2.0:

The interval between health checks can be set in seconds using the healthcheckPeriodSeconds option.

You can keep an eye on your database container’s performance with the following metrics. These measurements are all type gauge.

A database container’s memory limit is displayed by alloydb_omni_memory_limit_byte.

All replicas connected to the AlloyDB Omni primary node are shown in alloydb_omni_instance_postgresql_replication_state.

The database container’s memory usage is displayed in bytes via alloydb_omni_memory_used_byte.

When the following is true, a problem that briefly disrupted all database clusters has been resolved:

The AlloyDB Omni Kubernetes operator version 1.1.1 is being upgraded to a more recent version.

Version 15.5.5 or higher of the AlloyDB Omni database is what you’re using.

AI for AlloyDB is not activated.

Once promoted, high availability is supported on a secondary database cluster.

Model endpoint management can be enabled or disabled using Kubernetes manifests.

By setting thresholds depending on the size of the log files, the amount of time since the log file last rotated, or both, you may control when logs rotate.

To examine and troubleshoot the memory performance of the AlloyDB Omni Kubernetes operator, you can take a snapshot of its memory heap.

Note: Parameterized view features were accessible via the alloydb_ai_nl extension of AlloyDB Omni versions 15.5.5 and earlier. The parameterized_views extension, which you must develop before using parameterized views, contains the parameterized view features starting in AlloyDB Omni version 15.7.0. The associated function, google_exec_param_query, has also been renamed to execute_parameterized_query and is accessible through the parameterized_views extension as of AlloyDB Omni version 15.7.0.

mandrake (yes, I'm old)

not a linux fuckup because it was freebsd but I fucked up my full disk encryption and didn't have backups (backups are good mkay)

no, but I have rather thoroughly eradicated my ~ before which is what people care about most (this is separate to the incident above)

this machine dual-boots macos (hooray tier1 aarch64-apple-darwin!) and asahi, otherwise I haven't dual-booted for aaaaaages, I think the last time I dual-booted windows server 2003 was still a thing (see also I'm old)

I have in the past on various machines (mostly on BSD because the default shell is unpleasant and designed for the 1980s), generally stick with the default bash nowadays though as I'm more Linux-focused

no, I use it every day for work and for personal (even non-programming) projects

A 150 MHz Pentium (no bloody II, III, OR IV) with 32 MB RAM and... 8 GB ATA hard drive? I think? Not the first machine I used Linux on, though, that would be a then-friend's Red Hat (before it became RHEL) machine sometime in the late 90s over ... goodness, was it really telnet?

yes, I use neovim every day, I even use macros regularly

rustc obviously, but more seriously maybe wayland? yeah I know it's not actual software and is a set of protocols but like it's enabled so much actual software that I think it needs recognition. or maybe pipewire? it's solved many issues with linux audio, at least for me, and it's been crucial in making audio under asahi possible

the shell. I HATE THE SHELL. it's so obtuse and baroque and deceptively complicated and I offer a correction for the above, it's designed for 1970 and it's so easy to make a footgun. anything more complicated than "for dick in butts; do insert --dick --butts; done" and I immediately go to pyth--errr rust :) seriously, if we could all move on to something better, that would be lovely. my shell config files are deliberately simple because there's chthonic horrors lurking mere nanometers beneath the surface and I just want to run ls and cp and cargo without awakening Nyarlathothep

I wish there was more organization in the community instead of reinventing things like package managers, but that's nothing compared to the just icky toxicity and bigotry that keeps so many wonderful people from getting started, so many people whose different views and ideas we desperately need

me from 10 years ago would disown me from the present if I said this to her but I'm actually liking fedora? I started with asahi as my first redhat distro (no, really, mandrake doesn't count as it was its own thing) after arch linux arm imploded and thought I'd hate it but I'm quite liking it! so much I put it on my router. thinking of replacing my media center machine (debian stable) with it. server is, at least for me, the right balance between the "could send it to the moon" stability of debian and the "installing new packages every day genuinely gives me dopamine" of arch. my workstation will stay on arch, though, fedora doesn't have the packages for everything I want and I want to stick as close to what valve is doing with the steam deck as possible

definitely xenia, I identify a lot more with her and her creators than I do tux and his

oh wow where to start. pico, nano, pine, elm, GNU screen, perl, x11, audacity, (t)csh, goodness the list is endless. name a piece of software you use (especially shell stuff) and I have opinions about it

hours of yak shaving amortized over the life of the machine (though far fewer than when I ran gentoo)

compiled and used the version I built, on my own, not part of a package manager or the like? goodness, not recently, where by not recently I mean not since... 2.6.something?. compiled in general? yes, I keep a recent clone around and compile it regularly to populate compile_commands.json to feed into my LSP server to explore the kernel code

Linux ask game

1 - what was your first distro? 2 - what was your biggest linux fuckup? 3 - have you ever run rm / on real hardware? 4 - do you dual boot or have a secondary machine with windows? 5 - did you change your default shell? 6 - are you afraid of git? 7 - what was the first machine you installed linux on? 8 - do you know your way around vim keybinds? 9 - what is your favourite non-os software? 10- biggest linux pet peeve? 11- biggest annoyance with the community? 12- do you like your current distro? 13- Xenia or Tux? 14- what software are you never using again? 15- stock distro or hours of yak shaving? 16- have you compiled the kernel?
