Apache SOLR

SOLR Installation – High Availability (HA) Mode

This section describes the procedure for installation of Solr in HA mode which is integrated with Zookeeper. This is applicable only for Windows Sever.

For Apache Solr in H.A, configure Zookeeper on at least three different servers because for ZooKeeper cluster to be active, there must be a majority of non-failing machines that can communicate with each other. For this reason, ZooKeeper cluster is usually made up of an odd number of machines. It runs as an ensemble of ZooKeeper servers i.e., Zookeeper cluster. User must integrate Zookeeper cluster with two Solr node running on different servers that are connected with Load Balancer.

Minimum configuration for each of the servers are explained below:

• Windows Server 2016 with 64-bit Processor
• 2 GB of RAM, and 80GB HDD hard drives
• 2 Cores

Installation of Zookeeper

This section describes the procedure for installation of Zookeeper. Please perform the below steps:

1. Download zookeeper-3.6.3.zip file from the path mentioned in the source field of Table 17 – Zookeeper Requirements on all three servers.

1. Copy the zookeeper.zip folder in the desired location and extract it.

1. e.g. - D:\zookeeper
   1. Ensure that Java version 1.8 or higher is configured in the system and JAVA_HOME variable is set. To check the same, open the Command Prompt and type the below command:

   Java -version

   

   1. Proceed with the installation if the Java version is displayed. If not, please install Java as mentioned in section Java.
   2. Go to the zookeeper installation directory where zookeeper was extracted.
   3. Go to <zookeeper_install_dir>/conf folder, rename the zoo_sample.cfg file to zoo.cfg.
   4. Create a folder inside zookeeper directory with name dataDir. For doing this, go inside the zookeeper installation directory, open the Command Prompt as Administrator and type:

   mkdir dataDir

   1. Go to <zookeeper_install_dir>/conf folder and open zoo.cfg file. Change the below parameters and add details of three zookeeper servers. Here you need to select three distinct zookeeper ids for three distinct servers. (Keep it numeric).

   

   1. Enter the same parameter details in zoo.cfg file.

   

2. For Reference, zookeeper will use these ports (2888, 2889,….) to connect the individual follower nodes to the leader nodes. The other ports (3888, 3889,….) are used for leader election in the ensemble. Make sure all these ports must be different from each other.
   1. Go to <zookeeper_install_dir> and open Command Prompt as Administrator and type the below command:

   (echo<Zookeeper Server ID>)>dataDir/myid

3. e.g. – (echo 1)>dataDir/myid
4. This command will create a file inside dataDir folder with name myid and add the server ID. The server ID is a number between 1-255, and it must be unique. Also it must correspond with server.${id} in the zoo.cfg files.

1. In above example followed, there are 3 server IDs 1, 2 and 3. So, for the respective server, it’s zoo.cfg should contain its respective id.
2. Go to the bin folder and open the Command Prompt as Administrator inside <zookeeper_install_dir>.
3. Start Zookeeper by executing the following command:

zkServer.cmd

1. Now Zookeper is running at <IP_address>:<port> (User can change the port in the zoo.cfg file with field name i.e., client Port).
2. User may see some error in the terminal, if other two zookeepers were not started. Ignore this error for now, until all three Zookeeper starts.
3. Configuration is ready for the first Zookeeper node.

Enabling Zookeeper as Windows Service

This section describes the procedure for enabling Zookeeper as a Windows service. Please perform the below steps:

1. Download nssm-2.24.zip file from the path mentioned in the source field of Table 16 – Apache SOLR Requirements and unzip it.

1. Copy nssm.exe from nssm-2.24\win64 to <zookeeper_install_dir >\bin.
2. Go to the bin folder i.e., < zookeeper_install_dir >\bin and open the Command Prompt as Administrator.
3. Execute the below command:

nssm install zookeeper

1. The below window will be displayed.

1. Click Application tab and enter the information as mentioned below:

Path: <zookeeper_install_dir> \bin\zkServer.cmd

Here,

-p for port, you can choose another port

-h for hostname/IP

-s for path where solr.xml and zoo.cfg is present

-SOLR_HOME is solr path till /solr-8.5.0

-z List of comma separated: Zookeeper IP with port

1. Create a folder named iAutomateSolr in the directory path SOLR_HOME\server\solr\configsets.
2. This step requires the two conf folders (that contains schema.xml and solrconfig.xml) from path mentioned in Table 14 – Apache SOLR Requirements . Please reach out to iAuto-Product-Supp@hcl.com to get access to the folder.
3. Copy the two conf folder received to the ‘iAutomateSolr’ folder created in previous steps.
4. Navigate to SOLR_HOME\server\scripts\cloud-scripts. Open the Command Prompt as Administrator and execute the below command for all three Zookeeper servers, for each of the two conf folders with different schema names, respectively.

zkcli.bat -zkhost <ZOOKEEPER_IP>:<ZOOKEEPER_PORT> -cmd upconfig -confname <SCHEMA_NAME> -confdir SOLR_HOME\server\solr\configsets\iAutomateSolr\<CONF_FOLDER_NAME>

For iScrape and iKnowledge: Enter the Solr IP and ZooKeeper Port that has been configured earlier. Set Schema Name as ‘ticketschema’ for Basic Knowledge and iScrape conf folder named as ‘conf_iscrape_knowledge’.
