h2. Set up a crunch-dispatch service
Currently, dispatching containers via SLURM is supported.
Install crunch-dispatch-slurm on a node that can submit SLURM jobs. This can be the slurm controller node, a worker node, or any other node that has the appropriate SLURM/munge configuration.
<pre><code class="shell">
sudo apt-get install crunch-dispatch-slurm
</code></pre>
Create a privileged token for use by the dispatcher. If you have multiple dispatch processes, you should give each one a different token.
<pre><code class="shell">
apiserver:~$ cd /var/www/arvados-api/current
apiserver:/var/www/arvados-api/current$ sudo -u webserver-user RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec script/create_superuser_token.rb
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
</code></pre>
Save the token on the dispatch node, in <code>/etc/sv/env/ARVADOS_API_TOKEN</code>
Example runit script:
<pre><code class="shell">
#!/bin/sh
export ARVADOS_API_HOST=uuid_prefix.your.domain
exec chpst -e ./env -u crunch crunch-dispatch-slurm
</code></pre>
Ensure the @crunch@ user exists -- and has the same UID, GID, and home directory -- on the dispatch node and all SLURM compute nodes. Ensure the @crunch@ user can run docker containers on SLURM compute nodes.
h2. Install crunch-run on all compute nodes
<pre><code class="shell">
sudo apt-get install crunch-run
</code></pre>
h2. Enable Configure kernel cgroup accounting on all compute nodes
Check https://docs.docker.com/engine/installation/linux/ for instructions specific to your distribution.
For example, on Ubuntu:
# Update @/etc/default/grub@ to include: <pre>
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="cgroup_enable=memory swapaccount=1"
</pre>
# @sudo update-grub@
# Reboot
h2. Configure docker
h2. Test the dispatcher
