Installing controller service¶

refs #13497

Add to "upgrading to master" section of doc.arvados.org:

• Create /etc/arvados/config.yml on your API server node, if you haven't already
• Add to /etc/arvados/config.yml:

  Clusters:
    {your-uuid-prefix}:
      NodeProfiles:
        apiserver:
          arvados-controller:
            Listen: ":9004" # choose a port
          arvados-api-server:
            Listen: ":8000" # must match Rails server port in your Nginx config
  

• Create /etc/arvados/environment containing one line, ARVADOS_NODE_PROFILE=apiserver
• Install the arvados-controller package on your API server node
• Update your Nginx configuration so incoming traffic for $ARVADOS_API_HOST is routed to port 9004 (or whichever port you chose for arvados-controller in your config).
  • Add:

    upstream arvados-controller {
      server                  127.0.0.1:9004;
    }
    

  • Update server section that currently forwards traffic to http://api:

     server {
       listen                  [your public IP address]:443 ssl;
       server_name             uuid_prefix.your.domain;
       # ...
       location  / {
    -    proxy_pass            http://api;
    +    proxy_pass            http://arvados-controller;
         # ...
       }
     }
    

Update install docs:

• Add arvados-controller to the list of deb/rpm packages to install
• Create /etc/arvados/config.yml (as above)
• Create /etc/arvados/environment (as above)
• If using systemd, run systemctl start arvados-controller and confirm running status
• If not using systemd, set up a supervised service using runit
