[livesupport-dev] configure LS for different installs
  • hi dev list,

    one other thing i could not find anywhere in the manual or info supplied
    with the sources, please correct me if i am wrong, but:

    LS can be configured to run on one machine. or two machines (scheduler and
    station) or three machines (scheduler, station, storage). but i have found
    no information on how to adjust the configuration so that the individual
    install flavours can contact each other over the local network.

    please write a couple of lines, i will include it in the manual.

    thanks,

    Hi,

    from storageServer point of view:
    scheduler machine is defined in storageServer/var/conf.php as
    schedulerUrlHost entry.
    It's used when PHP acts as XMLRPC client connected to the scheduler.
    (default is localhost => the same machine for storage and scheduler)

    following is only "as I know":

    on the scheduler side:
    the storageServer machine is defined in scheduler.xml
    (in /etc on installed system) at two places:
    authenticationClientFactory/webAuthentication/location[server]
    and
    storageClientFactory/webStorage/location[server]

    from GTK UI - similarly as scheduler but in gLiveSupport.xml file
    and scheduler machine is defined as:
    schedulerClientFactory/schedulerDaemonXmlRpcClient[xmlRpcHost]

    Yes. Also remind them that after any change in the configuration files,
    you need to restart the scheduler by typing
    /etc/init.d/livesupport-station restart
    as root. If the Studio GUI was running when gLiveSupport.xml was
    edited, that needs to be exited and started up again, too.
