Veritas Data Insight Installation Guide

To install the worker node

1. Run the following command to launch the installer package:

   sh Veritas_DataInsight_linux_7_0_0_N_RHEL9_x64.sh

   where N is the build number.

2. Welcome to the Veritas Data Insight Setup Wizard appears. Click Next.
3. In the License Agreement window, select I accept the agreement, and click Next.
4. In the Configure Type of Install, select Classification Server or Collector, depending on the type of installation.
5. Enable FIPS Mode? Yes [y], No [n]

   FIPS are standards and guidelines for federal computer systems that are developed by National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in accordance with the Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA) and approved by the Secretary of Commerce. Choice of FIPS mode should be same for Management server and Worker nodes. You can enable FIPS mode only during fresh product installation or upgrade. You will not be able to make any changes post product installation or upgrade.

6. In the Select Destination Directory window, browse to the directory in which you want Classification Server or Collector to be installed. By default, the destination directory is /opt/DataInsight. Click Next.
7. In the Configure Data Directory window, browse to the location where you want to store the product data. Select a location with enough free space, permissions, and high-performance disks.
8. In the Worker Node address window, enter the Fully Qualified Host Name (FQHN) or IP address of the host. Ensure that the Management Server and the other worker nodes are able to resolve this hostname.
9. In the Configure Networking window, enter the following information:

   Communication Service Port	See About Communication Service.
   Configuration Service Port	Configuration service is a process that provides interface to configuration and other product data stored on the local system. This service port does not need to be accessible outside the host machine.

   Note:

   The installer validates whether the appropriate ports are free to accept connections.

10. To register the worker node with the Management Server after you exit setup, select the Launch Worker Node Registration Wizard after exit checkbox.

    See Registering the worker node.

    Note:

    Based on your Operating System's GUI settings and SSH client being used; Worker Node Registration GUI may not be available; in such cases to register the worker node, execute RegisterWorkerNode binary located in the Data Insight installation bin directory.

11. To exit setup, click Finish.
12. Optionally, to use an alternate location for the log files, edit the following files that are in the /opt/DataInsight/conf directory, to replace /opt/DataInsight/log with the new log location:

    cli_logging.properties
    dscli_logging.properties
    commd_logging.properties
    watchdog_logging.properties
    webserver_logging.properties

    Export the new log directory using the following command:

    export MATRIX_LOG_DIR=/DataInsight/log

    Add the export entry to .bash_profile file of the user to reflect the change when you restart the system. Execute the following command to update the profile path:

    source .bash_profile

13. When installing as a non-root user, after you have registered this node with the Management Server, add following entries to /etc/rc.local to automatically start the services after you restart the system:

    su  -  <name of non-root user>
    # export MATRIX_LOG_DIR=/DataInsight/log (Optional)
    /opt/DataInsight/bin/DataInsightConfig start
    /opt/DataInsight/bin/DataInsightComm start
    /opt/DataInsight/bin/DataInsightWatchdog start
    exit

    Run below command by root to provide appropriate permissions to non-root user:

    setfacl -R -m u:non-root:rwx /etc/systemd/system

    Where, non-root is username of non-root account. Replace non-root with your user.

    Modify /etc/sudoers using visudo editor to add below entries for you user

    non-root ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/systemctl *
    non-root ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/mount *
    non-root ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/umount *
    non-root ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/chown *
    non-root ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/chmod *
    non-root ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /home/non-root/DataInsight/bin/scanner *

    Replace non-root with you user.

    Replace /home/non-root/DataInsight/bin/scanner with <your INSTALL_DIR>/scanner.
