Move the MashZone NextGen repository to Oracle
1. If you are using your LDAP Directory as the MashZone NextGen User Repository, make sure that at least one user in your LDAP Directory has administrator privileges for MashZone NextGen before you move the MashZone NextGen Repository. See Grant User Access to
MashZone NextGen with
Built-in Groups for instructions. When the MashZone NextGen User Repository is your LDAP Directory, the default administrator account (Administrator user) is disabled.
2. If you are hosting the MashZone NextGen Repository in a new database, create the database following Oracle documentation. If you want
MashZone NextGen to support international characters in meta-data for artifacts, set the character encoding to AL32UTF8 when you create the database. See documentation for your database for specific instructions.
It is a best practice to require passwords for every database account that can access the
MashZone NextGen Repository.
3. Start the database that will become host to the MashZone NextGen Repository, if it is not already up.
4. Using the SQL tool for the database that will be host, add MashZone NextGen Repository tables with the scripts shown below from the corresponding folder in MashZoneNG-install/prestorepository/oracledb:
createDB.txt createDBTables.txt for MetaData and the default User Repository
createSnapsTables.sql for Snapshots
createSchedulerTables.sql for Scheduler
Note: This folder contains other scripts to drop the corresponding MashZone NextGen Repository tables.
5. Replace the JAR for the MashZone NextGen Repository:
a. Remove the web-apps-home/mashzone/WEB-INF/lib/jackbe-presto-rds-postgresql-derby.jar JAR file for each MashZone NextGen Server that uses this MashZone NextGen Repository. You can delete this JAR or simply move it to a folder that is not in the classpath for the application server that hosts MashZone NextGen.
b. Copy this JAR file:
MashZoneNG-install/prestorepository/jackbe-presto-rds-oracle-mysql-mssql.jar
To the web-apps-home/mashzone/WEB-INF/lib folder.
6. Copy the JAR file for the JDBC driver for your database to the following folder for each MashZone NextGen Server that uses this MashZone NextGen Repository:
MashZoneNG-install/apache-tomcat/lib
7. Update snapshot scheduler configuration for the MashZone NextGen Server:
a. In the text editor of your choice, open the applicationContext-scheduler.xml file in the webapps-home/mashzone/WEB-INF/classes/ folder for the MashZone NextGen Server.
b. Find the bean for org.springframework.scheduling.quartz.SchedulerFactoryBean in default profile.
c. Update the org.quartz.jobStore.driverDelegateClass property to the org.quartz.impl.jdbcjobstore.oracle.OracleDelegate delegate.
The configuration would now look like:
...
<bean id="scheduler">
<property name="applicationContextSchedulerContextKey">
<value>applicationContext</value>
</property>
<property name="quartzProperties">
<props>
<prop key="org.quartz.scheduler.instanceId">AUTO</prop>
<prop key="org.quartz.jobStore.class"> org.quartz.impl.jdbcjobstore.
JobStoreTX</prop>
<prop key="org.quartz.jobStore.tablePrefix">QRTZ_</prop>
<prop key="org.quartz.jobStore.driverDelegateClass"> org.quartz.impl.
jdbcjobstore.oracle.OracleDelegate</prop>
<prop key="org.quartz.jobStore.dataSource">schedulerDS</prop>
...
</props>
</property>
</bean>
...
d. Save this change.
e. If this is a clustered environment, copy the updated applicationContext-scheduler.xml configuration file to each MashZone NextGen Server in the cluster.
8. Open the MashZoneNG-install/apache-tomcat/conf/context.xml configuration file in the text editor of your choice.
9. For the MashZone NextGen Repository, edit the <Resource> element with an ID of MashzoneNextGenRepository and:
a. Update the JDBC driver, URL and credential properties:
<Resource
name="MashzoneNextGenRepository" auth="Container" type="javax.sql.DataSource"
maxTotal="200" maxIdle="30" maxWaitMillis="10000"
username="app" password="app" driverClassName="oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver"
url="jdbc:oracle:drivertype:@host-name:port:dbname"
/>
The JTA managed property must be false.
b. If needed, update optional properties. See Tomcat Datasource Properties for a complete list of optional properties and information on defaults. Some common properties you may need to set include:
validationQuery = select 1 from dual 10. Save your changes to this file.
If the
MashZone NextGen Server does not start up successfully, see
Troubleshooting Connections to the
MashZone NextGen
Repository for suggestions.
11. Restart the MashZone NextGen Server to apply these changes.
If the
MashZone NextGen Server wedoes not start up successfully, see
Troubleshooting Connections to the
MashZone NextGen
Repository for suggestions.
12. Update connection information for the Snapshots Repository:
a. Open MashZone NextGen Hub and login.
b. Add a JDBC driver for the new database that should host the Snapshots Repository. See Add or manage JDBC drivers for instructions on adding JDBC drivers. c. Expand the JDBC Configuration menu, if needed, and select Datasources.
d. Select SnapshotDatasource and click Edit. e. Update configuration to point to the new database. See Add a data source for information on specific configuration properties. f. Click Save.
13. Restart the MashZone NextGen Server to apply these changes.
14. Load macros required for the Snapshot feature in MashZone NextGen:
a. Open a command or terminal window and move to the MashZoneNG-install/presto-cli/bin folder.
b. Enter the appropriate command, shown below, for your operating system:
For Windows | For Linux, OS/X or UNIX |
publish-global-macros.bat -u Administrator -p manage -url http://app-server:port/mashzone/edge/api | ./publish-global-macros -u Administrator -p manage -url http://app-server:port/mashzone/edge/api |
