titleServer Host Requirements
  • Linux kernel version 3.10 or higher

  • CS Docker Engine version 1.10 or higher installed on your server 

  • Connectivity to SMTP Mail Server (i.e. remotely accessible or locally installed)

  • The first phase of installation process (building the Kiuwan image) requires Internet connectivity 

  • A minimum of 6 GB of free disk space :

    • 3 GB for the Docker image

    • 3 Gb for Permanent Volume


Installation must be executed by a 
unix user with privileges to execute docker server commands.

...

  • KOP user will the owner of the KOP processes that will run within the docker container 
  • the docker permanent persistent volume will be owned by KOP user

...

  • sudo groupadd ${KIUWAN_GROUP}
  • sudo useradd -g ${KIUWAN_GROUP} -s /bin/false -m -d /home/${KIUWAN_USER} ${KIUWAN_USER}


KOP permanent persistent volume is created by the installation process and must specified as DIR_PERSISTENT_VOLUME property

Be sure to dispose of a minimum of 6 GB of free disk space :

  • 3 GB Gb for Docker image

  • 3 Gb for KOP Permanent Volume


KOP permanent volume contains KOP database and its size will increase as more Kiuwan analyses are executed.
Threfore, it's recommended:
ç
  • Recommended size for KOP persistent volume is 50 Gb
  • Try to specify an independent disk/partition, so you can easily increase it later if needed

Info

After configuration, you will build the Kiuwan docker image.

 

IMPORTANT: Please be sure you have already installed KOP licenses, otherwise the docker image will not be built !!

 

To build the docker image:

     cd $KOP_INSTDIR/vX.Y
     ./create_and_init_kop.sh

 

This step requires Internet connectivity.

If your installation uses an proxy, you should have previolsy configured the proxy settings.

 

In case you need to execute the Kiuwan container in a host server without Internet connectivity:

  1. Build the image in a connected server host
  2. Save the image, transfer it to the target host server and then load it and execute it (as further described)

 

 

After image creation,   you will be able to list the images in your docker server and identify your kiuwan image by issuing the next command:
