where is the orchestrator located ?

[AlexandruUngureanu]

Hi,

I have tried to install the edge for instrustrial software on a intel network. I had to use the proxy for the installer to detect the presence of internet.

before (no proxy):

Checking Internet connection
Reconnecting
Check for Internet connection request timed out
Reconnecting
Please check the Internet connection and proxy settings

after (with proxy):

Checking Internet connection
Connected to the Internet

This was not the single problem. The docker and docker-compose tools cannot be downloaded because of a blocked port. see logs:

Modules to be installed by package are ['Docker_Community_Edition_CE', 'Docker_Compose', 'eii_installer']

As a side note, for this you could use the http or https to download the binaries from github, no need for a separate port 443.

Finally the installer result was like:

Installation of package complete
+--------------------------+-----------------------------+---------+
| Id                       | Module                      | Status  |

| 5face41098a1ef002af292fd | eii installer               | FAILED  |
+--------------------------+-----------------------------+---------+

Now, the question: Where should the orchestrator component be located ? I've searched for "orchestrator" in the installer directory and did not found it. Do you think this could be because the installer was not complete ? I need to investigate the orchestration solution for this components.

I've also tried to install docker-compose separately before but after installer execution, the binary it's not there anymore (/usr/local/bin/docker-compose) and maybe the installer deleted it.

Full logs attached.

The installer for the recommended configuration no longer comes with orchestrator by default. You can verify this by looking for "orchestrator" in the edgesoftware_configuration.xml file.

To include it, you need to create a customized installation package by clicking the "Customize & Download" button at https://software.intel.com/iot/edgesoftwarehub/download/home/industrialinsights/. At step 2, you can add Orchestrator to your package. 

About the installation of docker and docker-compose, curl is used to download the official Docker GPG key and the docker-compose binaries via https, and thus a proxy setting is required if you are behind a proxy server.

What worked for me so far was commenting the last line from:
/etc/apt/sources.list
# deb-src [arch=amd64] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu bionic stable

Deleted the bolded S from this file:
/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/proxy.conf
Acquire::https::proxy "https://proxy-chain.intel.com:912";

But first verify if both files below look like this:
cat /etc/systemd/system/docker.service.d/http-proxy.conf
[Service]
Environment="HTTP_PROXY=http://proxy-chain.intel.com:911"
Environment="HTTPS_PROXY=http://proxy-chain.intel.com:912"
Environment="NO_PROXY=intel.com,.intel.com,localhost,127.0.0.1"
--
cat ~/.docker/config.json
{
"proxies":
{
"default":
{
"httpProxy": "http://proxy-chain.intel.com:911",
"httpsProxy": "http://proxy-chain.intel.com:912"
}
}
}

Hi @mbulgaru 

for /etc/systemd/system/docker.service.d/http-proxy.conf file I would suggest the NO_proxy as below 

Environment="NO_PROXY=*.intel.com,localhost,127.0.0.1"

after done you will need to restart the docker to flush the changes. 

$ sudo systemctl daemon-reload
$ sudo systemctl restart docker 

You can verify the configuration has been loaded based on the changes you made using the below command

$ sudo systemctl show --property=Environment docker
