4.2. Deploying to a Fabric


4.2.1. Create a Fabric

Overview

Figure 4.2 shows an overview of a sample fabric that you will create. The Fabric Ensemble consists of just one Fabric Server (making this fabric suitable only for experimental use) and two managed child containers.

A Sample Fabric with Child Containers

Fabric server

A Fabric Server (or servers) forms the backbone of a fabric. It hosts a registry service, which maintains a replicable database of information about the state of the fabric. Initially, when you create the fabric, there is just a single Fabric Server.

Child containers

Creating one or more child containers is the simplest way to extend a fabric. As shown in Figure 4.2, “A Sample Fabric with Child Containers”, the first container in the fabric is a root container, and both child containers are descended from it.
Each child container is an independent Red Hat JBoss Fuse container instance, which runs in its own JVM instance. The data files for the child containers are stored under the InstallDir/instances directory.

Steps to create the fabric

To create the simple fabric shown in Figure 4.2, “A Sample Fabric with Child Containers”, follow these steps:
  1. (Optional) Customise the name of the root container by editing the InstallDir/etc/system.properties file and specifying a different name for this property:
    karaf.name=root
    Note
    For the first container in your fabric, this step is optional. But at some later stage, if you want to join a root container to the fabric, you must customise the new container's name to prevent it from clashing with any existing root containers in the fabric.
  2. To create the first fabric container, which acts as the seed for the new fabric, enter this console command:
    JBossFuse:karaf@root> fabric:create --new-user AdminUser
      --new-user-password AdminPass
      --new-user-role Administrator
      --resolver manualip
      --manual-ip 127.0.0.1
      --zookeeper-password ZooPass
      --wait-for-provisioning
    The current container, named root by default, becomes a Fabric Server with a registry service installed. Initially, this is the only container in the fabric. The --new-user, --new-user-password, and --new-user-role options specify the credentials for a new administrator user. The Zookeeper password is used to protect sensitive data in the Fabric registry service (all of the nodes under /fabric).
    Note
    Most of the time, you are not prompted to enter the Zookeeper password when accessing the registry service, because it is cached in the current session. When you join a container to a fabric, however, you must provide the fabric's Zookeeper password.
    Note
    It is recommended that you assign a static IP address to the machine that hosts a Fabric server and that you specify this port explicitly using the --resolver and --manual-ip options when you create the fabric. For simple tests and demonstrations, you can specify the loopback address, 127.0.0.1 (as here). For more details, see chapter "Creating a New Fabric" in "Fabric Guide".
  3. Create two child containers. Assuming that your root container is named root, enter this console command:
    JBossFuse:karaf@root> fabric:container-create-child root child 2
    Creating new instance on SSH port 8102 and RMI ports 1100/44445 at: /home/fbolton/Programs/JBossFuse/jboss-fuse-6.2.0.redhat-123/instances/child2
    Creating new instance on SSH port 8103 and RMI ports 1101/44446 at: /home/fbolton/Programs/JBossFuse/jboss-fuse-6.2.0.redhat-123/instances/child
    The following containers have been created successfully:
    	Container: child2.
    	Container: child.
    If you are prompted to enter a JMX username and password, enter one of the username/password combinations that you defined in step 2.
  4. Invoke the fabric:container-list command to see a list of all containers in your new fabric. You should see a listing something like this:
    JBossFuse:karaf@root> fabric:container-list
    [id]      [version]  [type]  [connected]  [profiles]              [provision status]
    root*     1.0        karaf   yes          fabric                  success           
                                              fabric-ensemble-0000-1                    
                                              jboss-fuse-full                           
      child   1.0        karaf   yes          default                 success           
      child2  1.0        karaf   yes          default                 success

Shutting down the containers

Because the child containers run in their own JVMs, they do not automatically stop when you shut down the root container. To shut down a container and its children, first stop its children using the fabric:container-stop command. For example, to shut down the current fabric completely, enter these console commands:
JBossFuse:karaf@root> fabric:container-stop child
JBossFuse:karaf@root> fabric:container-stop child2
JBossFuse:karaf@root> shutdown
After you restart the root container, you must explicitly restart the children using the fabric:container-start console command.

4.2.2. Create Fabric Profiles

Overview

A profile is the basic unit of deployment in a fabric. You can deploy one or more profiles to a container, and the content of those deployed profiles determines what is installed in the container.

Contents of a profile

A profile encapsulates the following kinds of information:
  • The URL locations of features repositories
  • A list of features to install
  • A list of bundles to install (or, more generally, any suitable JAR package—including OSGi bundles, Fuse Application Bundles, and WAR files)
  • A collection of configuration settings for the OSGi Config Admin service
  • Java system properties that affect the Apache Karaf container (analogous to editing etc/config.properties)
  • Java system properties that affect installed bundles (analogous to editing etc/system.properties)

Base profile

Profiles support inheritance. This can be useful in cases where you want to deploy a cluster of similar servers—for example, where the servers differ only in the choice of TCP port number. For this, you would typically define a base profile, which includes all of the deployment data that the servers have in common. Each individual server profile would inherit from the common base profile, but add configuration settings specific to its server instance.

Create a base profile

To create the gs-cxf-base profile, follow these steps:
  1. Create the gs-cxf-base profile by entering this console command:
    JBossFuse:karaf@root> fabric:profile-create --parent feature-cxf gs-cxf-base
  2. Add the get-started features repository (see Define a Feature for the Application) to the gs-cxf-base profile by entering this console command:
    JBossFuse:karaf@root> profile-edit -r mvn:org.fusesource.example/get-started/1.0-SNAPSHOT/xml/features gs-cxf-base
  3. Add the cxf-http-jetty feature (which provides support for the HTTP Jetty endpoint) to the gs-cxf-base profile. Enter the following console command:
    JBossFuse:karaf@root> profile-edit --feature cxf-http-jetty gs-cxf-base
  4. Add the get-started-cxf feature (which provides the Web service example server) to the gs-cxf-base profile. Enter the following console command:
    JBossFuse:karaf@root> profile-edit --feature get-started-cxf gs-cxf-base
  5. Add the cxf-commands feature (which makes the CXF console commands available) to the gs-cxf-base profile. Enter the following console command:
    JBossFuse:karaf@root> profile-edit --feature cxf-commands gs-cxf-base

Create the derived profiles

You create two derived profiles, gs-cxf-01 and gs-cxf-02, which configure different TCP ports for the Web service. To do so, follow these steps:
  1. Create the gs-cxf-01 profile—which derives from gs-cxf-base—by entering this console command:
    JBossFuse:karaf@root> profile-create --parent gs-cxf-base gs-cxf-01
  2. Create the gs-cxf-02 profile—which derives from gs-cxf-base—by entering this console command:
    JBossFuse:karaf@root> profile-create --parent gs-cxf-base gs-cxf-02
  3. In the gs-cxf-01 profile, set the portNumber configuration property to 8185, by entering this console command:
    JBossFuse:karaf@root> profile-edit -p org.fusesource.example.get.started/portNumber=8185 gs-cxf-01
  4. In the gs-cxf-02 profile, set the portNumber configuration property to 8186, by entering this console command:
    JBossFuse:karaf@root> profile-edit -p org.fusesource.example.get.started/portNumber=8186 gs-cxf-02

4.2.3. Deploy the Profiles

Deploy profiles to the child containers

Having created the child containers, as described in Section 4.2.1, “Create a Fabric”, and the profiles, as described in Section 4.2.2, “Create Fabric Profiles”, you can now deploy the profiles. To do so, follow these steps:
  1. Deploy the gs-cxf-01 profile into the child container by entering this console command:
    JBossFuse:karaf@root> fabric:container-change-profile child gs-cxf-01
  2. Deploy the gs-cxf-02 profile into the child2 container by entering this console command:
    JBossFuse:karaf@root> fabric:container-change-profile child2 gs-cxf-02

Check that the Web service is running

To check that the Web service has successfully launched on the child container, perform the following steps:
  1. If the child container is not already running, start it by entering the following command:
    JBossFuse:karaf@root> container-start child
  2. Wait until the child container has finished starting up. You can observe the provisioning status using the watch command, as follows:
    JBossFuse:karaf@root> watch container-list
  3. Connect to the child container, as follows:
    JBossFuse:karaf@root> container-connect child
  4. After connecting to the child container, list the active CXF endpoints, by entering the following command:
    JBossFuse:admin@child> cxf:list-endpoints 
    Name                      State      Address                                                      BusID                                   
    [HelloWorldImplPort     ] [Started ] [http://0.0.0.0:8185/cxf/HelloWorld                        ] [org.fusesource.example.cxf-basic-cxf481246446]
    [FabricResource         ] [Started ] [/fabric8                                                  ] [io.fabric8.fabric-rest-cxf1093764918  ]

4.2.4. Update a Profile

Atomic container upgrades

Normally, when you edit a profile that is already deployed in a container, the modification takes effect immediately. This is so because the Fabric Agent in the affected container (or containers) actively monitors the fabric registry in real time.
In practice, however, immediate propagation of profile modifications is often undesirable. In a production system, you typically want to roll out changes incrementally: for example, initially trying out the change on just one container to check for problems, before you make changes globally to all containers. Moreover, sometimes several edits must be made together to reconfigure an application in a consistent way.

Profile versioning

For quality assurance and consistency, it is typically best to modify profiles atomically, where several modifications are applied simultaneously. To support atomic updates, fabric implements profile versioning. Initially, the container points at version 1.0 of a profile. When you create a new profile version (for example, version 1.1), the changes are invisible to the container until you upgrade it. After you are finished editing the new profile, you can apply all of the modifications simultaneously by upgrading the container to use the new version 1.1 of the profile.

Upgrade to a new profile

For example, to modify the gs-cxf-01 profile, when it is deployed and running in a container, follow the recommended procedure:
  1. Create a new version, 1.1, to hold the pending changes by entering this console command:
    JBossFuse:karaf@root> fabric:version-create
    Created version: 1.1 as copy of: 1.0
    The new version is initialised with a copy of all of the profiles from version 1.0.
  2. Use the fabric:profile-edit command to change the portNumber of gs-cxf-01 to the value 8187 by entering this console command:
    JBossFuse:karaf@root> fabric:profile-edit -p org.fusesource.example.get.started/portNumber=8187 gs-cxf-01 1.1
    Remember to specify version 1.1 to the fabric:profile-edit command, so that the modifications are applied to version 1.1 of the gs-cxf-01 profile.
  3. Upgrade the child1 container to version 1.1 by entering this console command:
    JBossFuse:karaf@root> fabric:container-upgrade 1.1 child1

Roll back to an old profile

You can easily roll back to the old version of the gs-cxf-01 profile, using the fabric:container-rollback command like this:
JBossFuse:karaf@root> fabric:container-rollback 1.0 child1
