Configuration_confluent
Starting/Stopping confluent
To start confluent:
service confluent start
To stop confluent:
service confluent stop
If you want confluent daemon to start automatically when the node boots, add confluent to chkconfig:
chkconfig --add confluent
Replacing conserver with confluent
A keyword has been added to the site table to allow control between 'conserver' and 'confluent' as the console service.
The default, if nothing is set, is to continue to use 'conserver.'
Set the consoleservice to confluent:
chdef -t site consoleservice='confluent'
Run 'makeconfluentcfg' to create the confluent configuration files
makeconfluentcfg
Use rcons to start a console session. You should see a timestamp after the node name
rcons <singlenode>
To verify you are using confluent for consoles, you should see a timestamp appear after the node name.
Example: If you started a session at 3:45pm using: rcons node1, a console session would open with the title:
console: node1 [15:45]

Confluent in the browser
Confluent-api and confluent-consoles are able to be accessed from the browser.
It's recommended that you create a non-root user to access the sessions.
Create the non-root user on the management node
# useradd -m vhu
Create a non-root user in confetty
# /opt/confluent/bin/confetty create users/vhu
Set the password for the non-root user
# /opt/confluent/bin/confetty set users/vhu password="mynewpassword"
password="********"
Confluent Rest Explorer
Configure the httpd configuration for confluent-api by creating a similar confluent.conf file under /etc/httpd/conf.d
The example uses server ip: 10.2.5.3 and port 4005
# cat /etc/httpd/conf.d/confluent.conf
LoadModule proxy_http_module modules/mod_proxy_http.so
<Location /confluent-api>
ProxyPass http://10.2.5.3:4005
</Location>
# service httpd restart
Now point your browser to: http://<server ip="">:<port> and log in with the non-root user and password created above. </port></server>
Confluent consoles
confluent-web is provided in a subdirectory under the confluent project
https://sourceforge.net/p/xcat/confluent/ci/master/tree/confluent_web/
Download the content of that directory to /var/www/html/confluent,
then point your browser to: http://<server ip="">/confluent/consoles.html</server>
