Creating Security Group in AWS

-
We have already discussed how to Launch on EC2 Instance in Amazon Web Service. Now lets check out how to setup an security group in AWS. Security Group specify  the Inbound and Outbound rule for your instance. It act like a firewall, which tell us type of port open to inside and outside of the instance.

                                                           Login to your EC2 Dashboard and select security group option  from  Network and Security section.Click on the Create Security Group menu.




Now in next popup section, provide the security group name and a description. If you are using Instance inside a VPC, select the vpc name in VPC section. Now add the security group rule in Inbound and Outbound Section.

Datastax Error : Cannot start node if snitch's data center (dc1) differs from previous data center (dc2)

-

This error occurs when the node try to start and see it has snitch information which differ from previous data center. In my case, i was using DseSimpleSnitch which name the datacenter based on workload type. Previously i had enabled solr in dse default
configuration file ( /etc/default/dse ) and datasenter name was Solr. Now i tried to start the dse with graph enabled, which change the name to datacenter SearchGraph which is default workload type name.

CassandraDaemon.java:698 - Cannot start node if snitch's data center (Solr) differs from previous data center (SearchGraph). Please fix the snitch configuration, decommission and rebootstrap this node or use the flag -Dcassandra.ignore_dc=true

Solution :

1) In the last line of cassandra-env.sh set in the jvm opts as given below :
JVM_OPTS="$JVM_OPTS -Dcassandra.ignore_dc=true"
2) If it starts successfully, execute:

nodetool repair nodetool cleanup

Datastax Error : Cassandra - Saved cluster name Test Cluster != configured name

-
Image
While changing existing cluster name in datastax, i got name mismatch exception in log file. Process i followed was changed the cluster name in cassandra.yaml configuration file.

$ nano /etc/dse/cassandra/cassandra.yaml

cluster_name: 'Test Cluster1'








Solution : 


Change the cluster name  to "New Cluster Name" :

$ cqlsh `hostname -I`

cqlsh> UPDATE system.local SET cluster_name = 'New Cluster Name' where key='local';
cqlsh> exit;

$ nodetool flush system

Stop the cluster :

$ sudo service dse stop;sudo service datastax-agent stop

Edit the file :

$ sudo vi /etc/dse/cassandra/cassandra.yaml
cluster_name: 'New Cluster Name'

Start the cluster :

$ sudo service dse start;sudo service datastax-agent start

Check Installation log :

 $ cat /var/log/cassandra/output.log

Configure Nagios plugin " check_logfiles " for scanning log file

-
I was checking for a nagios plugin which could filter the specified log file which i had mentioned and notify me whenever a warning or error appeared in log. Finally i get in hand check_logfilecreated by Gerhard Lausser. Check_logfiles is used to scan the lines of a file for regular expressions.

Install the plugin on client system : 

$ wget https://labs.consol.de/assets/downloads/nagios/check_logfiles-3.8.0.2.tar.gz

$ tar xvzf check_logfiles-3.8.0.2.tar.gz

$ cd check_logfiles-3.8.0.2/

$ ./configure

$ make

$ make install

check_logfiles executable file will get installed on location "/usr/local/nagios/libexec"


Configure Check Pattern :

$ nano  /etc/nagios-plugins/config/check_log.cfg

@searches = (
  {
    tag => 'Error',
    logfile => '/var/logs/error.log',
    criticalpatterns => 'Error',
  }
);

Here i am filtering pattern "Error" from log file which i had mentioned in logfile parameter section


Configure nrpe.cfg in client system :

$ nano /etc/nagio…
