Minimum High Availability Deployment for WSO2 IS Analytics

This section explains how to configure WSO2 Identity Server Analytics in a distributed setup. You can configure alerts to monitor these APIs and detect unusual activity, manage locations via geo location statistics and to carry out detailed analysis of logs relating to the APIs. WSO2 IS Analytics is powered by WSO2 DAS. The following diagram indicates the minimum deployment pattern used for high availability.

Warning

Warning: Some of the requests may be lost during the time the passive node switches to the active mode.

Prerequisites

Before you configure a minimum high availability IS Analytics cluster, the following needs to be carried out.

  1. Download the WSO2 IS Analytics distribution. Click DOWNLOAD ANALYTICS in the WSO2 Identity and Access Management page.
  2. Take the following steps to install WSO2 IS Analytics. Sicne this procedure is identical to installing WSO2 Data Analytics Server (DAS), these steps take you to the DAS documentation for details.
    1. Ensure that you have met the Installation Prerequisites.
    2. Go to the installation instructions relevant to your operating system:
  3. Follow the steps below to set up MySQL.
    1. Download and install MySQL Server.

    2. Download the MySQL JDBC driver.

    3. Unzip the downloaded MySQL driver zipped archive, and copy the MySQL JDBC driver JAR (mysql-connector-java-x.x.xx-bin.jar) into the <IS Analytics_HOME>/repository/components/lib directory of all the nodes in the cluster.

    4. Enter the following command in a terminal/command window, where username is the username you want to use to access the databases.
      mysql -u username -p 
    5. When prompted, specify the password that will be used to access the databases with the username you specified.
    6. Create two databases named userdb and regdb.

      Info
      titleAbout using MySQL in different operating systems

      For users of Microsoft Windows, when creating the database in MySQL, it is important to specify the character set as latin1. Failure to do this may result in an error (error code: 1709) when starting your cluster. This error occurs in certain versions of MySQL (5.6.x) and is related to the UTF-8 encoding. MySQL originally used the latin1 character set by default, which stored characters in a 2-byte sequence. However, in recent versions, MySQL defaults to UTF-8 to be friendlier to international users. Hence, you must use latin1 as the character set as indicated below in the database creation commands to avoid this problem. Note that this may result in issues with non-latin characters (like Hebrew, Japanese, etc.). The following is how your database creation command should look.

      mysql> create database <DATABASE_NAME> character set latin1;

      For users of other operating systems, the standard database creation commands will suffice. For these operating systems, the following is how your database creation command should look.

      mysql> create database <DATABASE_NAME>;
    7. Execute the following script for the two databases you created in the previous step.
      mysql> source <IS Analytics_HOME>/dbscripts/mysql.sql; 

      Note

      From WSO2 Carbon Kernel 4.4.6 onwards there are two MySQL DB scripts available in the product distribution. Click here to identify as to which version of the MySQL script to use.

      mysql> create database userdb;
      mysql> use userdb;
      mysql> source <IS Analytics_HOME>/dbscripts/mysql.sql;
      mysql> grant all on userdb.* TO username@localhost identified by "password";
       
       
      mysql> create database regdb;
      mysql> use regdb;
      mysql> source <IS Analytics_HOME>/dbscripts/mysql.sql;
      mysql> grant all on regdb.* TO username@localhost identified by "password";
    8. Configure the datasource in the <IS Analytics_HOME>/repository/conf/analytics/analytics-conf.xml file as shown in the code extract below. As it is possible to maintain the data in one database, you can point all three datasources to a single database.

      Alternatively,
       if you want to separate the data logically, create the following two databases in MySQL and point to the respective database as shown in the extract below. 

      • WSO2_ANALYTICS_EVENT_STORE_DB
      • WSO2_ANALYTICS_PROCESSED_DATA_STORE_DB

Required configurations

When configuring the minimum high availability cluster following setups should be done for both nodes.

  1. Do the following database-related configurations.
    1. Follow the steps below to configure the <IS Analytics_HOME>/repository/conf/datasources/master-datasources.xml file as required. 

      Note

      Note that you can point all these datasources to a single database as it is not technically neccessary to separate the data into different databases. However, if required, you can have separate databases as well.

      The steps given below demonstrate the flow assuming you have created separate databases for each. If you are using a single database instead, simply point the datasources indicated below to a single database.

      1. Enable all the nodes to access the users database by configuring a datasource to be used by user manager as shown below. 

        Code Block
        languagexml
        <datasource>
        	<name>WSO2UM_DB</name>
        	<description>The datasource used by user manager</description>
        	<jndiConfig>
          	<name>jdbc/WSO2UM_DB</name>
        	</jndiConfig>
        	<definition type="RDBMS">
          	<configuration>
            	<url>jdbc:mysql://[MySQL DB url]:[port]/userdb</url>
            	<username>[user]</username>
            	<password>[password]</password>
            	<driverClassName>com.mysql.jdbc.Driver</driverClassName>
            	<maxActive>50</maxActive>
            	<maxWait>60000</maxWait>
            	<testOnBorrow>true</testOnBorrow>
            	<validationQuery>SELECT 1</validationQuery>
            	<validationInterval>30000</validationInterval>
          	</configuration>
        	</definition>
        </datasource>
      2. Enable the nodes to access the registry database by configuring the WSO2REG_DB data source as follows.

        Code Block
        languagexml
        <datasource>
        	<name>WSO2REG_DB</name>
        	<description>The datasource used by the registry</description>
        	<jndiConfig>
          	<name>jdbc/WSO2REG_DB</name>
        	</jndiConfig>
        	<definition type="RDBMS">
          	<configuration>
            	<url>jdbc:mysql://[MySQL DB url]:[port]/regdb</url>
            	<username>[user]</username>
            	<password>[password]</password>
            	<driverClassName>com.mysql.jdbc.Driver</driverClassName>
            	<maxActive>50</maxActive>
            	<maxWait>60000</maxWait>
            	<testOnBorrow>true</testOnBorrow>
            	<validationQuery>SELECT 1</validationQuery>
            	<validationInterval>30000</validationInterval>
          	</configuration>
        	</definition>
        </datasource>

        For detailed information about registry sharing strategies, see the library article Sharing Registry Space across Multiple Product Instances.

    2. Point to your database WSO2_ANALYTICS_EVENT_STORE_DB and WSO2_ANALYTICS_PROCESSED_DATA_STORE_DB in the <IS Analytics_HOME>/repository/conf/datasources/analytics-datasources.xml file as shown below.

              </datasource>
          </datasources>
      </datasources-configuration>

      For more information, see Datasources in DAS documentation.

    3. To share the user store among the nodes, open the <IS Analytics_HOME>/repository/conf/user-mgt.xmlfile and modify the dataSource property of the <configuration> element as follows.

      Code Block
      languagexml
      <configuration> 
      ...
          <Property name="dataSource">jdbc/WSO2UM_DB</Property>
      </configuration>
      Info

      The datasource name specified in this configuration should be the same as the datasource used by user manager that you configured in sub step a, i.

    4. In the <IS Analytics_HOME>/repository/conf/registry.xml file, add or modify the dataSource attribute of the <dbConfig name="govregistry"> element as follows.

      Code Block
      languagexml
      <dbConfig name="govregistry">
      	<dataSource>jdbc/WSO2REG_DB</dataSource>
      </dbConfig>
      <remoteInstance url="https://localhost:9443/registry"> 
      	<id>gov</id>
      	<cacheId>user@jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/regdb</cacheId>
      	<dbConfig>govregistry</dbConfig>
      	<readOnly>false</readOnly>
      	<enableCache>true</enableCache>
      	<registryRoot>/</registryRoot>
      </remoteInstance>
      <mount path="/_system/governance" overwrite="true">
      	<instanceId>gov</instanceId>
      	<targetPath>/_system/governance</targetPath>
      </mount>
      <mount path="/_system/config" overwrite="true">
      	<instanceId>gov</instanceId>
      	<targetPath>/_system/config</targetPath>
      </mount>
      Note

      Do not replace the following configuration when adding in the mounting configurations. The registry mounting configurations mentioned in the above steps should be added in addition to the following.

      Code Block
      languagexml
      <dbConfig name="wso2registry">
          <dataSource>jdbc/WSO2CarbonDB</dataSource>
      </dbConfig>
  2. Update the <IS Analytics_HOME>/repository/conf/axis2/axis2.xml file as follows to enable Hazlecast clustering for both nodes. 
    1. Set clustering class="org.wso2.carbon.core.clustering.hazelcast.HazelcastClusteringAgent" to true as shown below to enable Hazlecast clustering.

      Code Block
      languagexml
      <clustering class="org.wso2.carbon.core.clustering.hazelcast.HazelcastClusteringAgent" enable="true">
    2. Enable wka mode on both nodes as shown below.  For more information on wka mode, read About membership schemes.

      Code Block
      languagexml
      <parameter name="membershipScheme">wka</parameter>
    3. Add both the nodes as well known members in the cluster under the members tag in each node as shown in the example below.

      Code Block
      languagexml
      <members>
          <member>
              <hostName>[node1 IP]</hostName>
              <port>[node1 port]</port>
          </member>
          <member>
              <hostName>[node2 IP]</hostName>
              <port>[node2 port]</port>
          </member>
      </members>
    4. For each node, enter the respective server IP address as the value for the localMemberHost property as shown below.

      Code Block
      languagexml
      <parameter name="localMemberHost">[Server_IP_Address]</parameter>

  3. Configure the  <IS Analytics_HOME>/repository/conf/event-processor.xml file as follows to cluster IS Analytics in the Receiver.

    1. Enable the HA mode by setting the following property.

      Code Block
      languagexml
      <mode name="HA" enable="true">
    2. Disable the Distributed mode by setting the following property.

      Code Block
      languagexml
      <mode name="Distributed" enable="false">
    3. For each node, enter the respective server IP address under the HA mode Config section as shown in the example below.

      Info

      When you enable the HA mode for WSO2 IS Analytics, the following are enabled by default:

      • State persistence: If there is no real time use case that requires any state information after starting the cluster, you should disable event persistence by setting the persistence attribute to false in the <IS Analytics_HOME>/repository/conf/event-processor.xml file as shown below.

        Code Block
        languagexml
        <persistence enable="false">
            <persistenceIntervalInMinutes>15</persistenceIntervalInMinutes>
            <persisterSchedulerPoolSize>10</persisterSchedulerPoolSize>
            <persister class="org.wso2.carbon.event.processor.core.internal.persistence.FileSystemPersistenceStore">
                <property key="persistenceLocation">cep_persistence</property>
            </persister>
        </persistence>
        Tip

        When state persistence is enabled for WSO2 IS Analytics, the internal state of IS Analytics is persisted in files. These files are not automatically deleted. Therefore, if you want to save space in your IS Analytics pack, you need to delete them manually.

        These files are created in the <IS Analytics_HOME>/cep_persistence/<tenant-id> directory. This directory has a separate sub-directory for each execution plan. Each execution plan can have multiple files. The format of each file name is <TIMESTAMP>_<EXECUTION_PLAN_NAME> (e.g, 1493101044948_MyExecutionPlan). If you want to clear files for a specific execution plan, you need to leave the two files with the latest timestamps and delete the rest.

      • Event synchronization: However, if you set the event.duplicated.in.cluster=true property for an event receiver configured in a node, IS Analytics does not perform event synchronization for that receiver.

    Info

    The following node types are configured for the HA deployment mode in the <IS Analytics_HOME>/repository/conf/event-processor.xml file.

    • eventSync: Both the active and the passive nodes in this setup are event synchronizing nodes as explained in the introduction. Therefore, each node should have the host and the port on which it is operating specified under the <eventSync> element.

      Info

      Note that the eventSync port is not automatically updated to the port in which each node operates via port offset.

    • management: In this setup, both the nodes carry out the same tasks, and therefore, both nodes are considered manager nodes. Therefore, each node should have the host and the port on which it is operating specified under the <management> element.

      Info

      Note that the management port is not automatically updated to the port in which each node operates via port offset.

    • presentation: You can optionally specify only one of the two nodes in this setup as the presenter node. The dashboards in which processed information is displayed are configured only in the presenter node. Each node should have the host and the port on which the assigned presenter node is operating specified under the <presentation> element. The host and the port as well as the other configurations under the <presentation> element are effective only when the presenter enable="false property is set under the <!-- HA Mode Config --> section.
  4. Update the <IS Analytics_HOME>/repository/conf/analytics/spark/spark-defaults.conf file as follows to use the Spark cluster embedded within IS Analytics.

    • Keep the carbon.spark.master configuration as local. This instructs Spark to create a Spark cluster using the Hazelcast cluster.
    • Enter 2 as the value for the carbon.spark.master.count configuration. This specifies that there should be two masters in controllers in the Spark cluster. One master controller serves as an active master controller and the other serves as a stand-by mastercontroller

    The following example shows the <IS Analytics_HOME>/repository/conf/analytics/spark/spark-defaults.conf file with changes mentioned above.

    Code Block
    carbon.spark.master local
    carbon.spark.master.count 2

    For more information, see Spark Configurations in DAS documentation.

    Warning

    Important: If the path to <IS Analytics_HOME> is different in the two nodes, please do the following. 

    Localtabgroup
    Localtab
    activetrue
    titleUNIX environment

    Create a symbolic link to <IS Analytics_HOME> in both nodes, where paths of those symbolic links are identical. This ensures that if we use the symbolic link to access IS Analytics, we can use a common path. To do this, set the following property in the
    <IS Analytics_HOME>/repository/conf/analytics/spark/spark-defaults.conf file.

    carbon.das.symbolic.link /home/ubuntu/das/das_symlink/

    Localtab
    titleWindows environment

    In the Windows environment there is a strict requirement to have both IS Analytics distributions in a common path.

  5. In order to share the C-Apps deployed among the nodes, configure the SVN-based deployment synchronizer. For detailed instructions, see Configuring SVN-Based Deployment Synchronizer.

    Tip

    IS Analytics Minimum High availability Deployment set up does not use a manager and a worker. For the purpose of configuring the deployment synchronizer, you can add the configurations relevant to the manager for the node of your choice, and add the configurations relating to the worker for the other node.

    Info

    If you do not configure the deployment synchronizer, you are required to deploy any C-App you use in the IS Analytics Minimum High Availability Deployment set up to both the nodes.

  6. If the physical IS Analytics server has multiple network interfaces with different IPs, and if you want Spark to use a specific Interface IP, open either the <IS Analytics_HOME>/bin/load-spark-env-vars.sh file (for Linux) or <IS Analytics_HOME>/bin/load-spark-env-vars.bat file (for Windows), and add the following parameter to configure the Spark IP address. 

    Code Block
    export  SPARK_LOCAL_IP=<IP_Address>

Starting the cluster

Once you complete the configurations mentioned above, start the two IS Analytics nodes. If the cluster is successfully configured, the following CLI logs are generated.

...

Info

Following are some exceptions you may view in the start up log when you start the cluster.

  • When you start the passive node of the HA cluster, the following errors are displayed.

    All the nodes in the Spark cluster should be started in order to stop this exception from occurring.

Testing the HA deployment

The HA deployment you configured can be tested as follows.

  1. Access the Spark UIs of the active master controller and the stand-by master controller using < node ip>:8081 in each node.
    • Information relating to the active master controller is displayed as shown in the example below.
    • Information relating to the stand-by master is controller is displayed as shown in the example below.
  2. Click the links under Running Applications in the Spark UI of the active master to controller to check the Spark application UIs of those applications. A working application is displayed as shown in the following example.
  3. Click the Environment tab of a Spark application UI to check whether all the configuration parameters are correctly set. You can also check whether the class path variables in this tab can be accessed manually.
  4. Check the Spark UIs of workers to check whether they have running executors. If a worker UI does not have running executors or if it is continuously creating executors, it indicates an issue in the Spark cluster configuration. The following example shows a worker UI with a running executor.
  5. Check the symbolic parameter, and check if you could manually access it via a cd <directory> command in the CLI.
  6. Log into the IS Analytics Management Console and navigate to Main => Manage => Batch Analytics => Console to open the Interactive Analytics Console. Run a query in this console.
