These instructions outline how to install DalmatinerDB on a single node. Scaling out will be covered in a future document. It also covers configuring Telegraf to send in monitoring data and Grafana to build dashboards.
Here's how everything connects together:
Ubuntu 16.04 x86_64 with 16GB memory
apt-get update && apt-get install zfs
cd / && touch vdev1 && truncate -s 900G vdev1 # change 900G to appropriate allocation
zpool create data /vdev1
zfs create data/ddb -o compression=lz4 -o atime=off -o logbias=throughput
chown dalmatiner. /data/ddb
wget https://github.com/davecromberge/dalmatinerdb/releases/download/v0.2.0/dalmatinerdb_0.2.0_amd64.deb
dpkg -i dalmatinerdb_0.2.0_amd64.deb
vi /etc/ddb/ddb.conf # change platform_data_dir = /data/ddb
service ddb start # need to add /etc/systemd/system/ddb.service to package
wget https://github.com/davecromberge/dalmatiner-frontend/releases/download/0.2.0/dalmatiner-frontend_0.2.0_amd64.deb
dpkg -i dalmatiner-frontend_0.2.0_amd64.deb
service dfe start
curl -s http://apt.postgresql.org/pub/repos/apt/ACCC4CF8.asc | apt-key add -
echo 'deb http://apt.postgresql.org/pub/repos/apt precise-pgdg main 9.5' > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/postgresql.list
apt-get update && apt-get install postgresql-9.5
service postgresql start
su - postgres -c "psql -f /var/lib/dfe/schema.sql"
service dfe restart
curl https://packagecloud.io/gpg.key | sudo apt-key add -
echo 'deb https://packagecloud.io/grafana/stable/debian/ wheezy main' > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/grafana.list
apt-get update && apt-get install grafana
service grafana-server start
git clone https://github.com/dalmatinerdb/dalmatinerdb-datasource.git /var/lib/grafana/plugins/dalmatinerdb
service grafana-server restart
wget https://github.com/davecromberge/ddb_proxy/releases/download/0.1.0/ddb-proxy_0.1.0_amd64.deb
dpkg -i ddb-proxy_0.1.0_amd64.deb
service ddb_proxy start
wget https://dl.influxdata.com/telegraf/releases/telegraf_0.13.2_amd64.deb
dpkg -i telegraf_0.13.2_amd64.deb
vi /etc/telegraf/telegraf.conf # comment influxdb output and uncomment opentsdb output on localhost port 4242 (the defaults)
service telegraf restart
