Installation

Scheduler production installation is based on Docker and described in details at scheduler-distro wiki.

Instructions below cover installation of the Synergy Scheduler in development environment.

Synergy Scheduler is written in Python and uses virtual environment for managing its interpreter and dependencies.

OS-level dependencies: sudo apt install python-setuptools python-dev build-essential checkinstall docker.io

Synergy Scheduler level dependencies:

1. Start MongoDB container: docker run -d --name syn-mongodb -p 27017:27017 mongo:4

2. Start RabbitMQ container:
   docker run -d --hostname syn-rabbitmq --name syn-rabbitmq -p 5672:5672 -p 15672:15672 rabbitmq:3-management

3. Clone scheduler project into a directory; cd into it

4. Configure MQ:
   RABBITMQ_HOST="127.0.0.1" ./scripts/rabbitmq_config.sh

5. Invoke installation: python launch.py install

6. Create log folder:

   sudo mkdir -p /var/log/synergy-scheduler  
   sudo chmod 777 /var/log/synergy-scheduler  
   

7. Verify installation, by running: python launch.py test

8. Initialize Scheduler DB: python launch.py db --reset

9. Mark current machine with BOX_ID (here as dev):
   sudo python launch.py super --boxid dev

10. Initialize Supervisor DB: python launch.py super --reset

11. Start the whole system: python launch.py start Supervisor

12. Check number of started processes: ps aux | grep Synergy

13. Monitor the logs in /var/log/synergy-scheduler for errors and navigate to: localhost:5000 for Scheduler MX page.

14. You can kill all spawn processes with:
    ps aux | grep Synergy | grep -v grep | awk '{print$2}' | xargs kill
    or by executing shell script:
    sh scripts/kill_all.sh
