Installing and configuring Amazon EC2 command line

Now download the Amazon API CLI tools using following command and extract them at a proper place. For this example, we are using /opt directory.

# mkdir /opt/ec2
# wget http://s3.amazonaws.com/ec2-downloads/ec2-api-tools.zip
# unzip ec2-api-tools.zip -d /tmp
# mv /tmp/ec2-api-tools-* /opt/ec2/tools
Step 3- Download Private Key and Certificate Files

Now create and download X.509 certificate (private key file and certificate file) files from your account from Security Credentials page and copy to /opt/ec2/certs/ directory.

# ls -l /opt/ec2/certs/

-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 1281 May 15 12:57 my-ec2-cert.pem
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 1704 May 15 12:56 my-ec2-pk.pem
Step 4- Configure Environment

Install JAVA
The Amazon EC2 command line tools required Java 1.6 or later version. Make sure you have proper java installed on your system. You can install JRE or JDK , both are ok to use.
# java -version
java version "1.8.0_05"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_05-b13)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 25.5-b02, mixed mode)
If you don’t have Java installed your system, Use below links to install Java on your system first
Installing JAVA/JDK 8 on CentOS, RHEL and Fedora
Installing JAVA/JDK 8 on Ubuntu

Now edit ~/.bashrc file and add the following values at end of file

export EC2_BASE=/opt/ec2
export EC2_HOME=$EC2_BASE/tools
export EC2_PRIVATE_KEY=$EC2_BASE/certs/my-ec2-pk.pem
export EC2_CERT=$EC2_BASE/certs/my-ec2-cert.pem
export EC2_URL=https://ec2.xxxxxxx.amazonaws.com
export AWS_ACCOUNT_NUMBER=
export PATH=$PATH:$EC2_HOME/bin
export JAVA_HOME=/opt/jdk1.8.0_05
Now execute the following command to set environment variables

$ source ~/.bashrc

After completing all configuration, let’s run following command to quickly verify setup.

# ec2-describe-regions

REGION eu-west-1 ec2.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com
REGION sa-east-1 ec2.sa-east-1.amazonaws.com
REGION us-east-1 ec2.us-east-1.amazonaws.com
REGION ap-northeast-1 ec2.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com
REGION us-west-2 ec2.us-west-2.amazonaws.com
REGION us-west-1 ec2.us-west-1.amazonaws.com
REGION ap-southeast-1 ec2.ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com
REGION ap-southeast-2 ec2.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com

Install CentALT in CentOS/RHEL 6/5

Use one of below option to install CentALT repository as per your system architecture and operating system.

CentOS/RHEL 6, 32 Bit (i386):
# rpm -Uvh http://centos.alt.ru/repository/centos/6/i386/centalt-release-6-1.noarch.rpm
CentOS/RHEL 6, 64 Bit x86_64):
# rpm -Uvh http://centos.alt.ru/repository/centos/6/x86_64/centalt-release-6-1.noarch.rpm

MySql Server Cluster (Maria+galera)

Add MariaDB Repositories
========================
Create a mariadb repository /etc/yum.repos.d/mariadb.repo using following content in your system. Below repository will work on CentOS 6.x systems, For other system use repository generation tool and add to your system.

Disable Selinux in redhat sever's.


For CentOS 6 – 64bit

[mariadb]
name = MariaDB
baseurl = http://yum.mariadb.org/5.5/centos6-amd64
gpgkey=https://yum.mariadb.org/RPM-GPG-KEY-MariaDB
gpgcheck=1
For CentOS 6 – 32bit

[mariadb]
name = MariaDB
baseurl = http://yum.mariadb.org/5.5/centos6-x86
gpgkey=https://yum.mariadb.org/RPM-GPG-KEY-MariaDB
gpgcheck=1
Install MariaDB and Galera
==========================
Before installing MariaDB Galera cluster packages, remove any existing MySQL or MariaDB packages installed on system. After that use following command to install on all nodes.

# yum install MariaDB-Galera-server MariaDB-client galera

Initial MariaDB Configuration
=============================
After successfully installing packages in above steps do the some initial MariaDB configurations. Use following command and follow the instructions on all nodes of cluster. If will prompt to set root account password also.

# mysql_secure_installation
# service mysql start
After that create a user in MariaDB on all nodes, which can access database from your network in cluster.

# mysql -u root -p

MariaDB [(none)]> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'root'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'password' WITH GRANT OPTION;
MariaDB [(none)]> FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
MariaDB [(none)]> exit
and stop MariaDB service before starting cluster configuration

# service mysql stop
Setup Cluster Configuration on database1
========================================
Lets start setup MariaDB Galera cluster from database1 server. Edit MariaDB server configuration file and add following values under [mariadb] section.

[root@database1 ~]# vim /etc/my.cnf.d/server.cnf
query_cache_size=0
binlog_format=ROW
default_storage_engine=innodb
innodb_autoinc_lock_mode=2
wsrep_provider=/usr/lib/galera/libgalera_smm.so
wsrep_cluster_address=gcomm://10.0.0.4,10.0.0.5
wsrep_cluster_name='cluster1'
wsrep_node_address='10.0.0.2'
wsrep_node_name='database1'
wsrep_sst_method=rsync
wsrep_sst_auth=root:password
Start cluster using following command.

[root@database1 ~]# /etc/init.d/mysql bootstrap
Bootstrapping the clusterStarting MySQL.... SUCCESS!
If you get any problem during startup check MariaDB error log file /var/lib/mysql/<hostname>.err

Add database2 in MariaDB Cluster
================================
After successfully starting cluster on database1. Start configuration on database2. Edit MariaDB server configuration file and add following values under [mariadb] section. All the settings are similar to database1 except wsrep_node_address, wsrep_cluster_address and wsrep_node_name.

[root@database2 ~]# vim /etc/my.cnf.d/server.cnf

query_cache_size=0
binlog_format=ROW
default_storage_engine=innodb
innodb_autoinc_lock_mode=2
wsrep_provider=/usr/lib/galera/libgalera_smm.so
wsrep_cluster_address=gcomm://10.0.0.2,10.0.0.5
wsrep_cluster_name='cluster1'
wsrep_node_address='10.0.0.4'
wsrep_node_name='database2'
wsrep_sst_method=rsync
wsrep_sst_auth=root:password

Start cluster using following command.

[root@database2 ~]# /etc/init.d/mysql start
Starting MySQL..... SUCCESS!

Add database3 in MariaDB Cluster
================================
This server is optional, If you want only two server in cluster, you can ignore this step, but you need to remove third server ip from database1/database2 configuration files. To add this server make changes same as database2.

[root@database3 ~]# vim /etc/my.cnf.d/server.cnf
query_cache_size=0
binlog_format=ROW
default_storage_engine=innodb
innodb_autoinc_lock_mode=2
wsrep_provider=/usr/lib/galera/libgalera_smm.so
wsrep_cluster_address=gcomm://10.0.0.2,10.0.0.4
wsrep_cluster_name='cluster1'
wsrep_node_address='10.0.0.5'
wsrep_node_name='database3'
wsrep_sst_method=rsync
wsrep_sst_auth=root:password
Start cluster using following command.

[root@db3 ~]# /etc/init.d/mysql start
Starting MySQL..... SUCCESS!
