Installation experiences with Q1-2020 Fameflower

all

Hear about the installation experiences of those of us who have stood up Q1 and done any testing.

• @Johannes Drexl reports unable to run distributed Okapi on Java 11 (OpenJDK), and Java 8 is coming to EOL September or October.

  • Java issues:

    • FOLIO-1589: Replace Oracle JDK 8 by January 2019ClosedPreview

    • FOLIO-2429: Create base Java docker image for recent version (JDK 11 support)ClosedPreview

  • @jroot (Unlicensed) mentions there is an existing JIRA issue with embedded Postgres which is preventing some back-end modules. Also, storage module are all now supporting Postgres 10, still work to do to support Postgres 12.

  • Debian package for Okapi still has security issues. @Johannes Drexl will work out build process and give to @Adam Dickmeiss.

Lessons learned from our installation experiences.

Summarize / organize our findings

all

Much has been going on in the Slack chat since the last meeting.

Topics from the Slack chat:

Upgrade Path

• organize Jason's and others' experiences in Jira-Tickets

• JIRAs for migration issues

• Is there an upgrade guide ?

New components: Kafka, Mod PubSub

• Scaling of Mod PubSub, How many instances of Kafka

• the order to bring up pieces in the Folio system: DBs first, then Okapi, Kafka, mod-pubsub, lastly the rest.

New edge-ncip module

• permissions / edge "service accounts" / documentation for the edge or ncip module.

• Slack thread: https://folio-project.slack.com/archives/C9BBWRCNB/p1586806066089700


Get back on creating the SysOps guide and architecture reference (Jason, Wayne)

mod-source-record-storage 3.0.2 (Edelweiss) and 3.1.3 (Fameflower) don't co-exist well in the same database

• co-location of different releases in the same postgres instance is becoming important for hosting environments.

• hosting providers want to have shared databases. They will need to do upgrades at once

• This is difficult to test - you need various tenants with large amounts of data

Database changes from Q4 to Q1: Chicago did a diff and Dale will put it on Slack.

Fameflower hotfixes, scheduled for April 27

• Mainly this is to get Data Import and in-place-migration working.

• @Hkaplanian  reports there are still several outstanding issues, will meet on Monday to check status.

Topics for next sessions

• Want to cycle back on the security audit. Want to hear about the results of the recent audit (that was paid for). We need to get a "safe harbor" statement. Currently, this is on the agenda of the TC. Tod will talk to Stephen to hear if we can have an update in SysOps next week.
