Lotus Installation and Testing Experiences

Those who have implemented it, already

  • Ingolf has problems with upgrading from Kiwi to Lotus with Okapi deployment on a single server

    • Ingolf: install endpoint of Okapi fails several times, also failed in previous flower release upgrades

    • (Jason) Don't upgrade with loadReference=true, always use loadReference=false there

    • update on a test server first, not with real data

    • Jason: I create a new tenant (on an existing cluster) to test the deployment of a new flower release

    • reference data needed in addition by the new (or modified) modules should be loaded after the fact

  • Florian G.: Might need to change timeouts of nginx

  • Nils: 40 GB RAM could be a problem

  • ---------------------------------------------------------

  • Florian Kreft has given a presentation of the deployment methods, Florian K. and Florian G. developed at LRZ Munich, in the German group and would like to present this to the international group. 

    • Based largely on the work of Jason Root at TAMU
