- Three Linux Servers are required: QMetry Database, QMetry Application, and QMetry Reporting tool. These three servers should be on the same network and able to communicate with each other. Refer QMetry Deployment Document for the requirements.
- All the servers should have support of these commands: unzip, curl and vim.
- Internet access should be enabled on all 3 servers to install using docker.
- Ensure Proxy Servers are not blocking downloads from the Internet.
- Docker installation requires root user access. To install using a non-root user, follow the steps specified here before starting the install on both QMetry and Report servers.
- Docker is installed under /var/lib/ directory. We recommend allocating enough space here to ensure QMetry has enough space to save your data.
- Data of QMetry attachments added is saved under : /var/lib/docker/volumes/qmetry85_qmetry_attachment/_data
- Get the following files from QMetry Support: QMetryApp.zip, QMetryReport.zip, License and docker credentials required for installation.
- Post installation, QMetry Application and Report tool both should be configured either on https or http.
- Following Ports should be open:
...
- Keep the license file received along with the installation in opt directory.
- Copy the license file placed on your server /opt/ directory inside the docker.
- cd /opt
- docker cp /opt/license.key <docker_name>:/home/qmetry/QMetry/bin/
- example : docker cp /opt/license.key qmetry85qmetry_qtmapp_1:/home/qmetry/QMetry/bin/
- Restart docker services to reflect the license.
- docker stop <docker_name>
- example : docker stop qmetry85stop qmetry_qtmapp_1
- docker start <docker_name>
- example : docker start qmetry85start qmetry_qtmapp_1
Step 6. Access QMetry application using the following details:
