For additional information on verifying pre-requisites refer this article. This installation installs QMetry over Apache Tomcat 9.x, MySQL v5.7.29 and Open JDK 11 in a docker container.
- QMetry Installation is supported only on Linux - Cent OS 7 and 8, and RHEL 7 and 8. No other OS is certified for QMetry Installation.
- 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, wget, curl and vim.
- Internet access should be enabled on all 3 servers to install using docker.
- Firewall and selinux must be disabled on the server while installing QMetry and Reports.
- Ensure Proxy Servers are not blocking downloads from the Internet.
- Application, DB and Report servers should be in the same network. QMetry and Report Servers should be able to communicate over 80/443 and Database Server 3306/DB Ports. Ports 8080 and 33061 should be enabled/open on Reports Server to allow connections from QMetry application server.
- The ports 80/443 and 3306 on the respective servers should be free and should not be in use by other applications. QMetry App server should be able to communicate with the reports server on port 33061.
- 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 database is saved under : /var/lib/docker/volumes/qmetry_mysql_data/_data
- Data of QMetry attachments added is saved under : /var/lib/docker/volumes/qmetry_attachment/_data
- Get the following files from QMetry Support : QMetryApp.zip, QMetryRDS.zip, Spark_Report_Install.zip and docker credentials required for installation. Post installation, QMetry Application and Report tool both should be configured either on https or http.
- If you are planning Jira integration with QMetry and Jira is running on https, make sure your QMetry is also running over https protocol. QMetry and Jira should run on the same protocol.
- Following Ports should be open:
