Installing CouchDB on Ubuntu 14 LTS.

CouchDB is a database that completely embraces the web. Store your data with JSON documents. Access your documents and query your indexes with your web browser, via HTTP. Index, combine, and transform your documents with JavaScript. CouchDB works well with modern web and mobile apps. You can even serve web apps directly out of CouchDB. And you can distribute your data, or your apps, efficiently using CouchDB’s incremental replication. CouchDB supports master-master setups with automatic conflict detection.

Cloudera Manager - Duplicate entry 'zookeeper' for key 'NAME'.

We had recently built a cluster using cloudera API’s and had all the services running on it with Kerberos enabled. Next we had a requirement to add another kafka cluster to our already exsisting cluster in cloudera manager. Since it is a quick task to get the zookeeper and kafka up and running. We decided to get this done using the cloudera manager instead of the API’s. But we faced the Duplicate entry 'zookeeper' for key 'NAME' issue as described in the bug below. https://issues.cloudera.org/browse/DISTRO-790 I have set up two clusters that share a Cloudera Manger. The first I set up with the API and created the services with capital letter names, e.g., ZOOKEEPER, HDFS, HIVE. Now, I add the second cluster using the Wizard. Add Cluster->Select Hosts->Distribute Parcels->Select base HDFS Cluster install On the next page i get SQL errros telling that the services i want to add already exist. I suspect that the check for existing service names does n

Zabbix History Table Clean Up

Zabbix history table gets really big, and if you are in a situation where you want to clean it up. Then we can do so, using the below steps. Stop zabbix server. Take table backup - just in case.

Access Filter in SSSD `ldap_access_filter` [SSSD Access denied / Permission denied ]

Access Filter Setup with SSSD ldap_access_filter (string) If using access_provider = ldap , this option is mandatory. It specifies an LDAP search filter criteria that must be met for the user to be granted access on this host. If access_provider = ldap and this option is not set, it will result in all users being denied access. Use access_provider = allow to change this default behaviour. Example: access_provider = ldap ldap_access_filter = memberOf=cn=allowed_user_groups,ou=Groups,dc=example,dc=com Prerequisites yum install sssd Single LDAP Group Under domain/default in /etc/sssd/sssd.conf add: access_provider = ldap ldap_access_filter = memberOf=cn=Group Name,ou=Groups,dc=example,dc=com Multiple LDAP Groups Under domain/default in /etc/sssd/sssd.conf add: access_provider = ldap ldap_access_filter = (|(memberOf=cn=System Adminstrators,ou=Groups,dc=example,dc=com)(memberOf=cn=Database Users,ou=Groups,dc=example,dc=com)) ldap_access_filter accepts standa
