Ubuntu 13.04 and Neo4j in just a few simple steps

Ubuntu 13.04 from (http://www.ubuntu.com/start-download?distro=desktop&bits=32&release=latest)

There is really no reason to write this since the instructions to install both Ubuntu 13.04 and Neo4j are sufficient. But then you always seems to end up with a tweak somewhere so...


Just step though the Ubuntu 13.04 installation screens and fill in the values you need to change






Reboot and you should a brand new Ubuntu installation to play with.

Now lets add Neo4j. Fire up a terminal and write sudo -s to get root priviliges:


From this point execute the following commands as root:

    apt-get update
   apt-get upgrade
   wget -O - http://debian.neo4j.org/neotechnology.gpg.key | apt-key add -
   echo 'deb http://debian.neo4j.org/repo stable/' > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/neo4j.list
   apt-get update
   apt-get install neo4j
   service neo4j-service status

Should provide the result "Neo4j Server is running at pid ".

Next is to fire up the browser and check that the webadmin is responsive at http://localhost:7474



Now a brand new Neo4j installation is up and running. Great whats next?

Possible SYN flooding on port 3306 (MySQL)

The system setup is such that the MySQL servers that put the "Possible SYN flooding on port 3306" in the log files only are exposed to system internal backend services. These in turn aren't exposed to the wild wild web. Fronting the system we have the servers publishing services to internet. Thus I was kind of stunned when the log messages started to appear and even though we had done a release of the system I found it far fetched that we should start to DOS our self. So why did the messages appear? Two different error messages could be identified in the log files and they seem to be related, especially since the Java servers with link failure do communicate with the MySQL servers. Possible SYN flooding on port 3306 @ MySQL server Communication link failure @ Java backend servers After some tcpdumping, head scratching and googling I think I have it down to the root cause, hidden in how TCP works in general, and the OS config in combi...

Part 1 - Disaster Recovery with SRM and vSphere Replication

Image
Abstract  The company I work for has needs for disaster recovery but there is also external demands for it. The company not being very big has so far not been able to implement any automated disaster recovery solution although we do have a documented disaster recovery plan. The plan regardless of how good or bad it is isn't tested in a long time and the RTO (Recovery Time Objective) is wished by management to be days but I can't see that it is anything else than weeks. Since we virtualized our production system I've been looking at VMware vCenter Site Recovery Manager as a driver but the cost array based replication has stopped any attempts dead in their tracks. VMware vSphere® Replication has been around for a while now and we hope that it's hardened enough for a slightly bigger production critical implementation. In this article I will try to document and explain how we experiment, design and implement disaster recovery and even more important, in my opinion...

Part 2 - Disaster Recovery with SRM and vSphere Replication

Image
In the previous article we went through the installation and configuration of the SRM and vSphere infrastructure. The time has now come to actually doing some tests and failover some VM's.  In the simple scenario I expect everything to go smoothly but there are a few things that I'm concerned about at this point since the protected environment I'm ultimately is failing over isn't so simple. It has multiple dvSwitches, vLans, load balancer, firewall, ldap, a set of test drivers to verify the integrity of the system and access to the system in a sensible way for administrators so there are a few things that needs to be resolved. Protected Setup Test Failover The small test In this scenario I do a test failover of a single machine and verifies that it starts and that I can log into it. The steps are: Setup the machine running RHEL 5.5.  Install VMware tools  Kick of the vSphere Replication Create a Protection Group and ... no that didn...
