    For Windows, Unidata offers two installation options: a Linux Virtual Machine, or a Direct Windows Installation.

    Currently, the virtual machine (VM) is the recommended form of install for those who do not have administrative priviledges on the machine, or beginners who want a simpler installation process.

        MacOS Monterey version 12.3 and above no longer supports Python2. This will cause several visualization aspects to fail in CAVE. If you update to MacOS 12.3 CAVE will not be fully functional. A potential workaround is to run a Virtual Machine with a different OS (older Mac or possibly CentOS7) and run CAVE inside of that.

          EDEX is the Environmental Data Exchange system that represents the backend server for AWIPS. EDEX is only supported for Linux systems: CentOS and RHEL, and ideally, it should be on its own dedicated machine. It requires administrator priviledges to make root-level changes. EDEX can run on a single machine or be spread across multiple machines. To learn more about that please look at Distributed EDEX, Installing Across Multiple Machines

To learn more about that please look at \nDistributed EDEX, Installing Across Multiple Machines\n\n\n\n\nLatest Version\n\uf0c1\n\n\n18.2.1-5\n\n\nView release notes\n\n\n\n\nSystem requirements\n\uf0c1\n\n\n\n\n64-bit CentOS/RHEL 7\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhile CentOS8 has reach End of Life as of Dec. 31, 2021, CentOS7 End of Life isn't until June 30, 2024.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n16+ CPU cores (each CPU core can run a decorder in parallel)\n\n\n24GB RAM\n\n\n700GB+ Disk Space\n\n\ngcc-c++ package\n\n\nRun \nrpm -qa | grep gcc-c++\n to verify if the package is installed\n\n\nIf it is not installed, run \nyum install gcc-c++\n to install the package\n\n\n\n\n\n\nA \nSolid State Drive (SSD)\n is recommended\n\n\nA SSD should be mounted either to \n/awips2\n (to contain the entire EDEX system) or to \n/awips2/edex/data/hdf5\n (to contain the large files in the decoded data store). EDEX can scale to any system by adjusting the incoming LDM data feeds or adjusting the resources (CPU threads) allocated to each data type.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEDEX is only supported for 64-bit CentOS and RHEL 7 Operating Systems.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEDEX is \nnot\n supported in Debian, Ubuntu, SUSE, Solaris, macOS, or Windows. You may have luck with Fedora Core 12 to 14 and Scientific Linux, but we will not provide support.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDownload and Installation Instructions\n\uf0c1\n\n\nThe first 3 steps should all be run as \nroot\n\n\n1. Install EDEX\n\uf0c1\n\n\nDownload and run the installer: \nawips_install.sh\n \n\n\nwget https://downloads.unidata.ucar.edu/awips2/current/linux/awips_install.sh\nchmod 755 awips_install.sh\nsudo ./awips_install.sh --edex\n\n\n\n\n\nawips_install.sh --edex\n will perform the following steps (it's always a good idea to review downloaded shell scripts):\n\n\n\n\nChecks to see if EDEX is currently running, if so stops the processes with the \nedex stop\n command\n\n\nIf EDEX is installed, asks the user if it can be removed and where to backup the data to and does a \nyum groupremove awips2-server\n\n\nIf the user/group awips:fxalpha does not exist, it gets created\n\n\nSaves the appropriate yum repo file to \n/etc/yum.repos.d/awips2.repo\n\n\nIncreases process and file limits for the the \nawips\n account in \n/etc/security/limits.conf\n\n\nCreates \n/awips2/data_store\n if it does not exist already\n\n\nRuns \nyum groupinstall awips2-server\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIf you receive an error relating to yum, then please run\n\n\nsudo su - -c \"[PATH_TO_INSTALL_FILE]/awips_install.sh --edex\"\n\n\n\n\n2. EDEX Setup\n\uf0c1\n\n\nThe external and localhost addresses need to be specified in \n/etc/hosts\n\n\n127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain\nXXX.XXX.XXX.XXX edex-cloud edex-cloud.unidata.ucar.edu\n\n\n\n\n3. Configure iptables\n\uf0c1\n\n\nThis should be a one time configuration change. Configure iptables to allow TCP connections on ports 9581 and 9582 if you want to serve data publicly to CAVE clients and the Python API.\n\n\nOpen Port 9588\n\uf0c1\n\n\nIf you are running a Registry (Data Delivery) server, you will also want to open port \n9588\n.\n\n\nTo open ports to all connections\n\uf0c1\n\n\nvi /etc/sysconfig/iptables\n\n*filter\n:INPUT ACCEPT [0:0]\n:FORWARD ACCEPT [0:0]\n:OUTPUT ACCEPT [0:0]\n-A INPUT -m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT\n-A INPUT -p icmp -j ACCEPT\n-A INPUT -i lo -j ACCEPT\n-A INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 22 -j ACCEPT\n-A INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 9581 -j ACCEPT\n-A INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 9582 -j ACCEPT\n#-A INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 9588 -j ACCEPT # for registry/dd\n-A INPUT -j REJECT --reject-with icmp-host-prohibited\n-A FORWARD -j REJECT --reject-with icmp-host-prohibited\nCOMMIT\n\n\n\nTo open ports to specific IP addresses\n\uf0c1\n\n\nIn this example, the IP range \n128.117.140.0/24\n will match all 128.117.140.* addresses, while \n128.117.156.0/24\n will match 128.117.156.*.\n\n\nvi /etc/sysconfig/iptables\n\n*filter\n:INPUT DROP [0:0]\n:FORWARD DROP [0:0]\n:OUTPUT ACCEPT [0:0]\n:EXTERNAL - [0:0]\n:EDEX - [0:0]\n-A INPUT -i lo -j ACCEPT\n-A INPUT -p icmp --icmp-type any -j ACCEPT\n-A INPUT -m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT\n-A INPUT -s 128.117.140.0/24 -j EDEX\n-A INPUT -s 128.117.156.0/24 -j EDEX\n-A INPUT -j EXTERNAL\n-A EXTERNAL -j REJECT\n-A EDEX -m state --state NEW -p tcp --dport 22 -j ACCEPT\n-A EDEX -m state --state NEW -p tcp --dport 9581 -j ACCEPT\n-A EDEX -m state --state NEW -p tcp --dport 9582 -j ACCEPT\n#-A EDEX -m state --state NEW -p tcp --dport 9588 -j ACCEPT # for registry/dd\n-A EDEX -j REJECT\nCOMMIT\n\n\n\nRestart iptables\n\uf0c1\n\n\nservice iptables restart\n\n\n\nTroubleshooting\n\uf0c1\n\n\nFor CentOS 7 error:\n\n\nRedirecting to /bin/systemctl restart iptables.service \nFailed to restart iptables.service: Unit iptables.service failed to load: No such file or directory.\n\n\n\nThe solution is:\n\n\nyum install iptables-services\nsystemctl enable iptables\nservice iptables restart\n\n\n\n4. Start EDEX\n\uf0c1\n\n\n\n\nThese steps should be run as user \nawips\n with sudo. Switch to the user by running \nsu - awips\n.\n\n\n\n\nedex start\n\n\n\nTo manually start, stop, and restart:\n\n\nservice edex_postgres start\nservice httpd-pypies start\nservice qpidd start\nservice edex_camel start\n\n\n\nThe fifth service, \nedex_ldm\n, does \nnot run at boot\n to prevent filling up disk space if EDEX is not running. Start ldm manually:\n\n\nservice edex_ldm start\n\n\n\nTo restart EDEX\n\n\nedex restart\n\n\n\n\n\nAdditional Notes\n\uf0c1\n\n\nEnsure SELinux is Disabled\n\uf0c1\n\n\nvi /etc/sysconfig/selinux\n\n# This file controls the state of SELinux on the system.\n# SELINUX= can take one of these three values:\n# enforcing - SELinux security policy is enforced.\n# permissive - SELinux prints warnings instead of enforcing.\n# disabled - No SELinux policy is loaded.\nSELINUX=disabled\n# SELINUXTYPE= can take one of these two values:\n# targeted - Targeted processes are protected,\n# mls - Multi Level Security protection.\nSELINUXTYPE=targeted\n\n\n\n\n\nRead more about selinux at \nredhat.com\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSSD Mount\n\uf0c1\n\n\nThough a Solid State Drive is not required, it is \nstrongly encouraged\n in order to handle the amount of disk IO for real-time IDD feeds.\n\n\nThe simplest configuration would be to mount an 500GB+ SSD to \n/awips2\n to contain both the installed software (approx. 20GB) and the real-time data (approx. 150GB per day).\n\n\nThe default \npurge rules\n are configured such that the processed data in \n/awips2\n does not exceed 450GB. The raw data is located in \n/awips2/data_store\n, and is scoured every hour and should not exceed 50GB.\n\n\nIf you want to increase EDEX data retention you should mount a large disk to \n/awips2/edex/data/hdf5\n since this will be where the archived processed data exists, and any case studies created.\n\n\nFilesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on\n/dev/sda1 30G 2.5G 26G 9% /\ntmpfs 28G 0 28G 0% /dev/shm\n/dev/sdc1 788G 81G 667G 11% /awips2\n/dev/sdb1 788G 41G 708G 10% /awips2/edex/data/hdf5\n\n\n\n\n\nConfigure LDM Feeds\n\uf0c1\n\n\nEDEX installs its own version of the LDM to the directory \n/awips2/ldm\n. As with a the default LDM configuration, two files are used to control what IDD feeds are ingested:\n\n\nConfiguration file: /awips2/ldm/etc/ldmd.conf\n\uf0c1\n\n\nThis file specifies an upstream LDM server to request data from, and what feeds to request:\n\n\nREQUEST NEXRAD3 \"./p(DHR|DPR|DSP|DTA|DAA|DVL|EET|HHC|N0Q|N0S|N0U|OHA|NVW|NTV|NST).\" idd.unidata.ucar.edu\nREQUEST FNEXRAD|IDS|DDPLUS|UNIWISC \".*\" idd.unidata.ucar.edu\nREQUEST NGRID \".*\" idd.unidata.ucar.edu\nREQUEST NOTHER \"^TIP...
