## Linux One-Time Setup
All of these command should be run as **root**
### 1. Create AWIPS User
>
>Create user awips and group fxalpha
>
> groupadd fxalpha && useradd -G fxalpha awips
>
>or if the awips account already exists:
>
> groupadd fxalpha && usermod -G fxalpha awips
### 2. Install EDEX
>
>Download and run [install.sh --edex <i class="fa fa-download"></i>](https://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/awips2/install.sh)
>
> wget https://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/awips2/install.sh
> chmod 755 install.sh
> sudo ./install.sh --edex
>
>
>
>!!! note "**install.sh --edex** will perform the following steps (it's always a good idea to review downloaded shell scripts):"
>
> 1. Saves the appropriate Yum repo file to `/etc/yum.repos.d/awips2.repo`
> 2. Increases process and file limits for the the *awips* account in `/etc/security/limits.conf`
> 3. Creates `/awips2/data_store` if it does not exist already
> 4. Runs `yum groupinstall awips2-server`
> 5. Attempts to configure the EDEX hostname defined in `/awips2/edex/bin/setup.env`
> 6. Alerts the user if the *awips* account does not exist (the RPMs will still install)
### 3. EDEX Setup
>
> The command `edex setup` will try to determine your fully-qualified domain name and set it in `/awips2/edex/bin/setup.env`. EDEX Server Administrators should double-check that the addresses and names defined in setup.env are resolvable from both inside and outside the server, and make appropriate edits to `/etc/hosts` if necessary.
>
>For example, in the XSEDE Jetstream cloud, the fully-qualified domain name defined in `/awips2/edex/bin/setup.env`
>
> export EXT_ADDR=js-196-132.jetstream-cloud.org
> export DB_ADDR=localhost
> export DB_PORT=5432
> export BROKER_ADDR=localhost
> export PYPIES_SERVER=http://${EXT_ADDR}:9582
>
>is directed within to localhost in `/etc/hosts`
>
> 127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain js-196-132.jetstream-cloud.org
### 4. Configure iptables
>
>Configure iptables to allow TCP connections on ports 9581 and 9582 if you want to serve data to CAVE clients and the Python API.
>
>If you are running a Registry (Data Delivery) server, you will also want to open port **9588**.
>
>- **To open ports to all connections**
>
> vi /etc/sysconfig/iptables
>
> *filter
> :INPUT ACCEPT [0:0]
> :FORWARD ACCEPT [0:0]
> :OUTPUT ACCEPT [0:0]
> -A INPUT -m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT
> -A INPUT -p icmp -j ACCEPT
> -A INPUT -i lo -j ACCEPT
> -A INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 22 -j ACCEPT
> -A INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 9581 -j ACCEPT
> -A INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 9582 -j ACCEPT
> #-A INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 9588 -j ACCEPT # for registry/dd
> -A INPUT -j REJECT --reject-with icmp-host-prohibited
> -A FORWARD -j REJECT --reject-with icmp-host-prohibited
> COMMIT
>
>- **To open ports to specific IP addresses**
>
> In this example, the IP range `128.117.140.0/24` will match all 128.117.140.* addresses, while `128.117.156.0/24` will match 128.117.156.*.
>
> vi /etc/sysconfig/iptables
>
> *filter
> :INPUT DROP [0:0]
> :FORWARD DROP [0:0]
> :OUTPUT ACCEPT [0:0]
> :EXTERNAL - [0:0]
> :EDEX - [0:0]
> -A INPUT -i lo -j ACCEPT
> -A INPUT -p icmp --icmp-type any -j ACCEPT
> -A INPUT -m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT
> -A INPUT -s 128.117.140.0/24 -j EDEX
> -A INPUT -s 128.117.156.0/24 -j EDEX
> -A INPUT -j EXTERNAL
> -A EXTERNAL -j REJECT
> -A EDEX -m state --state NEW -p tcp --dport 22 -j ACCEPT
> -A EDEX -m state --state NEW -p tcp --dport 9581 -j ACCEPT
> -A EDEX -m state --state NEW -p tcp --dport 9582 -j ACCEPT
> #-A EDEX -m state --state NEW -p tcp --dport 9588 -j ACCEPT # for registry/dd
> -A EDEX -j REJECT
> COMMIT
>
>**Restart iptables**
>
> service iptables restart
>
>For CentOS 7 error *Redirecting to /bin/systemctl restart iptables.service
>Failed to restart iptables.service: Unit iptables.service failed to load: No such file or directory.*
>
>The solution is:
>
> yum install iptables-services
> systemctl enable iptables
> service iptables restart
### 5. Start EDEX
>
> edex setup
> edex start
>
>To manually start, stop, and restart:
>
> service edex_postgres start
> service httpd-pypies start
> service qpidd start
> service edex_camel start
>
>The fifth service, **edex_ldm**, does **not run at boot** to prevent filling up disk space if EDEX is not running.
>
> ldmadmin start
>
>To start *all services except the LDM* (good for troubleshooting):
>
> edex start base
>
>To restart EDEX
>
> edex restart

## Additional Steps
### /etc/security/limits.conf
**/etc/security/limits.conf** defines the number of user processes and files (this step is automatically performed by `install.sh --edex`). Without these definitions, Qpid is known to crash during periods of high ingest.
awips soft nproc 65536
awips soft nofile 65536

### Ensure SELinux is Disabled
vi /etc/sysconfig/selinux
# This file controls the state of SELinux on the system.
# SELINUX= can take one of these three values:
# enforcing - SELinux security policy is enforced.
# permissive - SELinux prints warnings instead of enforcing.
# disabled - No SELinux policy is loaded.
SELINUX=disabled
# SELINUXTYPE= can take one of these two values:
# targeted - Targeted processes are protected,
# mls - Multi Level Security protection.
SELINUXTYPE=targeted
!!! note "Read more about selinux at [redhat.com](https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html/Security-Enhanced_Linux/sect-Security-Enhanced_Linux-Enabling_and_Disabling_SELinux-Disabling_SELinux.html)"

### SSD Mount
Though a Solid State Drive is not required, it is *strongly encouraged* in order to handle the amount of disk IO for real-time IDD feeds.
The simplest configuration would be to mount an 500GB+ SSD to **/awips2** to contain both the installed software (approx. 20GB) and the real-time data (approx. 150GB per day).
The default [purge rules]() are configured such that **/awips2** does not exceed 450GB. **/awips2/data_store** is scoured every hour and should not exceed 50GB.
If you want to increase EDEX data retention you should mount a large disk to **/awips2/edex/data/hdf5** since this will be where the archived processed data exists, and any case studies created.
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda1 30G 2.5G 26G 9% /
tmpfs 28G 0 28G 0% /dev/shm
/dev/sdc1 788G 81G 667G 11% /awips2
/dev/sdb1 788G 41G 708G 10% /awips2/edex/data/hdf5

### Configure LDM Feeds
EDEX installs its own version of the LDM to the directory **/awips2/ldm**. As with a the default LDM configuration, two files are used to control what IDD feeds are ingested:
* **/awips2/ldm/etc/ldmd.conf** - specifies an upstream LDM server to request data from, and what feeds to request:
REQUEST NEXRAD3 "./p(DHR|DPR|DSP|DTA|DAA|DVL|EET|HHC|N0Q|N0S|N0U|OHA|NVW|NTV|NST)." idd.unidata.ucar.edu
REQUEST FNEXRAD|IDS|DDPLUS|UNIWISC ".*" idd.unidata.ucar.edu
REQUEST NGRID ".*" idd.unidata.ucar.edu
REQUEST NOTHER "^TIP... KNES.*" idd.unidata.ucar.edu
!!! note "[read more about ldmd.conf in the LDM User Manual](https://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/ldm/ldm-current/basics/ldmd.conf.html)"
* **/awips2/ldm/etc/pqact.conf** - specifies the WMO headers and file pattern actions to request:
# Redbook graphics
ANY ^([PQ][A-Z0-9]{3,5}) (....) (..)(..)(..) !redbook [^/]*/([^/]*)/([^/]*)/([^/]*)/([0-9]{8})
FILE -overwrite -close -edex /awips2/data_store/redbook/\8/\4\5Z_\8_\7_\6-\1_\2_(seq).rb.%Y%m%d%H
