pageUpgrade

Prerequisites

• SQLFlow on-premise version

• Java 8

• Port needs to be opened. (The default port is 8165 but you can customized this port)

• At least 8GB memory

Setup Environment

• Java setup environment link

# setup java environment
echo export "JAVA_HOME=\$(/usr/libexec/java_home)" >> ~/.bash_profile
source ~/.bash_profile

Upload Files

create a directory :

# example you can use other path
sudo mkdir -p /wings/sqlflow

upload your backend and frontend file to sqlflow folder, like this :

/wings/
└── sqlflow

Backend Services Configuration

sqlflow provides several options to control the service analysis logic. Open the sqlservice configuration file(conf/gudu_sqlflow.conf)

• user_token_expire_hours: default value is 24. User can customize the TTL of the token by setting this field. In case user_token_expire_hours less than or equals to 0, the user token would never expire.

• ignore_user_token: default value is false, token auth is skipped in case the value is set to true.

• relation_limit: default value is 1000. When the count of selected object relations is greater than relation_limit, sqlflow will fallback to the simple mode, ignore all the record sets. If the relations of simple mode are still greater than relation_limit, sqlflow will only show the summary information.

• big_sql_size: default value is 4096. If the sql length is greater than big_sql_size, sqlflow submit the sql in the work queue and execute it. If the work queue is full, sqlflow throws an exception and returns error message "Sorry, the service is busy. Please try again later."

Start Backend Services

You can assign the RAM to SQLFlow by specifying the boot parameter when starting the service.

 backend.sh /m <RAM_VALUE>

The RAM_VALUE could be: 4g 8g 16g 32g or 64g.

SQLFlow will automatically allocate the memory based on the status of the installed server if this parameter is not given. SQLFlow would allocate less than 31 GB memory if that is the case. However, if your total memory is less than 32 GB, SQLFlow would allocate all the remaining memory on your server.

start service in background:

sh /wings/sqlflow/backend/bin/backend.sh

please allow 1-2 minutes to start the service.

use jps to check those 3 processing are running.

Java service port

File	Port
eureka.jar	8761
gspLive.jar	8165
sqlservice.jar	8083

Customize the port

If you don't want to change the default service port you can just ignore this section. Otherwise this section will show you how to customize the port.

1. Default port

1. Web port is 8165

2. SQLFlow backend service port:

File	Port
eureka.jar	8761
gspLive.jar	8165
sqlservice.jar	8083

2. Change the default port in gspLive.sh(gspLive.bat)

You can change the web or backend api port from 8165 to any available port.

Add the following section in gspLive.sh(or gspLive.bat in Windows):

--server.port=<customized_port>
