Datastax Enterprise Chef Cookbook (Apache Cassandra)

This cookbook installs and configures Datastax Enterprise. More info is here (DataStax Enterprise).

It uses officially released Datastax packages. It can tweak the Cassandra config files, but has no way of adding data or creating keyspaces in Cassandra (yet).

Usage

This cookbook is designed to be used in conjuction with a wrapper cookbook. Used alone, a single node cluster can be created, but in order to create a multiple node cluster a wrapper is recommended.

Example in a wrapper:

node.default['java']['jdk_version'] = "7"
node.default['cassandra']['seeds'] = "192.168.1.1, 192.168.1.2"
node.default['cassandra']['dse_version'] = "4.0.3-1"
node.default['cassandra']['max_heap_size'] = "12G"
node.default['cassandra']['heap_newsize'] = "1200M"

include_recipe "dse::cassandra"

Scope

This cookbook attempts to manage almost all Apache Cassandra configuration settings. It can also create Hadoop and Solr nodes, with less attribute to manage their config.

Apache Cassandra

This cookbook currently provides

  • Datastax 4.x.x (Datastax Enterprise Edition) via packages.

Requirements

  • Chef 11 or higher

Supported OS Distributions

Tested on:

  • RHEL 6.3, 6.4
  • Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS
  • Slight testing done on Ubuntu 12.04 (will require some edits)

Recipes

The provided recipes are dse::cassandra, dse::solr, and dse::hadoop
* dse::cassandra will provision DSE as a cassandra node.
* dse::solr will provision DSE with solr enabled.
* dse::hadoop will provision DSE with hadoop enabled.

There are also recipes that should not be called directly that are used for configuration.
* dse::default sets up the templates
* dse::datastax sets up the datastax repos
* dse::datstax-agent configures the datastax-agent if needed
* dse::ssl (work in progress) sets up SSL keys on all nodes

Attributes

This cookbook will install DSE Cassandra by default. Other attributes you can set are:
