Hello! I have managed to install and configure multiple BBB servers without a problem but now i need a scalable solution and i have to use scalelite. I have read the github documentation but i don't understand how i am supposed to install scalelite.

I have a vm with 8 cores 32gb ram and i am planning to install there scalelite, redis and postgres. i have docker installed but then i don't know what are the next steps. Do i have to clone the scalelite repo? if yes. where?

how to i run/download the scalelite docker image? the documentation refers only the configuration of files needed. 

I need a short guidance with the order of actions I have to do. Is there any more detailed documentation ?

thanks in advance!

;-) you only need the config files ...

so just create the systemd files from the git repo (if you check it out whereever you like) or create them as described in the docs.

then make the config changes as needed / described in the docs)

then start scalelite.target.


it really does not need more.

cheers

Great, thanks, a final question , if I deploy redis and postgre at docker containers and set them at the same network bridge with scalelite, the host url of redis and postgre what it should be? The ip that docker bridge assigns is dynamic as far as I know.


in that case you would give this container a name - so use the name as url.

e.g. redis://redis

if you named it redis.

cheers

You are right,  there is a command for loading db schema, I suppose this command works after I have installed postgre and connect it with scalelite. 

About joining servers at the pool, the url format should be like this: bbb1.host.com/bigbluebutton or bbb1.host.com/api ?

Hi,


no, there is no problem, we have both installed locally without containers.

Just make sure you have the correct host (for us the public ip) instead of docker interanal host/ip settings.


I am not sure, but I think there was a command to create the db ...nothing in the docs?

Thanks for the reply Martin!

About postgresql is there any problem to just install it at the system without containers? Do I have to import any "demo" db first or scalelite creates the db schema and tables automatically?

About redis is there any problem to install it at system without using container?
