Here I will use WSO2 DSS as the product and WSO2 GREG for registry mounting.
This is what we are going to do!
Now it is time to configure these products.
1. Download DSS 3.1.1 from here
2. Download GREG 4.6.0 from here
3. Create a database in MySQL and assign user priviledges with the following commands.
mysql>create database regdb;
mysql>use regdb;
mysql>grant all on regdb.* TO regadmin@localhost identified by "regadmin";
4. Extract the GREG 4.6.0 zip file and change the configured datasource in $GREG_HOME/repository/conf/datasources/master-datasources.xml file in order to tell GREG to run on top of the MySQL datasource instead of default H2 datasource
For that replace
<datasource>
<name>WSO2_CARBON_DB</name>
<description>The datasource used for registry and user manager</description>
<jndiConfig>
<name>jdbc/WSO2CarbonDB</name>
</jndiConfig>
<definition type="RDBMS">
<configuration>
<url>jdbc:h2:repository/database/WSO2CARBON_DB;DB_CLOSE_ON_EXIT=FALSE;LOCK_TIMEOUT=60000</url>
<username>wso2carbon</username>
<password>wso2carbon</password>
<driverClassName>org.h2.Driver</driverClassName>
<maxActive>50</maxActive>
<maxWait>60000</maxWait>
<testOnBorrow>true</testOnBorrow>
<validationQuery>SELECT 1</validationQuery>
<validationInterval>30000</validationInterval>
</configuration>
</definition>
</datasource>
with the following content
<datasource>
<name>WSO2_CARBON_DB</name>
<description>The datasource used for registry and user manager</description>
<jndiConfig>
<name>jdbc/WSO2CarbonDB</name>
</jndiConfig>
<definition type="RDBMS">
<configuration>
<url>jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/regdb</url>
<username>regadmin</username>
<password>regadmin</password>
<driverClassName>com.mysql.jdbc.Driver</driverClassName>
<maxActive>80</maxActive>
<maxWait>60000</maxWait>
<minIdle>5</minIdle>
<testOnBorrow>true</testOnBorrow>
<validationQuery>SELECT 1</validationQuery>
<validationInterval>30000</validationInterval>
</configuration>
</definition>
</datasource>
5. Download the MySQL JDBC driver connector JAR from here and place it in the $GREG_HOME/repository/components/lib directory.
6. Start the GREG server with the following command
For Linux : wso2server.sh -Dsetup
For Windows : wso2server.bat -Dsetup
This will start GREG on MySQL and setup the regdb database. The work by GREG is done now.
7. We have to configure DSS products as well. As we are having two DSS instance we have to make two copies.
8. As we are running two WSO2 product instances in the same machine, we have to change running ports for each products. We can change the port by changing the following value in $DSS_HOME/repository/conf/carbon.xml
<Offset>1</Offset>
Then it will run on HTTP port 9764 and HTTPS port 9444.
9. Put the following content to the $DSS_HOME/repository/conf/registry.xml for registry mounting in both DSS instances
<dbConfig name="mysql-reg">
<url>jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/regdb</url>
<userName>regadmin</userName>
<password>regadmin</password>
<driverName>com.mysql.jdbc.Driver</driverName>
<maxActive>5</maxActive>
<maxWait>60000</maxWait>
<minIdle>50</minIdle>
<validationQuery>SELECT 1</validationQuery>
</dbConfig>
<remoteInstance url="https://localhost:9443/registry">
<id>conf-gov-registry</id>
<dbConfig>mysql-reg</dbConfig>
<readOnly>false</readOnly>
<enableCache>true</enableCache>
<registryRoot>/</registryRoot>
</remoteInstance>
<!-- Governance data will be stored in /_system/governance collection of central registry instance -->
<mount overwrite="true" path="/_system/governance">
<instanceId>conf-gov-registry</instanceId>
<targetPath>/_system/governance</targetPath>
</mount>
<!-- Configuration data will be stored in /_system/dssnodes collection of central registry instance -->
<mount overwrite="true" path="/_system/config">
<instanceId>conf-gov-registry</instanceId>
<targetPath>/_system/esbnodes</targetPath>
</mount>
10. Drop the MySQL driver into $DSS_HOME/repository/components/lib directory which is downloaded in the step5
11. By Default the All WSO2 products starts with STANDALONE mode. We have to tell the DSS product to start in CLUSTERED mode. We can enable it by the setting the following property in $DSS_HOME/repository/conf/axis2/axis2.xml to true
<clustering class="org.wso2.carbon.core.clustering.hazelcast.HazelcastClusteringAgent"
enable="true">
12. We have to tell the cluster how many servers are running explicitly.This can be configured in the $DSS_HOME/repository/conf/etc/tasks-config.xml
<taskServerCount>2</taskServerCount>
With this configuration the server starts first will be waiting for others. (ie. It knows that there are two servers in the cluster and have to wait for the other one.)
12. Now, we are done with the configurations. You can test the clustering and registry mounting through task scheduling. More info available in docs. Once we schedule a task from one DSS instance, that particular task is shared with the other instance as well.
