RemoteLabz's worker update guide

Save your .env file

All configuration variables are saved in the file .env.local or if you don't have this file, in the file .env If you don't have a .env.local, save your .env to .env.local

sudo -u remotelabz cp .env .env.local

Update the code

cd /opt/remotelabz-worker
git fetch
git pull

Info

To choose a specific version :

git checkout tags/2.X.Y

or a branch

git checkout dev

Compare your .env.local file with the .env file to be sure the same parameters are set

sudo composer update
sudo php bin/console cache:clear
sudo chown remotelabz-worker:www-data * -R
sudo chmod g+w /opt/remotelabz-worker/var -R
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo service remotelabz-worker restart

From 2.4.2.6 and above to version 2.4.3

When you link a worker to the front, don't forget to add the following lines on the /opt/remotelabz-worker/config/packages/messenger.yaml file, in the part

framework:
    messenger:
        transports:
            async: '%env(MESSENGER_TRANSPORT_DSN)%'
            worker: 
                dsn: '%env(MESSENGER_TRANSPORT_DSN)%'
                options:

On your first worker Worker_1

queues:
    messages_worker1:
        binding_keys: [Worker_1-IP]

On your second worker Worker_2

queues:
    messages_worker2:
        binding_keys: [Worker_2-IP]

And so on, for all your workers

Then, you will have to define the authentication key between all workers for ssh. On each worker, you have to execute the following commands.

Warning

Obviously, for the following command, you need to remember the password of your remotelabz-worker user on each worker. If not already done, you need to define it first using sudo passwd remotelabz-worker. All workers must have the same password.

sudo mkdir /home/remotelabz-worker
sudo mkdir /home/remotelabz-worker/.ssh
sudo chown remotelabz-worker:remotelabz-worker /home/remotelabz-worker/.ssh
sudo chmod 700 /home/remotelabz-worker/.ssh
sudo -u remotelabz-worker ssh-keygen -m PEM -t rsa -f /home/remotelabz-worker/.ssh/myremotelabzkey
sudo chown remotelabz-worker:remotelabz-worker /home/remotelabz-worker/.ssh -R
sudo chmod 600 /home/remotelabz-worker/.ssh/myremotelabzkey

Once done, for each RemoteLabz-Worker, you have to execute the following command to allow each worker to connect, using it's own key, to another one.

sudo -u remotelabz-worker ssh-copy-id -i /home/remotelabz-worker/.ssh/myremotelabzkey.pub remotelabz-worker@Worker_X-IP

To test the ssh key copy, you have to :

sudo -u remotelabz-worker ssh -i /home/remotelabz-worker/.ssh/myremotelabzkey remotelabz-worker@Worker_X-IP

The package php-ssh2 on the front is also required, you can install it using the command below :

sudo apt-get install php-ssh2

Last, update your sudo file :

sudo cp /opt/remotelabz-worker/config/sudo/remotelabz-worker  /etc/sudoers.d/remotelabz-worker

From 2.4.1.2 and above Version 2.4.1.3

First,you have to Install the ttyd package

sudo apt-get install -y screen build-essential cmake git libjson-c-dev libwebsockets-dev
cd ~
git clone https://github.com/tsl0922/ttyd.git
cd ttyd && mkdir build && cd build
cmake ..
make && sudo make install

Then, You need to install some default container

sudo lxc-create -t download -n Migration -- -d debian -r bullseye -a amd64 --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com;
sudo lxc-create -t download -n Debian -- -d debian -r bullseye -a amd64 --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com;
sudo lxc-create -t download -n Ubuntu20LTS -- -d ubuntu -r focal -a amd64 --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com;
sudo lxc-create -t download -n Alpine3.17 -- -d alpine -r 3.17 -a amd64 --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com;
sudo su;
echo "nameserver 1.1.1.3" > "/var/lib/lxc/Migration/rootfs/etc/resolv.conf";
echo "nameserver 1.1.1.3" > "/var/lib/lxc/Debian/rootfs/etc/resolv.conf";
echo "No default login, please use Sandbox to configure a new OS from this" >> "/var/lib/lxc/Debian/rootfs/etc/issue";
echo "No default login, please use Sandbox to configure a new OS from this" >> "/var/lib/lxc/Ubuntu20LTS/rootfs/etc/issue";
echo "No default login, please use Sandbox to configure a new OS from this" >> "/var/lib/lxc/Alpine3.15/rootfs/etc/issue";
echo "nameserver 1.1.1.3" > "/var/lib/lxc/Alpine3.15/rootfs/etc/resolv.conf";
exit;

Once done, you have to restart all the workers.

echo "%remotelabz-worker     ALL = (ALL) NOPASSWD: $(which ip), $(which iptables), $(which ovs-vsctl), $(which systemctl) start remotelabz*, $(which systemctl) stop remotelabz*, $(which systemctl) restart remotelabz*, $(which systemctl) status remotelabz*" | sudo tee /etc/sudoers.d/remotelabz-worker
echo "%www-data     ALL = (ALL) NOPASSWD: $(which ip), $(which iptables), $(which ovs-vsctl), $(which systemctl) start remotelabz*, $(which systemctl) stop remotelabz*, $(which systemctl) restart remotelabz*, $(which systemctl) status remotelabz*" | sudo tee -a /etc/sudoers.d/remotelabz-worker
echo "net.ipv6.route.max_size = 20000" | sudo tee -a /etc/sysctl.conf
