      # cat /etc/redhat-release
 CentOS release 6.7 (Final)

Steps to be followed:

  • Install the Ranger Admin component on the hosts you wish to use – hn1.hwxblr.com. For information about installing Ranger over Ambari, see Installing Ranger Over Ambari 2.0 .
  • Configure a load balancer to balance the loads among the various Ranger Admin instances and take note of the load balancer URL.

Step 1: Before Installing HAProxy on the server we need to install epel repository on our system depending on our operating system version using following command.

 CentOS/RHEL 5 , 32 bit:
 # rpm -Uvh 
 http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/5/i386/epel-release-5-4.noarch.rpm
 CentOS/RHEL 5 , 64 bit:
 # rpm -Uvh 
 http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/5/x86_64/epel-release-5-4.noarch.rpm
 CentOS/RHEL 6 , 32 bit:
 # rpm -Uvh 
 http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/i386/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm
 CentOS/RHEL 6 , 64 bit:
 # rpm -Uvh 
 http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/x86_64/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm

Step 2: Install HAProxy using Yum.

[root@hn3 ~]# yum install haproxy

Step 3: Now we will configure HAProxy.

[root@hn3 ~]# vi /etc/haproxy/haproxy.cfg

Please refer for brief documentation before editing this file : https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/7/html/Load_Balancer_Administ...

[root@hn3 ~]# cat haproxy.cfg

to have these messages end up in /var/log/haproxy.log you will
   #
need to:
   #
   #
1) configure syslog to accept network log events.  This is done
#  by adding the '-r' option to
the SYSLOGD_OPTIONS in
#  /etc/sysconfig/syslog
   #
   #
2) configure local2 events to go to the /var/log/haproxy.log
#  file. A line like the
following can be added to
#  /etc/sysconfig/syslog
   #
#  local2.*  /var/log/haproxy.log
   #

Step 5: Start the HAProxy service

[root@hn3 ~]# service haproxy start

Step 6: To make the HAProxy service persist through reboots

[root@hn3 ~]# chkconfig haproxy on
  • Update the Policy Manager external URL in all Ranger Admin clients (Ranger UserSync and Ranger plug-ins) to point to the load balancer URL.

Ambari >> Ranger >> Configs >>Ranger Settings >> External URL (policymgr_external_url ) : http://hn3.hwxblr.com:6080

  • Enable Ranger Admin HA Wizard >> On Ambari >> Ranger >> Service Actions >> Enable Ranger HA
  • URL to load balancer: http://10.0.1.23:6080
