# Apache Zookeeper AMI
AMI that should be used to create virtual machines with Apache Zookeeper
installed.
## Synopsis
This script will create an AMI with Apache Zookeeper installed and with all of
the required initialization scripts.
The AMI resulting from this script should be the one used to instantiate a
Zookeeper server (standalone or cluster).
## Getting Started
There are a couple of things needed for the script to work.
### Prerequisites
Packer and AWS Command Line Interface tools need to be installed on your local
computer.
To build a base image you have to know the id of the latest Debian AMI files
for the region where you wish to build the AMI.
#### Packer
Packer installation instructions can be found
[here](https://www.packer.io/docs/installation.html).
#### AWS Command Line Interface
AWS Command Line Interface installation instructions can be found [here](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/installing.html)
#### Debian AMI's
This AMI will be based on an official Debian AMI. The latest version of that
AMI will be used.
A list of all the Debian AMI id's can be found at the Debian official page:
[Debian official Amazon EC2 Images](https://wiki.debian.org/Cloud/AmazonEC2Image/)
### Usage
In order to create the AMI using this packer template you need to provide a
few options.
```
Usage:
packer build \
-var 'aws_access_key=AWS_ACCESS_KEY' \
-var 'aws_secret_key=' \
-var 'aws_region=' \
-var 'zookeeper_version=' \
[-var 'option=value'] \
zookeeper.json
```
#### Script Options
- `aws_access_key` - *[required]* The AWS access key.
- `aws_ami_name` - The AMI name (default value: "zookeeper").
- `aws_ami_name_prefix` - Prefix for the AMI name (default value: "").
- `aws_instance_type` - The instance type to use for the build (default value: "t2.micro").
- `aws_region` - *[required]* The regions were the build will be performed.
- `aws_secret_key` - *[required]* The AWS secret key.
- `java_build_number` - Java build number (default value: "11").
- `java_major_version` - Java major version (default value: "8").
- `java_token` - Java link token (default version: "d54c1d3a095b4ff2b6607d096fa80163").
- `java_update_version` - Java update version (default value: "131").
- `system_locale` - Locale for the system (default value: "en_US").
- `zookeeper_version` - *[required]* Zookeeper version.
### Instantiate a Cluster
In order to end up with a functional Zookeeper Cluster some configurations have
to be performed after instantiating the servers.
To help perform those configurations a small script is included on the AWS
image. The script is called **zookeeper_config**.
#### Configuration Script
The script can and should be used to set some of the Zookeeper options as well
as setting the Zookeeper service to start at boot.
```
Usage: zookeeper_config [options]
```
##### Options
* `-D` - Disables the Zookeeper service from start at boot time.
* `-E` - Enables the Zookeeper service to start at boot time.
* `-i ` - Sets the Zookeeper broker ID (default value is '1').
* `-m ` - Sets Zookeeper maximum heap size. Values should be provided following the same Java heap nomenclature.
* `-n ` - The ID and Address of a cluster node (e.g.: '1:127.0.0.1'). Should be used to set all the Zookeeper nodes. Several Zookeeper nodes can be set by either using extra `-n` options or if separated with a comma on the same `-n` option.
* `-S` - Starts the Zookeeper service after performing the required configurations (if any given).
* `-W ` - Waits the specified amount of seconds before starting the Zookeeper service (default value is '0').
#### Configuring a Zookeeper Node
To prepare an instance to act as a Zookeeper node the following steps need to
be performed.
Run the configuration tool (*zookeeper_config*) to configure the instance.
```
zookeeper_config -E -S
```
After this steps a Zookeeper node (for a standalone setup) should be running
and configured to start on server boot.
For a cluster with more than one Zookeeper node other options have to be
configured on each instance using the same configuration tool
(*zookeeper_config*).
```
zookeeper_config -E -i 1 -n 1:zookeeper01.mydomain.tld -n 2:zookeeper02.mydomain.tld,3:zookeeper03.mydomain.tld -S
```
After this steps, the first node of the Zookeeper cluster (for a three node
cluster) should be running and configured to start on server boot.
More options can be used on the instance configuration, see the
[Configuration Script](#configuration-script) section for more details
## Services
This AMI will have the SSH service running as well as the Zookeeper services.
The following ports will have to be configured on Security Groups.
| Service | Port | Protocol |
|--------------|:---------:|:--------:|
| SSH | 22 | TCP |
| Zookeeper | 2181 | TCP |
| Zookeeper | 2888:3888 | TCP |
| JMX | 7199 | TCP |
