Linux References

New to Linux?  I’ve mashed together quite a few resources and added my own references to create two posters to have handy.   I recommend printing both on tabloid size paper and of course, hanging them up in your workstation πŸ˜‰ Linux File Structure:   Linux Command Reference:   Enjoy πŸ™‚

Centrify, allows for central user management from Active Directory. Works great on multiple platforms, but in this case, we’re using it for the Atlasssian linux boxes. This would actually be great as a part 1.. and if you haven’t started with all this yet, do this first then. Ready? – oK. First up- do a little work on your domain, to add specific groups and users. Preparation for the Linux

So, you thought you were done with the environment. Oh no… not so fast. We still have to setup some sort of SSL offload with nGinx or some other Azure function. We still want to make a “Atlasssian Systems Administrators” Active Directory group, add a few admins to it and setup Centrify on the linux boxes to allow those admins to login. We still have to harden the whole environment.

It’s never a party until you have Crowd, so lets go through this one as well. Crowd on Linux / Azure the atlassian directions. https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/CROWD/Crowd+Documentation Note – need to have the Java Development Kit installed on the server before running through the install We’ll get started on the crowd server “Crowd01” and get that Java installed.

Here we go racing into Jira. Of course I’m using Azure D1 server for testing – Openlogic 7.1 (centos based) lets start with a download jira from Atlassian. The link from Atlasssian points to the tar, lets get the .bin instead. Ssh to the new server (check the ssh port) and create a directory to deposit the install file.

I always like starting with Confluence. It gives me the most feeling of success when done. So, lets start. First thing, is to revisit the database server and create ourselves a confluence database. Commands are in bold. (if you haven’t given yourself root do this command instead: sudo -u Root su – postgres) # su – postgres Last login: Sun Jun 28 01:28:44 UTC 2015 on pts/0 -bash-4.2$ psql

In this series of blog posts I’ll be installing the Atlasssian Product Suite in Azure on Linux. I created a 30 day trial in Azure and I’m using OpenLogic 7.1 from the virtual machine gallery in Azure. I used D1 level servers for all the systems we’ll go through. I’m also doing my remote work from a Mac so terminal commands like SSH and SCP are straight forward and I
