systemctl enable ntpd
systemctl start ntpd

BUILD PREREQUISITES (optional)

Setup CEPH

yum install epel-release -y
yum install ceph ceph-deploy -y

ssh-copy-id ceph1
#(repeat the command for each Ceph node, like ceph2, ceph3 and so on…)

mkdir /root/ceph_config
cd /root/ceph_config

#on mngt node or primary monitor node.
ceph-deploy new ceph1 ceph2 ceph3

#install ceph software on node.
ceph-deploy -v install ceph1 ceph2 ceph3

#initial monitors and gather the keys. This will place the keys into your ceph-deploy directory.
ceph-deploy mon create-initial

#Define the admin node (in this case is ceph1 node)
ceph-deploy admin ceph1 ceph2 ceph3

#Prepare the disks and add osd to the cluster
#ceph-deploy -v osd create [osd_node:[disk(data):[disk(journal)]]
for i in ceph1 ceph2 ceph3; 
do
ceph-deploy -v osd create $i:sdb --zap;
done

 

Testing

ceph status
ceph osd lspools
ceph health
ceph osd tree
#check client.
ceph osd crush dump --format=json-pretty 
#check conf and status
ceph osd dump --format=json-pretty 
ceph-deploy disk list osd0

#Prepare for testing
yum install -y https://ceph.com/rpm-testing/rhel7/x86_64/kmod-libceph-3.10-0.1.20140702gitdc9ac62.el7.x86_64.rpm

How to setup Exchange server 2013 on Windows 2012 R2

Standard

Scenario

Consist of 3 servers:

  1. AD server
  2. Mailbox role server
  3. CAS role server (Client Access Server)

*Use Windows server 2012R2 Std. installed on all server.

 

AD server (Active Directory Server)

Preparing and setting up AD

First, add role and feature “Active Directory Domain Services”

Promote AD by use command: dcpromo

Active Directory preparation can occur as part of the installation of the first Exchange Server 2013 server, you can also run the Active Directory preparation as a separate task beforehand on a 64-bit server running Windows Server 2008 or higher.

Because the Active Directory preparation requires the RSAT-ADDS tools I am running it on the domain controller in my test lab.

Alternatively, you can install the tools on a member server to run Exchange 2013 Active Directory preparation.

For Windows Server 2012, in PowerShell run:

%CODE1%

And prepare schema

%CODE2%

If you are installing Exchange Server in the AD forest for the first time run the following Exchange 2013 setup command to prepare Active Directory:

%CODE3%

Note: if your organization name contains spaces then it must be enclosed in quotes as shown above.

And Reboot  AD server!!

 

 

CAS role server

Prepare CAS role

Run the following command to install the required Windows components:

%CODE4%

*A restart is required after the roles and features have finished installing.

Next, install the following software. This is the same requirement as the Mailbox server role just without the Office Filter Pack.

Unified Communications Managed API 4.0 Runtime

http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=34992

*should be reboot once. (optional)

Setting up CAS role

Double click Setup.exe from Exchange2013.iso

And tick “Client Access Role” on checkbox then install it.

 

 

Mailbox role server

Prepare Mailbox role

Run the following command to install the required Windows components:

%CODE4%

*A restart is required after the roles and features have finished installing.

Next, install the following software in this order.

Unified Communications Managed API 4.0 Runtime

http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=34992

Microsoft Office 2010 Filter Pack 64 bit

http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=17062

Microsoft Office 2010 Filter Pack SP1 64 bit

http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=26604
