      NOTE: Ensure that the instances have been configured for using Custom hostnames.

  • Stack: Select the stack that you created.
    NOTE: If you want to deploy Kyvos Services (BI Server, Query Engine, and Web Portal) on the same Instance, in this case, select the None (node mapping Manually) option. 

  • Fetch resources: Click to view and modify any resources.
    The resources configured in the stack, such as EC2 instance(s) for BI Server, EC2 instance(s) for Query Engine, EC2 instance(s) for Web Portal, and so on are displayed. Click the Modify link corresponding to the Identified Resources to edit them. You can also select the Repository here.
    NOTE: If you want to use your own resources, select the None option, and provide the details in the displayed fields.
    Here, if you have the requisite permissions, your AWS resources will be displayed in the lists. Otherwise, you will have to manually provide the details.

  • Deploy BI Server, Query Engine, and Web Portal services on ip-<>.ec2 internal instance: This checkbox is displayed only when you select the None (node mapping Manually) option from the Stack list. Selecting this checkbox will deploy Kyvos services on the same instance. 
    NOTE: By default, the option to deploy EC2 instance(s) for BI Server, EC2 instance(s) for Query Engine, and EC2 instance(s) for Web Portal will be disabled. 

Secrets Manager

Displays the name of the Secrets Manager that will be used for storing passwords.

NOTE: This field is displayed if you selected the Deploy with Enhanced Security option at the time of creating resources.

Compute Cluster

Kubernetes Details

Enter the following Kubernetes details:

  • Kubernetes Cluster Name: Select the Kubernetes cluster name from the list.
    If the list is not populated, you need to enter the Kubernetes cluster name manually, and then click Fetch Details. The Kubernetes cluster details will be fetched.

  • Node Pool Name: Select the Node Pool name from the list.

  • K8S Addon Auth Role Name: The K8S Addon Auth Role Name is displayed by default.

If the node pool name list is not populated, you need to enter the Node Pool Name manually, and then click Validate Kubernetes Cluster Details to validate Kubernetes cluster details.

Enable Compute Server Scaling

Select this checkbox to enable maximum or minimum compute server for scaling. When you select this checkbox, the following options will be displayed.

  • Minimum Compute Server Count: Select the minimum compute Server count that will be started initially.

  • Maximum Compute Server Count: Select the maximum compute Server count up to which you want to scale.

NOTE: If you do not select this checkbox, the Compute Server Count field is displayed. Enter the compute server count that you want to set for minimum or maximum compute server scaling.

Important

  • After the wizard-based deployment with Kyvos Native that includes Shared Query Engines, you must execute the vi /proc/sys/vm/max_map_count command on each Kyvos node (BI Server, Query Engine, Kyvos Manager).

    • Update the value to 524288 in /proc/sys/vm/max_map_count file on each Kyvos node (BI Server, Query Engine, Kyvos Manager).

  • If you have installed using your custom stack or if you have used your AWS account resources in the wizard above, you can create and configure the Lamda functions to allow scheduling on the BI Server.
