*NIX Hosts

When executed, the MettleCI Workbench RPM package installer performs the following actions:

  • Creates a MettleCI service user account if it doesn’t already exist. By default, this user is called mciworkb and is a member of the group DataStage is configured to use (commonlydstage, the group that the owning ID dsadminhas as primary group). An alternative MettleCI user and group can be specified. but the MettleCI user must be in the DataStage group, whatever it is called.

  • Creates the MettleCI home directory (default /opt/dm/mci), owned by the MettleCI service user, with the following contents:

    $> ls -al /opt/dm/mci/ total 52292 -r-xr----- 1 root dstage 1766 Oct 7 11:11 dm-mettleci-workbench -rwxrwxr-x 1 mciworkb dstage 53531885 Oct 7 11:11 mettle-ui-1.0-449.jar drwxrwxr-x 2 mciworkb dstage 6 Oct 7 11:11 reports drwxrwxr-x 2 mciworkb dstage 6 Oct 7 11:11 specs -rwx------ 1 mciworkb dstage 1675 Oct 7 11:11 workbench_rsa -rwxr-xr-x 1 mciworkb dstage 414 Oct 7 11:11 workbench_rsa.pub
  • Copies the workbench jar file (mettle-ui-x.x-x.jar) to the MettleCI home

  • Creates an SSH key pair for Git integration as workbench_rsa.pub (public key) and workbench_rsa (private) in the MettleCI home

  • Changes permissions on the private Git SSH key to 700

  • Creates a SysVinit service for the workbench

Running the MettleCI Workbench setup wizard has the following effect:

  • Creates a config.yml file in the MettleCI Home directory

  • When Jira issue management is selected, creates Jira App Link Private Key as jira_privatekey.pcks8 in the MettleCI home
