Install Data Storage Optimizer

Perform the following steps to install Data Storage Optimizer into Data Catalog:

1. Open a terminal window on your dedicated Data Catalog deployment server.
2. On the Data Catalog server, navigate to the pentaho/pdc-docker-deployment directory using the following command:

   cd pentaho/pdc-docker-deployment

3. Start all the Dockers using the following command:

   sh pdc.sh up

4. Copy and paste the following commands to generate the required tokens and add them to the environment files:

   echo RULES_PDC_AUTH_TOKEN=\"$(./pdc.sh get-jwt-token RULES_ENGINE)\" >> ./conf/.env
    echo PDSO_PDC_AUTH_TOKEN=\"$(./pdc.sh get-jwt-token PDSO)\" >> ./conf/.env
    echo PDSO_VFS_EXTERNAL_HOST_IP=\"$(hostname -I | awk '{print $1}')\"  >> ./conf/.env
    echo PDC_FE_PDSO_URL=/pdso/ >> ./conf/.env
    echo COMPOSE_PROFILES=mongodb,collab,pdso >> ./conf/.env
    

   CautionModifying these settings can have system-wide implications, and incorrect changes may negatively impact the functionality of the other platforms. It is a best practice to collaborate with your Pentaho Data Catalog partner to ensure that any modifications align with your intended objectives.
5. Re-run the installation script:

   ./pdc.sh up

   The installation script uses the packaged Docker images for the Data Storage Optimizer release to create and run Docker containers on your dedicated server. The installation finishes when each Docker container has been successfully started.

Result: Data Storage Optimizer is successfully installed.
