First manual deployment¶

This guide explains how to quickly deploy Tarantool Data Grid (TDG) manually for the first time. As a result, you will get a single node TDG cluster deployed locally.

Note

For TDG deployment, you need Linux OS (CentOS 7/RHEL 7 are preferable). Otherwise, you’ll need to set up a virtual machine with Linux OS first.

Getting a TGZ file for deployment¶

To deploy Tarantool Data Grid, you need an RPM (.rpm), TGZ (tar.gz), or Docker image (docker-image.tar.gz) file. For the first deployment, a TGZ file will do just fine. It is easier to deploy and does not require root access.

Download a TGZ file of the latest version at the customer zone of tarantool.io. Make sure your browser did not unarchive the downloaded file: the file extension should be tar.gz.

If you do not have access to the customer zone, you can get one by applying this form or writing to sales@tarantool.io.

Deployment¶

Unpack tar.gz file:

$ tar xzf tdg-<VERSION>.tar.gz # change <VERSION> for the TDG version that you've downloaded

Run a single node TDG cluster inside the unpacked tar.gz file:
```
$ ./tarantool ./init.lua --bootstrap true
```
If you already have Tarantool installed, make sure that now, while deploying TDG, you use the Tarantool version that is packed in the just downloaded tar.gz archive.
Go to http://127.0.0.1:8080/ to check the deployed TDG:

By running tarantool ./init.lua --bootstrap true, you’ve deployed a configured instance with assigned roles. If you want to try and assign roles by yourself, run:
```
$ tarantool ./init.lua
```
As a result, you’ll get an unconfigured TDG instance:

In case you want to start over and deploy TDG from scratch, don’t forget to delete the configuration, xlog, and snap files that TDG created during the first deployment:
```
$ rm -rf ./dev/output
```
