Amazon Web Services (AWS) Databricks

Before installing Unravel in AWS Databricks, check and ensure that the installation requirements are completed and follow the below instructions to install and configure Unravel:

1. Create an EC2 instance and connect Databricks to Unravel VM

Create an EC2 instance

On your AWS Console, go to the EC2 dashboard and click Launch Instance.

Select the following options based on Unravel's instance requirements:

Base OS
Instance type and size
Ports
Networking
The EC2 instance must be in the same region as the target clusters, which Unravel EC2 node will be monitoring.

Security groups or policies

Create a security group that allows port 3000 and port 4043 from cluster nodes' IP address, and put the security group member used on the cluster in this rule.

Sample inbound rule

Type	Protocol	Port range	Source
All traffic	All	All	Security group ID of this group or subnet IP block. For example, 10.10.0.0/16
SSH	TCP	22	0.0.0.0/0 or trusted public IP for SSH access
Custom TCP Rule	TCP	443	Security group ID used on the cluster or subnet IP block (if the IP block belongs to a different VPC). Required for VPC peering connection
Custom TCP Rule	TCP	3000	Security group ID used on the cluster or subnet IP block (if the IP block belongs to a different VPC). Required for VPC peering connection.
Custom TCP Rule	TCP	4043	Security group ID used on the cluster or subnet IP block (if the IP block belongs to a different VPC). Required for VPC peering connection.
Custom TCP Rule	TCP	4443	Security group ID used on the cluster or subnet IP block (if the IP block belongs to a different VPC). Required for VPC peering connection.

2. Download Unravel

3. Deploy Unravel

Unravel binaries are available as a TAR file or RPM package. You can deploy the Unravel binaries in any directory on the server. However, the user who installs Unravel must have the write permissions to the directory where the Unravel binaries are deployed.

After you extract the contents of the TAR file or RPM package, unravel directory is created within the installation directory (<unravel_installation_directory>) and Unravel will be available in <Unravel_installation_directory>/unravel. The directory layout will be unravel/versions/<Directories and files>.

Option 1: Deploy Unravel from a TAR file

The following steps to deploy Unravel from a TAR file should be performed by a user, who will run Unravel.

Create an Installation directory.
```
mkdir /path/to/installation/directory
```
For example: mkdir /opt/
Extract Unravel tar file to the installation directory, which you have created in the first step. After you extract the contents of the TAR file, unravel directory is created within the installation directory.
```
tar zxf unravel-<version>tar.gz -C </path/to/installation/directory>
```
For example: tar zxf unravel-4.7.0.0.tar.gz -C /opt
The unravel directory will be available within /opt.
Grant ownership of the directory to a user who will run Unravel.
```
chown -R username:groupname </path/to/installation/directory>
```
For example: chown -R hadoop:hadoop /opt/unravel/

Option 2: Deploy Unravel from an RPM package

Important

The following steps to deploy Unravel from an RPM package should be performed by a root user. After the RPM package is deployed, the remaining installation procedures should be performed by unravel user.

Create an installation directory.
```
mkdir /usr/local/unravel
```
Run the following command:
```
rpm -i unravel-<version>.rpm
```
For example: rpm -i unravel-4.7.0.0.rpm
The unravel directory will be available in /usr/local.
If you want to provide a different location, use the --prefix command.
For example:
mkdir /opt/unravel
rpm -i unravel-4.7.0.0.rpm --prefix /opt
The unravel directory will be available in /opt.
Grant ownership of the directory to a user who will run Unravel. This user executes all the processes involved in Unravel installation.
```
chown -R username:groupname /usr/local/unravel
```
For example: chown -R hadoop:hadoop /usr/local/unravel
Continue with the installation procedures as unravel user.

4. Install Unravel

You can install Unravel either with Interactive Precheck or manually without Interactive Precheck.

Note

Unravel recommends installation with Interactive Precheck.

Install Unravel with Interactive Precheck

To install Unravel with Interactive precheck, you must run the Interactive Precheck utility to generate a bootstrap configuration file for installation.

The Interactive Precheck utility validates the required configurations before installing Unravel. When you run the Interactive Precheck utility, various checks are prompted to gather configuration information. The responses you provide for these checks generate a bootstrap configuration file. This file, which contains the configuration information, is then used to install Unravel.

Do the following to install and configure Unravel with Interactive Precheck.

After you download and deploy the Unravel, run the precheck.sh script from unravel/versions/X.Y.Z/healthcheck/.
For example:
/opt/unravel/versions/X.Y.Z/healthcheck/precheck.sh

Enter the necessary details when you are prompted for the following configuration information:

This check allows you to configure database-related information and an external database for Unravel.

You can also get the status and information for a specific service. Run the manager report command as follows:
```
<unravel_installation_directory>/unravel/manager report <service> 
```
For example: /opt/unravel/manager report auto_action

5. Configure Unravel Log Receiver

Note

The LR endpoint configuration will only be set in the unravel.yaml file. It will not be reflected in unravel.properties.

Stop Unravel.

<unravel_installation_directory>/unravel/manager stop

Review and update Unravel Log Receiver (LR) endpoint. This is default set to local FQDN, only visible to workspaces within the same network. If this is not the case, run the following to set the LR endpoint and press ENTER:
```
<unravel_installation_directory>/unravel/manager config databricks set-lr-endpoint <hostname> <port>
```
For example: /opt/unravel/manager config databricks set-lr-endpoint <hostname><port>
Note
If you do not enter the port number for <port>, then the default port 4043 is considered for cases where SSL is not enabled and port 4443 in cases where SSL is enabled.
Note
The LR endpoint configuration will only be set in the unravel.yaml file. It will not be reflected in unravel.properties.

Apply the changes.

    <unravel_installation_directory>/unravel/manager refresh databricks
    <unravel_installation_directory>/unravel/manager config apply then start

Start all the services.

<unravel_installation_directory>/unravel/manager start

6. Connect Databricks cluster to Unravel

Run the following steps to connect the Databricks cluster to Unravel.

Click Add Workspace and enter the following details.

Field	Description
Workspace Id	Databricks workspace ID, which can be found in the Databricks URL. The random numbers shown after o= in the Databricks URL become the workspace ID. For example, in this URL:https://<databricks-instance>/?o=987654321123456, the Databricks workspace ID is the random number after o=, which is 987654321123456.
Workspace Name	Databricks workspace name. A human-readable name for the workspace. For example, `ACME-Workspace`
Instance (Region) URL	Regional URL where the Databricks workspace is deployed. Specify the complete URL. Expected format is protocol://dns or ip(:port). Ensure that the URL does not end with a slash. For example, a valid input is: https://eastus.azuredatabricks.net. An invalid input is: https://eastus.azuredatabricks.net/.
Tier	Select a subscription option: Standard or Premium. For Databricks Azure, you can get the pricing information from the Azure portal. For Databricks AWS you can get detailed information about pricing tiers from Databricks AWS pricing.
Token	Use the personal access token to secure authentication to the Databricks REST APIs instead of passwords. You can generate the token from the workspace URL (Go to User Settings > Developer > Access tokens > Manage > Generate New Token) See Authentication using Databricks personal access tokens to create personal access tokens. Note Users with admin or non-admin roles can create personal access tokens. For non-admin tokens, you must fulfill the requirements as mentioned here.

Note

After you click Add, it takes around 2-3 minutes to register the Databricks Workspace with Unravel.

Add Unravel configuration to Databricks clusters using any of the following options:
1. Global init script
  Global init script applies the Unravel configurations to all clusters in a workspace.
  Global init is deployed automatically on the Workspace and needs to be enabled manually from the location shown in the following image:
  Go to your workspace, and from the dropdown located in the upper right corner, select Admin Settings.
  From Settings, click Compute and then click Manage next to Global init scripts. The Global init scripts page is shown.
  Use the toggle key under the Enabled column to enable the Global init scripts.
  You can also find the Global initialization script in your workspace at this path: /Workspace/Unravel/install-unravel.sh
  If it is not deployed automatically, you can do one of the following
  Use this script as a Cluster init script.
  Add Unravel configuration to Databricks clusters using the Global init script by referring to these instructions.
  Note
  Cluster logging should be enabled at the cluster level. See Logging in Cluster init script for instructions.
  Important
  When you upgrade from an Unravel version below v4.7.5.0, you must disable or remove all the previously set up global init scripts (unravel_cluster_init, unravel_spark_init).
2. Cluster init script
  Cluster init script applies the Unravel configurations at the cluster level. To setup cluster init scripts from the cluster UI, do the following:
  1. Go to Unravel UI, click Manage > Workspaces , and select the Workspace URL.
  2. Log in to the Workspace.
  3. Access the required cluster you want to monitor through Unravel.
  4. Set the path to /Unravel/install-unravel.sh as shown in this image.
    Note
    Prior to configuring the new cluster-level init script, ensure you remove any existing cluster-level init script configurations that are pointing to the DBFS location. For cluster-level init script setup, make sure to configure it using the workspace file path: /unravel/install-unravel.sh.
    Note
    To add Unravel configurations to job clusters via API, refer to How to set up cluster init scripts via cluster API.
3. Managing tokens for workspace access
  If you have a premium workspace and the workspace access control is enabled, you must provide the appropriate tokens when adding a workspace. The type of token required depends on whether the workspace is an Admin workspace or a read-only (RO) workspace.
  - Admin workspaces
    Admin access token
    Token of a user who has Can Manage permission on Workspace
  - Standard workspaces
    Navigate to Workspace Settings > Access Tokens > Manage Tokens and generate a Read-Only Access Token.
    In the case of workspaces with only the Can Read permission token, the Global Init and Cluster Init scripts will not be automatically added to the locations. You must add them manually from Unravel/install-unravel.sh.
4. Setting the backward compatibility for init scripts
  To maintain the backward compatibility of your init scripts, run the following command:
```
<Installation_directory>/unravel/manager config databricks copy-to-dbfs --id <workspace-id> --unsafe-copy-init-to-dbfs
```
  This command copies the init scripts to the DBFS (Databricks File System) location, specifically the dbin folder. By default, during workspace addition, updates, or Unravel upgrades, the dbin folder can be removed. However, running this command prevents its removal and guarantees that it is also transferred to the DBFS.
  For example:
  /opt/unravel/manager config databricks copy-to-dbfs --id 6679977360960347 --unsafe-copy-init-to-dbfs
  Alternatively, you can use the --all option in the command instead of specifying --id for a single workspace. This streamlined approach ensures that the same step is applied to all currently registered or added workspaces in Unravel.
  For example:
  /opt/unravel/manager config databricks copy-to-dbfs
5. Set the public hostname/IP for your Unravel server
  By default, unravel uses the server name and unravel's UI ports and TLS configuration when generating URLs, this allows you to specify a different name, port or generating https URLs without enabling TLS on the unravel side. To set the public hostname/IP for your Unraver server, run the following manager command:
  Note
  This is an optional step and is only needed if the default setup doesn't work.
```
manager config set public_hostname {host} {port} {--tls} {--no-tls}
```
  Here:
  {host}: The public hostname or IP address.
  {port}: The port number on which the server will accept connections.
  {--tls}: Use this if you want TLS to be terminated in front of the Unravel server without enabling TLS on the Unravel side.
  {--no-tls}: Use this if you do not want TLS termination.
  For example:
```
manager config set public_hostname unravel.example.com 1234 --tls
```
  With this, unravel will generate URL like: https://unravel.example.com:1234.
Set additional configurations if required.Configurations

Configure the Workspace for Data page.

Ensure that at least one of the workspaces is populated before you configure a workspace for the Data page.

To configure the Databricks for Data page, do the following:

Stop Unravel

<Unravel installation directory>/unravel/manager stop

Set the following property. Replace the example values in this example with your specific configuration details. Refer here for more details about this property.

com.unraveldata.hive.metastore.list=ktkwspace

javax.jdo.option.ktkwspace.ConnectionPassword=imf1IV9GntqiclN5kahcJJSHI_5aM9Y4lV4eQipb

Apply the changes and restart Unravel services.

<Unravel installation directory>/unravel/manager config apply --restart

Start Unravel

<Unravel installation directory>/unravel/manager start

Optionally, you can run healthcheck, at this point, to verify that all the configurations and services are running successfully.
```
<unravel_installation_directory>/unravel/manager healthcheck
```
Healthcheck is run automatically on an hourly basis in the backend. You can set the healthcheck intervals and email alerts to receive the healthcheck reports.

Tip

The workspace setup can be done anytime and does not impact the running clusters or jobs.

Set the following permissions to use a non-admin token with Unravel:

In Admin Settings, the Token Usage must have CAN USE permission either as a user or as a group or All Users, or SP for the non-admin user; otherwise, an error is shown.
If in the Admin Settings, the Workspace Access Control is enabled, create the Unravel folder at the workspace root file system, and ensure that the CAN MANAGE permission is granted on the Unravel folder for the non-admin user/group/SP used by Unravel.
If, in the Admin Settings, Workspace Visibility Control is enabled, Unravel User/group/SP needs to have Workspace access and Databricks SQL access permission
Create init script manually; see Connect Databricks cluster to Unravel for setting up Unravel sensor via Global init script or Cluster init script.
If in the Admin Settings, the Cluster Visibility Control is enabled, you must grant the Unravel token the CAN ATTACH permission to all the clusters (per cluster) manually.
If in the Admin Settings, the Job Visibility Control is enabled, you must grant Unravel token with the CAN ATTACH permission to all the jobs (per job) manually.

The following API endpoint permissions should be also granted:
