16 This method sets up a new Arvados cluster using a single host/VM. It is the easiest way to get a new production cluster up and running.
18 A single-node installation supports all Arvados functionality at small scale. Substantial workloads will require additional nodes and configuration steps.
23 * a server host running Debian 10 (buster).
24 * a unique 5-character ID like @x9999@ for your cluster (first character should be @[a-w]@ for a long-lived / production cluster; all characters are @[a-z0-9]@).
25 * a DNS name like @x9999.example.com@ that resolves to your server host (or a load balancer / proxy that passes HTTP and HTTPS requests through to your server host).
26 * a Google account (use it in place of <code>example@gmail.com.example</code> in the instructions below).
28 h2. Initialize the cluster
31 # echo > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/arvados.list "deb http://apt.arvados.org/buster buster main"
33 # apt-get install arvados-server-easy
34 # arvados-server init -type production -cluster-id x9999 -controller-address x9999.example.com -admin-email example@gmail.com.example
37 When the "init" command is finished, navigate to the link shown in the terminal (e.g., @https://x9999.example.com/?api_token=zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz@). This will log you in to your admin account.
41 Follow the instructions to "set up Google login":{{site.baseurl}}/install/setup-login.html or another authentication option.
43 After updating your configuration file (@/etc/arvados/config.yml@), restart the server to make your changes take effect:
46 # systemctl restart arvados-server
