SINGLE-MACHINE INSTALLATION

This is a minimal installation and requires just one computer running GNU/Linux Ubuntu 10.04. On this computer will be installed the Notre-DAM server, one MediaDART node and the resource storage.

It is possible at any time to upgrade to a multi-node installation for deploying more processing power.

System requirements

You need one computer running GNU/Linux Ubuntu 10.4 (lucid).

Step 1: Install the Notre-DAM server

Add the following lines to your /etc/apt/sources.list file:

deb http://www.mediadart.org/stage-repository/lucid/ binary-i386/

deb http://www.mediadart.org/stage-repository/lucid/ binary-amd64/

Then, open a terminal window and enter the following commands:

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install notredam

This commands will install the application under /opt/notredam.

It will also install one (local) MediaDART node.

By default, Notre-DAM is configured to work with a local node. So no configuration is required for a single-machine installation.

Step 2: Start MediaDART node

To start the MediaDART node type:

export PYTHONPATH=/opt/mediadart/

python /opt/mediadart/mediadart/launch.py

Step 3: Start the Notre-DAM server

Open a terminal window and enter the following commands:

cd /opt/notredam

python notredam.py --runserver --address=0.0.0.0:10000 run

More information on starting the server is available with:

python notredam.py --help

Step 4: Start using Notre-DAM

At this point you can start using Notre-DAM from a browser (at the url http://ip_address:10000), as described in the Quick Guide page (the browser will automatically ask you to install any missing plug-ins).
