Checklist[edit]

Set mysql to listen on public interface (transcoder)[edit]

on MCPServer host, edit /etc/mysql/my.cnf

sudo aptitude install archivematica-mcp-client

Configure fstab to automatically mount the remote NFS share directory on client machines[edit]

edit /etc/fstab 

sudo nano /etc/fstab

assuming the IP of your NFS server is the same as your MCP-Server (ie 192.168.0.100) add the following 

192.168.0.100:/var/archivematica/sharedDirectory /var/archivematica/sharedDirectory nfs defaults 0 0

Sync Time with OpenNTPd[edit]

Un-comment the listen line in /etc/openntpd/ntpd.conf on your master machine 

sudo mousepad /etc/openntpd/ntpd.conf

listen on *

sudo /etc/init.d/openntpd restart

on client machines edit /etc/openntpd/ntpd.conf and add your newly created time server and comment out other servers 

sudo mousepad /etc/openntpd/ntpd.conf

server myMasterServerIP
#server otherServerAdress
#server otherServerAdress
#server otherServerAdress


Supported Modules[edit]

Comment out the upload and storeAIP tasks, from the supported tasks on the client machine, by prepending the line with a '#'. 

sudo mousepad /etc/archivematica/MCPClient/archivematicaClientModules

#upload-qubit_v0.0="upload-qubit "
#storeAIP_v0.0="%clientScriptsDirectory%storeAIP.sh "
...

Change the IP/Hostname[edit]

Change the IP/Hostname the client machine is connecting to. 

sudo mousepad /etc/archivematica/MCPClient/clientConfig.conf

MCPArchivematicaServer="server.local"
MCPArchivematicaServerPort="8002"

In the same file, /etc/archivematica/MCPClient/clientConfig.conf, you can set the max number of threads this client will run. 

maxThreads="2"

Disable the MCP Server[edit]

Each client node needs to have the MCP server disabled from starting at startup.


login to each node, remove /etc/init/archivematica-mcp-server.conf and reboot. 

sudo stop archivematica-mcp-server
sudo rm /etc/init/archivematica-mcp-server.conf

Reboot[edit]

sudo stop openoffice-service; sudo start openoffice-service
sudo stop archivematica-mcp-client; sudo start archivematica-mcp-client

The client should connect on startup.

Note: to see the dashboard, or ica-atom, you'll need to visit the server's ip address, not localhost.
