How to configure WSL-related services after upgrading Landscape beta

This guide is only for customers who have upgraded to a new Landscape beta version to use WSL-related services.

This guide describes how to configure an upgraded Landscape beta version to enable WSL-related services. This applies to users upgrading from an existing beta version or stable version. If this is your first time installing Landscape Beta, you don’t need to perform these steps.

Contents:

Update the service.conf file

Open the service.conf file located in the /etc/landscape directory and add the following lines:

[broker]

hostagent_virtual_host = landscape-hostagent
hostagent_task_queue = landscape-server-hostagent-task-queue

[grpc]

[hostagent-message-consumer]
threads = 1
stores = main account-1

Add a virtual host to RabbitMQ

Add a new virtual host to RabbitMQ using the following commands:

sudo rabbitmqctl add_vhost landscape-hostagent
sudo rabbitmqctl set_permissions -p landscape-hostagent landscape ".*" ".*" ".*"

The ".*" characters in the set_permissions command are regular expressions that match any character. They grant all permissions (configure, write, read) on all resources (exchanges, queues, bindings, etc.) to the landscape user for the landscape-hostagent virtual host.

Restart the services

Restart the Landscape services:

sudo service landscape-hostagent-messenger restart
sudo service landscape-hostagent-consumer restart

Done! Now you’re ready to use WSL with Landscape. If you want instructions on setting up your environment, see how to set up an environment to use WSL with Landscape.
