System Requirements for Google Cloud Platform (GCP)

Privacera Manager requires a Virtual Machine (VM) with the CentOS operating system.

See System Requirements for Docker in GCP to learn more.

Install Docker and Docker Compose

1. Ensure the following ports are opened on the host: Ports of Privacera Services.

2. SSH to the VM as the administrator $VM_USER

3. Set the VM_USER to the OS user:

       VM_USER=privacera
   

       sudo yum install -y docker wget
       sudo sed -i 's/1024:4096/1024000:1024000/g' /etc/sysconfig/docker
       sudo cat /etc/sysconfig/docker
       sudo service docker start
       sudo systemctl enable docker
       sudo usermod -a -G docker ec2-user
       exit
   

4. Log into the VM as VM_USER, this forces the usermod action.

5. Install Docker-Compose:

    DOCKER_COMPOSE_VERSION="1.23.2"
    sudo curl -L https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/download/${DOCKER_COMPOSE_VERSION}/docker-compose-`uname -s`-`uname -m` -o /usr/local/bin/docker-compose
    sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/docker-compose

Possible error messages and actions

Error message: "usermod: group ‘docker’ does not exist"

Run the following command to check if “docker” is added to groups.

id

If you find ‘dockerroot’, instead of ‘docker’, edit or create `/etc/docker/daemon.json

sudo vi /etc/docker/daemon.json

{
"group": "dockerroot"
}

    sudo usermod -aG dockerroot ${USER_NAME}
    sudo service docker restart
    exit

Repository is unavailable or subscription manager is not found in the CentOS base

Open the config file.

    sudo vi /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/subscription-manager.conf

Disable the subscription manager.

    [main]
    enabled=0

SELinux Enabled

Verify the status of SELinux. If it is enforcing, you need to disable it.

    getenforce

    sudo vi /etc/selinux/config

To disable SELinux, set the following line.

    SELINUX=disabled

Reboot the system.

sudo reboot
