Sitecore XP1 Scaled (On-Premise) Installation Notes

This is a guide or a reference for installing Sitecore XP1 v9.0 in a fully scaled on-premise environment.

Note: This documentation is still a work-in-progress, do expect constant updates. For questions or need elaboration please send an email to rasenieroAtGmailDotCom.

Getting Started

These instructions will serve as a guide or a reference for deploying Sitecore XP1 v9.0 in a fully scaled on-premise environment.

In the following scenario below, every core roles and XP service roles is performed by a dedicated server. This is a pre-built topology and is also known as XP1 Scaled. However, roles can be combine into a single instance, e.g. all xConnect and xDB roles (i.e. Collection, Collection Search, Marketing Automation, Marketing Automation Reporting, and ReferenceData) can be installed in a single instance.

We will be referencing the diagram below in our instructions to come.

Prerequisites

Depending on the role or instance, each has it's own respective prerequisites, but the general prerequisites are enumerated below.

• Microsoft Windows Server 2016
• Microsoft SQL Server 2016 SP1 with SQL Management Studio 2017 for Database server
• IIS 10 for Web server
• .NET Framework 4.6.2 or later
• PowerShell 5.1 or later
• Sitecore Installation Framework (SIF) PowerShell module
• Any Web Browsers in this list: Microsoft Internet Explorer 11, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge
• Domain names for each roles i.e. search.mysite.com, searchcollection.mysite.com, reporting.mysite.com, processing.mysite.com

For the Hardware requirements, please refer to the Sitecore 9.0 Installation Guide.

For each role or instance in the diagram, find their respective prerequesites below.

Solr Instance

• Solr 6.6.2
• Chocolatey 0.10.11
• Java/JRE 1.8 (installed using Chocolatey)
• NSSM 2.24 (installed using Chocolatey)
• OpenSSL.Light 1.1.0 (installed using Chocolatey)

To setup Solr instance see section Installation->Solr Instance

All Other Instances

This includes XConnect, xDB Services, Content Management, Content Delivery, Processing and Reporting instances.

• Refer to the general prerequisites for applicable prerequisites
• Add IIS role with IIS Management Console feature
• Add .Net Extensibility 4.6 feature, under Web Server (IIS)->Web Server->Application Development

PS C:\>Install-WindowsFeatures Web-Asp-Net45

PS C:\> Install-Module -name Sqlps

Installation

The general approach is to start with setting up Solr instance then followed by XConnect (i.e. Collection, CollectionSearch roles), xDB Services (i.e. ReferenceData, MarketingAutomationReporting, MarketingAutomation roles), Reporting, Processing, Content Management, and Content Delivery instances.

General Installation

This applies to the follwing instances or roles XConnect, xDB Services, Content Management, Content Delivery, Processing and Reporting instances.

1. Clone this repository into an Installation Directory.

Note: In this scenario is c:\xp, you can also use other location i.e. d:\xp but need to update the scripts.

2. Download and extract Sitecore 9.0.1 rev. 171219 (WDP XP1 packages).zip to the Installation Directory.

Note: All WDP Packages (*.zip files) should be directly under the Installation Directory.

3. Save you Sitecore license file directly under the Installation Directory as license.xml.
4. Set NETWORK SERVICE with Modify permission to c:\inetpub\wwwroot folder
5. Set IIS_IUSRS or IUSR or NETWORK SERVICE with Modify permission to %WINDIR%\Temp\ folder
6. Set IIS_IUSRS or IUSR or NETWORK SERVICE with Modify permission to %WINDIR%\Globalization\ folder
7. Set IIS_IUSRS or IUSR or NETWORK SERVICE with Modify permission to %PROGRAMDATA%\Microsoft\Crypto\ folder
8. Clear the Web Platform Installer download cache
9. Enable contained database authentication by running a sql query below

sp_configure 'contained database authentication', 1; GO RECONFIGURE; GO

Solr Instance Installation

1. Install Chocolatey by runnning the PowerShell script below as Administrator.

Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Scope Process -Force; iex ((New-Object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadString('https://chocolatey.org/install.ps1'))

2. Install NSSM using Chocolatey by running the command below.

C:\> choco install nssm

3. Install JRE 1.8 using Chocolatey by running the command below.

C:\> choco install jre8

4. Install OpenSSL using Chocolatey by running the command below.

C:\> choco install openssl.light

5. Download and install Solr 6.2.2 by following the Installing Solr guide.
6. Enable SSL on Solr by following the Enabling SSL guide.
7. Setup as a Service using NSSM
8. To install the Sitecore Solr Cores, edit the parameters on the c:\xp\sitecore-SolrCores.ps1 scripts to match local values.

#define parameters 
$Prefix = "xp901" 
$PSScriptRoot = "c:\xp"
$Path = "$PSScriptRoot\config\sitecore-solr.json"

$SolrUrl = "https://localhost:8983/solr" 
$SolrRoot = "C:\solr-6.6.2" 
$SolrService = "solr662" 
$CorePrefix = $Prefix

9. Run c:\xp\sitecore-SolrCores.ps1 <>

PS C:\> .\sitecore-SolrCores.ps1 scripts

Note: If the cores exist, they will be overwritten.

10. To install the xConnect Solr Cores, edit the parameters on the c:\xp\xconnect-SolrCores.ps1 scripts to match local values.

#define parameters 
$Prefix = "xp901" 
$PSScriptRoot = "c:\xp"
$ConfigPath = "$PSScriptRoot\config"

$SolrUrl = "https://localhost:8983/solr" 
$SolrRoot = "C:\solr-6.6.2"
