If you haven't already, I'd double check that the external hostname ends up
in monit.conf. We could be advantaged by the fact that monit is listening
everywhere regardless of what is in "use address".

I have been able to login to the Monit web interface on EC2 hosts. I
assume that shows that this is not a problem?

I had to change this code because we now need to start Elasticsearch,
create the indices, stop Elasticsearch, then continue on. We can't create
indices with ES off. There is a similar need when loading the Geo data in
MySQL.

Should references to ansible_host be changed to inventory_hostname? IIRC,
ec2 discovered hostnames are internal which may cause a problem.

Because we want everything in `create-indices.yml` to "run once". I pulled
`run_once: yes` out to `roles/elasticsearch/tasks/main.yml`. Make sense?

METRON-132 Monit Integration
Changes
# METRON-85
Addressed bug that caused Amazon EC2 deployment to always wait a fixed 5
minutes instead of continuing when the hosts are actually ready
# METRON-132
Decouple Install and Start of System Components
- Decouples the installation of components from the starting of them. A
component can be installed, but not started.
- Define which services need started as a property.
- Enables different deployments to start more or fewer services. A
development platform can start no services by default, while an Amazon EC2
cluster can start all services.
- For example, to start only component related to YAF ingestion
```
services_to_start:
- mysql
- elasticsearch
- enrichment
- yaf-parser
- yaf
```
# METRON-132
Monit Integration
- Leverages Monit as a process watchdog to manage sensors, topologies, and
core services.
- Monit web interface exposed at http://hostname:2812 which can be used to
start, stop, check status of any of the sensors or topologies.
- When monitoring is enabled (on by default) if a process dies, it will be
restarted.
- Will not monitor a service that is not installed.
- Monit command line tools simplify the process of managing Metron
components
For example, tired of the noise from your laptop fan when running
Metron's 'single node vagrant'? This will quiet her down. Finally, peace and
quiet!
```
monit stop all
```
Need to work on a single ingest feed?
```
monit start bro
monit start bro-parser
```
Getting cold and need some heat? Start everything.
```
monit start all
```
Groups have also been defined to make things simpler. For example,
start all parser topologies.
```
monit -g parsers start
```
Start all components required to consume and enrich Bro data.
```
monit -g bro start
```
What is running?
```
monit summary
```
- The post-deployment report for Amazon-EC2 provides links to Monit's web
interface.
```

Validation
# Quick Dev Platform
- Deploy
- Open http://node1:2812
- Ensure that all of the following services are running and visible in the
Monit web interface.
- mysql, elasticsearch, pcap-service, metron-ui
- yaf, snort, snort-logs, bro, pcap-replay
- yaf-parser, bro-parser, snort-parser, enrichment
- Login to node1 and validate the previous step by running `monit summary`
- Run `monit stop all`
- Ensure all services stopped on the host
# Amazon EC2
- Deploy
- Open http://ec2-host:2812 across each of the 10 nodes.
- Ensure that all of the following services are running somewhere on the
cluster.
- mysql, elasticsearch, pcap-service, metron-ui
- yaf, snort, snort-logs, bro, pcap-replay
- yaf-parser, bro-parser, snort-parser, enrichment
- Login to a host and validate the previous step by running `monit summary`
- Run `monit stop all` on the same host
- Ensure all services stopped on the host
