Ponos agent

This feature is only available for Enterprise Edition customers.

If your setup requires Machine Learning process, you’ll need at least one Ponos Agent on a dedicated server.

The setup of this kind of server is easier, as it only requires to run the agent (from Docker image registry.gitlab.teklia.com/arkindex/ponos-agent) and configure it. The tasks will then be triggered by the agent automatically.

To begin the setup, A YAML configuration file is required:

---
# Save as agent.yml
url: https://ark.localhost/
farm_id: XXXXX
seed: YYYYY
data_dir: /data

The farm_id and seed information can be found in the Arkindex administration interface under the section Ponos Farms.

You can then run the agent as:

docker run \
  --name=ponos \
  -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock \
  -v ./agent.yml:/etc/ponos/agent.yml:ro \
  -v ponos_data:/data \
  registry.gitlab.teklia.com/arkindex/ponos-agent:X.Y.Z

Please note that the agent requires a write access on the local Docker socket in order to create new containers that will run the tasks.

The ponos_data docker volume is not required, but will allow to retrieve debug logs outside of the agent container.
