How to move self hosted sisense on a single ec2 behind ALB?

[ibardarov]

Hello,

What are the steps to move Sisense behind an AWS ALB?

In the config I have

k8s_nodes:
 - { node: NODENAME, internal_ip: "10.102.20.166", external_ip: "4.5.6.7" }

I didn't restart sisense or re-installed it. Only added from single_config.yaml:application_dns_name
into Admin / Trusted Servers

I thought it would be enough to detach the IP from the ec2 instance, but I start having timeout outs when trying to access the dashboards.

I also tried to remove the external IP, but sisense doesn't allow empty external IP

single_config.yaml:

k8s_nodes:
 - { node: NODENAME, internal_ip: "10.102.20.166" }


$./sisense.sh single_config.yaml

Wrong syntax was found at : {"node":"NODENAME","internal_ip":"10.102.20.166"}
Please verify the following:
- external_ip: "null" must follow IPv4 structure x.x.x.x or be different from 127.0.0.0 and 0.0.0.0

Why I see timeout on 1.2.3.4:443  instead of 4.5.6.7 ?

But when I re-attached the 4.5.6.7 to the ec2 sisense everything works.

We done it by setting internal and external IP the same. also the hostname.

## Uninstall the Sisense

Change in the configuration

uninstall_cluster: true

uninstall_sisense: true

## Configure now ssl

Change in the configuration

k8s_nodes:

- { node: hostname, internal_ip: "INTERNAL_IP", external_ip: "INTERNAL_IP" }

Additionally to remove the ssl from sisense ec2 we did

is_ssl: false

ssl_key_path: ""

ssl_cer_path: ""

uninstall_cluster: false

uninstall_sisense: false

# Setup the ALB

The listener should forward to the new instance on HTTP port 30845

The healtchecks

health_check {

port = 30845

protocol = "HTTP"

matcher = "200,404"

}
