A meshlet is a Perspectium application that helps in integrating Perspectium-supported applications for data storage. Each meshlet is a self-contained application that connects to the Mesh Message Queue Service (MQS) to read and write messages to the queues. 

Meshlets will consume messages from a queue and then decrypt the message and convert it to the expected format to save into the target system or database. Once a message is consumed from the Integration Mesh, the message will no longer reside in the queue and once the meshlet has finished processing a message, the message will be gone as the meshlet does not keep any messages long term.

Meshlets are also used with ServiceBond—read about that here.

While it is recommended that one Perspectium Meshlet run per machine, multiple meshlets can be installed as services on the same machine for multitenancy.

(info) NOTE: If you are already have a meshlet installed and need to update the meshlet, please uninstall the meshlet service first as described below.

For any issues regarding JStack, contact Perspectium Support.


Prerequisites  

(warning) First, contact Perspectium Support to get the install-multitenant-meshlet-service zip installation file. 


Installing Multitenant Meshlet as a service

To install the meshlet as a service in your Windows or Linux machine, follow these steps:

UI Step

Open File Explorer and find the folder where install-multitenant-meshlet-service is located, i.e. C:\Users\username\Downloads\. 

Then, right-click the folder and select Extract All. 


UI Step

Open up a Command Prompt and run as an Administrator. For example, type cmd in the Windows search window and right-click on Command Prompt and select Run as administrator.


UI Step

In the CommandPrompt, change your directory to the location where the install-multitenant-meshlet-service zip was extracted to.

For example C:\Users\username\Downloads\install-multitenant-meshlet-service.

Code Block
languagebash
cd ..\..\Users\username\Downloads\install-multitenant-meshlet-service



UI Step

Install the meshlet as a service that you want to run on this machine by entering the following commands:

Code Block
install-multitenant-meshlet-service.bat -m application/version/meshlet.jar -c application/meshlet.zip -e environment_name

Replace the following path with: 

FieldDescriptionExample
application/version/meshlet.jarMeshlet jar locationIvanti/Gold_5.0.12/perspectium-meshlet-ivanti-user-5.0.12.jar
application/meshlet.zipMeshlet zip folder location Ivanti/Ivanti-User.zip
environment_name 

(Optional) Specifies an environment for the meshlet 

This is a way to label what type of meshlet it is (i.e. it's a production, test, dev meshlet) for informational purposes only and is used to create the folder structure where the meshlet is installed.

Production

(warning) Contact Perspectium Support for the proper links for the meshlet and configuration to be installed. 



Installing Ivanti User Meshlet as a service example:

Code Block
install-multitenant-meshlet-service.bat -m Ivanti/Gold_5.0.12-111111111/perspectium-meshlet-ivanti-user-5.0.12.jar -c Ivanti/Ivanti-User.zip -e Production

(info) NOTE: The meshlet will be installed in the C:\Perspectium-<Configuration>-<Environment_Name> directory where <Configuration> is the name of the configuration file specified without the file extension and <Environment_Name> is the name of the environment.

Using the above Ivanti User meshlet example, the meshlet would be installed in C:\Perspectium-Ivanti-User-Production\ (<Configuration> of Ivanti-User.zip and <Environment_Name> of Production). If no <Environment_Name> is specified, then it will be installed in C:\Perspectium-<Configuration> i.e. C:\Perspectium-Ivanti-User.


UI Step

Go to Windows Services and start the service for the meshlet (e.g. Perspectium Ivanti User Meshlet Production service).

Uninstalling Multitenant Meshlet as a service

To uninstall the previously installed service for a meshlet, follow these steps: 


UI Expand
titleWindows Uninstall


Divbox
stylebackground:white;


UI Steps
sizesmall


UI Step

Open up a Command Prompt and run as an Administrator. For example, type cmd in the Windows search window and right-click on Command Prompt and select Run as administrator.

In the Command Prompt, change your directory (cd) to the location of the meshlet application folder. By default the meshlet is installed in the C:\<meshlet_name>\src\main\resources when installed using the above steps. For example, if the meshlet is installed in C:\perspectium-Ivanti-Incident\src\main\resources:

Code Block
languagebash
cd C:\perspectium-Ivanti-Incident\src\main\resources



UI Step

Then, uninstall the meshlet by running the following command:

Code Block
languagebash
uninstall-meshlet-service.bat

(info) NOTE: The meshlet remains installed on the machine if you want to run the meshlet manually in the foreground.

titleLinux Uninstall


Divbox
stylebackground:white;

(info) NOTE: This feature will only uninstall the meshlet service that the uninstall command is called for. It will not uninstall other meshlets.

UI Steps
sizesmall


UI Step

To uninstall the meshlet service, you can use the following command in your terminal:

Code Block
languagebash
sudo /etc/init.d/psp-meshlet-meshlet_service_name uninstall

Where psp-meshlet-meshlet_service_name is the name of the service as previously installed in the Linux Install section above.


Using the example from the Linux Install section above where we installed the meshlet with the name jira-change-prod (and as the installation mentions above, the actual meshlet service name will be prepended by psp-meshlet-, i.e., psp-meshlet-jira-change-prod), this command would be: 

Code Block
languagebash
sudo /etc/init.d/psp-meshlet-jira-change-prod uninstall


The uninstall feature will remove all files related to this particular meshlet service only. This includes:

  • The meshlet service's scripts (start, stop and uninstall) as located in /usr/local/bin. This includes the uninstall script so you cannot run uninstall again on this particular meshlet service unless you install it again. Scripts for other meshlet services in /usr/local/bin are not affected.
  • The meshlet's init script in /etc/init.d
  • The meshlet's application files
    • If you ran the online installation of Linux Install, then this deletes the meshlet's application folder and its files as found in /opt (i.e. /opt/perspectium-JiraChangeMeshlet-jira-change-prod)
    • If you ran the offline installation, this only deletes the meshlet's application files in the folder where you put the meshlet's application files. It does not delete the folder since that folder was created by you (and not the meshlet service) prior to installing the meshlet.
