Hardware recommendations Jump to heading

The hardware requirements for HAProxy Enterprise depend on the workload it needs to manage:

Only CPU and memory are taken into consideration.
Disk size depends on your operating system and the volume of logs you want to keep.
The indications below are for information only. Please contact us for assistance in sizing your servers.

Low-level workload

TCP or HTTP traffic
Up to 1000 conn/s
Very low SSL traffic or gzip compression

This type of workload can be achieved either by a Virtual Machine or a bare metal server. You need at least:

1 CPU core
1 G of RAM

Mid-level workload

TCP or HTTP traffic (including HTTP manipulation)
Up to 4000 conn/s
Low SSL traffic or gzip compression

This type of workload can be achieved either by a Virtual Machine or a bare metal server. You need at least:

Installation Jump to heading

The following procedure adds package repositories and installs HAProxy Enterprise 3.0r1.

Download the installer:

nix
wget https://www.haproxy.com/static/install_haproxy_enterprise.sh

nix
wget https://www.haproxy.com/static/install_haproxy_enterprise.sh

Optional: To verify the integrity of the install script before installing, download the SHA hash to a local directory and use it to verify the install script’s checksum:

nix
wget https://www.haproxy.com/static/install_haproxy_enterprise.sh.sha512.asc
gpg --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 0xCA2DF14657C5A207
gpg --verify ./install_haproxy_enterprise.sh.sha512.asc

nix
wget https://www.haproxy.com/static/install_haproxy_enterprise.sh.sha512.asc
gpg --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 0xCA2DF14657C5A207
gpg --verify ./install_haproxy_enterprise.sh.sha512.asc

Check for the output Good signature.

To install HAProxy Enterprise, run the following command, replacing <HAProxy Enterprise Key> with the key you were given when you registered (see HAProxy Enterprise license key). Register for a trial.
```
nix
sudo bash ./install_haproxy_enterprise.sh --version "3.0r1" --key "<HAProxy Enterprise key>"
```
```
nix
sudo bash ./install_haproxy_enterprise.sh --version "3.0r1" --key "<HAProxy Enterprise key>"
```
To see other arguments, run ./install_haproxy_enterprise.sh --help.
Enable and start the HAProxy Enterprise service:
```
nix
sudo systemctl enable hapee-3.0-lb
sudo systemctl start hapee-3.0-lb
```
```
nix
sudo systemctl enable hapee-3.0-lb
sudo systemctl start hapee-3.0-lb
```
Messages may appear, stating that backend servers are not available. This condition is expected and occurs because the default configuration file contains stubs for backend servers. Later you will modify the configuration and replace the stubs with valid server addresses.

About package repositories Jump to heading

View module dependencies Jump to heading

Available since

HAProxy Enterprise 2.4r1

To view the module dependencies for your installed version of HAProxy Enterprise, you can use the hapee-lb-rdepends tool that is installed with HAProxy Enterprise. This tool is located at /opt/hapee-3.0/bin/hapee-lb-rdepends.

To use the tool:

Run the hapee-lb executable with the -v option to identify the version and build of your HAProxy Enterprise installation.
```
nix
/opt/hapee-2.8/sbin/hapee-lb -v
```
```
nix
/opt/hapee-2.8/sbin/hapee-lb -v
```
```
output
text
HAProxy version 2.8.0-1.0.0-310.418 2023/12/14 - https://haproxy.org/
[...]
```
```
output
text
HAProxy version 2.8.0-1.0.0-310.418 2023/12/14 - https://haproxy.org/
[...]
```
The version is the first part of the output after “HAProxy version”. In this example it is 2.8. The build is the numbers following the first dash (-). In this example it is 1.0.0-310.418.

Run the hapee-lb-rdepends tool, providing the values for the parameters --version, --build, and --key as follows:

--version is the version you retrieved in the previous step. For this example, version 2.8 we will specify 2.8r1 as the version.
--build is the build you retrieved in the previous step
--key is your HAProxy Enterprise license key

nix
/opt/hapee-3.0/bin/hapee-lb-rdepends -v "2.8r1" --build "1.0.0-310.418" --key "<HAProxy Enterprise key>"

nix
/opt/hapee-3.0/bin/hapee-lb-rdepends -v "2.8r1" --build "1.0.0-310.418" --key "<HAProxy Enterprise key>"

The packages that HAProxy Technologies provides are signed. To install them, you first must import the public key.

Run the following commands:

nix
rpm --import https://pks.haproxy.com/linux/enterprise/HAPEE-key-3.0r1.asc
rpm --import https://pks.haproxy.com/linux/enterprise/HAPEE-key-extras.asc

nix
rpm --import https://pks.haproxy.com/linux/enterprise/HAPEE-key-3.0r1.asc
rpm --import https://pks.haproxy.com/linux/enterprise/HAPEE-key-extras.asc

We encourage you to validate the fingerprints first before installing them onto your system.

nix
wget https://pks.haproxy.com/linux/enterprise/HAPEE-key-3.0r1.asc
wget https://pks.haproxy.com/linux/enterprise/HAPEE-key-extras.asc

nix
wget https://pks.haproxy.com/linux/enterprise/HAPEE-key-3.0r1.asc
wget https://pks.haproxy.com/linux/enterprise/HAPEE-key-extras.asc

Then, compare the output of the following commands with the list of expected fingerprints below:

With gpg versions < 2.1.16:

nix
gpg --keyid-format long --with-fingerprint HAPEE-key-3.0r1.asc
gpg --keyid-format long --with-fingerprint HAPEE-key-extras.asc

nix
gpg --keyid-format long --with-fingerprint HAPEE-key-3.0r1.asc
gpg --keyid-format long --with-fingerprint HAPEE-key-extras.asc

With gpg versions > 2.1.16:

nix
gpg --import --import-options show-only HAPEE-key-3.0r1.asc
gpg --keyid-format long --with-fingerprint HAPEE-key-extras.asc

nix

System tuning Jump to heading

To get the best performance for your particular environment, consider the following recommendations for tuning your system.

It is advisable to disable swap for performance reasons.

Enable SYSCTL features Jump to heading

In Linux, you can use the program sysctl to read and/or modify the attributes of the system kernel, including its maximum limits and security settings.

When you install HAProxy Enterprise, some recommended sysctl settings are written to its configuration file. These sysctl settings are disabled by default.

Open the configuration file /etc/sysctl.d/30-hapee-3.0.conf
Enable the settings by un-commenting them (remove the prefixing hash sign).

Reload the file using systemctl restart systemd-sysctl.
