环境准备

otter manager依赖于mysql进行配置信息的存储，所以需要预先安装mysql，并初始化otter manager的系统表结构

a. 安装mysql，这里不展开，网上一搜一大把

b. 初始化otter manager系统表：
下载：

wget https://raw.github.com/alibaba/otter/master/manager/deployer/src/main/resources/sql/otter-manager-schema.sql

载入：

source otter-manager-schema.sql

整个otter架构依赖了zookeeper进行多节点调度，所以需要预先安装zookeeper，不需要初始化节点，otter程序启动后会自检.

a. manager需要在otter.properties中指定一个就近的zookeeper集群机器

启动步骤

下载otter manager

直接下载，可访问：https://github.com/alibaba/otter/releases ，会列出所有历史的发布版本包下载方式，比如以x.y.z版本为例子：

wget https://github.com/alibaba/otter/releases/download/otter-x.y.z/manager.deployer-x.y.z.tar.gz

or
自己编译

git clone git@github.com:alibaba/otter.git
cd otter; 
mvn clean install -Dmaven.test.skip -Denv=release

编译完成后，会在根目录下产生target/manager.deployer-$version.tar.gz

解压缩

mkdir /tmp/manager
tar zxvf manager.deployer-$version.tar.gz  -C /tmp/manager

配置修改

## otter manager domain name #修改为正确访问ip，生成URL使用
otter.domainName = 127.0.0.1    
## otter manager http port
otter.port = 8080
## jetty web config xml
otter.jetty = jetty.xml
otter manager database config ，修改为正确数据库信息
otter.database.driver.class.name = com.mysql.jdbc.Driver
otter.database.driver.url = jdbc:mysql://127.0.01:3306/ottermanager
otter.database.driver.username = root
otter.database.driver.password = hello
otter communication port
otter.communication.manager.port = 1099
otter communication pool size
otter.communication.pool.size = 10
default zookeeper address，修改为正确的地址，手动选择一个地域就近的zookeeper集群列表
otter.zookeeper.cluster.default = 127.0.0.1:2181
default zookeeper session timeout = 90s
otter.zookeeper.sessionTimeout = 90000
otter arbitrate connect manager config
otter.manager.address = ${otter.domainName}:${otter.communication.manager.port}

准备启动

sh startup.sh
