UiPath Installation and Upgrade

UiPath 安装和升级指南

硬件要求

有多种用于托管 Orchestrator 的企业云部署可供选择,例如 Amazon Web Services(AWS)、Microsoft Azure 或 Google Cloud Platform (GCP)。根据您选择的部署提供商和计划构建的环境的大小,您需要咨询不同的硬件要求。

本章将深入探讨特定于其中一些场景的硬件要求。

中小型部署

硬件要求因开发环境和生产环境等因素而异。虽然与生产环境相同的硬件要求可用于测试和开发目的,但这意味着增加不必要的成本,尤其是在大规模部署时。

Development Environments

These requirements assume a maximum of 100 Unattended robots running simultaneously. Two machines can be used, one for Orchestrator and (optionally) Elasticsearch, and one for SQL Server, configured as follows:

Web Application Server

CPU Cores (>2GHz)RAM (GB)HDD (GB)
44150

SQL 服务器

CPU Cores (>2GHz)RAM (GB)HDD (GB)
48300

Production Environments

For production environments, it is highly recommended to provide one dedicated server for each role:

  • Orchestrator web application.
  • SQL Server Database Engine.
  • Elasticsearch and Kibana.

对于多节点安装,除上述要求外,还需满足以下要求:

📘

备注:

多节点 Orchestrator 部署使用 RESP(REdis 序列化协议)进行通信,因此可以使用依赖于此协议的任何解决方案进行配置。
HAA 是这类解决方案中唯一受 UiPath 支持的解决方案。

The hardware configuration for each required server depends upon the size of your deployment, as detailed below. The hardware requirements presented here were made based on tests where a Robot was defined as follows:

  • messages are sent from the Robot to Orchestrator with a frequency of 1 message per second
  • within 60 seconds, the Robot sends:
    • 15 条消息日志
    • 2 heartbeats
    • 6 get asset requests
    • 6 add queue item requests
    • 6 get queue item requests

Support up to 250 Unattended Robots

📘

备注:

如果机器人超过 200 个,则在 UiPath.Orchestrator.dll.config 文件中将 SQL 连接字符串池中允许的连接数量增加到 500。为此,需要将 Max Pool Size=500 参数添加到连接字符串中,使其看起来类似于以下示例:
<add name="Default" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" connectionString="Server=SQL4142;Integrated Security=True;Database=UiPath;Max Pool Size=500;" />

Disc space requirements highly depend on:

  • Whether work queues are used or not. If work queues are used, it depends on average number of transactions added daily/weekly and size (number of fields, size of each field) of each transaction.
  • The retention period for successfully processed queue items (the customer should implement their own retention policy).
  • Whether messages logged by the Robots are stored or not in the database. If they are stored, a filter can be applied to only store in the DB specific levels of messages (for example, store in the DB the messages with log level Error and Critical, and store in Elasticsearch messages with log level Info, Warn and Trace).
  • Frequency of logging messages - the Robot developer uses the Log Message activity at will, whenever they consider a message is worth to be logged.
  • The retention period for old logged messages (the customer should implement their own retention policy).
  • Logging level value set up in the Robot. For example, if logging level in the robot is set to Info, only messages with levels Info, Warn, Error and Critical are sent to Orchestrator; messages with levels Debug, Trace and Verbose are ignored, they will not reach Orchestrator.

📘

备注:

For more than 50 Robots you need to instruct the Java Virtual Machine used by Elasticsearch to use 50% of the available RAM, by setting both the -Xms and -Xmx arguments to half of the total amount of memory. This is done either through the ES_JAVA_OPTS environment variable or by editing the jvm.options file.

备注:

SQL Server 标准版使用的 CPU 内核数上限为 16。对于虚拟机,请确保其为 4 个 4 内核的虚拟插槽,而不是 2 个 8 内核的插槽或 8 个 2 内核的插槽。对于企业版,16 个内核可选用任意组合方式。

For more than 300 Robots, please consider not storing all logged messages in the SQL Server database. Store in the DB only the messages with log level Error and Critical. Store all messages (including Error and Critical) in Elasticsearch.

大型部署

IaaS 有人值守的部署

以下部分描述了使用 Azure 基础架构即服务 (IaaS) 产品进行的大规模可扩展部署的要求。需要以下服务:

Architecture

📘

备注:

The architecture examples below contain optional and/or differing components (e.g. CyberArk, UiPath High Availability Add-on).

所述 Jumpbox 不是必需的,但推荐您在生产环境使用此最佳实践,因其可提供隔离和安全

硬件要求

This section describes the hardware configurations used for the performance testing listed in Scaling Your Deployment, below.

Orchestrator Nodes

Each Orchestrator node must be configured as follows:

VCPUsRAM (GB)SSD (GB)
1632128

SQL 服务器

The SQL Server virtual machine specifications must scale in line with the number of Orchestrator nodes:

Orchestrator NodesVCPUsRAM (GB)Disk
1 - 28161TB - ultra SSD disk for database, tempDB, and transactional log
516321TB - ultra SSD disk for database
1TB - ultra SSD disk for tempDB
1TB - ultra SSD disk for transactional log
1032641TB - ultra SSD disk for database
1TB - ultra SSD disk for tempDB
1TB - ultra SSD disk for transactional log
1540961TB - ultra SSD disk for database
1TB - ultra SSD disk for tempDB
1TB - ultra SSD disk for transactional log

Elasticsearch Availability Set

The Elasticsearch availability set is comprised of 3 master nodes and 6 data nodes, for a total of 9 nodes, each with the following specifications:

VCPUsRAM (GB)OS SSD (GB)Data SSD (TB)
816128 (with 5000 IOPS and 100 MB/s Throughput)1 (with 5000 IOPS and 200 MB/s Throughput)

软件要求

SoftwareVersion
Operating SystemWindows Server 2016
DatabasesSQL Server 2019
LoggingElasticsearch 7.2.0

上面列出的版本是用于所述部署和性能测试负载的版本。

Load Balancing

For multi-node deployments, it is recommended to use two Azure Standard load balancers:

  • One for the Orchestrator servers;
  • One for the Elasticsearch servers.

High Availability Add-On

🚧

重要

多节点 Orchestrator 部署使用 RESP(REdis 序列化协议)进行通信,因此可以使用依赖于此协议的任何解决方案进行配置。

仅当使用 UiPath 高可用性插件时,UiPath 才支持 Orchestrator 的高可用性部署。


Scaling Your Deployment

The number of nodes needed in your Orchestrator scale set depends on the number of Robots being deployed:

Orchestrator Scale Set NodesNo. of Robots
1up to 6,000
2up to 14,000
5up to 80,000
10up to 200,000
15up to 300,000

These deployments were tested using the hardware and software configurations above to exhibit no performance loss under the specified load below.
