Building etcd

etcd v2.3.1 has been successfully built and tested for Linux on z Systems. The following instructions can be used for RHEL 7.1 , SLES 12 and UBUNTU.

Prerequisites (for RHEL 7.1 and SLES 12)

Building etcd

  1. (For UBUNTU System) Use the following commands to obtain dependencies

        

    sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install wget golang
    

2. Get etcd v2.3.1 source code from github
    

    $ wget https://github.com/coreos/etcd/archive/v2.3.1.tar.gz

  2. Untar and cd to the work directory 

    $ tar zxvf v2.3.1.tar.gz
$ cd etcd-2.3.1

  3. Check go version 

    $ go version

  4. Following changes are needed for the build to work

    Update the file `./etcdmain/etcd_phony.go`
    // +build ignore
    

    _**Note:** We changed `// +build !amd64` to `// +build ignore`_
    Update the file `./etcdmain/etcd.go`
    // +build s390x
    

        _**Note:** We changed `// +build amd64` to `// +build s390x`_
6. Build etcd
    

    $ ./build

  5. Test etcd

    First start a single-member cluster of etcd:
    $ ./bin/etcd
    

    This will bring up etcd listening on port 2379 for client communication and on port 2380 for server-to-server communication.
    Next, let's set a single key, and then retrieve it:
    $ curl -L http://127.0.0.1:2379/v2/keys/mykey -XPUT -d value="this is awesome"
$ curl -L http://127.0.0.1:2379/v2/keys/mykey
    

      You have successfully started an etcd and written a key to the store.
