MySQL tuner should give some recommendations on settings to tweak.
sudo apt-get install build-essential make gcc g++
Other things to install
sudo apt-get install p7zip bzip2
Should be able to get all the dependencies for MXE in one go by running
sudo apt-get install -y autoconf automake bison make build-essential gcc g++ python intltool libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 libtool-bin p7zip-full

Create tmpfs ramdisk. Note if your Linux user is something other than steve you’ll need to change where appropriate.
mkdir /home/steve/mcdisk
In etc/fstab add the following
tmpfs /home/steve/mcdisk tmpfs defaults,size=4096m 0 0
This creates a 4GB ram disk at /home/steve/mcdisk
To mount it you can either reboot, or run
mount -a
Copy your current Minecraft directory to the ram disk
cp -R /home/steve/Current_MC_Server/ /home/steve/mcdisk
Create a Bash script in “/home/steve” named “ramdisk_save.sh”
Paste the following in. You may need to install rsync if you do not have it installed
!/bin/bash RAMDISK="/home/steve/mcram/" MCDIR="/home/steve/1.13" rsync -r -t $RAMDISK/ $MCDIR/ rsync -r -t $MCSTORE/ $MCPATH/
Now add the script to crontab
crontab -e
and
*/5 * * * * /home/steve/ramdisk_save.sh
This will now run every 5 minutes and sync any changes on the ram disk to the original directory.
Start the Minecraft server
java -Xmx3072M -Xms3072M -jar server.jar nogui
It looks like the Windows Defender Real-time protection can cause issues when trying to copy files on a local drive even if the drive is an SSD. Typically a copy seems to start out great, but then slows down to a crawl less then 1MB/s copy rate. Probably has to do with Defender having to scan every file as it is copied.
To fix/increase the copy speeds you can turn off Real-time protection.
To turn off Windows Defender Real-time protection, open up Settings > Update and Security > Windows Security > Virus & threat protection “That should open up the Windows Defender Security Center” > Virus & threat protection settings
Now Turn Real-time protection off.
Install certbot
sudo apt-get install python-certbot
Generate certificate. Change unifi.yourdomain.com to the domain name you have pointing to your UniFi-Video controller.
sudo certbot certonly -d unifi.yourdomain.com
Certbot will create the files in “/etc/letsencrypt/live/unifi.yourdomain.com/”
Now you should stop the unifi service.
systemctl stop unifi-video
The following two commands create and install the keystore for the UniFi-Video application. These commands were copied from here. Thanks scobber!
echo ubiquiti | openssl pkcs12 -export -inkey /etc/letsencrypt/live/unifi.yourdomain.com/privkey.pem -in /etc/letsencrypt/live/unifi.yourdomain.com/cert.pem -name airvision -out /usr/lib/unifi-video/data/keys.p12 -password stdin echo y | keytool -importkeystore -srckeystore /etc/letsencrypt/live/unifi.yourdomain.com/keys.p12 -srcstoretype pkcs12 -destkeystore /usr/lib/unifi-video/data/keystore -storepass ubiquiti -srcstorepass ubiquiti
Remove or rename the Trusted Store. If you don’t, the cameras will connect, but will not record. The controller will rebuild the ufv-truststore when it starts up and the cameras will be able to record.
mv /usr/lib/unifi-video/data/ufv-truststore{,.old}
Start the UniFi-Video service
systemctl start unifi-video
Now you can check it by going to https://unifi.yourdomain.com:8443
Install the open vm tools from the distros repos
if your on Fedora you’ll need to use dnf instead of yum.
yum install open-vm-tools
Enable tools on boot up
systemctl enable vmtoolsd
Start service
systemctl enable vmtoolsd
The following command allows Winbox from the 192.168.0.0/16, and 10.0.10.0/24 network ranges. You can change winbox to ssh or any of the other services in ip services.
ip service set address="192.168.0.0/16, 10.0.10.0/24" winbox
To check if SELinux is enabled or disabled, you can us the sestatus command
sestatus
Or you can grep what is in the SELinux config
cat /etc/selinux/config | grep SELINUX=.*abled
In Ubuntu the simplest way to install the VMware tools is through apt.
sudo apt-get install open-vmware-tools
Shouldn’t have to do anything else.
You can also install the tools by hitting Install VMware tools from either the web UI, or vShpere. This will mount a virtual CD on the OS, you can then copy the contents to a local directory in the vm. You can then proceed to install them by extracting the tar file with
tar -xzf VMware*
cd into the new directory
cd vmware*
and run
sudo ./vmware-install.pl
