Duty Scheduling and Handover Scenario: Operations on Duty and Internal Work Order Q&A — Deployment and Upgrade

This scenario’s data sources include enterprise scheduling systems, fault work order libraries, monitoring alert platforms, and organizational contact

What the Data for This Scenario Looks Like

This scenario’s data sources include enterprise scheduling systems, fault work order libraries, monitoring alert platforms, and organizational contact lists. Data updates run daily or weekly. Core documents include duty schedules, handover records, escalation contact lists, and daily duty reports. Duty schedule fields include duty date, on-duty personnel, contact phone number, and duty time period. Handover records include pending items, follow-up status, and liaison personnel. Escalation contact lists include contact information and responsibility scope for all levels of operations and maintenance leads.

Constraints During Deployment and Upgrade

Since data sources involve multiple internal systems including enterprise scheduling systems, fault work order libraries, monitoring alert platforms, and organizational contact lists, configure API permissions and interface addresses for connecting each system during deployment. This ensures data such as duty schedules and handover records can be synchronized to the knowledge base. Data updates run daily or weekly. Configure the trigger cycle for scheduled synchronization tasks during deployment. Avoid excessive synchronization frequency that consumes system resources, or insufficient frequency that causes data lag. The field structure of core documents is fixed. The knowledge base import template must strictly match the corresponding fields, otherwise data import will fail. Errors in this scenario directly affect operations and maintenance response efficiency. Configure highly available service redundancy during deployment, to avoid single-point failures preventing on-duty response.

Configuration Settings

The following configurations are adapted for FastGPT v4.17.0.

Configuration ItemRecommended ValueRationale
DB_MAX_LINK10–15 connectionsAdapts to the average daily database request volume of the duty scheduling and handover scenario, avoids connection overflow
REDIS_URLLocal port 6379, password set based on actual testingUsed to store temporary status data for duty handover and cache alert information
STORAGE_S3_ENDPOINTEnterprise local object storage node addressUsed to store document-type data such as duty schedules and handover records
FILE_TOKEN_KEY32-character random stringEnsures access security for duty-related files uploaded to the knowledge base
FE_DOMAINEnterprise internal operations and maintenance platform domain nameBinds internal access paths, ensures only internal personnel can access related functions
PG_URLEnterprise internal operations and maintenance work order database addressUsed to associate fault work orders with duty scheduling data, enabling automatic work order assignment

Three Common Deployment Mistakes

  • Symptom: When deploying locally with Docker, a "network unreachable" error appears after executing the pull command, and the image pull fails. Cause: The enterprise internal image acceleration address is not configured, or firewall rules restrict access to external image repositories.
  • Symptom: When uploading PDF files such as duty schedules and handover records to the knowledge base, the upload progress reaches 90% and then an "offset out of range" error pops up. Cause: File shard verification fails due to incorrect configuration of FILE_TOKEN_KEY, or the storage node corresponding to STORAGE_S3_ENDPOINT has insufficient remaining space.
  • Symptom: After private deployment is complete, internal work order Q&A cannot be bound to the duty scheduling function, and triggered Q&A has no response. Cause: The operations and maintenance work order database corresponding to PG_URL is not correctly associated in the deployment configuration, or the ROOT_KEY permission configuration is insufficient to call internal interfaces.

How to Verify Successful Configuration

  • Execute the local image pull test command, confirm that there are no network errors in the image pull process.
  • Upload a test duty schedule PDF file, confirm that there are no abnormal errors after the upload progress completes.
  • Submit a test duty work order, verify that the internal Q&A function can trigger normally and return results.
  • Check the deployment node logs, confirm that the connection status of the database, storage, and cache services is normal, with no abnormal errors.
