Release 4.6.1 will introduce the support for BlackBox algorithms. For this reason DataMiner service will also need to support Knime, Octave, Python, Windows (Mono).
These tools must be added to the default installation of service.

knime is only installed on the dev and proto dataminer instances right now.
I've changed the playbook so that it will be installed on all the instances.

About the other software: octave, python, mono are already installed. The installation is not full (and it can't be, there are tens of thousands of additional modules). If some octave, python or mono components are missing, please detail exactly what's needed.

The missing knime is the only difference between the dev and production instances right now.

I think that you can align knime with the packets provided by the knime-full installation, and I believe that in other cases it is enough the default version, as also described here:

Both the basic and the full knime distributions are installed, you can get the details from the past tickets: #8965 and #8596

I know that list and it's not useful for our environment. The fact is that octave, mono and python are already installed and both mono and python provide a list of additional packages that were requested at various times.
If there are no additional requirements from what's already installed, there are no other steps needed.

Please, can you confirm that these tools are installed on all DataMiner?
For example I see:

gcube@dataminer1-pre:/$ /usr/local/bin/knime-full
-bash: /usr/local/bin/knime-full: No such file or directory

knime has been installed in preproduction.
