Centralised

Description

The IBI-aws Admin is stored on a central share and started from there.

What is required?

System requirements

To be able to use IBI-aws, the system requirements must be observed.

Central Share

A central share is required, that is accessible to all IBI-aws Admin users. This share must be able to handle continuous queries made by the users.

IBI-aws installation package

The installation package (Zip archive) contains a "Ready to use" folder structure. The latest version can be downloaded in the IBI-aws customer area. A conventional installation via setup is not required.

Procedure

Prepare central share

The UNC-path of the <Installation Location> could look like this:

\\SERVER\IBI-aws$\

Unpack installation package

Unpack the installation package, which contains the "Ready to use" folder structure, at any place on the central share (<Installation Location>).

Warning

Please observe the information about Windows security

Store application data on the central file share

When using a single tenant

  1. Copy the Admin directory from the installation package to the central file share

When using multiple tenants

  1. Copy the Admin directory from the installation package to the central file share

  2. A subdirectory (e.g. tenant 1, tenant 2, etc.) is created for each tenant. The name of the directories can be freely chosen

  3. Then the file Data.xml located in the Admin directory is copied into each tenant directory

  4. The file Data.xml in the Admin directory is no longer needed and can be deleted

  5. If required, the license files as well as the resources directory can be stored in the tenant directory

  6. Open the file IBI.aws.Admin.exe.config with a text editor of your choice and activate the following property:
