Attaching VISULOX Service to VISULOX PORTAL Service

General

VISULOX Service connects the VISULOX PORTAL Service only locally. This means, on nodes without VISULOX PORTAL Service no connection is done, on nodes with VISULOX PORTAL Service (VISULOX ACCESS Node) the connection is done via localhost to the webservices. The connection gathers only the information from this VISULOX Access Node, so VISULOX Service must be installed on VISULOX PORTAL Service members in the array.


There is a single command interaction from VISULOX Service with VISULOX PORTAL Service:

CODE
visulox portal attach


This command has serveral arguments:

CommandDescription

After joining the VISULOX PORTAL Array, run as root:

Attaching VISULOX

CODE
visulox portal attach

This command checks if login-ens is enabled. If this is the case a local user vlxwebservice (610) with group ttaserv (500) was added to the system. A password was also generated and stored secure.

How to use an already defined user

If the default generated user is not allowed, the user can be applied to the attach command. The user must exist and he must have a permanent password.

CODE
visulox portal attach -adminuser <name> -adminuid <uid> -adminpwd <pwd>

Testing

The connection can be tested with "visulox integrity -portal".
