Requirements

The requirements are divided in the ones for the PLOSSYS 5 server and the ones for the management server.

Requirements for the Management Server

On the management server, the modules for administrating the output devices (easyPRIMA) and the log data (Elastic Stack) will be installed. If the preconfigured Keycloak from SEAL Systems is used as OIDC identity provider, we recommend installing it on the management server, too.

  • An OIDC identity provider is installed. A preconfigured Keycloak identity provider is provided by SEAL Systems for test purposes. In practice, another OIDC identity provider already installed at the customer's will be used for the user authentication and authorization. For more information about Keycloak or another OIDC identity provider to be used with SEAL Systems products, refer to the SEAL Interfaces for OIDC documentation.

  • For installing the management server, administrator privileges are required.

    Hint - user for easyPRIMA

    For running easyPRIMA, we recommend using a separate user account (service user). This can be a local or a domain user. The password for this user never must never expire.

  • An active virus scanner may slow down the installation.

Requirements for the PLOSSYS 5 Server

On the PLOSSYS 5 server, the modules for administrating and processing the jobs are installed.

Hint - cluster mode

In the cluster mode, all PLOSSYS 5 servers belonging to the cluster have to be installed identically.

  • For installing the PLOSSYS 5 server, administrator privileges are required. The PLOSSYS 5 services are running under the seal user account which will be generated during the installation.

  • The PLOSSYS CLI commands for managing the services execute bash scripts. For this, the logged-on user has to be member of the sudoers list.

  • No DNS server is active on the server.

  • On RHEL, disable the DNSmasq service with:

    sudo systemctl stop dnsmasq

    sudo systemctl disable dnsmasq

Hint - active virus scanner

An active virus scanner may slow down the installation.
