AxxonData installation

To install AxxonData, do the following:

1. Download the distribution archive from the AxxonSoft website and unpack it into any folder.

2. The default access protocol is HTTPS that requires manual installation of certificates on client AxxonData computers. If it is necessary to switch to HTTP, run the following command:
   

   Code Block
   language bash
   sudo ./http_https_switcher.sh HTTP

   HTTP is an insecure protocol that does not require a certificate to be installed. To switch back to HTTPS, run the following command:
   

   Code Block
   language bash
   sudo ./http_https_switcher.sh HTTPS

3. In the terminal, run the command to grant the execution permissions to the scripts (load.sh, once.sh, run.sh, stop.sh).

   Code Block
   language bash
   sudo chmod +x *.sh

4. Run the once.sh script.

   Code Block
   language bash
   sudo ./once.sh

5. Run the load.sh script.

   Code Block
   language bash
   sudo ./load.sh

6. Create the Docker services.

   Code Block
   language bash
   sudo ./run.sh

7. Check the services status.

   Code Block
   language bash
   sudo docker service ls

   In the REPLICAS column, all values must be displayed as 1/1.
   

8. Change the name of the vmscloud.local domain in the /etc/hosts file.

9. Install the root certificate. The certificate must be in PEM format with a .crt extension.

   Code Block
   language bash
   sudo mkdir /usr/share/ca-certificates/extra sudo cp rootCA.pem /usr/share/ca-certificates/extra/rootCA.crt sudo dpkg-reconfigure ca-certificates

   If you use Firefox, then you must add
the
10. the rootCA certificate to the Firefox Certificates yourself.

11. Change the AxxonData address in the Axxon One configuration:

    1. Stop the Server.
    2. In the infra.
dictionar
12. 1. dictionary file, replace the address of the CLOUD_URL parameter with vmscloud.local. If the Axxon One Server is installed in Linux OS, the file will be located in the /opt/AxxonSoft/AxxonOne/Dictionary.local directory. If Axxon One Server is installed in Windows OS, the file will be located in the C:\Program Files\AxxonSoft\AxxonOne\Dictionary.local directory. 
       
    2. Start the Server.
13. On the Axxon One Server, enter the address of the computer on which AxxonData is installed in the hosts file (C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc or /etc/hosts). For example, 192.168.11.12 vmscloud.local. If AxxonData is installed on the same computer with the Axxon One Server, you can skip this step.

Installation of AxxonData is  is complete.

AxxonData will be available at:

By default, two test users are available:

1. USER NAME
OR EMAIL—Admin1
2. —Admin1, PASSWORD
—admin1password
3. —admin1password.
4. USER NAME
OR EMAIL—Admin2
5. —Admin2, PASSWORD
—admin2password
6. —admin2password. 

These users can create other users, including the administrators. Names of users are case insensitive.

Configuring the SMTP server

To send email notifications, you must specify the parameters of the SMTP server. If you don't want to send notifications, you can skip this step. To set up an SMTP server, do the following:

1. Stop AxxonData:
   

   Code Block
   language bash
   sudo ./stop.sh

2. In the cloud.env file, specify the values of the variables:
   
   1. AXXONCLOUD_EMAIL_
TYPE—type
3. 1. TYPE—type of the Server.
   2. AXXONCLOUD_SMTP_
SERVER—address
4. 1. SERVER—address of the SMTP server for outgoing mail.
   2. AXXONCLOUD_SMTP_
PORT—port
5. 1. PORT—port number used by the SMTP server for outgoing mail.
   2. AXXONCLOUD_SMTP_
USERNAME—full
6. 1. USERNAME—full email of the account used to send messages on the SMTP server for outgoing mail.
   2. AXXONCLOUD_SMTP_
PASSWORD—16
7. 1. PASSWORD—16-character code without spaces generated when configuring the SMTP server for outgoing mail.
8. Load changes:
   

   Code Block
   language bash
   sudo ./load.sh

9. Run AxxonData:
   

   Code Block
   language bash
   sudo ./run.sh

Configuration of the SMTP server is complete.

Updating the data communication protocol on the previously installed AxxonData

To change the data communication protocol on a previously installed AxxonData, do the following:

1. Stop AxxonData:
   

   Code Block
   language bash
   sudo ./stop.sh

2. Change the protocol:
   

   Code Block
   language bash
   sudo ./http_https_switcher.sh HTTP - change https to http sudo ./http_https_switcher.sh HTTPS - change http to https

3. Load the changes:
   

   Code Block
   language bash
   sudo ./load.sh

4. Run AxxonData:
   

   Code Block
   language bash
   sudo ./run.sh

5. Check the availability of AxxonData:
   

   Code Block
   language bash
   sudo docker service ls

In the REPLICAS column, all values must be displayed as 1/1.

The data communication protocol on the previously installed AxxonData is updated.

Updating AxxonData

To update AxxonData, do the following:

1. Stop AxxonData:
   

   Code Block
   language bash
   sudo ./stop.sh

3. In the terminal, run the command to grant the execution permissions to the scripts (load.sh, once.sh, run.sh, stop.sh) in the folder with the new AxxonData version:
   

   Code Block
   language bash
   sudo chmod +x *.sh

4. Load changes:
   

   Code Block
   language bash
   sudo ./load.sh
