New Installation of the Distributed UMS

To install the Distributed UMS, proceed as follows:

...

Note

If you activated the Distributed UMS feature and have multiple UMS Servers, take care in case you decide to disable the feature. If the Distributed UMS feature is deactivated but more than one UMS Server is using the same database, no synchronization will be done between the UMS Servers.

Switching from the Standard UMS to the Distributed UMS

If you want to extend your existing standard UMS installation to the Distributed UMS, proceed as follows:

  1. If you have a standard UMS installation with an external database: Start with step 4.
    If you have a standard UMS installation with an embedded database: Create a new external database (see (12.04.120-en_orig) Connecting External Database Systems) and add this database as a data source in the UMS Administrator > Datasource > Add (see (12.04.120-en_orig) How to Set Up a Data Source in the IGEL UMS Administrator).

  2. Copy the embedded database to the new external data source, see (12.04.120-en_orig) Copying a Data Source, and activate the new data source.
     
  3. Open the UMS Console and go under UMS Administration > UMS Network > Server to check that the server is up and running.

  4. Go under UMS Administration > Global Configuration > Server Network Settings and activateDistributed UMS enabled.


  5.  Restart the UMS Server service, e.g. via UMS Administrator > Distributed UMS. For detailed instructions on how you can restart services, see (12.04.120-en_orig) IGEL UMS HA Services and Processes.


  6. Install other UMS Servers (select Distributed UMS in the UMS installer) and connect them to the same database.
