Configure the Management Server¶

Perform the following configuration steps on the management server if you have installed PLOSSYS 5 with separate management server or in a cluster.

Configure Elasticsearch¶

Open the firewall for Elasticsearch in a PowerShell:

New-NetFirewallRule -DisplayName "Elasticsearch" -Direction Inbound -LocalPort 9200 -Protocol TCP -Action Allow

Edit the following file on the management server:

C:\ProgramData\Elastic\Elasticsearch\config\elasticsearch.yml

Add the following lines:

network.host: 0.0.0.0
discovery.type: single-node

Edit the following file on the management server:

C:\ProgramData\Elastic\Elasticsearch\config\jvm.options

Search for the following lines and update the parameters in order to set the Max_Heap_Size where <ram_mb> is to be at least 50 % of the server's RAM:
```
–Xmx<ram_mb>m
–Xms<ram_mb>m
```
Hint - same value

With –Xmx<ram_mb>m and –Xms<ram_mb>m, the same value has to be used for <ram_mb>. Otherwise, Elasticserach will not start!
Save the file.
In a PowerShell, configure the restart of the Elasticsearch service in case of failure:
```
sc.exe failure Elasticsearch reset= 0 actions= restart/60000
```
In a PowerShell, restart the Elasticsearch service:
```
restart-service elasticsearch
```

Edit the following file on the management server:
```
C:\ProgramData\SEAL Systems\config\kibana.yml
```
Uncomment the following line:
```
server.host: "0.0.0.0"
```
Save the file.
In a PowerShell, restart the seal-kibana service for Kibana:
```
restart-service seal-kibana
```
