Requirements

SEAL Systems recommends installing SEAL Operator on a separate server and not on the same server as the backend system. Also, SEAL Operator should not be installed on the management server on which easyPRIMA and Elastic Stack are running as another version of MongoDB is installed there.

Hint - active virus scanner

An active virus scanner may slow down the installation.

Server Requirements

  • To install SEAL Operator, a user account with local Administrator privileges is required. By default, the SEAL Operator services are running under the Local Service system account.

  • No DNS server is active on the server.

  • "Microsoft C++ 2015" Runtime is installed on the server.

    Hint - installation package

    The installation packages for "Microsoft C++ 2015" Runtime are available on the SEAL Systems delivery platform in the msvc2015 directory.

  • A Java Runtime Environment version OpenJDK 8 or 11 has been installed on the server. For how to install Java and set the required environment variables, refer to SEAL Online Service.

  • An OIDC identity provider is installed. SEAL Systems provides a preconfigured Keycloak installer 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 detailed instructions regarding Keycloak or another OIDC identity provider to be used with SEAL Systems products, refer to the SEAL Interfaces for OIDC documentation.

  • MongoDB as of version 3.6.17 has to be installed.

    Hint - separate installation

    As of SEAL Operator 1.3.0, MongoDB is no longer included in the installation of SEAL Operator. For how to install and configure MongoDB, refer to the SEAL-specific MongoDB documentation.

  • If you want to manage SEAL Operator services via Operator CLI, privileges for executing PowerShell scripts are required. With the installation, the privileges are also required but can be specified explicitly than. The execution policy has to be set to RemoteSigned at least. For more information about execution policies, refer to the Microsoft documentation. To set the execution policy, open a PowerShell (Administrator) and execute the following command:

    Set-ExecutionPolicy -ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned

    Hint - impermanent

    The execution policy might be overwritten by a group policy.
