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, a user account with local Administrator privileges is 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.

  • .NET Framework as of version 4.5 is installed on the management server.

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

    Hint - installation package

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

  • An active virus scanner may slow down the installation. The data directory of the SEAL Systems products, <inst_dir>\SEAL\applications\data, should be excluded from scanning.

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, a user account with local Administrator privileges is required. By default, the PLOSSYS 5 services are running under the Local Service system account.

  • No DNS server is active on the server.

  • "Microsoft C++ 2013" runtime is installed on the server.

    Hint - installation package

    The installation packages for the "Microsoft C++ 2013" runtime are available on the offical Microsoft Support pages: vcredist_x64.exe.

  • "Microsoft C++ 2015-2019" runtime is installed on the server.

    Hint - installation package

    The installation packages for the "Microsoft C++ 2015-2019" runtime are available on the offical Microsoft Support pages:vc_redist.x64.exe.

  • Privileges for executing PowerShell scripts are required. The execution policy has to be set to RemoteSigned at least. For more information about execution policies, refer to the Microsoft documentation. For setting 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.

Hint - active virus scanner

An active virus scanner may slow down the installation.
