Configuring the Content Manager


This topic describes how to configure the Content Manager in a Multi-Manager configuration.

To configure the Content Manager

  1. Log on to the server that you have designated as the Content Manager in your environment.
  2. Open the /app/clarity/dmanager/etc/mesh.conf file in a text editor (it might not have previously existed).
  3. Add the following line:
    manager_type=mega_manager
  4. Save the /app/clarity/dmanager/etc/mesh.conf file.
  5. Run the configure_megamesh script:
    /app/clarity/manager_scripts/bin/configure_megamesh
  6. When prompted, enter passwords for the Multi-Manager users (megamesh and megamesh_config) in postgres.

    Note

    These are new passwords that will be used again when you add the Satellite Manager or Managers to the mesh.

  7. Open the /app/clarity/dmanager/etc/dmanager.conf file in a text editor.
  8. Add the following line:
    megamanager=true
  9. Save the /app/clarity/dmanager/etc/dmanager.conf file.
  10. Restart the dmanager service:
    service dmanager restart
  11. Add an unprivileged Multi-Manager user to the OS:
    useradd -m -r megamesh
  12. Restart the Multi-Manager service:
    service megamesh restart

Where to go from here

Use the procedure in Adding-Satellite-Managers-to-the-mesh to create the Multi-Manager mesh.
