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. (Only if you are installing on RHEL 7.5 with Postgresql server 9.6.x)
    • Link the Postgresql files from the /usr/pgsql-9.6/bin directory:
      ln -snf /usr/pgsql-9.6/bin/* /usr/bin/
  6. Run the configure_megamesh script:
    /app/clarity/manager_scripts/bin/configure_megamesh

  7. 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.

  8. Open the /app/clarity/dmanager/etc/dmanager.conf file in a text editor.
  9. Add the following line:
    megamanager=true
  10. Save the /app/clarity/dmanager/etc/dmanager.conf file.
  11. Restart the dmanager service:
    service dmanager restart
  12. Add an unprivileged Multi-Manager user to the OS:
    useradd -m -r megamesh
  13. 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.
