PUBLIC_URL |
Defines the “public” hostname (FQDN - fully qualified domain name) for the current machine to allow users to access CAST Imaging over the internal network. For example, imaging.corp.domain.com. If you do not intend to access the installed UI from remote devices in your network (i.e. you will be accessing it from the same machine it is installed on), then you can leave this variable set to localhost. |
HOSTNAME_xxx |
Defines the hostname for communication between specific CAST Imaging services. These variables can be updated to the current machine’s “public” hostname (FQDN - fully qualified domain name), or you can leave these variables at the default localhost since all communication is within the same machine. Whichever you choose, all variables must use the same type, i.e. all must use localhost or all must use the FQDN. |
ANALYSIS_NODE_HOSTNAME |
Defines the hostname for your analysis-node service. This variable can be updated to the current machine’s “public” hostname (FQDN - fully qualified domain name), or you can leave this variable at the default localhost since all communication is within the same machine. |
PORT_xxx or xxx_PORT |
Defines the TCP port number for each CAST Imaging service. These variables can be customized, or you can leave these variables at the default. |
CSS_INFOS |
Details of your local or remote CAST Storage Service/PostgreSQL instance in the format HOSTNAME:PORT, e.g. the FQDN or hostname such as css.corp.domain.com:2284. Only use localhost:PORT if your CAST Storage Service/PostgreSQL instance is installed on the SAME machine as ALL other components. See also Database requirements. |
CSS_USER and CSS_PASSWORD |
Credentials (username/password) for your CAST Storage Service/PostgreSQL instance defined via CSS_INFOS. Note that if you do not want to enter the password into the configuration file for security reasons, leave the CSS_PASSWORD entry blank and you will be prompted for the password during the installation process. |
CSS_ENCRYPTED_PASSWORD |
This variable is specifically and ONLY for use when your target CAST Storage Service/PostgreSQL instance is configured with credentials (either username and/or password) other than the default operator/CastAIP. If this is the case, you should enter the custom username under CSS_USER, the unencrypted custom password under CSS_PASSWORD (you can leave the variable blank and fill in during the installation when prompted if necessary) and you should finally enter an encrypted version of the same password as used for CSS_PASSWORD in CSS_ENCRYPTED_PASSWORD. To encrypt the password, you can use the a tool available here: %PROGRAMFILES%\CAST\Imaging\CAST-Imaging-Analysis-Node\admin\aip-encryption-tool.bat. |
V3_DB_NAME |
The database you would like to use to store the admin-center and analysis-node persistence schemas (postgres or other custom database). See also Database requirements. |
KEYCLOAK_DB |
The name of the database you would like to use to store the CAST Imaging authentication system (Keycloak) persistence database. See also Database requirements. |
INSTALL_DIR |
Root installation location for this installer, e.g. C:\Program Files\CAST\Imaging. If the chosen path is anything other than C:\Program Files, it must not contain any white space. |
DATA_DIR |
Sets the installation data folder (avoid using a network drive (even mapped)). A default data folder will be assigned if you do not provide a value here, as follows:- With
INSTALL_DIR set to the default (or any folder in %PROGRAMFILES%), DATA_DIR will be automatically set to %PROGRAMDATA%\CAST\Imaging. - With
INSTALL_DIR set to a custom location, then a folder called Data will be created in the root of INSTALL_DIR.
|
AIP_INSTALLDIR |
CAST Imaging Core component installation location (i.e. where CAST Imaging Core is installed on the local machine) e.g: C:\Program Files\CAST\8.4. |
DELETE_ADDITIONAL_DATA_FOLDERS |
Set to true if you would like the installer to delete the contents of the folders defined by the options SHARED_FOLDER, DELIVERY_FOLDER and DEPLOY_FOLDER (this is recommended when you want to perform a clean install and you want to re-use the same folders). If the option is set to false (default) then these folders will not be deleted and will be re-used during the installation. |
SHARED_FOLDER, DELIVERY_FOLDER, DEPLOY_FOLDER |
Details of the folder paths for analysis data storage for each node (each path must be distinct). In a single machine installation scenario (all components on one single machine) and you do not intend to add additional nodes in the future, these paths can point to local paths on the machine itself. If no value is assigned, the default paths will be used: C:\cast-node\common-data, C:\cast-node\delivery and C:\cast-node\deploy. See also File storage requirements and Software requirements for more information about the user account required to run the Microsoft Windows Services when using share network folders. |
SOURCES_FOLDER_LOCATION |
Optional (only available for single machine/standalone installations): auto configures a path to your application source code for delivery purposes. See Configuring source code delivery from a folder. This path will be checked for validity during the installation - if it is not accessible it is logged in the installation log and will not be configured. |
INSTANCE_ID |
This variable determines how the name of the Node Service is displayed in CAST Imaging in Services. If you make no change, the default is used: MACHINE_HOSTNAME:8099. |
USE_IPADDRESS |
This variable is set to false by default and should be left in this position for standalone installations (all on one machine) . Set to true if you are installing CAST Imaging on multiple machines (distributed/enterprise installation) or you are adding additional nodes to an initial installation all on one machine. |
XXX_START_AS_USER and XXX_START_AS_PASSWORD |
These variables determine the user account used to run the Microsoft Windows services. See also Software requirements. |
LICENSE_KEY |
Optional: The global license key (Contributing Developers) in plain text. This will avoid the need to provide this key during the initial start-up of the imaging-services component. Note that if you intend to use Named Application license keys, do not use this variable (you will need to choose the Named Application option in the initial configuration wizard). |
EXTEND_API_KEY |
Optional: The Extend API key in encrypted format. To encrypt the key use the executable JAR (requires an installation of Java) located in \tools\bin\imaging-encryption-tool.jar in the unzipped global installer folder. This will avoid the need to provide this key during the initial start-up of the imaging-services component. |
