After the ARIS Server installation has completed, check the system. In order to prevent unauthorized access, you must change initial passwords and optionally define security settings for passwords. Depending on the features you want to use in ARIS additional modifications are required.
Procedure
If you use an external database management system and you have created empty schemes for additional tenants, you must assign additional tenants to these schemes after the ARIS Server setup is completed. The default tenant and the master tenant were assigned automatically.
To do so, start ARIS Cloud Controller (acc10.sh). If you have changed the ARIS Agent's default user credentials during this procedure, you will be prompted for that password you have chosen.
As the internal ARIS user running all runnables has no root privileges all privileged ports (<1024) cannot be used. To run ARIS under a privileged port you need to redirect the ports.
Enter startall. This process will take a while.
Enter list to monitor the status of all runnables.
The state of all runnables represented by their instance IDs is listed. Possible states are:
UNKNOWN
The runnable state is not yet known. This state is shown directly after ARIS Agent was started.
STARTING
The runnable is starting, but this process is not complete yet.
STARTED
The runnable is running.
DEACTIVATED
The runnable is not in use. It has been deactivated manually and can be activated if necessary.
This runnable is deactivated if ARIS Server was installed without ARIS Aware.
DOWN
This runnable started and crashed. ARIS Agent will attempt to automatically restart the runnable momentarily.
FAILED
This runnable has crashed. ARIS Agent has given up trying to restart the runnable.
If you want more detailed information on health checks, please refer to the ARIS System Monitoring guide. If a runnable does not start properly, read the Basic Troubleshooting guide.
After all runnables have started, open your browser and enter localhost or http://<IP address or fully-qualified host name>:<load balancer port>/#<tenant name>/adminSettings. You must enter the port number only if you have changed or redirected the standard port. The login dialog opens.
Enter the user name superuser and the password superuser. This user only has access to the ARIS Administration of the server.
Click OK. ARIS Administration opens.
Click Licenses and checkwhether the licenses were properly imported during setup. If you have not imported licenses during setup, do so now. For detailed information on license and user management and security settings refer to the Manage ARIS Connect online help chapter.
If you have installed ARIS Publisher Server, import the ARIS Publisher Server license file.
Click User management. The list of users is displayed. It contains all default users.
Change all default passwords.
Warning
To prevent unauthorized access to the ARIS system, after installation or data migration, always change the default passwords of the arisservice user, the guest user, the system user and the superuser user on all operational tenants, as well as on the infrastructure tenant (master). It is mandatory to provide administrator permissions to different users and/or make sure to not lose the superuser's password. Otherwise the system will not allow administrator access. If you did not change the ARIS Agent user's credentials during the setup process, please at least change the ARIS Agent user's password manually.
If you have created additional tenants, users and licenses must be managed for each additional tenant.
Create additional system users and superusers for each tenant holding all required administrator permissions. This will allow access to the ARIS system in case of password loss.
Optionally customize the password policy. You can define passwords to expire after a period of time, define length or strength of a password or you can force users to change their passwords before first login.
If you use functionalities and extension packs, such as ARIS Publisher/IT Inventory or ARIS for SAP® Solutions you must customize ARIS depending on the functionality to be provided. Refer to the documents ARIS Publisher Specifics and IT Inventory and ARIS for SAP Solutions (see \documents\4 Administration\41 Basic). Dashboards must be made available as well. Examples can be provided using the United Motor Group database (see ARIS Aware - Configuration Guide; ARIS Designer and ARIS Connect online help: ARIS Aware).
Click Logout.
Send the URL http://<IP address or fully-qualified host name>:<load balancer port>/#<tenant name>/home to all users.
ARIS Connect is installed and running.
You can stop ARIS Server using the Stop ARIS Server link in the Windows start menu or enter stopall in the ARIS Cloud Controller (see ARIS Cloud Controller (ACC) Command-line Tool).
