Cisco Systems 4.2(1) manual Setting up secure socket layer, To start Cisco Interaction Manager

Page 71

Setting up secure socket layer

Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) is widely used to create a secure communication channel between web browsers and servers. Set up SSL for more secure connections to your Cisco Interaction Manager installation. This is an optional step.

See Chapter 7, “SSL for secure connections” for details of the set up procedure.

Separating the web server from the application server

Perform these tasks only if you installed the web server and the application server on the same machine and now you want to separate the two servers. The procedure for separating the web server from the application server involves installing web server components on a separate server and then changing the value of the Common.messaging.applehost setting in the master and active databases.

To separate the web server from the application server:

1.First, install the web server. For details, see “Installing the web server” on page 50.

On the master and active databases, run the following query:

Update egpl_pref_globalsettings

set setting_act_val = ‘Web_Server_FQDN

where setting_name = ‘Common.messaging.applethost’

Where, Web_Server_FQDN is:

The fully qualified domain name of the web server where the messaging applet web site is created, if the installation includes a load balancer.

The fully qualified domain name of the primary, if the installation does not include a load balancer.

Starting and stopping Cisco Interaction Manager

To start Cisco Interaction Manager:

In the NT Services panel, start Cisco Service to start all Cisco Interaction Manager services. If it is a distributed-server installation, first start the Cisco Service on the services server and then on each application server. After starting Cisco Service, wait for five minutes before you attempt to log in to the product.
