Step 2 : Configure RMsis Home Page

  • After clicking on RMsis, you will be redirected to the installation welcome page, as shown below

  • Once you choose an option to Begin Installation, you will be redirected to RMsis Home Settings page.
  • In this step, RMsis will create RMsis Home directory to store backups, configurations (jdbc, mail etc.), logs etc.
  • Take a note of the information provided and click on next to move to the next step.

Step 3 : Configure RMsis Database

  • At present, RMsis supports MySQL, Postgres, MSSQL and Oracle databases
  • Create a database in either MySQL / Postgres / MSSQL/ Oracle and specify database connection details, as shown below

Notes
  1. RMsis Database must be different from JIRA Database.
  2. You can use different database types for JIRA and RMsis e.g. MySQL for JIRA and Postgres for RMsis.

Step 3.2 : Test Database Configuration

  • After filling the database details, you can check the database connection by clicking on TEST CONNECTION button.

Step 4 : Configure Mail

  • You can either disable OR configure your mail settings in this step.

Step 4.1 : Enter Mail Configuration

  • The details are shown in the following screens

Step 4.2 : Test Mail Configuration

Once the Mail Configuration is entered, user has an option to test

  • Connection to Mail Server
  • Send a Test Mail to ensure that the mail has been correctly configured

Step 5 :Server Settings

  • By default RMsis Server will run with http on port 3060 without any proxy settings.
  • User has an option to specify the Minimum and Maximum memory used by the JVM. 256 MB and 512 MB are the minimum acceptable limits here.

  • To run RMsis Server on https, select the option https from "Specify RMsis Server scheme". 
  • After selecting https, RMsis will ask for "Key Alias", "Keystore File" and "Keystore Password", where
    • Keystore Type: The type of keystore file to be used for the server certificate. Tomcat operates only on JKS, PKCS11 or PKCS12 format keystores.
    • Key Alias:The alias used for the server certificate in the keystore.
    • Keystore File: The pathname of the keystore file where you have stored the server certificate to be loaded.
    • Keystore Password:The password used to access the specified keystore file.


  • Reverse Proxy can also be configured for RMsis Server by checking the Enable Reverse Proxy Settings.

    • Proxy Scheme: The scheme on which the proxy server is running, can be either http or https.
    • Proxy Host Name: The host name or ip address of the proxy server. 
    • Proxy Port: The port number, on which the proxy server is running.
After configuring reverse proxy, RMsis will use the proxy base url as: <Proxy Scheme>://<Proxy Host Name>:<Proxy Port>/rm
Note : If RMsis is configured using reverse proxy, additional command line arguments for reverse proxy scheme, hostname, and port will be displayed with RMsis process.

Step 6 : Deploy RMsis
