Configure the Relay Server¶

Configure a Shared Replica Set¶

In MongoDB, a shared replica set has to be configured:

Open the MongoDB configuration file:

C:\ProgramData\SEAL Systems\config\mongod.conf

Add the following lines:
```
replication:
  oplogSizeMB: 2048
  replSetName: p5
```
Hint - oplogSizeMB

We recommend setting oplogSizeMB to 5 % of the disk space available for MongoDB.

Restart the following service:

plossys service stop seal-mongodb
plossys service start seal-mongodb

Initialize the Database¶

You have to initialize the database after configuring the shared replica set.

Initialize the database:

& "C:\Program Files\MongoDB\Server\3.6\bin\mongo.exe" --ssl --sslAllowInvalidCertificates --sslAllowInvalidHostnames --eval "rs.initiate()"

Import system configuration¶

Open the system configuration file relay-server.yml in your installation directory.
Replace all occurrences of <username> and <passsword> with an username and password.
Save your changes and close the file.
Import the system configuration from your install directory:
```
plossys config import relay-server.yml --insecure
```

Import printer configuration¶

Open the printer configuration file relay-printer.yml in your installation directory.
Replace all occurrences of <remote-plossys-server> with the hostname or ip address of the target PLOSSYS 5 system. All print jobs received by the Relay Server will be forwarded to this system.
Save your changes and close the file.
Import the printer configuration:
```
plossys printer import relay-printer.yml --insecure --user <username> --pass <password>
```
Please replace <username> and <password> with the values you chose in the section above.

Troubleshooting: Printer with name `relay-printer` already exists in the target PLOSSYS 5 system¶

The name of the relay printer must not match any printer name defined in the target PLOSSYS 5 system. If there is already a printer called relay-printer, you must execute the following steps:

Change the printer name relay-printer in relay-printer.yml.
In relay-server.yml replace relay-printer with the name you chose in step 1 for the printer.

Import the configurations again:

plossys config import relay-server.yml --insecure
plossys printer import relay-printer.yml --insecure --user <username> --pass <password>
