DNS name configuration
Sample domain names that need to be assigned to the servers (DNS names are for example purpose only. There are no specific requirements for DNS names).
| Domain Name (Example) | Record Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| db.example.com | A or CNAME | DB Server |
| app.example.com | A or CNAME | APP Server |
| s3.example.com | additional A or CNAME record for APP server | APP Server *required to access S3 emulator URLs like this s3.example.com/bucket *Applicable for 9.0.4+ release only |
| apm.example.com | A or CNAME | APM Server |
| ocr.example.com | A or CNAME | OCR Server |
| vds-standalone.example.com | A or CNAME | VDS standalone server (master + slave) |
| vds-master.example.com | A or CNAME | For installing VDS in cluster mode. There might be multiple VDS Slave servers. DNS records should be created for all of them. |
| vds-slave.example.com | A or CNAME | |
| rpa.example.com | A or CNAME | RPA server |
| bi.example.com | A or CNAME | BI server (Analytics) |
If several roles are going to be installed on one server, the server must have all domain names that match the roles that will be installed.
The alternative way is as follows. If you can't use DNS service for any resson, add the records into hosts files on each server and end users' PCs that will use the product:
- On Linux machines, edit the
/etc/hostsfile. - On Windows machines, edit the
C:/Windows/system32/drivers/etc/hostsfile.
IP Addresses below are for sample purpose. You should use your real IP addresses. Add the following records to the hosts files:
192.168.1.1 db.example.com
192.168.1.2 app.example.com
192.168.1.2 s3.example.com
192.168.1.3 apm.example.com
192.168.1.4 ocr.example.com
192.168.1.5 automl.example.com
192.168.1.6 rpa.example.com
192.168.1.7 bi.example.com
