Bootstrap Host
The bootstrap tool named Eurostep.SAS.Bootstrap.exe is used to bootstrap the node itself.
See the ShareAspace Host Node Configuration
for setting the bootstrap_host.json configuration file of this tool.
To bootstrap a ShareAspace Host Node, execute the Eurostep.SAS.Bootstrap.exe from a command prompt or
Windows PowerShell with the bootstrap_host.json configuration file as parameter.
Caution
1- Running the bootstrap tool will delete any existing storage folders found matching the configured values.
2- Before running the bootstrap tool, and specially before starting the ShareAspace Host service, make sure that the Service Account has access rights to the storage folders and the ProgramData/Eurostep (those are created at bootstrap time).
C:\Program Files\Eurostep\ShareAspace\Host\> Eurostep.SAS.Bootstrap.exe bootstrap_host.json
After the host is bootstrapped start the host windows service named ShareAspace Nova Host:
- Open the Services: [Win]+[r] ->
Services.msc-> [Enter]- Find the service named
ShareAspace Nova Host - Right click the service, Click
Start
- Find the service named
If the Service Host is to be run by a user without administrative rights one must first allow that user rights to register URLs.
The ShareAspace Host Node is now running and need to have a Collection bootstrapped on to it.
Failover configuration
If the bootstrap_host.json has been configured to use restore mode (see the ShareAspace Host Node Configuration) there is no need for running the collection bootstrap (unless a manual restore is intended).
Note
Each host node in a failover configuration must be bootstrapped.
