Configuration using the configuration tool
The Spotfire Server configuration tool provides a clear path to a basic installation, and offers the most frequently used configuration options.
The configuration tool must be run by a Spotfire administrator. If the Spotfire administrator does not have access to the computer running Spotfire Server, or if the server cannot display graphics, the configuration tool can be run from a local computer.
- Opening the configuration tool
You can use the Spotfire Server configuration tool for the initial configuration of your Spotfire implementation, or for updating your configuration later on. - Creating the bootstrap.xml file
The bootstrap.xml file configures the database connection. - Saving basic configuration data (authentication towards Spotfire database)
The Configuration page of the configuration tool contains the name of the authentication mode and the user directory for your installation. These instructions are for using the Spotfire database to authenticate users. - Creating an administrator user
To continue the installation process, the administrator must create an administrator user who has access to all the functionality in the Spotfire implementation.
