Mandatory Configuration Steps¶

Configure a Shared Replica Set¶

In MongoDB, a shared replica set has to be configured. For how to configure the shared replica set, refer to the SEAL-specific MongoDB documentation.

Initialize the Database¶

After configuring the shared replica set, you have to initialize the database. For how to initialize the database, refer to the SEAL-specific MongoDB documentation.

Configure MongoDB for Local Spooler¶

The keys for the cooperation with MongoDB are the same as for PLOSSYS 5. For more information, refer to the PLOSSYS 5 documentation.

Configure Local Spooler¶

For the configuration of Local Spooler, two configuration files are provided:

System Configuration¶

Open the system configuration file, local-spooler.yml, in the installation directory of Local Spooler.
Replace all occurrences of <username> and <passsword> by an user name and password.
Save your changes and close the file.

Import the system configuration:

plossys config import local-spooler.yml --insecure

Printer Configuration¶

Open the printer configuration file, relay-printer.yml, in the installation directory of Local Spooler.
Replace all occurrences of <remote-plossys-server> by the server name or IP address of the target PLOSSYS 5 system. All output jobs received by Local Spooler will be forwarded to this system.
Save your changes and close the file.
Import the printer configuration. Replace <username> and <password> by the values specified when importing the system configuration:
```
plossys printer import relay-printer.yml --insecure --user <username> --pass <password>
```
