GIS server management

Feedback

As an administrator, you can add multiple GIS servers within your organization to iPortal for unified management. iPortal allows you to specify one or more SuperMap iServers as hosting servers to publish services; and you can also add a DataScience server to run scripts in Notebook.

Add servers

Log in to iPortal as an administrator, click Management > Server Management > Add server to enter the Add server page, which supports adding iServers and DataScience servers. Click the "Add" button to add a server.

Add a SuperMap iServer

Before performing service hosting and server monitoring, you need to add one or more iServers to the portal. Below shows the contents to be set:

  1. Server Type: Select iServer.
  2. Server: Fill in the iServer service adddress, format: http://{ip}:{port}/{server} or https://{ip}:{port}/{server}, such as: "http://192.168.120.40:8091/iserver", "https://192.168.120.40:8443/iserver".
  3. Server Alias: The alias of the iServer.
  4. Is cloud native: Whether the added iServer is a cloud native iServer.
  5. Whether to be a host server: Decide whether to specify the added iServer as a hosting server for publishing services.
  6. Whether to be monitored: Whether to monitor the added server.
  7. Manager Account: The administrator account of the server.
  8. Manager Password : The administrator password of the server.

(Note: If you have not performed monitoring configuration and enabled the monitoring function, the "Whether to be monitored" checkbox is gray and cannot be checked, but you can still add the server to the portal. After you complete the monitoring configuration, you can set the added server to be monitored via the edit server operation. Click the "Edit" button, now the "Whether to be monitored" checkbox on the pop-up window can be checked, check it and click "OK" to finish the edit operation. The "Monitored" column of the servers list shows whether the server is monitored. To view the monitoring status, go to the Realtime Monitoring page.

Add a DataScience server

Before using a Notebook to run scripts, you need to add a DataScience server to iPortal. Currently, the following two DataScience services are supported:

On the Add Server page, you need to specify the following contents:

  1. Server Type: Select DataScience.
  2. Server: Fill in the DataScience service adddress, format: http://<server>:<port> or https://<server>:<port>, such as: "http://192.168.120.40:8001", "https://192.168.120.40:8001".
  3. Server Alias: The alias of the DataScience server
  4. Manager Token: The API Token applied by the administrator account, which is the credential for accessing the DataScience service.

Note: iPortal only supports adding one DataScience server.

Edit servers

Log in to iPortal as an administrator, click Management > Server Management > Add server, the Add server page lists the added servers. To modify a specific server's configuration info, click the "Edit" button to open the pop-up "Edit GIS Server "window to finish.

Edit the SuperMap iServer

You can modify the server's access address, server alias, administrator account name, and administrator account password. You can also specify whether the server is a hosting server and whether it will be monitored.

Specify SuperMap iServer as a hosting server

When editing the SuperMap iServer, check the "Whether to be a host server" item, click "OK", then the server can be used to publish services. You can specify more than one iServer as hosting servers. The hosting servers are displayed on the "Hosting server" page, on this page, you can also view the hosted GIS services of a corresponding hosting server.

Note: If the hosting iServer is upgraded, you need to edit the node information of the hosting server and save it so that it can publish services normally in iPortal. For details, please see: FAQ.

Edit the DataScience server

You can modify the server's access address, server alias, and administrator token.
