Quick Installation

Please walk through the following steps:

Step #1 - Create a new user that will own all the release files and run the appliance

sudo adduser filescanio

Step #2 - Unpack the fsBootstrap archive to a folder, eg: your home folder

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install p7zip-full -y

7z x -p<password> fsBootstrap.zip -ofsBootstrap

rm fsBootstrap.zip

Note: as all archives use AES encryption, 7zip is required to unzip. Please use the password as provided as part of your release notes

Step #3 - Ensure that the embedded installation scripts are executable and have the unix format:

cd fsBootstrap

chmod +x *.sh

sudo apt-get install dos2unix -y

dos2unix*

Step #4 - Configure bootstrap.cfg and carefully set all options

Step #5 - Move the FileScanIO.zip archive into the current folder (fsBootstrap)

mv ../FileScanIO.zip .

Step #6 - Run the bootstrap shell script

sudo ./bootstrap.sh

Step #7 - Configure the transform and broker components to your liking

Step #8 - Access the webserver (localhost, port 443) and setup the initial admin

Step #9 - Optional: run the transform and/or broker processes, if not running already

sudo service fsio start

sudo service fsiobroker star

Step #10 - Check the output to ensure that initialization succeeded:

fsiolog

fsiologbroker

Step #11 - Run the fsFingerprint.jar (distributed with the release archive)

Run this fingerprinting tool on your host machine to generate a unique fingerprint of your deployment host environment. Upload the fingerprint contents or binary file via https://my.opswat.com, using 'Upload Large File' from the menu in the top right corner:

You will receive a license key file shortly. The license key will be needed after the deployment.java -jar fsFingerprint.jar

Step #12 - Put your license key (see Generate License Key) into the FileScanIO/fsTransform folder.

It will be picked up and loaded automatically.
