  • In the next window the Controller ID, which is a unique identifier for a Controller, is specified. You can use identifiers such as "controller-test", "controller-production" etc. Character case is significant, the characters a-z, A-Z, 0-9, underscore and hyphen are allowed. Spaces are not allowed in a Controller ID.
  • If you intend to operate a Controller cluster with two Controller instances for the active and standby cluster members, then specify the same identifier during installation of each Controller instance as otherwise the instances will not be considered members of the same cluster. This identifier cannot be modified after installation, changes to the Controller ID require reinstallation of the Controller.
    • A checkbox allows the initial role of the current Controller instance to be specidied specified - i.e. whether it starts with an active or a standby role. Do not select this checkbox if you are operating a standalone Controller instance.
    • Note that operation of a Controller cluster requires a license certificate to have been specified in the License Agreement step described above. See also JS7 - Licensing.
  • Add the HTTP port that is to be used by the JS7 Controller. Make sure that the HTTP port is available and is not otherwise used. If you run other applications that use this port then choose a different port.
  • If you specify a Windows Service account then make sure that this account has "Log on as service permissions". Consider that credentials that you enter to this window are stored in clear text with the installer response file. It is considered more secure not to add credentials with this step, but to add credentials directly after installation using the Windows Service panel.
