Solr requirements for ImageMaster
ImageMaster full-text search requires Solr with Java. See the Compatibility Guide [Compatibility] for the exact Solr and Java versions required.
Further prerequisites include:
-
You must install Solr as a standalone server.
-
You must add the ImageMaster JAR file (in its supported version X.Y) to Solr.home:
ima-solrX.Y-extract-latest.jar
This file contains the custom integration code between ImageMaster and Solr.
-
You should not install Solr as root.
-
You must fulfill the Java requirements for Solr [Solr Requirements].
-
On both servers (ImageMaster and Solr) you must increase system resource limits:
If you already have installed the ImageMaster application server and directly want to continue with the installation of the full-text part, go to Installation of Solr.
The following subsection just describes the general context of an ImageMaster environment with full-text search so you are aware of which other components are assumed to be available.
General ImageMaster full-text environment aspects
An overall installation and operation of ImageMaster with full-text search requires an ImageMaster base installation which includes:
-
the installation of an application server (WildFly, JBoss)
-
the configuration and deployment of ImageMaster (which enables the AdminClient and Integration Service)
-
the installation of a database, which can be either one of the following in a version according to the Compatibility Guide [Compatibility]:
-
Oracle [IG Oracle]
-
SQL Server [IG SQL Server]
-
PostgreSQL [IG PostgreSQL]
-
The installation of ImageMaster on the application server is described in the separate installation manual [IM ImageMaster]. This manual also covers troubleshooting tips that relate to a full-text search installation
Further maintenance and configuration of full-text search is also done within ImageMaster:
-
in a project by a system designer or service team (e.g. configuration with SOAP UI requests)
-
provided by an administrator with the AdminClient
