In some situations, the Smartfacts server has no access to the internet. In this case, it is not possible to download the needed software and images. This article describes which options we have to install Smartfacts in such scenarios.

Provide Container Images with a Proxy Container Registry

Please contact your administrators to add the Smartfacts registry https://repo.mid.de to the proxy registry.

Add login data to the proxy registry

To connect to your proxy registry, you will need to add the proxy registry login information to your values.yaml file.

To do this, replace the placeholder in the following text and insert it into a file called “registrylogin.txt” on the Smartfacts server.

Code Block
{
  "auths":
  {
    "<proxy registry name>" :
    {
      "username":"<username>",
      "password":"<password>"
    }
  }
}

  • Replace the placehoder <proxy registry name> with the name of your proxy registry without protocol (e.g. write “repo.yourcompany.com”, not “https://repo.yourcompany.com”)

  • Replace the value of the fields “username” and “password” with the login data for your proxy registry

  • Save the file under the name “registrylogin.txt”

  • convert the login information to a base64-encoded string

    Code Block
    cat registrylogin.txt | base64 -w0 > registrylogin.base64

  • In the file “values.yaml” add a new line below the line beginning with “instance” with the content

    Code Block
      repologin: "<content of file registrylogin.base64>"

    • Replace the placehoder “<content of file registrylogin.txt>“ with the content of the file “registrylogin.base64”

    • Make sure that the indentation at the beginning of the line is exactly the same as in the line above

  • delet the files “registrylogin.txt” and “registrylogin.base64”

Prepare the Smartfacs Model Warehouse

A note on Smartfacts PoC Test Users

For the Smartfacts PoC you can use the generated test users “poc1”…”poc50”. All poc-users have the same password “poc”. For managing the test users in the CAMP use the account administrator user “acm” which has the password “acm”.

Setting-Up the CAMP (Customer Accounts for MID Products)

This section is used to add the users who will be authorized to use the instance and to assign the licenses. When you open https://camp.<yoursmartfactsdomain>, and log in with the user “acm” (password “acm”) you will be taken to this page:

...

  1. In section 1, upload the license file MID has provided in step 4 by clicking the  upload button in the upper right-hand corner and by selecting the license file.

  2. In section 2, set an account name.

  3. In section 3, synchronize the users from OpenLDAP to CAMP by clicking UPDATE USERS AND GROUPS.

  4. Assign licenses to users and groups in the CAMP.

    Check all users and/or groups that should have a license and assign licenses by clicking ASSIGN LICENSES.

The creation of the account is now complete and licenses are assigned to the users.

Create a Smartfacts Model Warehouse

  1. Open the Smartfacts URL in your browser: https://smartfacts.<yoursmartfactsdomain> and log-in with the account manager credentials (user “acm”, password “acm”).

  2. You will now be asked to create a Model Warehouse.

    1. Click on CREATE A NEW MODEL WAREHOUSE.

    2. In the create dialog, first select the previously created account.

    3. Provide a name for the Model Warehouse.

    4. Optionally, activate the check box Create Demo Models if you want some demo content to be added to the Model Warehouse.

Model Warehouse creation is the final step in the Smartfacts platform set-up process.

Install the Plug-Ins

It depends on which tools you want to use in connection with Smartfacts. Smartfacts provides a plug-in for every tool which is supported. You can download the plug-ins from the main menu via the command Get Plug-ins.
