Configuring Different Types of Access

  1. To enable logging in with a user name and password, complete the following steps.
    Note: By default, the application is installed without a login so the user can access the application without entering a user name and password.
    1. Stop the MRSA services and nginx services.
    2. Go to the file <MRSA_Home>/LSIStorageAuthority\conf.
    3. Open the file LSA.conf.
    4. Update the following field value to 0.
      # bypass authentication (use with caution)
      bypass_authentication = 1
    5. Start the MRSA services and nginx services.
  2. To enable remote access of the application, complete the following steps.
    Note: By default, the application is installed in the localhost mode. The user can only access the application from the local host IP.
    1. Stop the MRSA services and nginx services.
    2. Go to <MRSA_Home>/LSIStorageAuthority\server\conf.
    3. Open the file nginx.conf.
    4. Edit the following lines:
      listen       127.0.0.1:2463 default_server;

      Uncomment the following lines:

      #use below configuration to allow inbound access to this port from remote servers
      #listen       2463 default_server;
    5. 4) Start the MRSA services and nginx services.
