Article summary

Upon successful installation, a default IAP configuration file will be created at /opt/pronghorn/current/properties.json. This file will initially contain a default IAP configuration that may be edited to match the environment.

For installs via Itential Deployer, the IAP config file is located at /opt/automation-platform/current/properties.json.
Legacy IAP installs and IAP installs using .bin executables will continue using pronghorn.


  1. Edit /opt/pronghorn/current/properties.json.

  2. Change all references of mongodb://mongo:27017 to either the hostname/IP address of your MongoDB server or localhost if hosted on the IAP server.

    Example Options

    # Option 1) Hosted locally on IAP server.
    mongodb://localhost:27017
    
    # Option 2) Hosted on a standalone MongoDB server.
    mongodb://mongodb.test.com:27017
    
    # Option 3) MongoDB replica set.
    mongodb://mongo01.test.com:27017,mongo02.test.com:27017,mongo03.test.com:27017?replicaSet=rs0
    
  3. Change all references of "host": "redis" to either the hostname or IP address of your Redis server or localhost if hosted on the IAP server.

    Example Options

    # Option 1) Hosted locally on IAP server.
    "host": "localhost"
    
    # Option 2) Hosted on a standalone Redis server.
    "host": "redis.test.com"
