Planning for authentication with gMSA

Planning for authentication with gMSA

When authenticating to the external Foglight database using gMSA (Group Managed Service Accounts), take note of the following requirements.

•
The gMSA account must have the following accounts mapped on the external SQL repository.
•
foglight
•
master
•
model
•
msdb
•
tempdb
•
When authenticating with gMSA, the Foglight Managements Server and Foglight Agent Manager (FglAM) must be installed as a service. Once installed, the Log on as account must be updated to the gMSA account.
•
The gMSA account requires the -PrincipalsAllowedRetrieveManagedPassword permission.This permission is also required on each service host.

For an account gMSA01 and host ServiceHost, you can grant this permission with the command: Set-ADServiceAccount gMSA01 -PrincipalsAllowedToRetrieveManagedPassword gMSA01$,ServiceHost$ t
•
The gMSA account must have read and write permissions on the FMS and FglAM installation directories.
•
On the machine of the FglAM/Foglight, run the following command Install-ADServiceAccount -Identity gMSA01
•
The gMSA account(s) must be configured with appropriate access, as stated below:
•
The FMS gMSA account needs access to:
•
SQL Server used for FMS repository if using Windows authentication
•
PI SQL Server instances
•
The FglAM gMSA account needs access to:
•
any SQL Server instances that it monitors
•
WMI/WinRM access to any hosts that need to be monitored.

Licensing

This section provides information about licensing for Foglight.

 
* 
IMPORTANT: See the Administration and Configuration Guide for information about license requirements, managing licenses, and the different categories of cartridges (based on their license requirements).
Providing a license file during installation

You can install a license file during installation if you perform a Custom Install. See Step 14: Add Foglight license file in Installing a new version of the Management Server.

Importing a license file after installation

You can also import a license after installing Foglight. There are three ways of providing a license file to the Management Server after installation.

Using the manual process
•
Move an existing license file into the <foglight_home>\license folder.
Using the Foglight Administration module
•
Upload a license file using the Foglight Administration module. See the Administration and Configuration Guide for instructions.
Using the command line
1
Start the Foglight Management Server.
2
Ensure that JAVA_HOME is set.
3
If you have not already done so, extract the file fglcmd.zip in <foglight_home>\tools.
4
Upload a license by navigating to <foglight_home>\tools and entering the following command:
fglcmd -usr <username> -pwd <password> -cmd license:import ‑f <license_file>
The preceding command assumes that you are using the default port 8080 and localhost. If you are not running with these default values, use the following options to indicate server and port:
-port <xx> -srv <server_name>
For example, if you want to connect to the Management Server using the default HTTPS port, include the option -port 8443 with the fglcmd command.
 
* 
NOTE: See the Command-Line Reference Guide for information about running the fglcmd utility and the options that can be used with fglcmd, including additional license-management commands.

Installation modes

Installation modes

The default mode for the installer is the graphical user interface mode. However, in cases where a graphics display is not available, the Foglight installer can be started in command-line mode by using the console mode or silent mode.

Console mode

In console mode, the install instructions are in text format, but otherwise are the same as the graphical user interface install.

To execute the console mode, type the following command:

Windows® - Foglight only
Foglight-6_0_0-install_windows-x86_64.exe -i console
Windows® - Foglight Evolve

Foglight_Evolve-x_x_x-install_windows-x86_64.exe -i console
