Foglight Server Startup page

If you selected the Run Now check box in the Foglight Server Startup step in the installer, the installer starts Foglight and launches the Foglight startup page.

When the server startup is complete, a link to the Foglight login page appears. For more information, see Logging in to Foglight.

 
* 
NOTE: The default link to the login page points to http://localhost:8080. In some instances, this link may not correspond to the URL of your Foglight server. In such cases, see Why does clicking the login link on the server startup page not work?.

Configuration about SQL Server Failover

If you want to use the SQL Server Failover function on the Foglight Management Server, perform the following configurations:

1
On the primary database instance, issue the following command:
select name, sid, password_hash from master.sys.sql_logins where name='<username>';
Store the username, sid, and password_hash for later use.
2
On the secondary database instance(s), issue the following command:
* 
NOTE: Variables contained within angle brackets should be changed to the values that you obtained in step 1.

CREATE LOGIN [<username>]
WITH PASSWORD = <password_hash> HASHED,
SID = <sid>,
DEFAULT_DATABASE = [<databasename>],
DEFAULT_LANGUAGE = [us_english],
CHECK_EXPIRATION = OFF,
CHECK_POLICY = OFF;
