How To Install a Remote Node

Updating PIM+ To a New Version

Follow these steps to install a new PIM+ Remote Node.

Before we install the PIM+ Remote Node, we need to create a remote node authentication user.

1. Login to the PIM+ Master console.

2. Go to the settings tab, and select Login and Security Settings in the menu.

3. Select Add account to add a new user.

4. Create a user with the following information, and click Ok.

5. Create a new Remote Node group with the role "Remote Node" or create a new security group. Add the newly created user to this group.

6. Now login to the PIM+ Remote Node and run the PIM+ installer as Admin and click Next.

   Note: This screen is part of the configuration utility, which will pop up after the main installation completes.

7. Select the path where you would like to install the software.

8. Accept the Terms and Conditions, and click Next.

9. Click Install to start installing the software.

10. When the installation is done you will get the option to start up the Configuration Utility, tick the box and click Finish.

11. You will now see the Release Notes, click Next.

12. Select the Remote Node and click Next.

13. Now it's time to make a connection to the Master Console:

    • Remote site name: Choose a logical name for this site.
    • Path to Master Console: Enter the address of the Master Console.
    • Master Console user name: Sign in with the credentials you created earlier.

14. If the Master Console settings are incorrect, you will get an error message. If the connection is successful, you can finish the wizard.

15. Now open the PIM+ Master Console, and you will see that the new site has been added to PIM+. This can take up to 5 minutes.
