Install an Infrastructure Manager Instance that Hosts a Healthcare Listener

Infrastructure Manager instances can be installed on Linux and Windows. When you install an Infrastructure Manager instance, it is enrolled with the JSS. You can install as many instances as your organization requires.

Note: You can only install one Infrastructure Manager instance per computer.

Requirements

The Infrastructure Manager Installer requires a computer with the following:

  • One of the following operating systems:

    • Ubuntu 14.04 LTS Server (64-bit) or Ubuntu 16.04 LTS Server (64-bit)

    • Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 7.0, 7.1, or 7.2

    • Windows Server 2008 R2 (64-bit), Windows Server 2012 (64-bit), or Windows Server 2012 R2 (64-bit)

  • A 64-bit capable Intel processor

  • 2 GB of RAM

  • 300 MB of disk space available

  • Java 1.8 (For more information, see the Installing Java and MySQL Knowledge Base article.)

On the JSS, the built-in CA or a trusted third-party CA must be configured.
