After completing the hosted data storage configuration, you can designate one or more iServer nodes added to the portal as hosting servers. iPortal users with the DATA_CENTER role can upload data to the portal and publish services. The portal backend will randomly designate a hosting server to publish services (for uploading data to the iPortal, see the Data). The following introduces how to specify a hosting server:
-
Log in to the portal homepage as an iPortal administrator, and click "Management" > "Servers" > "Server List" to enter the Server List page.
-
In the "Add GIS Server" or "Edit GIS Server" pop-up window, check "Whether to be a hosting server" and click the OK button.
-
The hosting servers are displayed on the "Hosting server" page, on this page, you can also view the hosted GIS servicesof a corresponding hosting server.
Note: If you upgraded the hosting iServer, you also need to edit the node information of the hosting server and save it for publishing services normally in iPortal. For details, see the FAQ.
