Chapter 7. Running standalone Business Central

Procedure

1. Create a directory and move the rhdm-7.3.0-decision-central-standalone.jar file to this directory.
2. In a terminal window, navigate to the directory that contains the standalone JAR file.

3. Create the application-users.properties file. Include an administrative user and if this Business Central instance will be a Decision Manager controller for Decision Server, include a Decision Manager controller user, for example:

   rhdmAdmin=password1
   controllerUser=controllerUser1234

4. Create the application-roles.properties file to assign roles to the users that you included in the application-users.properties file, for example:

   rhdmAdmin=admin
   controllerUser=kie-server

5. Create the application-config.yaml configuration file with the following contents, where <APPLICATION_USERS> is the path to the application-users.properties file and <APPLICATION_ROLES> is the path to the application-roles.properties file:

   swarm:
     management:
       security-realms:
         ApplicationRealm:
           local-authentication:
             default-user: local
             allowed-users: local
             skip-group-loading: true
           properties-authentication:
             path: <APPLICATION_USERS>
             plain-text: true
           properties-authorization:
             path: <APPLICATION_ROLES>
   datasource:
     management:
       wildfly:
         admin: admin

6. Enter the following command:

   java -jar rhdm-7.3.0-decision-central-standalone.jar -s application-config.yaml

   In addition, you can set any properties supported by Business Central by including the -D<property>=<value> parameter in this command, for example:

   java -jar rhdm-7.3.0-decision-central-standalone.jar -s application-config.yaml -D<property>=<value> -D<property>=<value>

   See Section 7.1, “Supported properties” for more information.
