Initializing the UI

3.1+

Quick Start

To quickly start using the ecs-sync UI, load the home page in a browser (https://{vm_ip}). The default login is admin/ecs-sync. On first login, type in an alert email address (if you won't use scheduling or alerts, this doesn't have to be real). Then click Save & Write Configuration to Storage. That's it! The UI is now ready to use.

Configure SMTP Server for Alerts

NOTE: Alerts only apply to scheduled sync jobs. If you are not using the scheduler, no alerts will be sent.
NOTE: If you are working on a PS migration, please make use of xDoctor's reporting features.

To configure the SMTP server for alerts, you must edit the following lines of the /opt/emc/ecs-sync/application-production.yml file:

grails:
    mail:
        host: localhost
        port: 25
#        username: 'foo'
#        password: 'bar'
#        props: [
#            "mail.smtp.auth": true,
#            "mail.smtp.socketFactory.port": 465,
#            "mail.smtp.socketFactory.class": 'javax.net.ssl.SSLSocketFactory',
#            "mail.smtp.socketFactory.fallback": false
#        ]

Change the host and port values to match your SMTP server. You might also need to uncomment and set other lines if the server requires authentication and/or SSL.
