Manage data centers

Data centers are created where the Application servers reside. The System Session ID validates the connection to the relevant data center from the Tenant Management web site and provides a greater level of security for the data center. You can configure only one data center in the Tenant Management System. This is created on installation of on-premise multi-tenancy and the data center cannot be deleted unless you uninstall on-premise multi-tenancy. You can configure additional deployments for a data center and add multiple environments for each deployment.

  1. On the header bar of your Tenant Management System page, click Configuration > Data Centers.

    The Data Centers page appears with the default data center name, (on Premise Datacenter Database).

  2. Click the data center name.

    The Data Center page displays the following details:

    • A unique data center name. The name cannot be more than 50 characters.

    • The System Session ID (maximum 32 characters GUID) to validate the connection to the relevant Data Center from the Tenant Management web site.

    • The production deployment details and licensing information.

    • Additional deployments

  3. You can create additional deployments.
