    A Step-by-Step Guide for Installation

    Install nginx web server.
    Install OrderHub:

    <INSTALL_DIR>/repository/orderhub

    Here <INSTALL_DIR> is the Sterling OMS installation home directory.

    Extract the orderhub archive by running the following command:

    tar xf orderhub.tar

    Grant the orderhub setup script the execute (x) permission by running the following command:

    chmod +x orderhub-setup.sh

    Make a copy of the oh-setup.properties.sample file as oh-setup.properties by running the following command:

    cp oh-setup.properties.sample oh-setup.properties

    Update the oh-setup.properties file.

    Uncomment the HTML_DIRECTORY and CONFIG_DIRECTORY properties that are applicable to the operating system. If necessary, update them to point to installed web server’s HTML and configuration directories.
    Update the OMS_APPSERVER_HOST property to point to the OMS environment.

             

    Run the Order Hub setup script:

    ./orderhub-setup.sh

    Go to /etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf and add server details:

             

    For https: add Port No., server_name, certificate and certificate_key for user application.

    Add below properties to:

    <INSTALL_DIR>/properties/customer_overrides.properties

    # Order Hub UI

    xapirest.servlet.cors.enabled=true

    xapirest.servlet.cors.allow.credentials=true

    xapirest.servlet.jwt.auth.enabled=true

    yfs.yfs.jwt.oms.verify.keyloader=jkstruststore

    yfs.api.security.token.enabled=Y

     

    Configure JWT authentication:

    Locate or create a keystore.

    To create a keystore run the following command:

    For example:

    keytool -genkey -keyalg RSA -keysize 2048 -keystore jwtkeystore.jks -validity 365 -storetype JKS

    -alias oms-default-jwt -storepass secret4ever -keypass secret4ever -dname “CN=oms, OU=oms, O=oms, L=oms, S=oms, C=US”

    Where:

    -keystore provides the keystore name, for example, key.jks.

    -alias describes the alias name that is configured as part of JWT properties of Sterling Order Management System Software.

    -storepass and -keypass provides the password for keystore.

    Add JVM system startup properties:

    For example:

     -Dycp.jwt.auth.keyStore=/var/oms/keystore/jwtkeystore.jks

    -Dycp.jwt.auth.keyStorePassword=secret4ever

    -Dycp.jwt.auth.trustStore=/var/oms/keystore/jwtkeystore.jks

    -Dycp.jwt.auth.trustStorePassword=secret4ever

    Set property in customer_override_properties file as:

    yfs.api.security.token.enabled=Y

    Start or restart the web server.

    Access Order Hub from the applicable URL:

    http://<hostname>:<port>/order-management

    https://<hostname>:<port>/order-management

     

    Where hostname is the host name where the web server is running, and port is the port number that is configured in the web server configuration.
