Enabling the DataCheck Service

Enabling the DataCheck Service

Use the Management Portal from the InterSystems IRIS instance running on the source system to enable the data checking service and, optionally, restrict connections:

1. Navigate to the Services page (System Administration > Security > Services) of the Management Portal.

2. Click %Service_DataCheck in the list of service names to edit the data checking service properties.

3. Select the Service enabled check box. Before clicking Save, you may want to first restrict which IP addresses can connect to this database source. If so, perform the next step, and then click Save.

   Note:

   When configured to check a mirror, DataCheck uses TLS if the mirror is set to use TLS (for more information, see DataCheck for Mirror Configurations in this chapter). The DataCheck service, however, does not automatically restrict access only to mirror members. If you wish to restrict DataCheck connections from other systems, you must configure the Allowed Incoming Connections for the %Service_DataCheck service.

4. Optionally, to restrict access to the service, in the Allowed Incoming Connections box (which displays previously entered server addresses), click Add to add an IP Address. Repeat this step until you have entered all permissible addresses.

   You may delete any of these addresses individually by clicking Delete in the appropriate row, or click Delete All to remove all addresses, therefore allowing connections from any address.
