Installing and Logging in to WI

Before Installation

  • Confirm that you have either a Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox internet browser.

  • Extensions applications may require additional hardware and resources, depending on utilization. Consider expanding your resources if heavy use of the application is intended.

  • If you are not using Tufin OS, we recommend that you open a support ticket for a walkthrough before installing an Extension application for the first time. Note the initial setup for all Extensions applications is the same.

  • In SecureChange:

    • Create the necessary workflows before adding them to WI.

    • Add the permission View Workflows tab and configure workflows for every WI user or group of users who use WI.

    • Create a WI admin user with the following permissions:

      • View Settings tab and configure Orchestration Suite settings
      • View Workflows tab and configure workflows
      • Create and handle tickets on behalf of another user (via API only)

      Log into SecureChange with the WI admin user.

If you are integrating a workflow with an ITSM solution, you will find an additional set of Prerequisites after the procedures for installing and getting Workflow Integrator started.

Install Process

You may need to install a new version of WI in these cases:

  • You are installing WI on a new environment.

  • You uninstalled WI.

  • You need to upgrade to a TOS Aurora version that requires a new installation.

Retrieve Installation File

You can download all Extensions application files, either locally or downloaded to a relevant server, from the Customer Portal Download Center.

  1. From the Download Center, select the Extension to download.

  2. Select the method for downloading the installation package: Download to Computer or Copy link (valid for 10m). Using the link requires the server to have access to download from https://tosportaldownloads.tufin.com.

  3. If you downloaded the package, upload it from your local computer to the primary data node to the directory c:/opt. Upload the file as is; do not extract it first.

  4. If you copied the link, run the following command. If the link has expired, get a new link from the Download Center.

    curl -o workflowintegrator-v<APP-VERSION>-k3s.run “<LINK>”
    curl -o workflowintegrator-v<APP-VERSION>-k3s.run “<LINK>”

    where

    • <APP-VERSION> is the version number as seen in the file name in the Download Center.

    • <LINK> is the link you copied from the Download Center.

Procedure

  1. Using SSH, log into the TOS Aurora server.

  2. Create a directory called /opt/extensions.

  3. Copy the installer run file (already downloaded) to /opt/extensions.

  4. Go to /opt/extensions.

  5. Go to the root directory and run the installer file:

    # sh workflowIntegrator-v<VERSION>.k3s.run

WI is installed in the TOS Aurora cluster on the data node.
