If RabbitMQ is not deployed on the same server as the RSA Surveillance plugin role, you must copy a certificate from the RabbitMQ server to the server hosting the plugin role after installing or upgrading RabbitMQ.

Before you begin

Install or upgrade RabbitMQ on a separate server from the RSA Surveillance plugin role. For more information, see Installing the Restricted Security Area Surveillance plugin.

Procedure

  1. On the server hosting the plugin role, create the following folder: C:\Program Files (x86)\Genetec\RabbitMQ
  2. On the server where RabbitMQ is installed, navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Genetec\RabbitMQ and copy the certificate called Cert.pem.
  3. On the server hosting the plugin role, navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Genetec\RabbitMQ and paste the Cert.pem certificate.
  4. Repeat steps 2-3 for each server that has RabbitMQ installed separately from the plugin role.
    IMPORTANT: If you are copying multiple certificates from separate RabbitMQ servers, you must rename them. For example, Cert_server1.pem and Cert_server2.pem. Renamed certificates must not contain CA or KEY.
  5. Restart the plugin role.
  6. If a secondary server is assigned to the plugin role, repeat the same process on the secondary server.
