==== Quick start example for Affa 2 ====
You have a SME 7 production server with hostname 'prodbox‘ and IP 10.200.48.1.<br>
Set up a second SME 7 box as your backupserver with hostname 'affabox‘ and IP 10.200.48.2.
<ol></li><li>log into the 'affabox' and install the packages as described above.
</li><li>copy the config helper script sample
cp /usr/lib/affa/jobconfig-sample.pl /root/prodbox-job.pl
</li><li>edit /root/prodbox-job.pl and set
my $jobname='prodbox';
and
'remoteHostName‘=>'10.200.48.1',
optionally, if the remote server port is configured to e.g. 2222 then set
'sshPort'=>2222,
</li><li>save and run the 'prodbox-job.pl' file. This will write the configuration (this makes the database entries and sets up the cronjobs)
/root/prodbox-job.pl
</li><li>generate the DSA keys and send the public key to the 'prodbox'
{{Note box|When initially doing this step, you will need to temporarily enable "Allow secure shell access using standard passwords" on the production server}}
affa --send-key prodbox
</li><li>run the job manually
affa --run prodbox
</li></ol>
==== Configuration ====
The configuration is stored in an e-smith style database. Use the db command to configure Affa.
The jobname is the record key with the type 'job'.<br>To setup a new job with the name 'prodbox' enter:
db affa set prodbox job
then set the properties
db affa setprop prodbox remoteHostName 192.168.1.1
db affa setprop prodbox TimeSchedule '0030,0730,1130,1330,1730,2030'
db affa setprop prodbox Description 'My Production Server'
db affa setprop prodbox status enabled
and so on...
Alternatively you can you use a script as described above in the 'Quick start' chapter.
To verify your work, type:
db affa show prodbox
Finally set up the cronjobs:
affa --make-cronjobs
