Milestone XProtect Analytics 2.2 – Generic VA; Administrator’s Manual
www.milestonesys.com Page 15 Server-Side Installation
After installation, you can open the XProtect Analytics Administrator application—either from
Windows’ Start menu or by double-clicking the Generic VA Administrator desktop shortcut—and
start configuring your analytics solution.
If You Later Change Transact Port
The following information is important only if you change XProtect Transact’s main server settings
after you have installed the XProtect Analytics software.
Background
The XProtect Transact Server service
uses a specific port number for general
communication with other entities.
By default this port number is 9001, but
it is possible to change the port number
on the Transact Administrator
application’s Server Settings tab.
If you change the port number,
information in the XML file containing the
configuration of the alert plugin installer
is not automatically updated. If you
change the port number, the XML file
must therefore be updated manually in
order not to contain outdated port
number information.
What to Do
To update the XML file, do the following:
1. If using XProtect Professional or XProtect Enterprise, open C:\Program
Files\Milestone\Milestone Surveillance\Plugin\Analytics\pluginconfiguration.xml in
Microsoft® Notepad or another editing tool of your choice.
If using XProtect
Corporate, open
C:\Program
Files\Milestone\XProtect
Corporate Management
Server\ExternalPlugins\A
nalytics.xml in Microsoft
®
Notepad or another
editing tool of your
choice.
2. In the XML file, edit the
port number information
so it matches the port
number(s) specified on
the Transact Administrator application’s Server Settings tab.
3. Save the changes you have made to the XML file.
