Before you can use Horizon Console to configure an event database on PostgreSQL, you must edit a configuration file so that the Connection Server can communicate with the PostgreSQL database.

Prerequisites

Procedure

  1. In the directory where PostgreSQL is installed, open the data/pg_hba file for editing.
  2. Add the following row to the table under IPv4 local connections (replace <IP address of Connection Server> with the actual IP address of the Connection Server):
    TYPE DATABASE USER ADDRESS METHOD
    host all all <IP address of Connection Server> md5
  3. Save the file.

What to do next

Use Horizon Console to connect the database to Connection Server. Follow the instructions in Configure the Event Database in Horizon Console.
