WebDT Device Manager KnowledgeBase
· Intel Core i3 or above
· 100Mbit or above Ethernet Adapter or above
· At least 10GB free hard drive space
Linux System
· Please make sure the Linux kernel is 2.6 or above.
We tested the WDM2.0 Server on Redhat Linux Enterprise 4.0; its kernel is 2.6.95, and Ubuntu 11.10,its kernel is 3.0.0-12.
· We need change to share buffer in Linux
Open the file: /etc/sysctl.conf
Add a line in this file: kernel.shmmax = 314572800
This line means setting share buffer as 314572800/1024/1024=300MB. You can
set more value if you have more memory.
JRE
Please check whether install the JRE, if not, please install it from the Linux installation
DVD, or download JRE from JAVA.COM, we suggest install JRE1.6.
Database
Please check whether install the database(PostgreSQL or MySQL), if not, please
install it(PostgreSQL or MySQL) from the Linux installation DVD, or download the latest
version.
After installed datatbase, you need make sure that the max connections is enougth. For
example, After installed PostgreSql9.1, the "max_connections" is 100 by default. You
can find the file "postgresql.conf ", change the line "max_connections=100" to

1.1.2
WCM and WDM install steps on one PC
This is mainly for our partners or whoever wants to install WDM and WCM on one PC for
demo or training purpose. For end users, we strongly suggest you to install WDM and WCM
on different PCs to avoid potential technical problems.
1. Please install WCM on the PC first.
2. After WCM is installed successfully, Postgresql 8.3 has been installed at the same time.
3. When you install WDM, a pop up message saying that Postgresql 8.3 has been
installed during installation, please choose to “Continue the installation but the database
won't be installed. Do you want to continue?'”. Please continue the installation process till
it’s finished.
4. After WDM is installed, the “Configuration Tool” application will launch automatically.
a. Postgresql 8.3 has three database as default: esignage,playerlogdb and postgres.
b.WCM uses esignage and playerlogdb as default, and the default port is 80.
c.WDM can connect postgres and set http port as 8080 by the configuration tool. After
set “Database Name” to postgres, select “Reinitialize” tab of Database Item, click “Save”
button to initialize data, and then exit the configuration tool.
5. Besides, WDM and WCM can't use same Tomcat port. (WDM and WCM default
tomcat port of SHUTDOWN is 8005; redirectport is 8443). Please change C:\Program
Files\DT Research\WebDT Device Manager\Tomcat\conf\server.xml server port t of
SHUTDOWN to other ports.
For example: update the SHUTDOWN port from <Server port="8005"
shutdown="SHUTDOWN"> to <Server port="8006" shutdown="SHUTDOWN">, update
redirectport from protocol="HTTP/1.1" redirectport="8443"/> to protocol="HTTP/1.1"
redirectport="8444"/>
6. Once the above settings are ready, start the WDM server.

Backup/Restore PostgreSQL data
1 Backup
1.1 Database
We install WDM2 Server with PostgreSQL, now we give the example with PostgreSQL
to describe the database backup and restore.
1.2 File root path
This is a file library, when backup the database, we must backup the file root path too.
1.3 Log
This is not required in anytime; we should collect the log so as to check whether the
backup data is right.
2. Backup Type
We will backup the whole data, include data/file/log.
3. Backup Frequency
We suggest backup data every week, if the newest backup file is right, we may remove
the old backup file to release disk space.
4. Backup Steps
