Cloud Server Configuration

The GridAPPS-D Platform is easily configured to run remotely on a remote linux ubuntu server. No changes need to be made to the platform. However, it is necessary to specify the IP address for the VIZ user interface.

Configuring Remote GridAPPS-D VIZ

To access the GridAPPS-D VIZ from a local client, it is necessary to specify the IP address of the remote server.

In the ~/gridappsd-docker/conf/ directory, create a new file named viz.config.

The configuration file is formatted as a JSON string specifying the version of the VIZ used and the IP address and port to be used:

{
    "version": "remote:develop",
    "host": "my.server.ip.address:61614"
}

Running GridAPPS-D Remotely

To run the GridAPPS-D Platform with Viz remotely, specify the -r option when starting the platform:

• Running with default release: ./run.sh -r

• Running with develop release: ./run.sh -r -t develop

• Running with a specific tag: ./run.sh -r -t releases_2022.01.0
