Overview

Domain Manager enables you to configure a domain name and associated SSL certificate for your CloudBeaver or Team Edition instance. You can choose to automatically generate a domain at no cost or use your existing domain during product installation or later through the administration interface.

Domain configuration during initial setup

When setting up your server, you have two options for configuring the domain: automatic generation and manual setup. Follow the instructions below based on your preferred method.

Automatic domain generation

When using automatic generation, the domain you create will have the format <deployment_subdomain>.<organization_subdomain>.databases.team. The <organization_subdomain> is initially generated from your company's name as specified in the license, but it can be customized if needed. Also, you can choose any name for the <deployment_subdomain>.

For example, if your organization name is example-corp and you choose production as your deployment subdomain, your domain would be production.example-corp.databases.team. Learn more about domain configuration fields.

In addition to the domain, you receive an SSL certificate, automatically renewed every three months.

To automatically generate a domain for your web server within the local network using a Let's Encrypt certificate, follow these steps:

1. Navigate to the Domain Manager tab during the initial server configuration.
2. Click the Generate Automatically button.
3. Fill in the necessary fields as detailed in the table below.
4. Submit your settings and wait for the domain registration to complete. There may be a waiting period for domain registration.
5. Once the domain is active, you will be redirected to your server at the newly constructed domain, <deployment_subdomain>.<organization_subdomain>.databases.team.

Configuration fields

Field/Button	Description
Organization Subdomain	Specify the Organization subdomain. Automatically assigned during initial setup based on your licence.
Deployment Subdomain (Optional)	Specify the subdomain for your specific CloudBeaver or Team Edition server instance. Instances can be named uniquely, for example production or test.
Server Address	Provide the IP address where your server is hosted.
Delete	Delete the Organization subdomain.

Manual domain configuration

If you prefer to set up the domain manually, using a custom SSL certificate, follow these steps:

1. Navigate to the Domain Manager tab during the initial server configuration.

2. Click the Set Up Manually button.

   

3. Fill in the necessary fields:

   Field	Description
   Domain Name	Enter your custom domain name.
   Upload SSL Certificate	Upload the SSL certificate file.
   Private Key	Upload the private key file associated with your SSL certificate.
   Certificate Chain (optional)	Upload the SSL certificate chain if applicable.

4. Ensure that the necessary DNS records are set to redirect traffic to your server.

5. Click the Add Certificate button to finalize the configuration.

Tip: Provided certificates will be stored in the appropriate directory (e.g., /etc/nginx/ssl/live/ on your server).

Adjusting domain settings in admin panel

Once the application is operational, you can modify the domain settings.

To modify your domain settings, follow these steps:

1. Log in as an administrator.
2. Navigate to Settings -> Administration -> Domain Manager.
3. Select either the automatic or manual configuration method.

Detailed steps for each method can be found in the sections:

• Automatic domain generation
• Manual domain configuration

Deleting the domain

To delete a domain that was configured using the automatic domain generation, follow these steps:

1. Log in as an administrator.
2. Navigate to Settings -> Administration -> Domain Manager.
3. To delete the domain, select the Delete option.

Notes:

• If the Organization subdomain is set, you must delete it before assigning a new one.
• Ensure that local access is configured, as changes might disrupt SSO functionalities.

Modifying the domain

To make changes to a domain:

1. Log in as an administrator.
2. Navigate to Settings -> Administration -> Domain Manager.
3. Update the necessary fields. If your domain uses a custom certificate, click the Update Certificate button to make changes to your SSL certificate.

For existing domains, whether set up automatically or manually, you can switch between the automatic and manual setup types by clicking the Change Type button.

Modifications for automatically generated domain

If your domain was configured using the automatic domain generation, consider the following additional steps and restrictions:

1. Modify the fields under the Deployment or Organization subdomains, respecting the limits on changes.

   

   Note: You can change the Deployment Subdomain up to three times per calendar month.

2. Submit your settings and wait for the domain registration to complete. There may be a waiting period.

3. Once the domain is active, you will be redirected to your server at the newly constructed domain, e.g., <deployment_subdomain>.<organization_subdomain>.databases.team. If the organizational domain has been deleted, you will be redirected to your Server's Address.
