Ifnecessary, you can manually download and install the latest version of SSM Agent on your Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) instance for Windows Server by using the following procedure. The commands provided in this procedure can also be passed to Amazon EC2 instances as scripts through user data.

SSM Agent requires Windows PowerShell 3.0 or later to run certain AWS Systems Manager documents (SSM documents) on Windows Server instances (for example, the legacy AWS-ApplyPatchBaseline document). Verify that your Windows Server instances are running Windows Management Framework 3.0 or later. This framework includes Windows PowerShell. For more information, see Windows Management Framework 3.0.


This procedure applies to installing or reinstalling SSM Agent on an EC2 instance for Windows Server. If you need to install the agent on an on-premises server or a virtual machine (VM) so it can be used with Systems Manager, see How to install the SSM Agent on hybrid Windows nodes.


region represents the identifier for an AWS Region supported by AWS Systems Manager, such as us-east-2 for the US East (Ohio) Region. For a list of supported region values, see the Region column in Systems Manager service endpoints in the Amazon Web Services General Reference.


Run the following three PowerShell commands in order. These commands allow you to download SSM Agent without adjusting Internet Explorer (IE) Enhanced Security settings, and then install the agent and remove the installation file.


Server: The server is the computer that runs the MySQL server program and stores the files and the database. In a small office, it may be the same computer as the office server, but it does not have to be. We recommend having a dedicated server to protect data. A basic server could be a workstation, but this is more susceptible to issues, for example if you browse the internet, receive emails, etc.


Older computers: An oldercomputer slower than 1 GHz will probably not be able to run Windows.Also a computer that old will probably be deficient in memory, video,and hard drive. Memory for older computers is significantly more expensive,and it is usually more cost effective to buy a new $800 computer thanto put a few hundred dollars into an older computer to upgrade it.


Open Dental (and MySQL) can run on a Windows Virtual Machine/Server. However, if other services also run on the same physical server, these services may use up resources that result in slower MySQL service, and thus slower Open Dental.


Display: See Screen Size

Minimum resolution for Open Dental is 1280x768 (at that resolution hiding or moving the taskbar may be needed to use some windows). We recommend 27" 1080p LCD monitors. We recommend monitors with speakers built in.


Memory: 4 - 8 GB is best. 1 GB memory is absolute minimum.

Open Dental uses approximately 60 MB of memory. The minimum requirement for Windows 8 64-bit is 2 GB of RAM. For good performance, we recommend at least 4 GB and for optimum performance 8 GB. If you run more programs than you have memory, your system will run very slow because it is transferring memory back and forth to the hard drive.


Operating Systems:

All of your machines do not have to have the same operating system. If you are purchasing new equipment, we recommend the newest version of the Windows operating system.


Home editions of Windows are sometimes unacceptable because of connection and networking limits. The best editions are Pro, Business, or Ultimate. Windows 10 S and Windows 11 S are not supported as Open Dental cannot be installed through the Microsoft Store.


Because ofthe large LCD monitors now available for desktop computers, notebooksmay not be the best choice. If you get a desktop computerinstead of a notebook, you get a more powerful computer witha larger screen at a lower price. Also, watch out for mini notebooks with screen resolutions less than 1024x768.


Dependencies can be downloaded from -tomcat-native.html.Which dependencies you need depends upon the Neo4j version.Each version of Neo4j ships with a version of Netty and Netty requires specific tcnative versions.Make sure to install the version that matches your OS processor.For more details, see the Netty support per Neo4j version.


The instructions on this page assume that you have already obtained the required certificates from the CA and added them to the public.crt file.To achieve this, you should concatenate each PEM-encoded certificate, starting from the leaf certificate and moving up the chain toward the root.


If the same certificates are used across all instances of the cluster, make sure that when generating the certificates to include the DNS names of all the cluster instances in the certificates.Multi-host and wildcard certificates are also supported.


If setting up intra-cluster encryption as part of a cluster configuration, ensure that the certificates used on the cluster endpoint support server and client usage.This is because when connecting between the Neo4j servers for clustering, each server uses its own certificate to authenticate as a client on the connection to another server.


Versions before Neo4j 5.0 allow keys to be stored with the old PKCS #1 standard.You can identify them by the line -----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY----- at the beginning of the file.While Neo4j 5.0 can load and use those keys, they are considered deprecated and will be removed in a future version.


For security reasons, Neo4j does not automatically create any of these directories.Therefore, the creation of an SSL policy requires the appropriate file system structure to be set up manually.Note that the existence of the directories, the certificate file, and the private key are mandatory.Ensure that only the Neo4j user can read the private key.


Bolt protocol is based on the PackStream serialization and supports the Cypher type system, protocol versioning, authentication, and TLS via certificates.For Neo4j clusters, Bolt provides smart client routing with load balancing and failover.When server side routing is enabled, an additional Bolt port is open on 7688.It can be used only within the cluster and with all the same settings as the external Bolt port.


Bolt connector is used by Cypher Shell, Neo4j Browser, and by the officially supported language drivers.Bolt connector is enabled by default but its encryption is disabled.To enable the encryption over Bolt, create the folder structure and place the key file and the certificates under those.Then, you need to configure the SSL Bolt policies in the neo4j.conf file.


In Neo4j version 3.5, the default value is OPTIONAL.In the Neo4j 4.x versions, the default value is DISABLED, where only unencrypted client connections are to be accepted by this connector, and all encrypted connections will be rejected.Use REQUIRED when only encrypted client connections are to be accepted by this connector, and all unencrypted connections will be rejected.Use OPTIONAL where either encrypted or unencrypted client connections are accepted by this connector.


Each of the neo4j and bolt URI schemes permit variants that contain extra encryption and trust information.The +s variants enable encryption with a full certificate check.The +ssc variants enable encryption with no certificate check.This latter variant is designed specifically for use with self-signed certificates.


HTTP(s) is used by the Neo4j Browser and the HTTP API.HTTPS (secure HTTP) is set to encrypt network communications.To enable the encryption over HTTPS, create the folder structure and place the key file and the certificates under those.Then, you need to configure the SSL HTTPS policies in the neo4j.conf file and disable the HTTP connector.


To set up intra-cluster encryption, on each server create the folder structure and place the key file and the certificates under those.Then, you need to configure the SSL cluster policies in the neo4j.conf file and test that the intra-cluster communication is encrypted.


The policy must be configured on every server with the same settings.The actual cryptographic objects installed will be mostly different since they do not share the same private keys and corresponding certificates.The trusted CA certificate will be shared however.


The hostname and port have to be adjusted according to your configuration.This can prove that TLS is in fact enabled and that only the intended cipher suites are enabled.All servers and all applicable ports should be tested.If the intra-cluster encryption is enabled, the output should indicate the port is open and it is using TLS with the ciphers used.


In a single instance, by default the backup communication happens on port 6362.In a cluster topology, it is possible to take a backup from any server, and each server has two configurable ports capable of serving a backup.These ports are configured by dbms.backup.listen.address (port 6362) and server.cluster.listen_address (port 6000) respectively.If the intra-cluster encryption is enabled and the backup communication is using port 6000, then your communication channels are already encrypted.The following steps assumes that your backup is set up on a different port.


There are cases where Neo4j Enterprise requires the use of specific ciphers for encryptions.One can set up a Neo4j configuration by specifying the list of cipher suites that will be allowed during cipher negotiation.Valid values depend on the current JRE and SSL provider.For Oracle JRE here is the list of supported ones - -names.html#jsse-cipher-suite-names.


From Neo4j 4.2, Neo4j supports OCSP stapling, which is implemented on the server side, and can be configured in the neo4j.config file.OCSP stapling is also available for Java Bolt driver and HTTP API.


All information related to SSL can be found in the debug.log file.You can also enable additional debug logging for SSL by adding the following configuration to the neo4j.conf file and restarting Neo4j.


This will log additional information in the neo4j.log file.In some installations done using rpm based installs, neo4j.log is not created.To get the contents of this, since neo4j.log just contains STDOUT content, look for the neo4j service log contents using journalctl:
