Updating the Tableau Server Configuration
If some of the IP Addresses of the computer running Xpress Insight Server change (perhaps because a network card was added or removed), you must update the Tableau configuration.
Update the Tableau configuration:
- Either: re-run the Tableau for FICO installer and (if prompted) select the Modify option. This will take you through the install steps. (Tableau Server will not need to be re-installed, so this should be quicker than the initial installation.)
- Or: run the configure_tableau.vbs script installed as part of Tableau for FICO. This should be quicker than running the installer again.
- This should be run from a command-prompt elevated to have Administrator privileges (if User Account Control is in effect on the system), as these are needed for updating Tableau. While this could be run directly from Explorer, using a command-prompt lets you see the output from the operation, and to check for error messages.
- If Tableau and Xpress Insight Server are to be run on the same computer, then you do not to need to supply any command-line parameters.
- If Tableau and Xpress Insight Server are to be run on separate computers, then the IP Addresses should be passed on the command-line as a single argument, by enclosing the entire sequence of addresses in a pair of double quotes (which should be plain quotation marks rather than the smart quotes used by word-processors and email programs), for example, cscript.exe configure_tableau.vbs "192.168.1.1, 1a2b:3c4d::1"
In either case, you do not need to supply the localhost address 127.0.0.1; this is supplied automatically.
