3 Administering MicroStrategy Mobile Mobile Design and Administration Guide Prerequisites • This chapter is primarily intended for system administrators. As such, readers are assumed to have various MicroStrategy system administrator privileges. Overview: MicroStrategy Mobile architecture The following diagram shows MicroStrategy Mobile as a part of the MicroStrategy architecture: There are two main components in a MicroStrategy Mobile deployment: • The MicroStrategy Mobile client applications, installed on an iPhone, iPad, Android device, or BlackBerry. The client applications send requests for reports and documents to Mobile Server, and display the reports when they are received. • MicroStrategy Mobile Server, which performs the following functions: Maintains the configurations for devices, and connects the devices to projects on Intelligence Server. 114 Overview: MicroStrategy Mobile architecture © 2012 MicroStrategy, Inc.
Mobile Design and Administration Guide Administering MicroStrategy Mobile 3 Receives reports and documents from Intelligence Server, and delivers them to the iPhone, iPad, Android device, or BlackBerry Enterprise Server (BES). The BES handles all interaction between MicroStrategy Mobile Server and the BlackBerry devices, and may encrypt the data transmitted to the devices. Installing and configuring Mobile Server To install MicroStrategy Mobile Server, select the MicroStrategy Mobile Server component of MicroStrategy Mobile during your MicroStrategy installation. For system requirements and specific instructions on how to install or upgrade MicroStrategy, see either the MicroStrategy Installation and Configuration Guide or the MicroStrategy Upgrade Guide. MicroStrategy Mobile affects several specific areas that may require an administrator’s attention. These include: • Authentication settings for the Mobile Server application, page 115 • Privileges and permissions, page 116 • SSL encryption, page 117 • Client authentication with a certificate server, page 117 • Destination folder for the Photo Uploader widget, page 122 Authentication settings for the Mobile Server application The following instructions apply only to authenticating the Mobile Server application on the machine that it runs on. For instructions on setting up user authentication for your MicroStrategy environment, such as LDAP or single sign-on authentication, refer to the MicroStrategy System Administration Guide. If you are using the ASP.NET version of Mobile Server, make sure that you configure the IIS authentication settings for the Mobile Server application. Otherwise certain reports and documents may display incorrectly or fail to execute. © 2012 MicroStrategy, Inc. Installing and configuring Mobile Server 115
