Questions & Answers

Are you able to build an Iguana, and then use those config files as a "template" on a new install, so that you always start with a default install (i.e. Users, Roles, Monitoring, etc.)?

Good question! For sure, you can setup a clean Iguana with users, roles and other settings. All these configs will be saved in the IguanaMainRepo and you can use this repo as your template. Simply add it to the working directory when you build the new instance.

Is it possible to extract channels from corrupted iguana installation that cannot be started? (For example - post ransomware attack).

When an Iguana gets corrupted, the only the IguanaConfigurationRepo get corrupted and IguanaMainRepo will be clean. You can rebuild Iguana using the IguanaMainRepo and your channels will be safe. Alternatively, you can export your channels to a repository to securely save them. More on this later in the Webinar.
