Configuring Author and Publish Instance in AEM as Cloud Service

 

We will be covering the following topics

• Configuring Author and Publish Instances
• Managing Publication: Delivering Content Updates from Author to Publish to Device

Requirements:

• AEM author instance running on localhost:4502
• AEM publish instance running on localhost:4503

Setting up Replication Agents on Author:

• Go to http://localhost:4502/etc/replication/agents.author.html
• Click on “Default Agent (publish)“
• Then click on “Edit” after Settings to open the Agent Settings dialog box to enter the details.
• In the “Agent Settings” dialog box fill all the information:
• On the “Settings” tab “Enable” should be checked
• Remove all the text from “Agent User ID “
• On the “Transport” tab update The “URI” with the host name and port number
• (For Example http://localhost:4503/bin/receive?sling:authRequestLogin=1)
• And update the “User” and “Password“, which are your publish instance User Name and Password
• (For me: User: admin, Password: admin)
• And click on “OK“
• Now click on “Test Connection“.
• If all are okay then you can see a page with “Replication test succeeded“

• Go to http://localhost:4502/etc/replication/agents.author.html and click on “Default Agent (publish)“
