Whether you are installing CAST Dashboards using a WAR file for Apache Tomcat, or direct using the ZIP/JAR installations, a Java JRE or JDK must be installed on the host server. CAST only supports LTS releases as follows:
Java JRE / JDK | Supported for 1.x | Supported for 2.x |
---|---|---|
8 (LTS) | ||
9 | ||
10 | ||
11 (LTS) |
Info |
---|
Note that Java 11 (LTS) is only supported for CAST Dashboards ≥ 2.6.1 due to compatibility issues with the Lucene indexing system used in the Engineering Dashboard Advanced Search feature (see Managing the Engineering Dashboard search indexes). |
Supported Browsers
This section lists the browsers supported by CAST to connect to a dashboard:
...
Engineering Dashboard requirements
Java JRE/JDK | A See Supported Java JRE or JDK v. ≥ 1.8.x must be installed on the machine/JDK above. | |||||||||
Application Server | Only required when deploying a WAR file: must be installed on a compatible machine. See Supported Application Servers for WAR file deployment above. | |||||||||
Web browser | Required for accessing the Engineering Dashboard. | |||||||||
Dashboard schema | You can connect the Engineering Dashboard to one or multiple Dashboard schemas as follows:
| |||||||||
License Key | Access to data in the Dashboard schema is governed by a license key - see Dashboard Service license key configuration. You must have a valid license key in your possession before you begin. | |||||||||
Roles/authorizations schema | Required only in ≥ 2.1.0-funcrel In ≥ 2.1 only, an interface exists to manage User roles - 2.x and above and Data authorization - 2.x and above - this interface stores all its records in a dedicated schema on a CAST Storage Service/PostgreSQL instance. This instance does not need to be the same as used for your AIP schemas (Dashboard/Measure schemas), however, the required schema is small and therefore CAST recommends using an existing CAST Storage Service/PostgreSQL instance to host it. The schema is created automatically when you start up your Dashboard deployment if it does not already exist. |
Health Dashboard requirements
Java JRE | A See Supported Java JRE or JDK v. ≥ 1.8.x must be installed on the machine/JDK above. | |||||||||||||||||||
Application Server | Only required when deploying a WAR file: must be installed on a compatible machine. See Supported Application Servers for WAR file deployment above. | |||||||||||||||||||
Web browser | Required for accessing the Health Dashboard. | |||||||||||||||||||
Measurement schema | A dedicated schema (the CAST Measurement Service) on a CAST Storage Service/PostgreSQL instance. | |||||||||||||||||||
Dashboard schemas | You can consolidate data into the Measurement schema as follows:

Roles/authorizations schema | Required only in ≥ 2.1.0-funcrel In ≥ 2.1 only, an interface exists to manage User roles - 2.x and above and Data authorization - 2.x and above - this interface stores all its records in a dedicated schema on a CAST Storage Service/PostgreSQL instance.

License Key | Access to data in the Dashboard schema is governed by a license key - see Dashboard Service license key configuration. You must have a valid license key in your possession before you begin. | |||
