Activating a tenant

The tenant activation procedure is performed at this stage of deploying the tenant security structure. Tenants are registered with the "Inactive" status in the Integration Server database. As long as the tenant has this status, Light Agents installed on the tenant virtual machines do not receive information about the SVMs they can connect to, and protection of the tenant virtual machines is disabled. To start protecting tenant virtual machines, you must activate the tenant.

The tenant activation procedure is automated using the Integration Server REST API.

As a result of the procedure, the following actions are performed:

• The tenant status changes to "Active". The tenant status is saved in the Integration Server database. You can get information about the tenant status using the Integration Server REST API or by viewing the list of tenants in the Integration Server Console.
• The Light agents installed on the tenant virtual machines receive information about the SVMs available for connection from the Integration Server. The Light Agents select the best SVMs for connection in accordance with the configured SVM connection settings, and protection of the tenant virtual machines is enabled.
