The PRA Engine for Linux is being deprecated and replaced by PRA capabilities on the Platform Engine, which supports both Windows and Linux. Currently deployed PRA Engines will continue to function normally but all new engine deployments should use Platform Engines with PRA capabilities enabled. (Learn more)
Customers will be able to upgrade their current PRA engines in-place - manually or with a single click (coming soon!) Customers will be prompted to create equivalent Platform Engine sites during the upgrade.

Setting Up a PRA Engines Site

  1. SSH into the on-premises server where you would like to install the PRA engine, and log in with administrative privileges.

  2. From the left navigation menu, click Settings, then click Remote access. The Sites & Engines tab appears.

  3. On the Sites & Engines tab, Click the +Add Site button.

  4. On the Add a Site page, enter a descriptive site name; for example, Secret-Server. You can use only letters, number, hyphens, and underscores in the name.

  5. Click Save.

Naming a PRA Site

Delinea recommends that tenants use the same name for both PRA Engine sites and secret sites. This way, when a user selects a secret, the preferred PRA Engine site is automatically pre-selected when launching that session. Without this practice, users would have to manually select a PRA site, and might select the wrong one.

Renaming PRA Site

  1. From the left navigation menu, click Settings, then click Remote access.

  2. Click the More Actions menu next to the site name.

  3. Click Edit Name.

If you do not see Edit Name in the menu, you do not have the needed permissions to edit the name of that particular site.

  1. The Edit Site Name dialog box appears.

  2. Enter the new name of the PRA site.

  3. Click Save.

If the save fails, an error message is displayed explaining the cause of the error.
