CyberElements Bastion documentation¶

November 2, 2026¶

The entire documentation is now available in twenty-five languages, which can be selected from the header of every page
Search now finds words whether they are typed with or without accents
Search results that led to a page not found now open the right section
HTML5 Gateways Management: the descriptions of the fields and actions now refer to HTML5 Gateways, no longer to Edge Gateways

Installing a Windows Edge Gateway: the features that reach a server through a site, such as LDAP domains with the Authentication through a site option, are not compatible with Windows Edge Gateways
Configuration of the PostgreSQL node: once all the PostgreSQL nodes are installed, the /etc/cleanroom-vault.ini file, which contains passwords in plain text, is to be deleted
Backing up MSSQL databases and Restoring the MSSQL databases: sqlcmd now asks for the password instead of receiving it in the command, so that it does not stay in the shell history
Manual deployment (Edge Gateway Docker) and Manual deployment (HTML5 Gateway Docker): the certificate passwords are now entered without being displayed and no longer stay in the shell history; as docker inspect still shows them, the deployment with pairing should be preferred

Prerequisites for Docker: Docker on Windows also meets them, by running Linux containers in a Linux virtual machine or through WSL
Deployment of the Edge Gateway Docker and Deployment of the HTML5 Gateway Docker: each command that differs on Windows is now also given for PowerShell, in a tab next to the Bash command

Disk space extension for virtual appliances in the live upgrade of the Mediation Controller: 4 GB are now required instead of 2 GB
Live upgrade of the Mediation Controller and Live upgrade of the Edge Gateway: the systancia.gpg key, downloaded from the Systancia Marketplace, is now installed when configuring APT

The documentation now keeps the language chosen in the language selector (or, on a first visit, the browser's language) and applies it to pages and links, including links received in another language

Commands, paths and values quoted in the text now stand out clearly from the page, in light mode as in dark mode

Troubleshooting the PostgreSQL cluster: new Node desynchronization procedure, to resynchronize a node that is no longer on the same TL as the others, and the matching example of output in Checking the cluster status

The header of every page gives direct access to the contact form, the support site and the CyberElements website
Corrected log locations: CyberElements Bastion client log, password safe and SSL router log on the Mediation Controller, and RDP resources on the Edge Gateway
The lists of services to monitor are completed, corrected and sorted alphabetically, with the description the system displays for each service: Monitoring of Mediation Controllers and Edge Gateway Monitoring
New troubleshooting pages for the PostgreSQL cluster: Troubleshooting the PostgreSQL cluster, Troubleshooting patroni and Troubleshooting etcd, as well as Checking PostgreSQL cluster certificates
Installation of the PostgreSQL cluster: new section on the automatic compaction and defragmentation of the etcd database

Authentication domain: the description of the service account is corrected — this account must be able to reset the password of the domain users for the password change from the user portal to work, and the example now relies on the sAMAccountName, a full DN being liable to cause problems with RDS server management
New How to guides on authentication and notifications: Set up multi-factor authentication, which compares the available factors and covers the one-time password sent by email end to end, and Set up email sending, the SMTP server that notifications, one-time passwords and TOTP keys all go through
New How to guides on publishing and granting access: Configure an SSH key alias and Configure a just-in-time access request, which puts an application behind an approval
New How to guides on operating the platform: Extend the disk space of a virtual appliance, for the Mediation Controller and the Edge Gateway, Check the Edge Gateway connection to the Mediation Controller and Outsource the embedded vault database

The documentation is now published at docs.cyberelements.io, replacing docs.systancia.com: remember to update your bookmarks
This documentation is now a space dedicated to the client hosted deployment: procedures specific to the SaaS offering have been removed from it, including the tabs that used to present both deployments side by side
The product is named CyberElements Bastion, formerly CyberElements Cleanroom
Added a complete reference for the administration console: one page per screen, describing its fields, columns and actions, aligned with version 4.6
Added the compatibility matrix: supported operating environment and prerequisite software versions, for servers, clients and agents
Links to the compatibility matrix now lead to the Compatibility matrix page of this documentation, instead of the private MySystancia area
Outsourcing archive storage: the mount example now correctly refers to the NFS share, and the permissions to apply on the shared directories have been corrected
Reorganised navigation, and a changelog specific to this documentation
The entire documentation is now available in thirteen languages, which can be selected from the header of every page
The documentation adopts the new CyberElements visual identity: colours, typefaces and logo
