Abstract

Run Cortex XSOAR server post-installation health checks for Docker, integrations, commands, playground, reporting, and content.

After you install the Cortex XSOAR server, it is recommended that you verify the installation by checking several systems and running several commands.

If you experience issues with any of these health checks, contact the Cortex XSOAR support team.

Check the Docker Sub-system

Run these commands in the playground.

  • /docker_images: Shows either a list of available Docker images or an empty list.

  • !py script="demisto.results('hello world')": Verifies that hello world is returned, not an error.

    If no Docker images were installed, then the !py script="demisto.results('hello world')" command might take several minutes to execute, and might fail the first time it is run. If the command fails, rerun the command after five minutes.

From the CLI, run the sudo docker info command to check for warnings or errors. Not relevant for hosted service users.

Verify Integration Tests

Create an instance of each of the following integrations and test each of these integrations by clicking the Test button in the integration instance.

  • urlscan.io

  • IPinfo v2

  • PhishTank v2

  • OpenPhish v2

  • Rasterize

Also, run !FailedInstances in the playground, to test all configured integrations and check outputs to see that there are no errors returned.
