Step 1 : INSIGHTS_HOME environment variable:

Ensure that the INSIGHTS_HOME environment variable is set, if not set it using the following commands(for RHEL)

export INSIGHTS_HOME=/usr/INSIGHTS_HOME (change the directory accordingly)

or

vi /etc/environment
1. Add the line: INSIGHTS_HOME=/usr/INSIGHTS_HOME (change the directory accordingly)
2. save the file
3. Run the command: source /etc/environment

Step 2 : Configuration:

Copy the blockchainConfig.json from PlatformAuditing/src/main/resources/ into $INSIGHTS_HOME and make the necessary changes
