Installing the Continuum Database for the First Timeon a Standalone System

A first-time database installation on a standalone system happens in two steps via the Database Initialization dialog:

Step 1: Installing the SQL Express database engine.

Step 2: Creating a new Continuum database.

Note: After successful installation, the Continuum Database Initialization dialog automatically appears.



Installing SQL Express Via Database Initialization Dialog

Follow this procedure:

1. From the Start menu, select Programs > Continuum > Database Initialization.

2. Select Stand Alone from the Continuum Database Initialization dialog.

CAUTIONClose all applications on your computer before installation.After SQL Express is installed, your PC restarts immediately. You cannot restart your computer later. Be sure to close all open applications on your computer.

Failure to observe this precaution will result in the loss of your work.

Note: After clicking Stand Alone, it may take several minutes for the data to populate during the first database initialization.



The Database Initialization dialog appears.

3. Select the Create New Database radio button.

Note that Microsoft SQL Server is shown in the DBMS Name field dropdown menu.

4. Ensure that Continuum (default setting) appears in the Data Source Name field.

5. Ensure that (Workstation Name)\SQLEXPRESS appears in the Server Name field. For example, QUALPC217 is the workstation name used in the previous dialog.

6. Leave the Database Name at its default, ContinuumDB.

7. Enter the default login ID, Andover97, in the User Login ID field.

8. Enter your user password in the User Password field.



9. Re-enter your password in the Confirm Password field.

10. DB File Location: If you leave DB File Location at its default path, then you must leave SQL Express at its default path when it is installed. If you browse a different path for DB File Location, then you must browse SQL Express to the same file path when it is installed.

11. Leave the Database Size at its default setting.

12. Enter a system administrator password of your choice into the Sa Password field.

This password must meet Microsoft SQL Server rules for the composition of a password:

The password must be at least eight characters long.The password must not contain all or part of the user’s account name (three or more alphanumeric characters).The password must not contain the following characters: comma (,), period (.), hyphen (-), underscore (_), or number sign (#).The password must contain characters from three of the following four categories:

Uppercase letters (A...Z)

Lowercase letters (a...z)

Digits (0...9)

Non-alphanumeric characters, such as exclamation (!) and dollar ($)

Otherwise you may receive this warning:

13. In the Windows User Name field, enter your Microsoft Windows system user name here. This is necessary with SQL Express. You must have administrative access in order to run the automated scripts that are part of the database initialization process.



14. Enter your Microsoft Windows system password and confirm that password in the Windows Password and Confirm Password fields, respectively.

15. In the Device Information group, verify that the Database and Log names are unique.

16. Check the checkboxes as follows:

a. Create Default List Views - Check this box to import and create list-views (from the ASCII dump file, DefaultListViews.dmp) for all Cyber-Station object classes.

b. Create System List Views - Check this box to import and create list-views (from the ASCII dump file, List.dmp) for system information other than object class defaults (for example, all events).

c. Create System Alarm Enrollments - Check this box to import con-figured system AlarmEnrollment objects (from the ASCII dump file, SystemAlarms.dmp). These define the basic conditions under which CyberStation points go into alarm.

d. Create/Update Graphical Report Settings - Check this box to import graphical report templates. CyberStation supplies many Report templates that include bar-chart templates, pie-chart tem-plates, and trend templates, giving Reports a certain default “look and feel.” If you do not check this box, then these report templates will not be available. For more information on Reports, see the Continuum CyberStation online help.

CAUTIONThe password you enter here is required to execute scheduled SQL Server tasks. Should you later change your Windows password, these scheduled tasks will no longer execute. To correct this, access the Scheduled Tasks in Windows and change their password with the Set Password button in their Properties dialog

Note: The device information and log file name should be unique for each database created. An error occurs, and database creation fails, if these fields are not unique.

Note: Be sure the Create Default List Views, Create System List Views, Create System Alarm Enrollments, and Enhanced Alarm Logging boxes are checked. If you leave them unchecked, CyberStation does not import the necessary dump files. The dump files generate all of the default views, so the listviews and alarms are not created. In addition, faster alarm logging is not activated. The dump file import happens as soon as the workstation is started for the first time after installation and the appropriate files are placed in folders. For more information on Listviews, alarms, and alarm logging, please see the Continuum CyberStation online help.



e. Enhanced Alarm Logging - Check this box to activate an enhanced method that automatically speeds up the process of logging alarms with workstations. Without enhanced alarm logging, configuration of workstation recipients in EventNotification objects becomes more cumbersome.

f. Enhanced Alarm Delivery - This checkbox is intended for a system with multiple workstations. Check this box only if you intend to add more workstations to the system. If more workstations will not be added, then leave it unchecked.

Checking this checkbox guarantees the delivery of alarms to all recipient workstations regardless of their status at the time of the alarm generation. This selection activates special background applications and processes (already installed) that establish an ongoing connection between workstations and the database server, where new alarms are written. Enhanced alarm delivery guarantees alarm delivery even when connections are lost. The alarms are delivered when the connection is restored.

Enhanced alarm delivery provides a suite of diagnostic and troubleshooting tools that allow you, for example, to monitor the status of alarm messages and background alarm delivery processes as well as ping a particular workstation to deliver an alarm message that, for some reason, could not be delivered. For instructions on how to activate these diagnostic tools, please contact product support services.

g. Extended Logging Backwards Compatibility - If you want to use pre-Version 1.7 “old” extended logging, in addition to “new” extended logging, be sure this checkbox is checked.

For more information about extended logs, please see the Continuum CyberStation online help.

17. Click the Continue button.

Note: If the Enhanced Alarm Logging checkbox is not checked, the Enhanced Alarm Delivery checkbox becomes unselectable.

Note: This setting has no effect on BACnet alarms, which can be guaranteed through the configuration of BACnet alarm notifications.

Note: Before version 1.7, you created Plain English programs for extended logs. These programs facilitated extended log tables in the database, one table per controller. In version 1.7 or higher, you must check the Extended Logging Backwards Compatibility box to retain the older method for creating extended logs, while also enabling new extended logging functionality.



The Is SQL Express Installed dialog appears.

For first time installations, you should see this dialog. If, in the very unlikely event, you do not see this dialog, it means SQL Express is already on your computer for some other reason.

If you see this dialog, go to the next step. If you do not see this dialog, and SQL Express is installed, proceed to the next section, Creating a New Continuum Database.

18. Select the Install SQL now radio button and click OK. SQL Express is then installed automatically.

During SQL Express installation, the software checks your computer for certain problems that could complicate SQL installation and/or the creation or update of the Continuum database. There are several different scenarios. For example, third-party software may generate license-agreement issues. For a detailed description of these issues, how CyberStation resolves them, and a list of error messages, please see SQL Express Installation Error Messages.

Note: If you have not already closed all your applications, do so now. Otherwise you will lose your work when your computer restarts upon installation.



If there are no problems, the Select Folder dialog appears.

Accept the default path, or use the browse button to select a directory in which to install SQL Express, and click OK.

19. The Extracting Files progress window appears. The unpacking takes approximately 1 to 5 minutes. Next, the Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Setup progress window appears. This also can take several minutes. After the installation has completed, the reboot dialog appears, which may take up to 60 seconds. Do not proceed until this dialogue appears. Click OK and reboot your computer.

Note: If you left DB File Location at its default path, then you MUST leave SQL Express at its default path when it is installed. If you browsed a different path for DB File Location, then you must browse SQL Express to the same file path. Be sure that the drive you have selected has a minimum of 2 GB of free space available.

Note: Reboot happens immediately. You do not have the choice of doing this later.



Creating a New Continuum Database

Once the installation of the SQL Express database engine is successfully completed, the Continuum Database Initialization window automatically reappears on your workstation PC. Follow this procedure to install the Continuum database:

1. Click the Stand Alone button. The Database Initialization dialog appears.

2. Select Create New Database.



3. Fill out this dialog the way you did in the Installing SQL Express Via Database Initialization Dialog. This includes checking the appropriate items in the database initialization checkboxes.

4. Click Continue.

5. When the database has been successfully created, the Database Installation Progress screen appears with the message:

Database successfully created.

6. Click the OK button and proceed to Setting Up Workstation Parameters.

Note: The device information and log file name should be unique for each database created. An error occurs, and database creation fails, if these fields are not unique.

Note: The Database Size automatically expands as needed. The SQL Express database engine plus its databases are limited to 2 GB in file size.

Note: If you receive an error, please re-verify database name, server name, login id, password, and database file location path. If errors persist, please contact product support services.



Updating a Standalone Continuum Database

To update a Continuum database from a previous version on a standalone system, perform this procedure.

1. Click Stand Alone on the Continuum Database Initialization dialog.

2. The Database Initialization dialog appears.

3. Select Microsoft SQL Server in the DBMS Name dropdown menu.

CAUTIONClose all applications on your computer before installation.After SQL Express is installed, your PC restarts immediately. You cannot restart your computer later. Be sure to close all open applications on your computer.

Failure to observe this precaution will result in the loss of your work.

Note: The update process documented here applies to those upgrading from CyberStation v1.81 (or lower). If you are upgrading from v1.82 or v1.90, the process may be slightly different since SQL Express is already installed. If so, you should fill in the required fields that appear.



4. Be sure that Continuum (default setting) appears in the Data Source Name field.

5. Be sure that (local) (default setting) appears in the Server Name field.

6. Be sure that ContinuumDB (default setting) appears in the Database Name field.

7. Enter your login ID, Andover97, in the User Login ID field.

8. Enter your password in the User Password field, and confirm that password by reentering it in the Confirm Password field.

9. Enter a Microsoft system administrator Sa Password.

10. In the Windows User Name field, enter your Microsoft Windows system user name here. This is needed with SQL Express.You need administrative access here in order to run the automated scripts that are part of the database upgrade process

11. Enter your Microsoft Windows system password and confirm that password in the Windows Password and Confirm Password fields, respectively.

12. Leave the Create Default List Views, Create System List Views, and Create System Alarm Enrollments checkboxes unchecked.

Note: If, in the previous version, you accepted the pre-1.92 default password, Pyramid97, you must enter Pyramid97 here.

Note: During an upgrade, be aware that you must enter an Sa Password. Ensure that you manually enter the default Sa Password of adminadmin. This is particularly important for those upgrading from v1.81 (or lower) who may not be familiar with this step from previous upgrades.

CAUTIONThe password you enter here is required to execute scheduled SQL Server tasks. Should you later change your Windows password, these scheduled tasks will no longer execute. To correct this, access the Scheduled Tasks in Windows and change their password with the Set Password button in their Properties dialog

Note: During an upgrade, these checkboxes should remain unchecked so that the ListView and alarm files that were created during the initial installation of CyberStation are not overwritten.



13. Leave the Enhanced Alarm Logging checkbox checked.

14. Be sure the Create/Update Graphical Report Settings checkbox is checked.

For an explanation, see the procedure Installing the Continuum Database for the First Time on a Standalone System.

15. If you want to use pre-Version 1.7 “old” extended logging, in addition to “new” extended logging, be sure the Extended Logging Backwards Compatibility checkbox is checked.

For an explanation, see the procedure in Installing the Continuum Database for the First Time on a Standalone System.

16. Be sure the Enhanced Alarm Delivery checkbox is checked if you want to guarantee the delivery of alarms to all recipient workstations regardless of their status at the time of the alarm generation.

For an explanation, see the procedure in Installing the Continuum Database for the First Time on a Standalone System.

You must install the SQL Express database engine for an upgrade. Select the Install SQL now radio button, and click OK. SQL Express is then installed automatically.

During SQL Express installation, the software checks your computer for certain problems that could complicate SQL installation and/or the creation or update of the Continuum database. There are several different scenarios. For example, third-party software may generate license-agreement issues. For a detailed description of these issues, how CyberStation resolves them, and a list of error messages, please see SQL Express Installation Error Messages.

If there are no problems, the Select Folder dialog appears.

Accept the default path, or use the browse button to select a directory in which to install SQL Express, and click OK.

19. The Extracting Files progress window appears. The unpacking takes approximately 1 to 5 minutes. Next, the Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Setup progress window appears. This also can take several minutes. After the installation has completed, the reboot dialog appears. Click OK and reboot your computer.

Note: If you left DB File Location at its default path, then you MUST leave SQL Express at its default path when it is installed. If you browsed a different path for DB File Location, then you must browse SQL Express to the same file path. Be sure that the drive you have selected has a minimum of 2 GB of free space available.

Note: Reboot happens immediately. You do not have the choice of doing this later.



After rebooting, a screen telling you that SQL script is running then appears. This screen closes automatically after a few minutes.

After your PC finishes rebooting, and the database is successfully updated, the Continuum Database Initialization dialog reappears.

20. Click Stand Alone.

The Database Initialization dialog reappears:

21. Reenter your User Password and Confirm Password fields. (See Step 8.)

22. Reenter your Sa Password. (See Step 9.)

23. Make sure that the Update Existing Database radio button is selected.



24. Click Continue. The Database Installation Progress screen appears with the message:

Database successfully updated.

25. Click OK and proceed to Setting Up Workstation Parameters.

Installing the Continuum Database on Multi-User LANs

The following procedure provides instructions for installing the Continuum database on a multi-user (LAN) system. The procedure covers the following sections:

Verifying SQL Server Is RunningInstalling the Continuum Database for the First Time on a Multi-User LAN SystemUpdating a Multi-User LAN Continuum Database

Microsoft SQL Server must be installed before you install the Continuum database on a LAN system. (See also Appendix A, Installing and Upgrading SQL Server 2008, Appendix B, Installing SQL Server 2005, or Appendix C, Installing SQL Server 2000.)




Verifying SQL Server Is Running

From the LAN database server, where the database is actually running, perform the following procedure to verify that Microsoft SQL Server is running. (See also Appendix A, Installing and Upgrading SQL Server 2008, Appendix B, Installing SQL Server 2005, or Appendix C, Installing SQL Server 2000.)

1. On the system database server, verify that the MSSQL server is running by ensuring the SQL Server Service Manager icon

appears in the system tool tray (lower right-hand corner of the screen).

2. If error messages appear, double click the SQL Server Service Manager icon to invoke the SQL Server Service Manager dialog, shown on the next page.

3. From the Services field dropdown menu in the SQL Server Service Manager dialog, select SQLServerAgent.

4. Check the Auto-start service when OS starts checkbox.

5. Check the configuration of the SQLServerAgent.

Note: If the SQL Server Service Manager icon is not present in the system tool tray, try running it from the Windows Start menu. Click Start, select Programs and Startup. The SQL Server Service Manager icon should be there. If this does not work, contact Schneider Electric Product Support Services for assistance.



Note: If the SQLServerAgent has not been installed, or has been configured incorrectly (such as incorrect authentication) a variety of error messages (such as “Could not start the SQLServerAgent” or “Could not open the service due to insufficient access permissions”) may appear. To correct this situation, perform the next three steps.



Installing the Continuum Database for the First Timeon a Multi-User LAN System

Returning to the CyberStation machine, after successfully completing the installation of the CyberStation files and restarting the machine, the Continuum Database Initialization dialog automatically appears.

Follow this procedure:

1. Select Server.

The Database Initialization dialog, shown on the next page, appears.

2. Select the Create New Database radio button.

Note: Microsoft SQL Server 2000, SQL Server 2005, or SQL Server 2008 must have already been installed on the remote database server in your multi-user (LAN) system. See Appendix A, Installing and Upgrading SQL Server 2008, Appendix B, Installing SQL Server 2005, or Appendix C, Installing SQL Server 2000.

Note: After you click Server, it may take several minutes for the data to populate during the first database initialization.



Note that Microsoft SQL Server is shown in the DBMS Name field dropdown menu.


4. Enter the network name of the computer that is running Microsoft SQL Server in the Server Name field.

5. In the Database Name field, leave the default setting ContinuumDB.

6. Enter your login ID (or Andover97) in the User Login ID field.

7. Enter your password in the User Password field.

8. Re-enter your password in the Confirm Password field to confirm.

9. In the DB File Location field, enter the database file path if it is different than the default path.



10. In the Database Size field, leave the default setting, 50 MB. The database will automatically expand.

11. Enter a system administrator password into the Sa Password field, for the person who will have access to SQL Server. This password should match the one entered when SQL was installed on the database server.

You must enter an Sa Password for all revisions of Microsoft SQL Server 2005 and above. In addition, that password should match the following SQL Server password composition rules:

The password must be at least eight characters long.The password must not contain all or part of the user’s account name (three or more alphanumeric characters).The password must not contain the following characters: comma (,), period (.), hyphen (-), underscore (_), or number sign (#).The password must contain characters from three of the following four categories:

Uppercase letters (A...Z)

Lowercase letters (a...z)

Digits 0...9

Non-alphanumeric characters, such as exclamation (!) and dollar ($)



Otherwise you may receive this warning:

12. Check the checkboxes as follows:

a. Create Default List Views - Check this box to import and create list-views (from the ASCII dump file, DefaultListViews.dmp) for all Cyber-Station object classes.

b. Create System List Views - Check this box to import and create list-views (from the ASCII dump file, List.dmp) for system information other than object class defaults (for example, all events).

c. Create System Alarm Enrollments - Check this box to import con-figured system AlarmEnrollment objects (from the ASCII dump file, SystemAlarms.dmp). These define the basic conditions under which CyberStation points go into alarm.

Note: Be sure the Create Default List Views, Create System List Views, Create System Alarm Enrollments, and Enhanced Alarm Logging boxes are checked. If you leave them unchecked, CyberStation does not import the necessary dump files. The dump files generate all of the default views, so the listviews and alarms are not created. In addition, faster alarm logging is not activated. The dump file import happens as soon as the workstation is started for the first time after installation and the appropriate files are placed in folders.

For more information on Listviews, alarms, and alarm logging, please see the Continuum CyberStation online help.



d. Create/Update Graphical Report Settings - Check this box to import graphical report templates. CyberStation supplies many Report templates that include bar-chart templates, pie-chart tem-plates, and trend templates, giving Reports a certain default “look and feel.” If you do not check this box, then these report templates will not be available. For more information on Reports, see the Continuum CyberStation online help.

e. Enhanced Alarm Logging - Check this box to activate an enhanced method that automatically speeds up the process of logging alarms with workstations. Without enhanced alarm logging, configuration of workstation recipients in EventNotification objects becomes more cumbersome.

f. Enhanced Alarm Delivery - This checkbox is intended for a system with multiple workstations. Check this box only if you intend to add more workstations to the system. If more workstations will not be added, then leave it unchecked.

Checking this checkbox guarantees the delivery of alarms to all recipient workstations regardless of their status at the time of the alarm generation. This selection activates special background applications and processes (already installed) that establish an ongoing connection between workstations and the database server, where new alarms are written. Enhanced alarm delivery guarantees alarm delivery even when connections are lost. The alarms are delivered when the connection is restored.

Enhanced alarm delivery provides a suite of diagnostic and troubleshooting tools that allow you, for example, to monitor the status of alarm messages and background alarm delivery processes as well as ping a particular workstation to deliver an alarm message that for some reason could not be delivered. For instructions on how to activate these diagnostic tools, please contact product support services.

g. Extended Logging Backwards Compatibility - If you want to use pre-Version 1.7 “old” extended logging, in addition to “new” extended logging, be sure this checkbox is checked.


Note: This setting has no effect on BACnet alarms which can be guaranteed through the configuration of BACnet alarm notifications.

Note: Before version 1.7, you created Plain English programs for extended logs. These programs facilitated extended log tables in the database, one table per controller. In version 1.7 or higher, you must check the Extended Logging Backwards Compatibility box to retain the older method for creating extended logs, while also enabling new extended logging functionality.



For more information about extended logs, please see the Continuum CyberStation online help.


14. When the database is successfully created, the Database Installation Progress screen appears with the message:

Database successfully created.

Updating a Multi-User LAN Continuum Database

To update a multi-user Continuum database from a previous version of CyberStation, follow this procedure:

1. Click Server on the Continuum Database Initialization dialog. The Database Initialization dialog appears.



2. Select the Update Existing Database radio button.


4. Be sure that the correct database path for your site, usually the server name, appears in the Server Name field.

5. Be sure that Continuum DB (default setting) appears in the Database Name field.

6. In the User Login ID field, be sure that either your Login ID or the default, Andover97, appears.

7. Enter your user password in the User Password field, and confirm that password by reentering it in the Confirm Password field.

If, in the previous version, you accepted the default, Pyramid97, you must enter Pyramid97 again here.

8. Leave the Create Default List Views, Create System List Views, and Create System Alarm Enrollments checkboxes unchecked.

9. Enter a system administrator password of your choice (required) into the Sa Password field, for the person who will have access to SQL Server. This password must meet Microsoft SQL Server rules for the composition of a password as listed previously on page 49.

10. Leave the Enhanced Alarm Logging checkbox checked.

11. If you want to use graphical reports, be sure the Create/Update Graphical Report Settings checkbox is checked. Refer to Installing the Continuum Database for the First Time on a Multi-User LAN System.

12. If you want to use pre-Version 1.7 “old” extended logging, in addition to “new” extended logging, be sure the Extended Logging Backwards Compatibility checkbox is checked. See

Note: During an upgrade, these checkboxes should remain unchecked so that the ListView and alarm files that were created during the initial installation of CyberStation are not overwritten.



Installing the Continuum Database for the First Time on a Multi-User LAN System.

13. Be sure the Enhanced Alarm Delivery checkbox is checked if you want to guarantee the delivery of alarms to workstations in real time.


15. When the database has been successfully updated, the Database Installation Progress screen appears with the message:

Database successfully updated.

16. Click OK and proceed to Setting Up Workstation Parameters, below.

Note: If the Enhanced Alarm Logging checkbox is not checked, the Enhanced Alarm Delivery checkbox becomes unselectable. See Installing the Continuum Database for the First Time on a Multi-User LAN System.



Setting Up Workstation Parameters

Setting up workstation parameters is the final CyberStation installation procedure. Go to the Continuum Database Initialization dialog.

1. Click Workstation.

The Workstation Configuration dialog, shown on the next page, appears.

2. Select the Workstation tab.

3. In the Workstation Name field, enter a name for the workstation.

The following rules apply:

The name can be up to 16 characters.Be sure that the workstation name starts with an alphabetic character (A-Z) and only contains alphanumeric characters, underscores (_), or periods (.) For example: Engws



The name you supply here can be changed to a Windows standard long file name after starting the software.

4. In the Folder Name field, enter the same workstation name (above) followed by the word “Folder”. Avoid using spaces. For example: EngFolder

This name can also be changed to a Windows standard long file name after starting the CyberStation software.

5. All workstations require an ID. If you have a BACnet system, in the Device Node ID field, enter the BACnet ID for the workstation. (Each workstation requires a unique BACnet ID number.) It can be any unique ID number between 1 and 4194302. Survey your site and consult your network administrator before setting this ID to be sure that there are no conflicts.

Note: In a BACnet network, this ID is unique for workstations and controllers alike and is vendor-independent.

Note: The Device Node ID number must be recorded for future reference.



6. In the Network ID field, enter the EnergyNet ID number assigned for the workstation. The ID number must be between 191 and 254 and is usually assigned by the site administrator. The Network ID number should be recorded for future reference.

7. Select the Database tab.

8. Verify that the fields on the Database tab contain the correct information. This is the information that you entered during the database initialization procedure (for standalone and multi-user) earlier in this guide.

9. Click OK to return to the Continuum Database Initialization dialog.

10. Click Close to complete the CyberStation installation.

Note: If you have exceeded 64 workstations, set the Network ID to 0 and set the Device ID to a unique number.




CyberStation Video System Upgrades

If you are upgrading from a pre-1.92 version of CyberStation, the Learn All Video Servers dialog appears at the completion of the database initialization process. You must learn your video servers in order to see cameras.

1. Click Yes to learn all servers and cameras now, or No to learn them later in Video Administrator.

It is recommended that you learn video servers and cameras now since it is more efficient to learn them all at once rather than learning them individually later.

If you click Yes, the Learn All Video Servers - Status dialog, shown on the next page, displays. It shows a count of the servers and cameras as they are learned.

2. Click Close to stop the learn process at any time.

The video servers and cameras will then be in a partially-learned state- with only those servers and cameras that have been learned to that point displaying in the Learn All Video Servers - Status dialog.

Note: Should you choose not to learn servers and cameras now, you will need to learn them later in Video Administrator. For more information on learning cameras, see the Video Administrator Settings tab in the CyberStation online help.



Workstation Time Synchronization

CyberStation bases many of its decisions on the current time of day. If your workstations are not synchronized, problems can occur with events and alarms.

The following examples illustrate a simple Windows command that, when executed as a batch file, will synchronize your workstations to a known time standard.

Note: If your video system is unstable, you may receive an ERROR:SERVERNAME message during the learn process. Should this occur, ensure that your system is stable and then perform a single Learn Cameras operation for that server. For more information, see the Video Server Editor - General Tab in the CyberStation online help.



Your system should be designed so that one of your PCs is designated as the time standard from which all operations are synchronized. This standard could be the time from your file server or a specific PC on your network that is specifically designated as a “time server”.

The NET TIME Windows system command can be used to synchronize the workstation to any computer or the domain time.

The syntax for this command is:

NET TIME [\\computername | /DOMAIN: domainname]] [/SET] [/y]

Example: NET TIME \\workstation1 /SET /y

where workstation1 would be the name of the computer to which you are synchronizing time.

Type NET TIME /? at the DOS prompt to see this syntax.

It is best to create a DOS batch file with this command and place it in the workstation’s startup file. That way, during power-up, all of the other workstations you want will be synchronized with the time standard established by workstation1.



Controller Time Synchronization

Once the workstation time has been synchronized, the controller time needs to be synchronized. To synchronize the time across all controllers, enter the following fallthru Plain English program in your CyberStation:

IF Minute = 3 THEN GOTO SetTime ELSE STOP

SetTime:SET <network name>\<CX Name>\Date to DateSTOP

E:Stop

If this program has been added as a trigger reference in the system variable’s object editor (Triggers tab), the Minute system variable triggers this program. It should be written on only one workstation, and only for the controller with the lowest AccNetID on the network.

CyberStation Remote Communications Installation

Before CyberStation remote communications can be used, you must install and configure Windows XP or Windows Vista Phone and Modem options. The workstation handling remote access services (RAS) must have a modem installed.

See the Andover Continuum Remote Communication Configuration Guide, 30-3001-814, which explains remote installation and configuration issues.

Note: RAS functionality is not supported in Microsoft Vista.



Starting and Stopping CyberStation

The following procedures show new CyberStation users how to enter and exit the system from their workstation PCs.

Appendix C: Installing SQL Server 2000Windows Authentication

Authentication Modes

Microsoft SQL Server can operate in one of two security (authentication) modes:

Windows Authentication Mode (Windows Authentication) Windows Authentication mode allows a user to connect through a Microsoft Windows user account when using CyberStationOR:

Mixed Mode (Windows Authentication and SQL Server Authentication) when using CyberStation or web.Client

Mixed Mode allows users to connect to an instance of SQL Server using either Windows Authentication or SQL Server Authentication. Users who connect through a Windows user account can use trusted connections in either Windows Authentication Mode or Mixed Mode.

SQL Server Authentication is provided for backwards compatibility. For example, if you create a single Windows group and add all necessary users to that group, you need to grant the group login rights to SQL Server and access to any necessary databases.

Windows Authentication

When a user connects through a Windows user account, SQL Server re-validates the account name and password by calling back to Windows for the information.

SQL Server achieves login security integration with Windows by using the security attributes of a network user to control login access. A user’s network security attributes are established at network login time and are validated by a Windows domain controller. When a network user tries to connect, SQL Server uses Windows-based facilities to determine the validated network user name. SQL Server then verifies the person’s identity and permits or denies login access based on that network user name alone, without requiring a separate login name and password.

Note: You cannot use Windows Authentication Mode if you use web.Client



Login security integration operates over any supported network protocol in SQL Server.

Windows Authentication has certain benefits over SQL Server Authentication, primarily because of its integration with the Windows security system. Windows security provides more features, such as secure validation and password encryption, auditing, password expiration, minimum password length, and account lockout after multiple invalid login requests.

Because Windows users and groups are maintained only by Windows, SQL Server reads information about a user’s membership in groups when the user connects. If changes are made to the accessibility rights of a connected user, the changes become effective the next time the user connects to an instance of SQL Server or logs on to Windows, depending on the type of change.

Note: If a user attempts to connect to an instance of SQL Server by providing a blank login name, SQL Server uses Windows Authentication. Additionally, if a user attempts to connect to an instance of SQL Server configured for Windows Authentication Mode by using a specific login, the login is ignored and Windows Authentication is used.


Appendix C: Installing SQL Server 2000SQL Server Authentication

SQL Server Authentication

When a user connects with a specified login name and password from a nontrusted connection, SQL Server performs the authentication itself by checking to see if an SQL Server login account has been set up and if the specified password matches the one previously recorded. If SQL Server does not have a login account set, authentication fails and the user receives an error message. SQL Server Authentication is provided for backwards compatibility because applications written for SQL Server version 7.0 or earlier may require the use of SQL Server logins and passwords.

SQL Server Authentication may also be required for connections with clients other than Windows clients.

Upgrading SQL Server 7.0 to SQL Server 2000

1. Insert the Microsoft SQL Server 2000 CD for the edition to which you want to upgrade, into your CD-ROM drive. If the CD does not autorun, double-click Autorun.exe in the root directory of the compact disc.

Note: When connecting to an instance of SQL Server running on Windows using Named Pipes, the user must have permission to connect to the Windows Named Pipes IPC, \\<computername>\IPC$. If the user does not have permission to connect, it is not possible to connect to an instance of SQL Server using Named Pipes unless either the Windows guest account on the computer is enabled (disabled by default), or the permission “access this computer from the network” is granted to the person’s user account.

CAUTION

If this version upgrade procedure overwrites your Microsoft® SQL Server™ 7.0 installation, the installation no longer exist on your computer. In addition, previous registry settings are removed. For example, after upgrading you will need to re-register your servers.To restore the SQL Server 7.0 installation, you must first back up and uninstall SQL Server 2000, perform a complete reinstall of the SQL Server 7.0 files, and then restore your backed-up SQL Server 7.0 databases.




2. Select SQL Server 2000 Components, then select Install Database Server. Setup then prepares the SQL Server Installation Wizard. At the Welcome screen, click Next.

3. In Computer Name dialog, Local Computer is the default option and the local computer name appears in the field. Click Next.

4. In the Installation Selection dialog, select Upgrade, remove, or add components to an existing instance of SQL Server, and then click Next.

5. In the Instance Name dialog, Default will be selected. Click Next.

6. In the Existing Installation dialog, select Upgrade your existing installation, and then click Next.

7. In the Upgrade dialog, you are asked if you want to proceed with the requested upgrade. Click Yes, upgrade my <text specific to the upgrade> to start the upgrade process, and then click Next. The upgrade runs until finished.

8. In the Connect to Server dialog, select an authentication mode, and then click Next.

9. In Start Copying Files dialog, click Next.

10. In the Setup Complete dialog, click Yes, I want to restart my computer now, and then click Finish.

Note: If you have purchased an edition of SQL Server with more features than your current SQL Server 7.0 installation, the upgrade process will perform both the version and edition upgrade at the same time.

Note: If you are not sure which mode to use, accept the default: The Windows account information I use to log on to my computer with (Windows).


Appendix DSQL Express Installation

Error Messages


OverviewSQL Express Installation Error Messages


Appendix D: SQL Express Installation Error Messages

Overview

This appendix provides a list of error messages that may appear if certain problems occur during the installation of the database engine, SQL Express. (SQL Express is installed or upgraded automatically on a standalone system during the Continuum database initialization process.)

During SQL Express installation, one of three things is detected on your computer:

There is no SQL Express at all. In this case, SQL Express is installed automatically.MSDE 2000 is already installed as the database engine. In this case, SQL Express is installed over MSDE 2000.

However, your computer is also checked for certain rare problems that could complicate SQL Express installation and/or the creation or update of the Continuum database.

For example, a third-party software vendor may already be using the existing database engine. This creates license-agreement conflicts and possible performance problems. To satisfy the software license agreement, Continuum CyberStation must “own” the database engine. In this case, it may be necessary to create another instance of SQL Express for Continuum CyberStation and/or notify the software vendor.

Using another example, the database may be configured incorrectly. In this case, it may be necessary to re-create the Continuum database during database initialization.

In a few cases, it may be necessary to contact your Technical Support representative.

There are many variations of these special cases. If a problem arises, you will receive an SQL Express installation error message that states the problem and provides instructions for correcting it.



SQL Express Installation Error Messages

For every problem that may occur during SQL Express installation, one of the following error messages appears. These messages are self-explanatory:

An error occurred while upgrading or installing SQL Express on your computer. Please contact your Technical Support representative for further instructions.

We have detected an existing incorrectly configured version of SQL Express, which cannot be upgraded. Installation has been halted. Please uninstall this version manually, and rerun Continuum Database Initialization. To uninstall, go to the Windows Control Panel, open Add/Remove Programs, select "SQL Server 2005", and uninstall.

We have detected an incorrectly configured existing version of SQL Express, which Continuum is already using. Another instance of SQL Express will be installed now, and the existing Continuum database will be attached to it automatically.

We have detected an incorrectly configured existing version of SQL Express, which another software vendor is already using. According to the Microsoft license agreement, Continuum cannot use this version of SQL Express. We will now install another instance of SQL Express for Continuum. After the SQL Express instance is installed, a reboot of your computer is required.Please note the new server name, "ServerName\ContinuumSE". Each client workstation will need to have the server name adjusted accordingly to include "\ContinuumSE". For example, a server formerly named "MyServer" is now "MyServer\ContinuumSE".Please use this new SQL Express instance for Continuum only. This satisfies the conditions of the Microsoft license agreement.



We have detected that an existing version of SQL Express is already installed on your computer. However, another software vendor, in addition to Continuum, is already using this existing version. The upgrade will continue, but we recommend you notify the software vendor that it is using an SQL Express instance belonging to Continuum and suggest that the vendor create its own instance of SQL Express to avoid configuration incompatibilities, performance problems, and license-agreement conflicts.

We have detected that your Continuum database is configured incorrectly. To correct the problem, please call your Technical Support representative after the database update for further instructions.
