Section 1 Introduction Principal Workflow

3BSE034679R4101 15

Principal Workflow

The workflow is divided into three major steps:

• Preparations: Section 3, Preparation provides information on the necessary system preparations, requirements, and considerations.

• System planning: Section 4, System Planning describes how to use a computer to specify the system configuration. Based on this information, setup packages are generated for each node in the planned system.

• System installation and configuration (post installation): Section 5, System Installation describes how to distribute the relevant setup package to a node, where it is used to control the installation and configuration of the necessary software. This step is repeated for each node in the system.

Setup Packages

Setup packages are distributed to each node in the system using removable media, such as floppy disks or a USB flash memory stick. A file server can also be used to load the 800xA System portion of the installation.

Generated setup packages can be stored on a network share on a file server instead of removable media; however, each setup package must be copied to a floppy disk or all setup packages must be copied to a USB flash memory stick. This is necessary for the Windows installation and configuration portion of the installation.

The setup packages must be on floppy disks to install Windows. If Windows is pre-installed, either floppy disks or a USB flash memory stick may be used during Windows configuration.

The basic steps in the workflow are outlined in Section 2, Work Flow.

Software Distribution Section 1 Introduction

16 3BSE034679R4101

Software Distribution

The setup package will also contain information on which media the software is distributed. You can use either:

• DVDs or CDs: DVD is the recommended media type, so that it is not necessary to handle a large number of CDs.

• Network share on a file server: Either set up a new file server or use an existing one. Refer to Appendix B, File Server Setup for more information.

It is recommended to set up a new file server, since it must have exactly the same folder names and folder structure as the distribution DVDs. Refer to File Server Structure on page 88 for more information.

Manual ProceduresNot all installations and procedures can be completed with the System Installer. Manual procedures that must be performed, if necessary, are:

• Visual BASIC 6.• Oracle.• Microsoft Office FrontPage.• User Account Privileges for Building Graphic Displays.• 800xA for Harmony or 800xA for Melody Installation.

Visual BASIC 6

All nodes that use the Graphics Builder, and the Primary Aspect Server node need a Professional or Enterprise Edition of Visual BASIC 6.0 with Service Pack 6.

Follow the installation procedure provided with Visual BASIC. It is recommended to use the typical installation alternative for Visual BASIC 6.0. It is also recommended to use the default values when installing the Service Pack via the System Checker.

Visual BASIC 6.0 must be purchased from ABB or from another vendor and manually installed. Visual BASIC Service Pack 6 will be installed by the System Checker as described under Verifying Base System (Installing Third Party Software) on page 73.

Section 1 Introduction Oracle

3BSE034679R4101 17

Oracle

Oracle 9 server software is required for the Information Management historical services.

Oracle 8 Client software is required if the IM Server (Version 4.1) will interact with History Services on a Unix-based Enterprise Historian 2.2/n server. This is because Enterprise Historian is based on Oracle 7, and Oracle 9 can not communicate directly with Oracle 7.

Refer to Industrial IT, 800xA - System, Installation for instructions on installing Oracle software.

Microsoft Office FrontPage

Microsoft Office FrontPage must be installed on every node to be used to develop Manufacturing Management IForms. The IForm Developer node is used for the engineering of Intelligent Forms (IForms) and other configuration functions.

This software is available from any Microsoft reseller. Follow the installation procedure described in the documentation provided by Microsoft.

For hot fixes related to Microsoft software that the 800xA System software has been found to be fully compatible and functional with at the time of system release, refer to Appendix A, Third Party Software.

User Account Privileges for Building Graphic Displays

Any user that will build Graphic Displays on a node in a domain must belong to the Power User local user group. This is not described in the Aspect Configuration Wizard. Instead, refer to Industrial IT, 800xA - System, Administration and Security for information on how to add users to this group.

If the IM Server (Version 4.1) will interact with History Services on a Unix-based Enterprise Historian 2.2/n server, then the Oracle 8 Client must be installed before Oracle 9. The Oracle 8 Client can not be installed after Oracle 9. Therefore, if there is any intention of using the Oracle 8 Client, install it before Oracle 9.

800xA for Harmony or 800xA for Melody Installation Section 1 Introduction

18 3BSE034679R4101

800xA for Harmony or 800xA for Melody Installation

A local service account must be created and used for the installation of SQL Server and 800xA for Harmony or 800xA for Melody. This account is required on all 800xA for Harmony or 800xA for Melody Connectivity Server nodes in the system.

For information on how to create the accounts, and for further prerequisite installation requirements, refer to Industrial IT, 800xA - System, Installation.

When installing 800xA for Harmony or 800xA for Melody using the local service account, there is a possible error when creating the system. If the User software Settings are set during installation, IndustrialITAdmin and IndustrialITUser are created as local groups and this sets the permissions on the folders. When creating a system logged onto the domain, certain import files will not load due to permission errors.

Security settings must be rerun after joining the domain, via Configuration Wizard > User Software Settings.

3BSE034679R4101 25

Section 3 Preparation

IntroductionBefore starting the system installation, determine and prepare the following:

1. Determine the size and scope of the system being set up, including the number of nodes and clients. This is based on what node types you want to have in the system and how many, and also how many standalone clients and remote clients you want to have. For more information, see also:

– System Overview on page 26.– Configuration Rules on page 29.– Appendix C, System Configurations.– Industrial IT 800xA System - System Guide.

2. Plan the network and domain topology. The network is an integrated part of the 800xA System. The network components depend on fast and reliable communication. For more information, see also:

– Domains Versus Workgroups on page 31.– Network Setup on page 34.– Industrial IT 800xA System - Automation System Network - Design and

Configuration.

3. Make any other necessary preparations. This involves acquiring all the information needed for installation and setup with regard to network parameters, software keys, etc. All installation media must be obtained, and it must be confirmed that all required hardware is in place and meets the system requirements. For more information, refer to Installation Preparations on page 36.

After installation, load the license file purchased from ABB.

System Overview Section 3 Preparation

26 3BSE034679R4101

System OverviewThe 800xA System is a distributed set of server and client nodes that reside on a network.

Server classes are deployed on nodes - a node is an addressable machine (a PC) in a network. For very small installations, one single node can carry all server categories as well as the client parts of the products.

For medium sized systems, certain server functions may be combined on a single node, for example, combined Aspect and Connectivity Server. As installations grow larger, one or several Application Servers may be added to run server parts of the products. Aspect and Connectivity Servers may be redundant.

Applications

In an 800xA System, you can install the following:

• Process Portal A (always installed).• Batch Management.• Manufacturing Management.• Asset Optimization.• Information Management.• Engineering Studio.• HART Device Integration.• FOUNDATION Fieldbus Device Integration.• PROFIBUS Device Integration.• AC 800M Connect.• 800xA for Advant Master.• 800xA for Safeguard.• 800xA for Harmony.• 800xA for Melody.• 800xA for MOD 300.• 800xA for DCI.• PLC Connect.

Section 3 Preparation Node Types

3BSE034679R4101 27

Node Types

Node types can be broken down into the following categories:

• Basic Node Types.• Combined Node Types.

The maximum number of nodes of each type per 800xA System are listed in Generic Configuration Rules on page 29.

Basic Node Types

Basic node types include:

• Domain Server node (not required for single-node systems, or those using workgroups): Runs the Domain Controller and Domain Name System (DNS). Contains matching copies of the user accounts in a given domain.

• Aspect Server node: Runs the aspect directory and other services related to object management, object names and structures, security, etc. Redundant Aspect Servers may be implemented on an optional basis. This is also the Domain Controller and DNS when separate Domain Servers are not used.

• Connectivity Server node: Runs connect services, providing access to controllers and other data sources. Redundant (parallel) Connectivity Servers may be implemented on an optional basis.

• Application Server node: Application servers run the services related to a specific functional area, for example: Batch Management, Information Management, or Asset Optimization. Application Servers require Windows Server 2003 or Windows 2000 Server. Application Servers include:

– Batch Server: runs Batch Management.– MM Server: runs Manufacturing Management (Windows Server 2003

only).– IM Server: runs Information Management.– AO Server: runs Asset Optimization.– Other applications: such as large SoftPoint and Calculation Server

applications, 800xA for Harmony Configuration Server, 800xA for Melody Configuration Server, integrated third party applications, etc.

Node Types Section 3 Preparation

28 3BSE034679R4101

• Remote Client Server node: Provides terminal server functionality to connect to remote workplaces.

• Client node: Runs workplace functionality, such as operator and engineering workplaces, including Batch, MM, IM, and AO Clients.

• Information Management Consolidation node: The Information Management Consolidation node allows for consolidating historical data from IM Servers in other systems on one node.

Combined Node Types

• In order to optimize the cost/performance ratio for a particular installation, certain server functions can be combined in the same node. Depending on what functions are combined, there are different limitations to system sizes. Approved combinations are:

– AS + CS: Aspect and Connectivity Server.– AS + CS + AO: Aspect, Connectivity, and AO Server.– Batch + IM + MM: Batch, IM, and MM Server. – Single node engineering system.

Other elements of the 800xA System include:

• Controllers: Run applications for real-time process control. Controllers connect to the control network.

• I/O Systems: Provide the interface to process transducers. I/O stations connect to controllers, either directly, or via fieldbuses.

• Network and Network Devices: Support communication between the various system nodes, as well as communication outside the system (via plant intranet, or the Internet). The 800xA System uses three networks:

– Control network.– Client/server network.– Plant network (intranet).

All node types except the Domain Server node include client functionality. These clients are referred to as server based clients.

Section 3 Preparation Configuration Rules

3BSE034679R4101 29

Configuration Rules

Configuration rules that must be taken into account when planning the system are:

• Generic configuration rules.• Domains versus workgroups.• Windows XP Professional versus Windows Server (2000 or 2003).• Optimized system configurations.• Engineering systems.

• Any of the following connect services (and no other) can be combined in Connectivity Server nodes, combined Aspect and Connectivity Server nodes, and combined Aspect, Connectivity, and AO Server nodes:

– AC 800M Connect.– FOUNDATION Fieldbus Device Integration.– PROFIBUS Device Integration.– HART Device Integration.– PLC Connect.– PC, Network and Software Monitoring (PNSM).

• 800xA for Advant Master connect services must run in Connectivity Server nodes. It can be combined with 800xA for SafeGuard in the same node, but not with any other connect services.

• 800xA for Harmony Server, 800xA for Melody Server, 800xA for MOD 300 Server, and 800xA for DCI Server must run in Connectivity Server nodes. They can not be combined with each other or with any other connect services in the same node.

Domains Versus Workgroups

An 800xA System installation can be configured either as a Windows Domain or as a Windows Workgroup. It is possible to:

• Use a workgroup with up to nine nodes.• Use an existing domain.• Set up a new domain as part of the system installation.

When the system is configured as a domain, a separate (optionally redundant) Domain Server is required. For installation as a production system, it is recommended that the 800xA System form its own domain. It should not be part of a larger domain, such as a corporate network domain.

The Domain Controller stores and manages information about user credentials and access rights, both for humans and for the system. It provides the Active Directory service that manages user access to a network, which includes user logon, authentication, and access to the directory and shared resources. Every domain must have at least one Domain Controller. For resilience, a domain should have multiple Domain Controllers to support the handling of logon requests and directory updates.

Configuration Rules Section 3 Preparation

32 3BSE034679R4101

All other 800xA System server and client nodes must be configured to be members of the domain. The 800xA System requires the use of static IP addresses on all system nodes.

For details on planning and physical set up for networks and domains, refer to Industrial IT, 800xA - System, Automation System Network, Design and Configuration.

A Workgroup System should not consist of more than a combined Aspect and Connectivity Server, separate Application Servers, and five or six clients. A Workgroup becomes increasingly difficult to administrate as the number of users and computers grows. Workgroups should therefore be considered only for small systems with few users. Refer to Industrial IT, 800xA - System, Installation for more information on Windows Workgroups.

Windows XP Professional Versus Windows Server (2000 or 2003)

Certain server types can run on Windows XP Professional as well as on Windows 2000 Server or Windows Server 2003.

• When Windows XP Professional is used for the Aspect Servers, the system size is limited to nine nodes, not counting Domain Servers.

• When Windows XP Professional is used for any other server, except for the Aspect Servers, the system size is limited to 11 nodes, not counting Domain Servers.

These limitations depend on Microsoft licensing rules for Windows XP and Internet Information Services (IIS).

Server types that always require Windows 2000 Server or Windows Server 2003 are:

• Domain Server.• Batch Server.• IM Server (except in single node engineering systems).• AO Server (in all configurations except in single node systems).• 800xA for Harmony Server.• 800xA for Harmony Configuration Server.

All servers in a redundant group (1-out-of-2 or 2-out-of-3) must use the same operating system.


3BSE034679R4101 33

• 800xA for Melody Server.• 800xA for Melody Configuration Server.

Optimized System Configurations

By using combined node types, it is possible to optimize the system configuration for small and medium sized applications.

• A single node system is a system that consists of one combined Aspect and Connectivity Server node, or one combined Aspect, Connectivity, and AO Server node.

• Systems with up to five clients and limited application size can be configured with combined Aspect and Connectivity Server nodes; combined Aspect, Connectivity, and AO Server nodes; combined Batch, IM, and MM Server nodes; and with server based clients.

• For larger applications, the Batch and IM Servers should run on separate servers, and the clients should also be separate.

Engineering Systems

An Engineering System is intended for engineering only (no production). The same basic configuration rules apply to an Engineering System as to Production Systems, except for the single node Engineering System.

With respect to domain membership, there are two use cases for the engineering system:

• The engineering system is used standalone; for example, in an engineering office. There are three possible alternatives:

– The system can be added to an existing domain; for example, in an office network domain.

– The system can be defined as a new domain added to an existing domain controller.

– The system can be defined as a separate domain with its own domain controller and DNS server, or as a workgroup (i.e. same as a Production System).

Network Setup Section 3 Preparation

34 3BSE034679R4101

• The Engineering System is connected to a Production System and is used for system synchronization. In this configuration, the Engineering System must belong to the same domain as the Production System.

Network Setup

Network configuration includes:

• Client/Server network.

• AC 800M control network.

• Redundant Network Routing Protocol (RNRP). This requires the relationship between IP addresses to be fixed.

During system planning, the default network configuration will be suggested. If changes are required, refer to Industrial IT, 800xA - System, Automation System Network - Design and Configuration for information on network considerations.

The client/server network can be separate from or combined with any control network. Figure 3, Figure 4, and Figure 5 show examples of different network configurations.

Installation Preparations Section 3 Preparation

36 3BSE034679R4101

Installation PreparationsThis section provides guidelines for acquiring the information needed for installation with regard to network parameters, software keys, etc. Gather the required installation media needed to complete the installation, and confirm that all required hardware is in place and meets the system requirements.

Adhere to the guidelines in the following:

• Removable Media on page 36.• Pre-Installed Computers on page 37.• Acquiring Installation Data on page 38.• Refer to Third Party Hardware Products Verified for Industrial IT System

800xA for a list of hardware verified for use with the 800xA System. This document can be accessed from ABB Solutions Bank at:


Removable Media

Prior to starting the system installation, determine the total number of nodes (PCs) in the system (refer to Introduction on page 25).

A number of removable media devices, such as USB flash memory sticks or floppy disks, are needed. If using computers where Windows is not installed, then floppy disks are required. Otherwise, either floppy disks or USB flash memory sticks can be used.

If floppy disks are required, then the number of disks needed equals the number of nodes in the system. If using USB flash memory sticks, then one stick is sufficient. For example, if the total number of nodes is 20, either one USB flash memory stick or 20 floppy disks are required during system planning.

An organization should be in place to manage any domain with assigned responsibilities and methods handling users and security. Additionally, insure that:

• Systems are clean from unwanted third party programs.

• Systems are recently checked for viruses and trojans.


Section 3 Preparation Pre-Installed Computers

3BSE034679R4101 37

Pre-Installed Computers

Pre-installed computers are computers where:

• Correct operating system versions are installed. The System Installer will check for correct service packs and hotfixes, and advise that installation of any of those that are missing is required.

• Only evaluated software is installed. Appendix A, Third Party Software details the third party software that has been evaluated for use with the 800xA System.

• The hardware fulfills the requirements in Third Party Hardware Products Verified for Industrial IT System 800xA. This document can be accessed from ABB Solutions Bank at:


Systems can be installed on either preconfigured computers from Dell or HP or on other computers. The preconfigured computers will have the operating system, required Windows applications, and third party software properly installed and will require no special attention.

Existing computers may not have the correct software installed. On these computers, it is recommended that the computer be flatlined and then letting the System Installer install Windows. The relevant Windows installation media will be required during the installation, and also any required drivers, such as video and network drivers.

The System Installer can only be used for installation on clean systems. If the program is to be used when upgrading, first all ABB software and one Windows components, Windows Internet Information Server (IIS), must be uninstalled.


Acquiring Installation Data Section 3 Preparation

38 3BSE034679R4101

Acquiring Installation Data

Summary of System Configuration Parameters

Use the Summary of System Configuration Parameters dialog to view a list of the network settings to be set up for the nodes in the system. If not satisfied, go back and change the selections.

After clicking Next, the subsequent set of dialogs is used to create Setup Packages.

Setup Package Generation

After specifying the system configuration, the next part is to create setup packages based on the entered information. For each node, a specific setup package will be generated. These packages will later be used to set up the nodes in the system as specified.

Use the Setup Package Generation dialog to select which media type will be used for distributing the setup packages. Available options are:

• Removable media: Floppy disks or a USB flash memory stick. One floppy disk is needed for each setup package. Upon continuing, a prompt will ask for the media location.

• Other (browse): The setup packages will be saved on a server share. Upon continuing, a prompt will ask for a folder location on the server share. If previously selected to distribute the system software via a file server, then save the setup packages on the suggested file server location.

• Single node: No media is necessary when the system consists of a single node. The setup package will be saved locally on the node.

Media considerations:

• If using a server share, each setup package (the files in a node folder) will need to be copied to a floppy disk or all folders to a USB flash memory stick. This is necessary for the Windows installation and configuration part.

• To install Windows in the computers, the setup packages have to be on floppy disks. If Windows is pre-installed in the computers, use either floppy disks or a USB flash memory stick during Windows configuration.

After the media type is selected, the setup packages will be generated.

Setup Package Generation Section 4 System Planning

64 3BSE034679R4101

If removable media was selected, make sure to label the media for each node.

View Fact Sheets

To help setup the system, a fact sheet will be created for each node. Use this dialog to access and print them.

The fact sheets are saved locally on the node used for system planning. It is recommended to back them up to a safe location, such as a server share.

If the creation of a floppy disk fails, the information can be copied to another floppy disk by going to the:

%TEMP%\IIT800xA Setup Package

folder. The information file for the failed floppy disk can be retrieved and copied to a new floppy disk.

3BSE034679R4101 65

Section 5 System Installation

IntroductionAfter the system is planned setup packages have been created for each node in the system, it is possible to start to install the system. The setup packages now should be on removable media, such as floppy disks or a USB flash memory stick.

System installation works as follows:

• Move to a node in the system and use the removable media with the setup package for the node to install and configure the software properly

• Repeat this for each node in the system, each time using the relevant setup package.

If the system will be set up to be part of an existing domain, administrator privileges on the domain are required to join it.

The installation depends on the fact that the setup package has the same name as the actual node name (computer name). Make sure to have the floppy disk or USB flash memory stick inserted during the entire system installation process

When installing from a file server and when the setup packages reside on the same server share as the software distribution, it is only necessary to have the floppy disk or USB flash memory stick inserted during the Windows installation and configuration part.

If 800xA for Harmony or 800xA for Melody will be installed, consider the issues described in 800xA for Harmony or 800xA for Melody Installation on page 18.

The System Installer can only be used for installation on clean systems. If the program is to be used when upgrading, all ABB software and one Windows component, Windows Internet Information Server, must be uninstalled first.

Setting up a Node Section 5 System Installation

66 3BSE034679R4101

Setting up a NodeTo set up a node:

1. Move to a node in the system. Make sure to set up the nodes in the recommended order (refer to Node Order on page 66).

2. If Windows is not pre-installed, then make a silent Windows installation as described in Installing Windows on page 67.

3. Install the System Installer as described in Installing the System Installer on page 68.

4. Configure Windows as described in Configuring Windows on page 69.

5. Verify base system as described in Verifying Base System (Installing Third Party Software) on page 73.

6. Install the 800xA System software as described in Installing Industrial IT 800xA on page 75.

7. Make a post installation as described in Configuring Industrial IT 800xA on page 76.

8. Generate an installation report as described in Generating System Report on page 77.

Section 5 System Installation Installing Windows

3BSE034679R4101 67

Installing Windows

To install Windows:

1. If the computer is not already set to boot from CD/DVD, enter the computer setup and change the BIOS so that the computer will boot from the CD/DVD drive.

2. To avoid any conflicts with system reboots also change the boot order in the BIOS so that Floppy disk/USB drive is placed after Hard disk.

3. Insert the Windows media, and also the floppy disk with the relevant setup package.

4. Restart the computer. Windows installation will automatically start and it will be controlled by the setup package.

5. During the installation, the computer will reboot.

6. When the installation is finished, manually install any required Windows drivers.

– Open the device manager (on Windows XP: Start > Control panel > System > Hardware > Device manager).

– Missing drivers are indicated with yellow question marks or red Xs.

7. Reboot the computer so that the newly installed drivers are recognized and properly applied by Windows. Remember to remove and insert the floppy disk.

8. Install the System Installer as described in Installing the System Installer.

Bootable Windows installation media is required, and any required drivers, such as video and network drivers.

During reboot, remove the floppy disk. Once the reboot process has started, insert the floppy disk again.

To make any change to drivers the password for the Administrator account is required. Windows sets the password to admin. This password can be changed at a later time

Installing the System Installer Section 5 System Installation

68 3BSE034679R4101

Installing the System Installer

1. Log on to the computer with Administrator privileges.

2. The System Installer does not create any special installation account. Instead, create a new user account with Administrator privileges manually (User settings in Control Panel). If the node is to be part of a workgroup, create the account on the node. If the node is to be part of a domain, create the account on the domain.

From now on, use the domain Administrator account for all 800xA installation and configuration procedures.

3. Log on to the 800xA installation account. (If the node is to be part of a domain, then wait until after the last reboot of the Windows configuration).

4. Insert the removable media with the relevant setup package.

5. Insert the CD 800xA SysInstall.

In the Welcome screen, select to install the System Installation Shell. Make sure to also select System Installation Shell in the displayed installation wizard. There are some options on the Welcome dialog. The are:

• Generate log file: To specify that a log file be generated for this installation (recommended), select the check box.

• Copy To Server: Allows the program to be run from a file server. Refer to Appendix B, File Server Setup.

• Browse: Allows browsing the contents of the installation media.

• Exit: Closes the setup program.

• Home: Returns to the original installation screen.

If the node is to be part of the domain, use an Administrator account created on the node until the System Installer is installed. Use the domain Administrator account for 800xA System installation and configuration.

Section 5 System Installation Configuring Windows

3BSE034679R4101 69

6. When the installation of System Installer is complete it may or may not request that the computer be rebooted. After the reboot, the System Installer should start automatically. If the computer is not rebooted, or if the program does not start automatically after rebooting, start the program from:

Start > All Programs > ABB Industrial IT 800xA > System > System Installation Shell > Setup a new System

7. Next, the Windows configuration will start. Use it to configure Windows as described in Configuring Windows.

Configuring Windows

Windows is configured in a series of dialogs where relevant settings are configured first, and then the changes are executed. This is repeated a number of times with reboots in between.

Selecting Netset File

Use this dialog to select the netset.inf file in the setup package.

• If the file is found automatically, its location is shown and it is possible to continue.

• Otherwise, a prompt appears asking for the file location. Browse to the inserted floppy disk or USB flash memory stick.

If using the Start menu, a prompt will appear asking to create a new setup package. Make sure to select the I have created a setup package already, I want to run it to setup this computer check box and continue.

During reboot, remove any floppy disk used. Once the reboot process has started, insert the floppy disk again. If you use a USB flash memory stick, let it remain inserted during reboot.

The System Installer cannot handle network cards with already assigned IP addresses. Instead, network cards will be configured in the same order as listed in the hardware list. Mostly, this is not a problem when they are not previously configured. However, if the network cards are previously configured, then they will be reconfigured in the same order as they are listed. As a result, network connections can be lost. To restore the connections, switch the cords or manually reconfigure the network cards. (Network settings in Control Panel).

Appendix A Third Party Software

Introduction

This appendix details the third party software that has been evaluated for use with the 800xA System. The 800xA System has been found to be fully compatible and functional with this software as of the date of this document. Refer to ABB Solutions Bank for an up to date, comprehensive listing of all software that has been evaluated including service patches and hot fixes released following the 800xA System release. The complete list of software can be found at:


Table 3 lists the Microsoft Windows operating system software. Table 4 lists the other Microsoft software programs that have been determined as needed to properly run and interface with 800xA System software. The tables also detail the service packs and hot fixes that the 800xA System software has been found to be compatible with.

Table 5 lists other third party programs that may be needed with the various 800xA System software packages.

Some of the software is included with the 800xA installation DVDs. In all cases, the affect of any software should be determined for each installation particularly where there may be interfaces external to the 800xA System.

Some third party software may offer a web browser popup blocker. Do not use them with the thin client portions of the integrated applications (specifically Asset Optimization), since these applications open child window browsers to display application data for the user. If a popup blocker is being used on a web browser, disable it during use of these web based applications.

Unless otherwise indicated, Microsoft service packs and hot fixes are not included with 800xA System software. They can be downloaded from:

Appendix B File Server Setup

IntroductionYou can either set up a new file server or use an existing one. It is recommended to set up a new file server, since it must have exactly the same folder names and folder structure as the distribution DVDs, see also File Server Structure on page 88.

If you want to install from a file server, there are three alternatives.

Set up a new file server on the node used for system planning:

1. During system planning, select to set up a new file server. Use a folder on the local hard disk. Do not use a folder on a mounted disk, since it will be regarded as an existing file server. The selected folder must also be public, that is, no specific user privileges or passwords can be required for access.


3. During system installation, the server share will be used as the source of 800xA System software.

Set up a file server manually on a remote server share:

1. Create a remote server share manually on a computer other than the one used for system planning. This server share must be public, that is, no specific user privileges or passwords can be required for access.

2. Copy all files manually from the installation CDs or DVDs to the server share. Make sure to create the correct folder structure.

3. During system planning, select to use the existing server on the remote server share. If you cannot browse to the file server share, then enter an UNC path manually. Do not use a previously mapped network drive.

File Server Structure Appendix B File Server Setup

88 3BSE034679R4101

An UNC path has the following syntax: \\<node name>\<server share>. For example: \\PC123\File Server.


Set up a new file server on a remote server share:

1. Create a remote server share manually on a computer other than the one used for system planning. This server share must be public, that is, no specific user privileges or passwords can be required for access.

2. During system planning, select to set up a new file server on the remote server share. If you cannot browse to the remote server share, then enter an UNC path manually. Do not use a previously mapped network drive.

An UNC path has the following syntax: \\<node name>\<server share>. For example: \\PC123\File Server.



File Server StructureIf you set up a file server manually, the media contents have to be organized as shown in Table 6. <Parent Folder> is the name of the parent folder under which all other folders are organized.

It is highly recommended that you let the System Installer set up the file server for you. Then you do not have to worry about correct folder structure or folder names.
