This should be a separate server. Hardware

  6. Windows Server 2003 - 2008R2 (64bit Preferred) • JAVA Runtime Engine 1.6.11+ • Daemon / APPS Listener • SAValet 2.4+ • wIntegrate Server • Datatel Web Services • Microsoft Silverlight • Web Instance • Client Plugin Ver. 2 and 3 Software

  7. 3 – IBM LS22 Blade Servers • Windows Server 2008R2 - 64 bit • 2 x Quad AMD Opteron 2.7Ghz • 16GB DDR2 Memory • 140GB SCSI Drive • JAVA Runtime Engine 1.6.11_21 - 64 bit • wIntegrate Server • Datatel Web Services • Microsoft Silverlight • SAValet 2.5 on External Server CPCC Installation

C:\Datatel\jre6u21) • Setup JAVA_HOME environment variable • Add “%JAVA_HOME%\bin” to the system path • Enter “java –version” at the command prompt to verify installation Java Runtime Engine 1.6.x

  13. Uses same installer as wIntegrate Server • Install in C:\Datatel\Silverlight\_template_sl • Copy template for each environment • New User Interface Client in SAValet per environment • Points to Web Service and wIntegrate Server • Register in IIS by adding a virtual directory • Add “network service;iis_iusrs” to virtual directory permissions Microsoft Silverlight

  14. Create New AAPS Listener in SAValet for each environment • Installed on wIntegrate server in C:\Datatel\coll18\environment • Define wIntegrate server as pre-authenticated server • Select Listeners on UT-UWPR (APP and UI) APPS Listener

  15. Bringing down listeners for backups? • May cause UI listener failure • Batch automation and Windows scheduler • Stop and start listener on UI server • Eg. • net stop "Datatel Production_UI4“ • net start "Datatel Production_UI4" Listener Startup/Shutdown
