CONFIGURING YOUR SYSTEM
By default, each RemoteServ/IS processing subsystem is
preconfigured with the following options:
· NetBEUI protocol
· TCP/IP protocol
· SNMP Protocol
· IPX protocol
· WinFrame® Console
· 15 WinFrame® Winstations for each installed protocol
· WorldDesk Applink
· GlobalVision Agent
(active)
· Computername = CUBIX# (where
# is the backplane group number in the RemoteServ/IS chassis)
· Workgroup = REMOTESERV
· WorldDesk Cluster =
REMOTESE
After applying power to your system, log in using ‘Administrator’ as the user
name, and no password. The system will display the RemoteServ/IS greeting followed by the
WinFrame ® Program Manager.
If your system has not been configured to meet your needs at the factory, make the
following changes to your system configuration:

establish accounts on the Domain Controller.
- Select the Control Panel from the Main program group and then select the Network
icon.
- In the Network Settings dialog, select the Change button next to the Workgroup
Name field.
- Change the name as desired, select OK and when prompted restart your system.
Configure the GlobalVision
Console
GlobalVision Console monitors and reports the status of
other processors running GlobalVision Agent. Depending on how your system is equipped,
GlobalVision Console will be installed on a standalone management processor running
Windows NT Workstation v4.0, or integrated on the Group 1 WinFrame processor.
For systems where GlobalVision Console is installed on a WinFrame Processor:
- Open the Main program group in the Program Manager.
- Double-click on the Control Panel and then Networks icons.
- Within the Network Settings dialog, select TCP/IP Protocol and then the Configure
button to display the TCP/IP Configuration dialog.
- Modify the IP address and Subnet Mask as desired, then select OK and follow the
instructions to restart your system with the new configuration.
You may also wish to modify the TCP/IP configuration as required to support DHCP and
DNS or WINS name resolution.
For systems with a separate GlobalVision processing subsystem:
- Click on the Start button on the Taskbar.
- Select Settings and then Control Panel.
- Double-click on the Networks object.
- Select the Protocols tab at the top.
- Select TCP/IP in the protocol list, then select the Properties button.
- Modify the IP address and Subnet Mask as desired, then select OK and follow the
instructions to restart your system with the new configuration.
NOTE: In addition to GlobalVision Console, standalone GlobalVision processing
subsystems may be used for other applications. It is recommended that prior to installing
other applications the user monitor system performance using the Windows NT Performance
Monitor. Detailed instructions are provided in the Windows NT online documentation
Configure Globalvision
Agents
All RemoteServ/IS WinFrame processing subsystems are
preloaded with GlobalVision Agent. GlobalVision agent must be configured to send system
status information to a local or remote GlobalVision Console subsystem. Perform the
following steps at each WinFrame/GlobalVision Agent processor subsystem:
- Open the Main program group, select Control Panel and then Network icons.
- In the Network Settings dialog, select SNMP Protocol in the installed
software list, then select the Configure button.
- In the SNMP Service Configuration dialog, select the public Community Name
to display the IP Host Address associated with it (default is 100.100.100.100).
- Select the IP address and press the Remove button.
- Place the cursor in the IP Host/Address or IPX Address field and enter the IP or
IPX address for the GlobalVision Console subsystem.
- Select OK and restart your system.
IMPORTANT: For GlobalVision Console to operate properly, the COM2 interrupt
(IRQ) setting must be set to 3 and not conflict with any other device. To view device IRQ
assignments, open the Administrative Tools program group select the Windows NT
Diagnostics icon and select IRQ/Port Status button.
At the GlobalVision Console subsystem:
- Open the GlobalVision program group and double-click on the GlobalVison icon.
In the left pane of the GlobalVision Local Console window you should see an icon
with the IES address for each chassis.
- Click on the IES icon, i.e. IES 1.
- Verify all processors installed in the chassis are displayed and their round status icon
is green. A black status icon indicates no card is present.
Note: It is normal for the round status icon of the GlobalVision Console
processor to be red.
Configure WorldDesk Cluster and Server/s
In the following steps you will be configuring your
system using the WorldDesk Manager utility. If WorldDesk Manager is used on a WinFrame
Server do not leave is running after you have configured your system. It can consume as
much as 50% of processor time. Use it when necessary, or leave it running on a desktop PC.
Assign A Master Server
- Double-click on the WorldDesk Manager icon in the WorldDesk program group.
- Log in to the WorldDesk Manager using the Administrator user name and no
