RemoteServ/IS - System Build Procedure

Introduction

This document provides the procedures necessary to build a RemoteServ/IS WinFrame server with WorldDesk Server and GlobalVision system management software on a BC5200T series processor. Additional procedures are also included to integrate multiple processors in one or more chassis and perform quality assurance checks to ensure all processors are working properly.

WinFrame Processing Subsystem

Required Materials

Hardware Installation

  1. Install processors and HDDs beginning in group 1 in the ERS/FTII, or starting from the bottom slot in the BOS chassis. If a GlobalVision Processor Subsystem will be installed, it should be in group 1, with WinFrame Processor Subsystems in the remaining slots.
  2. Install RS422/RS232 converter to COM2 of the processor installed in Group 1.
  3. Install the IES modular cord between the IES Supervisor (RS422/RS232 converter module) "in" jack and the IES "out" jack (adjacent to the input power switches).
  4. Set the DIP switches adjacent to the IES Supervisor (RS422/RS232 converter) ports to the "on" position to terminate the ends of the IES. NOTE: The "on" position is to the left for the "IES" ports closest to the input power cables and down for the "IES Supervisor" ports mounted on the input/output panel immediately behind the processor bay.
  5. Set the IES Address DIP to the IES address specified in the System Configuration Guide . If no address is specified set switch 1 to the "on" (down) position. If more than one chassis is being prepared, set each chassis IES Address to a unique number. Refer to Table 4-1 of the Series II Subsystem (ERS & ERS/FTII) User’s Guide, DOC 805A. NOTE: The IES Address DIP is located on the multiplexer inside the drive bay.
  6. Connect the Ethernet ports of all processors to a test network. If more than one chassis is being built for an order, be sure to connect all chassis to the network.
  7. Apply power and immediately press the Group "up" button to initiate an autoconfiguration of the groups.
  8. For each WinFrame processor subsystem, enter the AMI BIOS and set the following configuration parameters:

  2. Verify the IES converter is installed and attached to one processor. Note - The IES Converter is to be connected to the processor adjacent to the chassis power supplies in the ERS/FTII, or the bottom-most processor for BOS-based systems.
  3. Verify the IES Address DIP (located on the mux inside the drive bay) is set to a unique address for each chassis in the order. Enter the IES Address for each chassis on the QA System Configuration Sheet.
  4. Connect all processors to a test Network.
  5. Verify all processors boot when power is applied.

WinFrame Processor Setup

  1. Verify logon works with a user name of "Administrator" and no password
  2. Double-click on the Network icon in the Control Panel.
  3. Verify the list of installed protocols shown on the System Configuration Guide appear in the Installed Network Software list in the Network Settings screen.

Verify network connectivity

  1. Double-Click on File Manager in the Main program group.
  2. Select Disk and then Connect Network Drive.
  3. Double-click on Microsoft Windows Network and verify the workgroup name displayed matches the name specified in the System Configuration Guide .
  4. Double-click on the workgroup name and verify all processor names are displayed and their names match the System Configuration Guide .
  5. Double-click on the processor name where the CD-ROM is installed and verify the share icon CD-ROM is displayed.

Verify WinStation configuration matches System Configuration Guide (per processor)

  1. Double-click on the WinStation Configuration icon in the Administrative Tools program group.By default WinFrame will create two Winstations for each installed network protocol.
  2. Verify the WinStations listed match the System Configuration Guide (number and transport) and they are enabled (icon to the left of the winstation name is red, not clear).

WorldDesk Setup

  1. On the processor where WorldDesk Manager is installed, open the WorldDesk Remote Access program group, double-click on the WorldDesk Manager icon and log in as "Administrator" with no password.
  2. In the Network window, verify WorldDesk Manager displays an icon with a cluster name matching the Workgroup or Domain name, and when you double-click on the icon, all processors/WorldDesk Server names appear.

GlobalVision Setup

  1. 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.
  2. Click on the IES icon, i.e. IES 1.
  3. Verify all processors installed in the chassis are displayed and their status icon is green. A black status icon indicates no card is present.

Session and Load-Balancing Operation

The following procedure is performed at the factory prior to shipment.

  1. Install the WorldDesk and WinFrame clients on a DOS, Win 3.1x, Windows 95 or Windows NT workstation.
  2. Configure the WorldDesk Client to access the cluster name created during the system level configuration.
  3. Create three applications icons using "atserver" application, i.e. atserver write.exe, atserver pbrush.exe and atserver progman.exe.
  4. Start sessions using each of the icons created in step 4 and verify they operate properly and that the progman.exe startup is started on a different WinFrame server than the other applications.

Exit each application to close all sessions.
