The following is an overview of the steps necessary to get the WIMS system operational from an IT standpoint. Your Hach Project Manager will step you though the install and configuration via WebEx. Please review the steps below in preparation for the remote install.
- We will install and use our Hach WIMS Oracle Server Setup tool to create a new Oracle user called OPSROOT. Consequently, it will create a table space (OPSMASTERSTORAGE), which will be used to store all physical data for WIMS. Server Setup will require an Oracle username and password of a user with high Oracle privileges (DBA).
Note: This login information is not stored by any Hach WIMS product once the structures have been created.
- Import the database we’ve created for your system to your Oracle Server instance.
- Install the Hach WIMS NT Services on whatever computer / application server you’d like that is on the same network. These services should be on a powerful PC that has a stable connection to the database Server.
- AdoCalc: The WIMSTM Calc engine is an NT Service that monitors the WIMSTM databases and calculates data.
- Email Gateway (optional): Connects to your SMTP mail server and relays the emails generated by the Hach WIMS.
- Scheduler (optional): Used to schedule output of reports or graphs and database calculations.
- GNR Server (optional): Receives requests from the scheduler to output reports and graphs, sends the output to a printer, a file, or to email.
- Interfaces (optional): Connects to other systems (i.e. SCADA, LIMS, etc…) and imports specified data into the WIMS database.
4. Install the Client application on a pc connected to the network and test functionality.
NOTE: All pc's that will run WIMS will need the Oracle 32-bit Provider for OLE DB compatible with your version of Oracle (9i or higher).
