Deployment in a multi-user setting


The purpose of this document is to discuss the minimum requirements to deploy WireCAD in a multi-user environment in a closed network. New information will be presented interspersed with links to existing topics.

Minimum System Requirements

Client

Your clients are required to install WireCAD fully. This requires the following:

  • Windows operating system of Win2K or higher.
  • 1Gig RAM for 32bit machines and 2Gig for 64bit machines. This is the minimum; more is recommended.
  • 180Meg hard drive storage. This is the install minimum; more may be required based on configuration.

WireCAD will require Admin privileges to install. Be sure to test final configuration under a standard user.

Server

Your server should be configured with the following:

  • MS SQL Server 2005 or 2008. See Setup_SQL_Server for more information.
    • MS SQL Server Management Studio.

Template:Note:MS SQL Server will place database files in the C:\Program Files\MSSQL Server directories by default. This is not good practice as most backup software ignores the Program Files directory

  • Network shares for shared documents. We recommend a shared Projects area and a shared Global data area.
