Support Center is Almost Here

Support Center

Last month we briefly introduced our readers to Support Center, an upcoming application for CIM. This month we'll give you more details about what Support Center will do for you.

What is Support Center?

Support Center is a new Java application that Syntellect has developed to apply PRC updates to Syntellect CIM.

Why did Syntellect develop Support Center?

We developed Support Center to make it easier for customers to apply program updates to CIM.

What will Support Center do for me?

Support Center will provide a new level of automation and certainty to the application of updates. Support Center will:

1.     Display release notes for this update.

2.     Validate that you are applying the update to the correct version of CIM.

3.     Ensure that your environment is ready for the update: sufficient disk space, etc.

4.     Perform a backup of application files to be replaced prior to applying the update.

5.     Warn you of customized files to be replaced, separately back them up, and remind you to reapply the customizations to the new version of the file.

6.     Perform a "dry run" of the update and provide visual detail of all actions it will take during the update.

7.     Automatically stop Apropos services prior to applying the update.

8.     Apply the update and extensively log all actions and any errors.

9.     Automatically roll back the update if it fails and report on the failure and reason for rollback.

10.  Separately, provide a history of all updates applied to the server.

11.  Separately, provide the ability to roll back a previously applied update.

 What versions of CIM utilize Support Center?

Support Center works with Syntellect CIM versions 6.6 and forward.

Can I still apply PRC updates the way I've been doing?

Once available, Support Center will be the only way to apply PRC updates to CIM.

What will this first release of Support Center not do?

The first version of Support Center will apply PRCs only: it will not apply ERCs or FRCs.

Support Center must be installed on each CIM server

What future plans do you have for Support Center?

The first release of Support Center will enable the application of PRC updates to individual CIM servers. Future releases will enable the PRC updating of all servers within a node from one central server with the node. The ability to apply ERC's through Support Center is also planned.

Where can I get more information about Support Center?

Contact your Syntellect sales representative or account manager for more information. Next month's newsletter will provide some screen views of Support Center.

How will Syntellect support me when I first use Support Center?

As always, customers may contact Syntellect Customer Support with problems or questions.

Is there a cost for Support Center?

There is no cost for Support Center.
