Support Center is
Almost Here

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.
