Digital Business develops Sharepoint Solutions for Government Ministries
Digital Business announced today that it has developed a customized SharePoint solution for Government Ministries.
This solution is aimed at Government Ministries wishing to take advantage od SharePoint’s advanced document management, collobaration and business intelligence features.
Microsoft SharePoint Server 2007 supports all intranet, extranet, and Web applications across an enterprise within one integrated platform, instead of relying on separate fragmented systems. Additionally, this collaboration and content management server provides IT professionals and developers with the platform and tools they need for server administration, application extensibility, and interoperability.
Office SharePoint Server 2007 provides a single integrated platform to manage intranet, extranet, and Internet applications across the enterprise and offers Ministry’s the following feaures.
- Ministry users gain greater control over the storage, security, distribution, and management of their electronic content, with tools that are easy to use and tightly integrated into familiar, everyday applications.
- Ministries can accelerate shared business processes with customers and partners across organizational boundaries using InfoPath Forms Services–driven solutions.
- Information workers can find information and people efficiently and easily through the facilitated information-sharing functionality and simplified content publishing. In addition, access to back-end data is achieved easily through a browser, and views into this data can be personalized.
- Administrators have powerful tools at their fingertips that ease deployment, management, and system administration, so they can spend more time on strategic tasks.
- Developers have a rich platform to build a new class of applications that combine powerful developer functionality with the flexibility and ease of deployment of Office SharePoint Server 2007. Through the use of out-of-the-box application services, developers can build richer applications with less code.
Top five (5) SharePoint E-Government Applications
- Records Management: Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 has received U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) 5015.2 certification for managing records and documents. Documents can be scanned directly into SharePoint 2007 with all associated metadata. (Ideal for Registry)
- Manage Cabinet Notes Securely manage and search Cabinet Notes with all associated metadata based on individual or group permissions.
- Manage Performance
SharePoint 2007 can be used to measure key performance metrics of Public Sector Organizations or at a departmental level such as Human Resources, Information Technology or Safety (Compliance with the OSHA Act).

FROM the end of this year, members of the public will no longer have to endure standing in long lines to access Government services such as obtaining or renewing their driver’s permit, passport or getting birth certificates.
This, according to Minister of Public Administration Kennedy Swaratsingh who was speaking yesterday at a symposium titled ‘e-Government, Sharing the Vision,’ at the Hyatt Regency Trinidad hotel, Port-of-Spain.
Swaratsingh said: “We have technology to stop those things.”
He added that citizens should not have to go to the Immigration Offices to form “3 am lines.”
He said by the end of 2008 the public should be able to complete Government transactions on-line.
The symposium was the first of a series intended to engage all citizens in shaping the national vision for Information and Communication Technology (ICT).
Swaratsingh said: “ICT is a tool that can only be used to effect change if it is put to good use.”
For ICT to be meaningful, Swaratsingh said “we need to assure our commitment towards evolving from i-Government to e-Government.”
To show how technology has evolved, Prime Minster Patrick Manning delivered his address via video conferencing.
The audience was able to see and listen to him on five flat screen television sets.
Swaratsingh added that face to face interaction was important since there would be a tendency to “take it too far” by utilising the technology.
fastforward, a Government initiative, is the National ICT Strategy.
Swaratsingh said inefficiencies in the provision of services was everyone’s problem.
“If a service is inefficient it is our problem. If the public cannot get access to the information it needs, it is our problem, If business locally is not functioning effectively because of poor ICT infrastructure, then it is our problem,” he said.
He said the Government was aware of the challenges that face the country and “it fuels our devotion to see ICT as an enabler in development of our country.”
Chief executive officers from the private sector, along with senior Government officials attended the event which sought to explore the extent to which ICT was transforming the way in which the Government does business and provides services to businesses, society and citizens.
The basic premise of the event was that the adoption of ICT was a critical success factor for Government’s national development planning activities and in particular for the implementation of the Vision 2020 Operational Plan.

RE-RITE
JUST RUN SETUP _ SET TOSHIBA ip in general tab, set global filetype as DOC. That’s it. No reboot.
do a TIFF test page print to the computer batch folder c:rerite6batch1doc
setup scan to the batch folders under template, that is all
for email, setup smtp in software, and file name as anarine@pcl.com
scan as a tiff file.
view daily logs to verify email sent.
easiest way is to configure an inpath to toshiba fileshare and set global filetype as doc
NFS version – only batch paths, no inpaths
use the remote folder function in scan to file where it lets you BROWSE for a path
on re-rite – for batch1, create a user, give him access to all filetypes in the dropdown box,
if you want personalized scanning
use templates on toshiba machine to scan
First, browse to the path manually, return to the scan to file screen, with scan to file highlighted.
Press templates button, new userregistration. You should see the Save to ” as the template name
Rename this to something like excel or ms word etc.
You need to register a toshiba device, else the software will stop working eventually – disconnection time
Only tiff files can be converted. Any user can copy a
file to be converted into the folder drag and drop
Template will now be assigned to scan to file settings.
Use the web interface to configure the templates – less time.
So for template#1, let the path be \192.168.168.9scansdocgary
The image will be sent to this location, converted to word, and the image deleted all in this directory
There may be no need to create a user if you want all scanned images to be sent to public folders, just use
batch folder 1 (default) and set the scanner to scan to those folders.
For email, enter a file name as email address anarine@pereiraco.net, when doing the scan to folder.
When moving app to another pc, hold down ctrl alt then unregister will come up. Make sure you are
online at this point to unregister, else you will have to manually email roberto. The reg form
online will not work when requesting site key.
Re-rite importing scans from remote folder \ path works. Give the folder everyone access and set the service to logon as a
user with rights.

Notes for sysadmin
Companies will implement RAID 5 Configuration . The others are either not fault tolerant or too expensive to implement.
DELL PERC 5/di is used on poweredge
IT is managed from the Raid Bios or Openmanage software.
You first create a virtual disk, selecting the drives that will be part of the array(the stripes), then initialize.
RAID 5 is striping with parity. Parity is information that is used to rebuild the lost data if one of the drive fails.
A minimum of 3 drives is needed.
Windows will only see the one virtual disk.
The PERC 4 raid controller (PCI card) connects to serial hard drives below using an internal scsi cable.
PERC 4/SC/DC Hardware Installation
Dell™ PowerEdge™ Expandable RAID Controller 4/SC and 4/DC User’s Guide
Requirements
This section describes the procedures for installing the PERC 4/SC/DC controllers. You must have the following items to install the RAID controller:
- A PERC 4/SC or 4/DC controller
- A host system with an available 32- or 64-bit, 3.3V PCI extension slot
- The Dell™ OpenManage™ Server Assistant® CD
- The necessary internal and/or external SCSI cables
- Ultra, Ultra2, Ultra3, Ultra160, or Ultra320 SCSI hard drives
(SCSI is backward compatible, but it slows to the slowest device).
Quick Installation Procedure
Perform the following steps for quick installation of the controller if you are an experienced computer user/installer. All others should follow the steps under the heading Installation Steps in this section.
- Turn off all power to the server and all hard drives, enclosures, and system components.
- Open the cabinet of the host system by following the instructions in the host system technical documentation.
- Determine the SCSI ID and SCSI termination requirements.
- Install the PERC 4 controller in the server and attach the SCSI cables and terminators.
- Make sure pin 1 on the cable matches pin 1 on the connector.
- Make sure that the SCSI cables you use conform to all SCSI specifications.
- Perform a safety check.
- Make sure all cables are properly attached.
- Make sure the PERC 4 controller is properly installed.
- Close the cabinet of the host system.
- Turn power on after completing the safety check.
- Format the hard drives as needed.
- Configure logical drives using the BIOS Configuration Utility, Dell Manager, or the WebBIOS Configuration Utility.
- Initialize the logical drives.
- Install the network operating system drivers as needed.
Installation Steps
This section provides instructions for installing the PERC 4 RAID controllers.
Step 1 Unpack the Controller
 |
NOTICE: See the safety instructions in your system documentation for information about protecting against electrostatic discharge. |
Unpack and remove the controller and inspect it for damage. If the controller appears damaged, or if any items listed below are missing, contact your Dell support representative. The PERC 4 controller is shipped with:
- The PERC 4 RAID Controller User’s Guide (on CD)
- The PERC 4 RAID Controller Operating System Driver Installation Guide (on CD)
 |
NOTE: You can order a hard copy of the documentation for the controller. |
- A license agreement
- The PERC 4 Configuration Utilities diskette
Step 2 Power Down the System
Turn off the system and remove the AC power cord. Disconnect the system from any networks before installing the controller. Remove the system’s cover. Please consult the system documentation for instructions.
Step 3 Set Jumpers
Make sure the jumper settings on the PERC 4/SC or PERC 4/DC controller are correct. Following are diagrams of the controllers showing their jumpers and connectors, and tables describing them. Select your controller from the ones shown on the following pages.
PERC 4/SC Jumpers and Connectors
Figure 3-1. PERC 4/SC Controller Layout
Table 3-1 PERC 4/SC Jumper and Connector Descriptions
PERC 4/DC Jumpers and Connectors
Figure 3-2. PERC 4/DC Controller Layout
Table 3-2 PERC 4/DC Jumper and Connector Descriptions
Step 4 Install the PERC 4 Controller
Select a 3.3V PCI slot and align the controller PCI bus connector to the slot. Press down gently but firmly to make sure that the controller is properly seated in the slot, as shown in Figure 3-3. Screw the bracket to the system chassis.
Figure 3-3. Inserting the PERC 4 Controller into a PCI Slot
Step 5 Connect SCSI Cables and SCSI Devices
Connect the SCSI cables to the SCSI connectors and SCSI devices.
Connect SCSI Devices
Perform the following steps to connect SCSI devices.
- Disable termination on any SCSI device that does not sit at the end of the SCSI bus.
- Configure all SCSI devices to supply TermPWR.
- Set proper target IDs (TIDs) for all SCSI devices.
The host controller has a SCSI ID of 7.
The maximum cable length for Fast SCSI (10 MB/s) devices or single ended (SE) is 3 meters. For Ultra SCSI devices, it is 1.5 meters. The cable length can be up to 12 meters for LVD devices.
Cable Suggestions
System throughput problems can occur if SCSI cable are not the correct. You should:
- Use cables up to 12 meters for Ultra3, Ultra160, and Ultra320 devices.
- For single-ended SCSI devices, use the shortest SCSI cables (no more than 3 meters for Fast SCSI, no more than 1.5 meters for an 8-drive Ultra SCSI system and no more than 3 meters for a 6-drive Ultra SCSI system).
- Use active termination.
- Avoid clustering the cable nodes.
- Note that cable stub length should be no more than 0.1 meter (4 inches).
- Route SCSI cables carefully.
- Use high impedance cables.
- Do not mix cable types (choose either flat or rounded and shielded or non-shielded).
- Note that ribbon cables have fairly good cross-talk rejection characteristics.
Step 6 Set Target IDs
Set target identifiers (TIDs) on the SCSI devices. Each device in a channel must have a unique TID. Non-disk devices should have unique SCSI IDs regardless of the channel where they are connected. See the documentation for each SCSI device to set the TIDs. The PERC 4 controller automatically occupies TID 7 which is the highest priority. The arbitration priority for a SCSI device depends on its TID. Table 3-3 lists the target IDs.
|
Priority |
Highest Lowest |
|||||||||||
|
TID |
7 |
6 |
5 |
… |
2 |
1 |
0 |
15 |
14 |
… |
9 |
8 |
Step 7 Set SCSI Termination
The SCSI bus is an electrical transmission line and must be terminated properly to minimize reflections and losses. Termination should be set at each end of the SCSI cable(s).
For a disk array, set SCSI bus termination so that removing or adding a SCSI device does not disturb termination. An easy way to do this is to connect the controller to one end of the SCSI cable and to connect an external terminator module at the other end of the cable. The connectors between the two ends can connect SCSI devices. Disable termination on the SCSI devices. See the manual for each SCSI device to disable termination.
Set the termination so that SCSI termination and TermPWR are intact when any hard drive is removed from a SCSI channel, as shown in Figure 3-4.
Figure 3-4. Terminating Internal SCSI Disk Array
Step 8 Start the System
Replace the system cover and reconnect the AC power cords. Turn power on to the host system. Set up the power supplies so that the SCSI devices are powered up at the same time as or before the host system. If the system is powered up before a SCSI device, the device might not be recognized.
During boot, the PERC 4 BIOS message appears:
PowerEdge Expandable RAID Controller BIOS Version x.xx date
Copyright (c) Dell Computer Corporation
Firmware Initializing… [ Scanning SCSI Device ...(etc.)... ]
The firmware takes several seconds to initialize. During this time the adapter scans the SCSI channel. When ready, the following appears:
HA –0 (Bus 1 Dev 6) Type: PERC 4/xx Standard FW x.xx SDRAM=xxxMB
0 Logical Drives found on the Host Adapter
0 Logical Drive(s) handled by BIOS
Press to run PERC 4 BIOS Configuration Utility
Or press to run WebBIOS
The PERC 4 BIOS Configuration Utility prompt times out after several seconds.
The PERC 4 host controller number, firmware version, and cache SDRAM size display in the second portion of the BIOS message. The numbering of the controllers follows the PCI slot scanning order used by the host motherboard.
Light-emitting Diode (LED) Description
When you start the system, the boot block and firmware perform a number of steps that load the operating system and allow the computer to function properly. The boot block contains the operating system loader and other basic information needed during startup.
As the system boots, the LEDs indicate the status of the boot block and firmware initialization and whether the system performed the steps correctly. If there is an error during startup, you can use the LED display to identify it.
Table 3-4 displays the LEDs and execution states for the boot block. Table 3-5 displays the LEDs and execution states during firmware initialization. The LEDs display in hexadecimal format so that you can determine the number and the corresponding execution state from the LEDs that display.
Table 3-5 Firmware Initialization States

|
0xF |
Set if Serial Loopback Test is successful |
Step 9 Run the PERC 4 BIOS Configuration Utility, WebBIOS Utility, or Dell Manager
Press when prompted during the boot process to run the BIOS Configuration Utility or to run the WebBIOS Configuration Utility. You can also run Dell Manager in Novell NetWare and Red Hat Linux to perform the same functions, such as configuring arrays and logical drives.
See PERC 4 BIOS Configuration Utility for additional information about running the PERC 4 BIOS Configuration Utility. WebBIOS is an HTML-based configuration utility. See WebBIOS Configuration Utility, for additional information about running the WebBIOS Configuration Utility and Dell Manager, for additional information about running Dell Manager.
Step 10 Install an Operating System
Install one of the following operating systems: Microsoft® Windows NT®, Windows® 2000, Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, Novell® NetWare®, and Red Hat Linux.
Step 11 Install the Operating System Driver
Operating system drivers are provided on the Dell OpenManage Server Assistant CD that accompanies your PERC controller. See the PERC 4 RAID Controller Operating System Driver Installation Guide for additional information about installing the drivers for the operating systems.

System administrator
After installing windows 2003 server.
Add/remove programs in control panel,
select DNS and DCHP servers – follow wizard.
DNS works out of the box and you can connect to the internet automatically.
Configure a dns forwarder as opendns if you wish.
ENSURE YOU HAVE SETUP A PRIMARY DNS ZONE IN FORWARDERS FOR YOUR DOMAIN. ELSE
COMPUTERS WILL GO TO THE INTERNET TO TRY TO RESOLVE THE DOMAIN SERVER AND
LOGON TIMES WILL BE VERY LONG AND GROUP POLICY WILL NOT BE APPLIED.
ALWAYS TRY TO PING THE DOMAIN CONTROLLER BY fqdn.
Run -> dcpromo to become a domain controller.
To run dhcp remember the 3 important things:
Create a scope, Authorize DHCP, then Activate scope. Else dhcp will not work.
Each ip/NIC in the server can have scopes for different subnets (as in Pereira)
Set scope options to configure router and dns server ips specifically.
Exchange 2003 – all you need is smtp, nntp services installed from control panel
“Microsoft Exchange Pop” and imap services are disabled by default.
Group policy is administered through AD users applet.
Greate a new group policy, call it Mynewpolicy.
Right click a GPO and select no overide.
New GPO’s are really to be added to OUs. Check block inheritance.
Edit GPO settings as needed. You will find all the good stuff in user configuration section.
“Block inheritance” will not work on an OU where the Parent GPO has the no overide option set
Terminal services – better than remote desktop, as it does not log you out of the server and
more than one user can use apps on the server.
You will need to add all terminal server programs in add/remove windows components.
Add “allow logon through terminal services” right to the remote desktop users group.
Also add the specific user to that right.

Answer
There are three possible Error Messages that you can encounter when attempting to Remotely Manage a Device from
the @Remote Center System.
1) RESULT_EXIST_DEVICE_IP
This message indicates that the IP Address which was used during remote registration was duplicated with another
Managed Device already claiming to have the same IP Addresss.
This is very simple reason, and anyone can easily notice the cause. In this case, you should retrieve the latest
AutoDIscovery data with the latest IP (Download the Counter CSV File).
Since only one Device can be assigned to one IP Address, you may need to un Manage the previous Device so that you
can now Manage the new Device.
2) RESULT_NG
This error shows in case when the following condition is occurring on the Device side.
a. Power off
b. Disconnected
c. IP Address was changed
d. Device type is not correct: You selected “HTTPS” in the center GUI against SNMP device.
e. DESS module is not installed: Against a part of MFP which DESS was not pre-installed (models produced in early
2004), You selected “HTTPS” in the center GUI.
To clarify the device condition, please check reporting CSV if the device is working beforehand.
If you see the download CSV, some devices which you failed to manage may not be listed in the CSV, which could
indicate that they are in condition “a” or “b” above.
3) RESULT_BUSY
This error occurs when the next request is sent before the current request is completed.
The RC Gate can execute only one job (request from the center).
Thus, if two requests are made from the center GUI and sent to the RC Gate at the same time by periodical polling
from the RC Gate, the RC Gate can only perform the first request. Second request is not performed at all, and simply
returns back the result to the center with “Busy”.
So, please do not make plural requests to the same RC Gate in short period (normally within one hour).
As general comment, if you are going to perform a remote registration request, please keep the following rule.
Check counter CSV if the device is working.
Check the device category if the device is NRS compatible (HTTPS) or MIB device (SNMP).
Check the device status if DESS module is installed. (If not sure, select SNMP)
If you created a request, do not create another request to the same RC Gate within one hour.
If the same error is continued, final action should be to visit the customer to see the device, and perform device
registration at the Customer Site via the RC Gate GUI.

MR Date is Meter Read Date which will be a number between 1 and 28, this will be the reoccurring date of the Month that the Managed Device will provide it’s Meter Read Information to the @Remote Center.
EMBEDDED atremote:
At pereira:
Request request number from website
Email this number to yourself.
At customer:
Ensure the device is removed from any external RC gate device management
Enter request number on at remote embedded
Confirm succeeds (instantly) once the device has internet connection!
Press the “program” next to “confirm”
That’s it.
For a new device added, go to the registrant mode of atremote, search the network,
check the device, and add.
The other way is to wait for the auto-discover time to occur that day.
