Updates to the lab environment 1/12/09

* Modified ArcGIS 9.3 install script. Changed variable that for the
location of the 9.2 maps such that it points to their exact directory.
The change was needed because the 9.3 maps use a similar directory
structure.

* Modified Flash 10 Plug-in and Active X install scripts to use a
condition. This will prevent the install from running on a restart.

Changes to Rhinoceros Deployment

The following changes were made to the Rhinoceros deployment on Sites Vista PC’s in the Angell Hall and Architecture Sites:

 

1.       The V-Ray Render Plug-in for Rhinoceros was deployed via the ccs-'08-'09-V-Ray_1.05.03-software GPO to the Angell Hall and Architecture sites.

2.       A firewall program exception for rhino4.exe was added to the ccs-'08-'09-vista-settings GPO. The firewall exception is required to enable communication of the VRay network license manager.

3.       The method used to keyserve Rhino was modified to correct an issue where Rhinoceros failed to install on a newly reloaded system. Previously, a keyed copy of rhino4.exe was deployed using a Group Policy file preference item in the ccs-'08-'09-Rhino-keyed-exe-deployment GPO. The method deploys the keyed rhino4.exe via the Rhino 4 install script in the ccs-'08-'09-Rhino3D_SR4_Software GPO.

Shortcut and Start Menu changes to Virtual Sites Advanced Statistics machines

I have enabled the part of the startup script for the Advanced
Statistics Virtual Sites Machines that removes the old shortcuts for
those programs.

To recap: the programs previously had shortcuts in two places, and will
now have shortcuts only in the Advanced Statistics folder. Old shortcuts
were under Course Software on the Virtual Sites machines dedicated to Stats.

The affected programs are:
- HLM 6.0.6
- Sudaan 9.0.3
- Lisrel 8.5
- Mplus 5
- Minitab 15
- Wordsmith 5
- nQuery Advisor 7.0
- Nvivo 8

Users who cannot find these programs in the menu should make sure to
check the Advanced Statistics folder in the Programs menu.

This change will take effect the next time these machines reboot and
process startup scripts.

Windows Update Settings Changes on CCS-DFS02

The settings for Windows Update have been modified on CCS-DFS02. The previous settings installed updates and restarted the server as needed at 3 AM when critical and important updates were available. The new settings will download updates automatically, but installation of updates and reboots of the server will require the actions of an administrator.

 

This change makes the configuration of Windows Updates on CCS-DFS01 consistent with the other production Windows Server 2008 systems.

necessary permission to write to a temp folder that SAS creates at
C:\windows\sas temporary files.

Created new DFS namespace and name replication point. It is named
"adsroot.itcs.umich.edu\sites\DeploymentPoint$". It original purpose of
was to create a means to create/test the winter 2009 image without
affecting our production environment. Also it allows use to use either
ccs-dfs01 or ccs-dfs02 to install the new image. Ultimately this may be
