How and where is Titanium Schedule normally installed on a network?
There are three parts to Titanium Schedule.
- The data is stored in SQL Server. (MSDE is a version of SQL Server.) SQL Server is normally installed on your network file server or possibly a separate computer dedicated to SQL Server.
- The Titanium Schedule application files are stored in a shared network folder. This folder is often named "\Titanium Schedule" and is usually located on your network file server. This folder contains Ti7.exe which is the program used to start Titanium Schedule.
- Each workstation must run a setup program to install the runtime support files required by Titanium Schedule. This setup program is SetupWorkstation70SP1.exe or Support70SP1WithHelp.exe. This setup file is in the application folder and on the install CD.
How do I determine what version of Titanium Schedule I have?
Start Titanium Schedule, then select "Help", then "Version Information" from the menu. The first line will show the application version date. In older versions of the software, this information is available by selecting "Help" then "About Titanium Schedule".
How do I determine the application folder?
If you can, start Titanium Schedule, then select "Help", then "Version Information" from the menu. The second line will show the application folder.
How do I setup a new workstation to run Titanium Schedule?
Install the runtime support files by running WorkstationSetup70SP1.exe or Support70SP1WithHelp.exe which is located in your application folder. Then, create a shortcut to the Ti7.exe file in the application folder.
Do I have to run the patches and updates on every workstation?
Normally, you do not have to run the patch on every workstation. In most cases, you will just run the patch once. Most patches just update the files in the application folder, and there is only one application folder that is shared by everyone. The only exception to this is the rare occasion where the runtime support library has been updated. In that situation, there will be additional instructions with the patch specifying that some file like WorkstationSetupt70SP1.exe needs to run on every workstation.
Do the workstation setup/runtime support files ever need to be installed on the file server?
If the file server is ever used as a workstation to run Titanium Schedule, then yes. If the file server is not used as a workstation, which is the most common approach, then no, there is no reason to install the runtime support files on the file server.
In the application folder, there are several files with the name Ti7??.APP. Are they all necessary?
These files are the application files. Only the last one, in alphabetical order, is currently used. The other ones are left from previous patches For example, if you have Ti7HA.APP, Ti7HB.APP and Ti7HC.APP, then you can safely delete Ti7HA.APP and Ti7HB.APP, because only the Ti7HC.APP files is used.
