NETWORK (procedures)

0.4 Network and Software Procedures

0.4.1 Preparing the Network

• Create a list of which computer will run which software during the Mission
  • e.g. Grissom = MC EECOM
• On Fu in the Simulator Loft, find My Network Places
• Verify that all computers to be used have a mapped network drive in this location
  • e.g. X:\Orbit on Cassini
  • Note that the "drive letter" for this example is "X"
• Click each drive to activate it
• On Fu's desktop, start SERVER and proceed with Network and Software Procedures#0.4.2 SERVER

0.4.2 SERVER

• You will be prompted to give the letter corresponding to several mapped network drives
• Press Enter to keep the previous setting

Troubleshooting

If, after several seconds, any item in the list is Red

1. Identify which piece of software is at issue
2. Verify that the network drive that SERVER is using for that software is mapped to the correct computer
   1. If SERVER is pointing to the incorrect drive, restart SERVER, and enter the correct drive letter when prompted
3. Verify that the mapped network drive is activated in My Network Places.
   1. If the drive has not been activated, activate it by double clicking it.
