4. 4 CHEMS – Which Server? Novell – Still the most stable server environment – Don’t use the 4.9 Client (Use 4.83 instead) Windows – About Half 2000 / 2003 Windows Servers As always contact me BEFORE switching! – Different drivers & configuration

5. 5 CHEMS – Which Workstation? Any version of Windows is OK Many counties moving to Windows XP – XP has been very stable – Windows Printing works fine with CHEMS Computer – Bigger & Faster is always better – Just about any XP capable computer will work

7. 7 CHEMS – Need Support? About ½ my time goes into CHEMS support Daily issues that come up Server changes / upgrades Hardware failures / recovery New Counties coming on Existing Counties getting into new areas – Barcoding / fuel / sub-systems – Walworth started using “full” CHEMS

8. 8 CHEMS – Need Support? Some Standard Things To Try…. Exit CHEMS / Reboot your workstation Has anything changed? Web site / Newsgroups Contact training team / county Contact me for support – Continue to use Email / Phone Look at the big picture – Quick to think it’s CHEMS and miss the obvious – Power problems in one county – Network issues in another (UPS on Router)
