There are three main phases to the installation process that should normally be carried out
in the following order:
1 Pre-installation preparation - Before you start:
Ensure that you know what to install.
Check that the hardware and infrastructure are suitable and that the prerequisite
software is available.
2 Installation Procedures - The methods for:
Installing any prerequisite software.
Installing the Exaquantum software.
3 Configuration - Make the necessary adjustments to the default configuration to match

your situation.
Alternatively you may be making Changes To An Existing Installation.
When the installation is completed, you should refer to the Checking The Installation
section.
Language
Exaquantum is available in other Language options, which can have an affect on the
installation process.
Note: All procedures should be carried out using a Windows account that has
administrator privileges on the local machine.

1.3 Other Sources Of Information

This guide provides all the information you require to carry out the installation.
If you want a greater understanding of some of the more complicated concepts behind the
software then you can refer to other Exaquantum documents.
The following documents are available in PDF on the Exaquantum Software CD. You can
also choose for them to be installed on the target computer:
Note: In order to view PDF documents on this PC, Adobe Acrobat must be installed. It is
available from the Exaquantum Prerequisites CD.

StoryFinder PDF File Search Application
The StoryFinder application is developed by Yokogawa for searching multiple pdf files. It
works with Adobe Acrobat Reader as plug-in. The application allows a search for any
word across multiple pdf files.
It is the same application as provided for the CS1000/3000 manuals.
How to Install StoryFinder
Double click the on the file /Misc/FINDER.exe located in the prerequisite CD. StoryFinder
software will be installed.
The Index File FindIndex.dat is installed during the Exaquantum installation to

<Exaquantum Installation Folder>\Documentation. This is typically C:\Program
Files\Yokogawa\Exaquantum PIMS\Documentation.

How to Use StoryFinder
1 When this StoryFinder.exe is installed on the PC, a 'Plug-Ins' menu will appear on
Adobe Acrobat Reader menu-bar.
2 When the [Plug-Ins] - [StoryFINDER] menu is selected, the StoryFinder dialog will be
displayed.
3 Press the 'Add List' button in the 'Selecting document' area.
4 Specify the index file which is installed
5 Select the index file.

In the case of Adobe Acrobat Reader 5.0.5 or Adobe Reader 6.0.1, select following

7 Press the 'Find Now' button. The search results dialog will be shown.
8 Double click on any line to see the page.
1.4 Language options

Supported Languages
Exaquantum currently supports the English and Japanese languages.
English is the default language, except in the case of Japanese being detected.
Language Detection
During the installation process, Exaquantum detects the language being used based on the
operating systems default code page, which is not necessarily the language selection by
the setting in the Windows 'Locale'.
For example, when English Windows 2000 is installed, and Japanese is selected as the
default language, the Exaquantum installation will install English files.
Exaquantum will display the installation dialogs in the detected or default language and
installs the same version of documentation and database defaults.

1.5 Support
In the case of any problems with the installation of the software, support is available from
the relevant Yokogawa representative.
Before Contacting Yokogawa Support
Please check the information in this guide and the Other Sources Of Information section to
ensure that the basic installation and configuration issues have been addressed.
The support process will be much more efficient if you have some basic information ready
when you call:
The version and release numbers of the software.
The operating system being used, including the service pack level.
A concise description of the problem and its symptoms.
Full details of any error messages encountered.
Access to the Windows Event Viewer, in particular the Application and System logs.
Tip: The Information Gathering Tool can be used to create a comprehensive report
containing useful information to help diagnose many problems. Further details can be
obtained in the Exaquantum Engineering Guide Vol. 3. See the Other Sources Of
Information section for a link.

Chapter 2 Pre-installation preparation

2.1 Pre-Installation Overview
During the preparation stage you need to discover what form of installation will be
performed.
The following topics are discussed:
Additional Features
Client / Server Technology
Open Interface
User And Group Accounts
Exaquantum OPC Client
Excel Add-Ins
Hard Disk Considerations
Internet Information Server
Microsoft Message Queue
Primary And Secondary Exaquantum PIMS Servers
Role Based Name Space
Secure Workbook Folder Location
Server Time Synchronisation
Web Server Deployment Options
Web Authoring Tools
Windows Terminal Services
21 CFR Part 11 Support
These issues should already have been decided at an earlier stage of the project. If you do
not know all the answers then seek advice from the system or project manager.
Before you install the Exaquantum software it is essential to confirm that the necessary
prerequisites are available (Overview). The prerequisites depend on the form of
installation discussed in the list of topics above.

2-2 Chapter 2 Pre-installation preparation
2.2 Additional Features

The Exaquantum system contains a number of additional features and tools that provide
extra functionality:
Not all these items are required for every installation.
During the installation procedure you to choose which ones to install.
Some items need prerequisite software (Overview).
Before starting the installation procedure you should determine which of the following
items are to be installed. Refer to the list in the Exaquantum Select Features dialog box.
For further information about these features, refer to the relevant item in the other sources
of information (Other Sources Of Information).
2.3 Client / Server Technology Options

Exaquantum uses a client / sever architecture that can be deployed in two distinct forms:
Exaquantum/Explorer technology - A dedicated application running on the client,

communicates directly with the Exaquantum/PIMS server over the LAN (local area
network).
Exaquantum/Web technology - A standard web browser on the client, uses HTTP to

communicate with the Exaquantum/Web server, which in turn communicates with the
Exaquantum/PIMS server.
Note: The important technical and policy issues concerning the method used in any
particular situation need to be settled at an early stage. This discussion is beyond the
scope of this guide. If you want help in making a decision then please discuss the
implications with your Yokogawa representative.

Servers
There are three options for deploying the server software:
Exaquantum/PIMS server installed on a single computer.
Exaquantum/Web server installed on a single computer.
Exaquantum/PIMS server and Exaquantum/Web server combined on a single

computer.
All systems must have at least one Exaquantum/PIMS server.
The Exaquantum/Web server can be deployed in two ways (Web Server Deployment
Options).
Note: The combined server deployment is only intended for small-scale, low volume use,
such as demonstrations.
Clients
There are two client software options (Client Software Options):
Exaquantum/Explorer client
Exaquantum/Web client

2.4 Client Software Options

The choice of client installation depends entirely on whether DCOM or Web-based
technology is being used.
Exaquantum/Explorer client - Dedicated software that uses DCOM (Distributed

Component Object Model) to communicate with the Exaquantum/PIMS server.
Exaquantum/Web client - Uses a standard web browser and HTTP (Hypertext

Transport Protocol) to communicate with the Exaquantum/Web server.
Figure 2-1 Figure 2-2

2.5 Web Server Deployment Options

In the case of the Exaquantum system using Web-based technology, there is a choice in the
way the two server components are deployed:
Two server deployment - Install the Exaquantum/PIMS and Exaquantum/Web servers

on separate computers.
Single server deployment - Install both the Exaquantum/PIMS and Exaquantum/Web

servers on the same computer.
The requirement for the hardware platforms on which the software is installed is explained
in the topic Combined Server Prerequisites. The software prerequisites are described in the
topic Exaquantum/PIMS Server Prerequisites.

2.6 Open Interface

The Open Interface (formally known as Cross-server calculations) provides the ability to
perform calculations using data from across different Exaquantum servers.
The effect on the installation process is that the Exaopc server is added to the prerequisite
software (Overview) for the Exaquantum/PIMS server.
The Exaopc server software must be installed before the main Exaquantum/PIMS server
software.
The installation menu will alert you of this requirement at the relevant time.
2.7 User And Group Accounts

All parts of an Exaquantum system need to communicate and share data.
In order to regulate access to facilities and functionality they share a basic set of
common users and groups with various access rights and privileges.
Exaquantum employs the Windows operating system user and group accounts to
manage this facility.

Account Management
There are two fundamentally different ways of configuring these accounts:
Local Group Accounts - maintain a set of local User and Group accounts on each
Exaquantum/PIMS server in the workgroup.
Domain Accounts - maintain a centralised set of User and Group accounts on a domain
server.
By default, Exaquantum uses local groups for account management method. There are also
other areas of the Exaquantum installation that depend on how this is managed, such as
Server Time Synchronisation and Role Based Name Space.
Implications For The Installation
The installation procedure only supports local group accounts.
Be aware that if you:
Upgrade a system that already uses domain based accounts, and want to continue that
way, some post installation configuration is required (Using Domain\Local Accounts).
Install a new system and you want to use a domain to manage the accounts, then you
should contact your Yokogawa representative.
2.8 Exaquantum Accounts

This is the basic set of User and Group accounts required for the Exaquantum system.
User Account
During installation of a new system this account is automatically established on each

computer.
QuantumUser - very important account used internally for access by the system.

Default Group Accounts
During installation of a new system these are automatically established on each

Exaquantum/PIMS server.
QUserGroup
QAdministratorGroup
QExplorerDesignGroup
QDataWriteGroup
Note: For an existing installation, the presence of the groups will be detected to prevent
them being overwritten with new ones.
Optional Group Accounts
User defined groups for RBNS (Role Based Name Space)
Domain Based Accounts
If you are upgrading a system that uses a windows domain, and you want to continue to
use domain based accounts (Using Domain\Local Accounts), then some extra
configuration will be necessary.
2.9 Exaquantum OPC Client

For installations that use non-Exaquantum clients to view OPC data, Yokogawa provide a
small-footprint Exaquantum OPC client program. This can be loaded on the client PC in
order to access to the OPC data from Exaquantum OPC server.
The Exaquantum Open Interface is used by the Exaquantum system to provide Cross-
server calculations (Open Interface).
The Exaquantum OPC client is available on the main Exaquantum Software CD at:
OPCClient\Exaquantum OPC Client.msi
To install the software, double-click on the file above.

2.10 Excel Add-Ins

The Excel Add-ins allows Exaquantum client users to view and manipulate Exaquantum
data using Microsoft Excel.
The effect of the Excel Add-ins on the installation is that:
A suitable version of Microsoft Excel must be available and should be installed on the
client as part of the prerequisite software (Overview).
Note: The Excel Add-in is an optional extension to the basic Exaquantum features. It
requires a suitable version of Microsoft Excel be installed. Microsoft Excel is not supplied.
If you do not install Excel first as recommended, some post installation configuration
(The Excel Add-In Files) is necessary.
2.11 Hard Disk Considerations

There are three aspects of the hard disk storage that can be considered:
Interface - Best performance is obtained by using a SCSI interface
RAID (Redundant Array of Inexpensive Drives) - Where data integrity is of paramount

importance a RAID-5 system should be considered.
Partitioning - It is strongly recommended that you use a separate drive for the
Exaquantum data. If this is not possible then a separate partition should be allocated.
The recommended partitions sizes for the server are shown in the table.
Table 2-1
Partition / Disk Contents Comment

Windows Operating Operating system files. At least 2GB.
System Paging file (More if memory size is 512 MB or greater)
Exaquantum program files At least 500MB.
Applications SQL. (More if online documentation and other
Server program files optional items are installed)
Depends entirely on how much historical
Exaquantum databases data you will keep available online.
Data (SQL database)
created by SQL Server (Consult your Yokogawa representative for
advice)

2.12 Internet Information Server

Internet Information Server (IIS) provides the functionality for the Exaquantum/Web
server to be able to act as a web site.
The Exaquantum/Web server uses IIS to serve web pages to Exaquantum/Web clients that
connect using the HTTP (Hypertext Transport Protocol) and a standard web browser.
We strongly recommend that if IIS will be used, that it be installed by selecting it as one of
the options available when the operating system is installed.
Although it can be added later this will involve additional work and duplication.
If you install the IIS later, you will have to re-install any Windows service packs that
have been added.
2.13 Microsoft Message Queue (MSMQ)

The Microsoft Message Queue (MSMQ) is essential if the installation will use the
Exaquantum Event Generator Tool.
The Exaquantum Event Generator Tool is used to link applications that provide additional
functionality on top of the Exaquantum/PIMS server software.
We strongly recommend that if MSMQ will be used, that it be installed by selecting it as

one of the options available when the operating system is installed.
Although it can be added later this will involve additional work and duplication.
If you install the MSMQ later, you will have to re-install any Windows service pack
that has been added.
Installing MSMQ needs some special attention. Please see section, Installing MSMQ
for further details.
2.14 Primary And Secondary Exaquantum PIMS Servers

The Exaquantum/Web server and any Exaquantum/Explorer clients need to be able to
communicate with an Exaquantum/PIMS server over the LAN.
Many Exaquantum systems have more than one Exaquantum/PIMS server. Identifying a
secondary server allows for an alternative source of data in the case of a problem with the
primary server.
During the installation procedure of these components you will be asked to enter the name
of the Primary and Secondary Exaquantum/PIMS servers as in Exaquantum PIMS
Server Names.

2.15 Role Based Name Space

Role Based Name Space (RBNS) is a method used by Exaquantum for allocating access to
system features and data according to the user's role.
The default access control to Exaquantum uses the user and group account feature offered
by the Windows operating system. RBNS builds upon this to provide user configurable
group accounts as well.
By creating a set of groups based upon job roles, each user's access can easily be changed
by moving them to the appropriate group.
For example:
If a user changes role it is only necessary to change the groups to which they belong.
To change the access permissions of a whole group of staff depends on the network
access security environment being used:
Domain - requires only a single change to the role group to which they all belong.
Workgroup - requires a change to be made on each Exaquantum/PIMS server in the

workgroup.
2.16 Secure Workbook Folder Location

The Secure Workbooks available to Exaquantum client users must be accessible to all the
clients.
There are three ways the location of the folder containing the Secure Workbooks can be
configured, each with different implications for the installation process:
Specified Local Folders [Default]
Separate copies of all the secure workbooks must be maintained on each of the clients
that use them.
By default the folder is located within the Exaquantum program files area.
The path must be identical when seen from the server and each client.

Shared Folder On A Mapped Drive
The secure workbooks are kept in a shared folder at a central location.
Access to the folder is defined using a mapped drive.
The path to the location of the mapped drive and shared folder has to be entered at
installation time.
The mapped drive has to be set up on each client.
Shared Folder Using A UNC Path
The secure Workbooks are kept in a shared folder at a central location.
Access to the folder is defined using a UNC network path.

A UNC path has the form
= the name of the computer hosting the secure workbooks
= the file system path to the secure workbook folder on the computer
'computer_name'
= the name of the folder containing the secure workbooks
This form of addressing provides a universal address that requires no configuration of

the clients.
Note: The location of the secure workbooks is not checked by the installation procedure.
The location is checked at first use, when the client is run by a user who is not a member
of the QExplorerDesignGroup.
2.17 Server Time Synchronisation

Time synchronisation between the Exaquantum Server and OPC Server(s) is required for
the correct working of Exaquantum. Failure to synchronise the two could result in no live
data or no history data. The subject of Time Synchronisation is covered in detail in
Engineering Guide 2.

2.18 Web Authoring Tools Option

The Web Authoring Tools option provides the ability to add Exaquantum objects to
bespoke web pages for use by Exaquantum clients.
The tools included with the Exaquantum software are specifically designed to integrate
with Microsoft FrontPage.
Any other HTML based web authoring editor can be used, but the integration will not
be available.
A copy of the chosen HTML editor will be required for each computer on which the
Web Authoring Tools are installed.
If Microsoft FrontPage is being used, in order to make integration more straight

forward, it should be installed before the Exaquantum software. If it is installed later,
the integration will have to be performed manually.
2.19 Windows Terminal Services

Exaquantum/PIMS has a feature that allows some of the Administration Tools to be used
remotely using an Internet Explorer web browser.
This feature uses the Windows Terminal Services facility, which is provided as an option
with all of the supported Windows Server Operating systems.
The installation and configuration procedure for Terminal Services differs significantly
with the version of Windows being used. For more details refer to the information that is
provided by Microsoft, about Terminal Services and the operating system you are using.
Whenever the feature is first accessed from a browser, an ActiveX control will be
downloaded from the server and installed on the local PC (Configuring Internet Explorer
Activex Security).
2.20 21 CFR Part 11 Support

The Exaquantum system provides an optional feature to support the U.S. FDA regulation
21 CFR Part 11. This defines rules for securing the long term storage of electronic records
using electronic signatures.
If your installation is required to support these regulations, you will need to activate
support during the installation procedure for Exaquantum/PIMS server, using the
Exaquantum 21 CFR Part 11 Settings dialog box.
You will need to know the period, in minutes, for which passwords are valid before they
need to be refreshed.
Note: 21 CFR Part 11 support is only available why you buy CFR Part 11 option with
Exaquantum/Batch.

Chapter 6 Installation Troubleshooting

6.1 Recovering From A Failed Installation
In the case of an installation that fails for any reason, it is important to ensure that
subsequent attempts are not corrupted by the existing files. In order to avoid corruption,
we recommend that the faulty installation be completely removed before attempting a new
installation.
Removing A Failed Installation
1 If possible, try to uninstall the Exaquantum software using the standard Windows
Add/Remove Programs facility (Uninstalling Exaquantum).
Continuing Problem
If installation fails repeatedly, the reason for the failure should be established:
1 Check the release notes for any late information about the product.
2 Re-read the relevant sections of this guide.
3 Note the circumstances and symptoms of the failure.
4 Create an Installation Log File.
If, after thorough investigation the reason for the failure is not clear, then we recommend
you consult with your Yokogawa representative to try and discover the cause.

6-2 Chapter6 Installation Troubleshooting
6.2 Installation Log File

If the installation fails, or the software does not start properly, it could be due to a problem
with the installation procedure. In this situation, you may be able to locate the problem by
creating an installation log file.
To achieve this, perform a fresh installation on the problem computer with logging
enabled:
1 Uninstall Exaquantum (Uninstalling Exaquantum).
2 Enable installation logging as follows:
a On the problem computer, open a command window.

Chapter 9 Configuration
9.1 Overview
In most straightforward installations little configuration is required to confirm that the
basic system works.
Note: Configuration is necessary to transform the installation into a fully functioning

integrated system, but that does not form part of the installation process.
The following items may need to be configured:
Exaquantum/PIMS server:
After the program has been installed you need to expand the size of the database
(Expanding The Database).
If you are upgrading an existing Exaquantum system that uses domain based
accounts you will have to consider the implications of continuing that way or to use
local groups instead (Using Domain\Local Accounts).
After installing the SQL Server 2000 and service pack, you will need to configure
the memory usage (Configuring SQL Server Memory) and number or licenses
(Setting The Number Of SQL Licenses).
Exaquantum/Web client:
The configuration of Internet Explorer may need to be changed for ActiveX

download, logon access, and proxy servers (Internet Explorer Configuration -
Overview).
For user's convenience, you can arrange for the Exaquantum home page to
automatically open when Internet Explorer is started (Configuring Internet Explorer
Home Page).
Exaquantum/Web server - For installations on Windows Server 2003, some web

security configuration is necessary (Web Server Security Configuration).

9-2 Chapter9 Configuration
9.2 DCOM permissions changes.

This section only applies to Combined Server Install and Data Server Install on the
following platforms:
Windows 2003 SP1
Windows XP SP2
This issue occurs because the default Component Object Model (COM) permissions are
changed in Windows 2003 SP1, and Windows XPSP2. The new COM permissions restrict
remote calls that are not authenticated. The COM program may work locally, but the
remote calls that are not authenticated fail. By default, only members of the Administrators
group have the Remote Activation permission and the Launch permissions. This change
prevents user accounts that do not belong to the Administrators group from starting COM
components.
Resolution
Change DCOM settings as follows
Click Start, point to Administrative Tools, and then click Component Services
Expand the Component Services\Computers container
Right-click My Computer, and then click Properties

On the COM Security tab, click Edit Limits in the Access Permissions area.
Click on QUserGroup and then click Allow for the Remote Access permissions and
click on OK to accept the changes

Click OK from My Computer Properties dialog.

9.3 Accessing Domain Based Group Accounts

By default, Exaquantum uses local group accounts.
This procedure is only applicable when upgrading an existing Exaquantum installation

that uses domain based group accounts. For this to continue working as usual, the
default installation must be modified to use the existing accounts.
This is achieved by adding each of the existing domain based Exaquantum accounts, to
the equivalent new local group based account on each Exaquantum server. The
procedure has to be carried out on each Exaquantum/PIMS or Exaquantum/Web server
that is upgraded.
To configure an Exaquantum server to access the domain based group accounts:
1 Open the Windows Control Panel:
Windows 2000 Click Start - Settings - Control Panel.
Windows 2003 Click Start - Control Panel.
2 In the Control Panel window, open Administrative Tools by double-clicking on its

icon.
3 In the Administrative Tools window, open Computer Management by double-clicking

on its icon.
4 In the Computer Management window, in hierarchy structure on the left-hand side,

open the Local Users and Groups folder.
5 Click on the Groups folder.
6 In the right-hand side, double click on the Exaquantum group account to be configured
7 In the <GroupName> Properties dialog box, click on the Add... button.
8 In the Select Users or Groups dialog box, use the Look in: drop-down list to locate the
domain server hosting the Exaquantum group accounts.
9 In the Name column, click on the domain group with the same name as the workgroup
group you are currently configuring.
10 Click on the Add button.
11 To close the Select Users or Groups dialog box, click on the OK button.
12 To close the <GroupName> Properties dialog box, click on the OK button.

13 Repeat the procedure from step 6 for each group to be configured.
14 When you have configured all the local Exaquantum accounts, close the Computer
Management window.
15 To apply the new configuration, shutdown and re-start the computer.

9.4 Accessing The Domain Quantumuser Account

By default, Exaquantum uses local workgroup based accounts.
This procedure is only applicable when upgrading an existing Exaquantum installation

that uses a domain based Quantumuser account. For this to continue working as usual,
the default installation must be modified to use the existing account.
This is achieved by configuring the Distributed Component Object Model (DCOM)

settings to access the domain based account instead of the default local one. This
procedure has to be carried out on each Exaquantum/PIMS or Exaquantum/Web server
that is upgraded.
The configuration is performed using the QDCOMConfig tool. In a default installation

it will be located in the \Program Files\Yokogawa\Exaquantum PIMS\System folder.
You will need to know the domain name in which the Quantumuser account is
registered.
To configure an Exaquantum server to access the domain based Quantumuser account:
1 In the \Program Files\Yokogawa\Exaquantum PIMS\System folder, locate the file

QDCOMConfig.exe.
2 Run the program by either double-clicking on its icon or by right-clicking on the icon
and selecting Open.
3 Inspect the selection buttons at the bottom to confirm that the type of installation
selected is correct.
4 In the NT Accounts: frame, locate the Exaquantum User frame.
5 In the User name text box, replace the current server name (which is the first item up
to the backslash) with the name of the domain you want to use.
6 In the Password text box, enter the password for the Quantumuser account in that
domain.
7 Do not change any other information.
8 To save the changes and close the QDCOMConfig tool dialog box, click on the OK
button.
9 To ensure that the new settings are fully integrated shutdown the computer and reboot.

Figure 9-1
9.5 Internet Explorer Configuration - Overview

There are three main aspects to configuring the Internet Explorer web browser:
Logon security - the security settings can be changed to prevent the user being
requested to log on to the Exaquantum/Web server (Internet Explorer Logon Security).
ActiveX - to download the ActiveX controls used by the Exaquantum system, some
configuration is necessary (Configuring Internet Explorer Activex Security).
Proxy server - if a web proxy server is being used then the Internet Explorer
connection settings will have to be configured to bypass it (Configuring Internet
Explorer Not To Use A Proxy Server For Exaquantum/Web).
Home page - the browser can be configured to automatically open with the
Exaquantum home page (Configuring Internet Explorer Home Page).

9.6 Configuring Internet Explorer Activex Security

The Exaquantum/Web user interface makes extensive use of ActiveX technology and
scripts.
The ActiveX controls will be downloaded when making a first visit to the
Exaquantumhome web site or by explicit installation from the CD.
Some security settings of Internet Explorer can be configured to prevent the installation of
ActiveX controls and the running of associated scripts.
Tip: The ActiveX controls supplied as part of Exaquantum are signed and are safe for
scripting.
If you have problems installing the Exaquantum/Web client because of security warnings
you may need to change the Internet Explorer security configuration as follows:
The option to "Download signed ActiveX controls" must be set to Enable or Prompt.
The ability to run "Run ActiveX controls and plug-ins" should be set to Enable.
Note: Browser security is a sensitive issue and must be considered as part of the enterprise
wide IT security

9.7 Internet Explorer Logon Security

In some cases, users may be asked to log on to the Exaquantum/Web server the first time
they access it on each session. This will depend on:
the version of Internet Explorer (operating system dependant)
the security configuration of the servers and IT system as a whole
If you want to prevent the logon being requested each time, the security settings for
Internet Explorer can be changed.
The settings affected by the change are stored within the profile of each individual user,
thus, each user needs to make the change, on each computer they will use to access the
Exaquantum/Web server.
The version of Internet Explorer that is provided with Windows Server 2003 has an
enhanced security configuration enabled by default. The configuration change for
Windows 2003 Server is different from Windows 2000 and Windows XP operating
systems.

9.8 Configuring Internet Explorer Proxy Settings

Some IT systems use a web proxy server.
In these cases, the configuration of Internet Explorer will need to be changed in order that
the Exaquantum/Web server can be accessed directly.
Configuring Internet Explorer Not To Use A Proxy Server For Exaquantum/Web
To configure Internet Explorer connections:
Open Internet Explorer.
From the menu, select Tools - Internet Options...
In the Internet Options dialog box, select the Connections tab.
Click on the LAN Settings... button.
The Local Area Network (LAN) Settings dialog box will open.
In the Proxy server frame, if the Use a proxy server for your LAN checkbox is
selected, then ensure that the Bypass proxy server for local addresses is also selected.
To close the The Local Area Network (LAN) Settings dialog box, click on the OK
button.

9.9 Configuring Internet Explorer Home Page

On any computer that will access the Exaquantum/Web server, the browser can be
configured to automatically open the Exaquantum/Web home page.
Because of the way Internet Explorer configuration is stored, this setting is individual for
each user on each client PC.
The following procedure should be carried out by each user on each PC they use.
To configure Internet Explorer to open with the Exaquantum home page:
Open Internet Explorer.
From the menu, select Tools - Internet Options...
In the Internet Options dialog box, display the Home page configuration frame by
clicking on the General tab.
In the Address: box enter the URL of the Exaquantum home page.
Tip: The address of the Exaquantum home page takes the form: http://<exaquantum
web server name>/ExaquantumHome
To set the page as the default, click on the Apply button.
9.10 Adobe Acrobat Reader Installation

In order to view the Exaquantum manuals you need to install a PDF reader program if you
do not already have one. Adobe Acrobat is provided on the Prerequisites CD in the
subfolder called AdbeRdr. Run the Setup.exe program in the AdbeRdr folder and follow
the simple on screen instructions.

9.11 Excel Add-Ins Post Installation Integration

When Excel is installed before the Exaquantum software, the the Excel Add-ins are
automatically installed in the correct location to enable Excel to locate and work with them
in the most efficient way.
The Excel Add-In Files
If Excel was installed after the Exaquantum software, then moving the files to the
appropriate location will have to be carried out manually.
There are three Add-in files provided with Exaquantum that need to be integrated:
Exaquantum Explorer Add-In.xla
Exaquantum Query Add-In.xla
Tag Configuration Viewer.xla
Default Location When Excel Is Installed
Each Excel installation creates a folder dedicated for the use of Add-in software. In a
default installation it is located C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OfficeXX\Library
(where XX will vary depending on the version of Excel installed).
Default Location When Excel Not Present At Installation Time
If Excel is not installed, the Exaquantum installation procedure will be unable to locate the
appropriate folder for the Add-in files, so they will be placed in the Exaquantum PIMS
installation folder. The default installation location will be C:\Program
Files\Yokogawa\Exaquantum PIMS
To enable the Add-ins to be integrated, the three files listed above should be moved to the
Library folder associated with Excel.
Integrating The Add-Ins
Support for Add-ins is part of the Excel software. Please read the Excel Help system for
detailed guidance with installing and integrating Add-ins. Once integrated, the interaction
between Exaquantum and Excel is seamless.
9.12 Expanding The Database

In order to reduce the time taken to install the software, the initial database created is
the minimum size necessary.
In most cases you will need to increase the size of the database before using the
software in an operational environment.

The database size can be managed using either:
The Exaquantum Database Expansion Tool that is installed on the server.
The tools that are provided with the SQL database.
The Exaquantum/PIMS auto-expand facility is disabled by default so that standard

SQL tools can be used to manage the database.
When using the SQL tools to initially expand the database, an absolute size should be
defined in preference to setting a percentage.
Database Size
The size should be dependant upon the archiving strategy, allowing enough space to create
and store archives. It is recommended not to let the Historian database to grow so large
that back-ups take hours to complete.
Using The Exaquantum Database Expansion Tool
All the procedures are performed on the Exaquantum/PIMS server.
There are two main steps:
Step 1 - Before You Start The Expansion
1 It is essential that you first stop the Exaquantum service (Stopping The Exaquantum
Service).
2 In the system tray (bottom right-hand corner of the screen), check that the SQL
database is running:
If it is running then no more action is required.
Figure 9-2
If it is stopped then you will need to start the SQL Server(Starting The SQL
Server).
Figure 9-3

Step 2 - Expanding The Database
1 From the Start menu, selecting Programs Exaquantum - Database Expansion

Tool.
Figure 9-4
2 In the Exaquantum Database Expansion Tool dialog box, the Information frame
shows the current disk usage status.
3 Check the default value in the box Percentage of disk for Exaquantum database is
suitable. If not, type in a new value to suit your requirements.
Tip: After making any changes to the value of Percentage of disk for Exaquantum
database, you must cause the figures to be recalculated by clicking on the Refresh button.
4 To begin the expansion process, click on the Expand button. Alternatively, to close the
Exaquantum Database Expansion Tool without making any changes select Exit.
5 In most cases, a significant expansion in size will take place, which can take several
minutes or more. The exact time will depend on the size of the disk and performance of
the hardware. During this period there will be much disk activity, and the
Exaquantum Database Expansion Tool dialog box will remain open.
Note: If there are any problems during the expansion process, an error message will
report the problem. You should note the details in case you want to report the problem to
Support.
6 When the database expansion is complete a success message will be displayed and the
Exaquantum Database Expansion Tool dialog box will close.

7 That completes the database expansion. Now you need to start the Exaquantum service
(Starting The Exaquantum Service).
Tip: Once the system is running, the size of the database can be controlled more precisely
by using the SQL Enterprise Manager.
9.13 Using Domain\Local Accounts

By default, the installation procedure configures the basic user and group accounts locally
on the installation computer. This is the recommended method. If you are currently using
domain based accounts they you should consider changing to local group accounts by
using the installation defaults.
If you have an existing system that uses a domain to manage any of the accounts, and wish
to continue using that method, you may need to perform some additional configuration.
There following table indicates what changes are required in which circumstances:
Table 9-1

Accounts
Note: If you are upgrading a system that uses the Role Based Name Space feature then
additional changes are required. This topic is beyond the scope of this guide. Please
consult your Yokogawa representative.

Domain Accounts
The default installation of Exaquantum uses local groups to manage the user and group
accounts, however some existing installations may already be using domain based account
management that was supported in earlier versions.
The standard installation creates the Exaquantum accounts as local groups.
To use a Windows domain instead, a set

ofmk:@MSITStore:F:\Exaquantum_Installation_Guide.chm::/Pre-
installation_preparation/Exaquantum_accounts.htm Exaquantum accounts will have to be
created on the domain server.
This procedure is not part of the installation process and is beyond the scope of this
guide. If you wish to create a new installation based on domain managed accounts then
please consult your Yokogawa representative.
If you are upgrading from an earlier version of Exaquantum and wish to continue using
domain based groups, perform a standard installation. After the installation process is
complete, configure each server to use domain accounts.
Synchronisation
It is important that the various servers within the system remain synchronised (Server
Time Synchronisation). If all the machines are in the same domain, then this will happen
automatically.

Local Group Accounts
Access
By default, the user and group accounts for Exaquantum are set up and managed on a local
group basis. The appropriate account details are created locally on each server as required.
In the case of a default installation, the basic set of accounts will automatically be
created if they do not already exist.
The account details and password on each computer must be kept identical.
When the RBNS (Role Based Name Space) feature is used, the additional accounts
will also have to set up and administered on each server.
Synchronisation
It is important that the various servers within the system remain synchronised (Server
Time Synchronisation). In a workgroup only environment, each Exaquantum/PIMS server
will need to be configured with the name of a server to be used as a source of time
information.
9.14 Web Server Security Configuration

When the Exaquantum/Web server is installed on a computer running Windows Server
2003, some additional configuration is necessary before it will work.
Note: This procedure is only required for Windows Server 2003 running IIS v6.0.
To configure the security settings:
1 From the Windows Start menu, open the Control Panel.
2 Locate the Administrative Tools and open it by double-clicking on the icon.
3 Locate the Internet Information Service (IIS) Manager and open it by double-clicking
on the icon.

5 In the pane on the right, select All Unknown ISAPI Extensions, and click on the Allow
button.
6 In the pane on the right, select Active Server Pages, and click on the Allow button.
7 Close the Internet Information Service (IIS) Manager.
The configuration is complete.

9.15 Configuring SQL Server Memory

Before installing the Exaquantum/PIMS server software, you must specify the amount of
memory to be used by Microsoft SQL Server 2000.
To configure the Microsoft SQL Server 2000 memory usage:
1 From the Windows Start menu, select Programs - Microsoft SQL Server - Enterprise
Manager to open the SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Manager window.
2 Expand the Tree view under the Microsoft SQL Servers until you locate the (local)

6 In the Memory tab page, select the Use a fixed memory size (MB) option.
7 Use the associated slider control to specify 1/3 of the available physical memory
(shown on the right).
8 Select OK to apply the settings.
9 Close the SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Manager window.

9.16 Setting The Number Of SQL Licenses

After the SQL installation procedure the default number of SQL licenses is set to 1.
You will need to increase this number to reflect the number of SQL Licences you
purchased with the Exaquantum system.
The number of licenses purchased is noted in the Exaquantum Licence certificate provided
with the software.
To set the number of SQL licenses:
1 Open the Windows Control Panel.
2 Locate the SQL Server 2000 Licensing Setup icon and double-click to open it.
3 In the Choose Licensing Mode dialog box change the number of licenses to the
correct number.
4 Close the Choose Licensing Mode dialog box by clicking on the Continue button.
5 Close the Control Panel.

Chapter 10 Checking The Installation

10.1 Overview
There are four main component types that can be checked before moving on to configure
the Exaquantum system for use in the working environment.
You should confirm some basic functionality works before starting full system integration,
configuration and testing.
Checking The Exaquantum/PIMS Server
Checking The Exaquantum/Web Server
Checking The Exaquantum/Explorer Client
Checking The Exaquantum/Web Client
10.2 Checking The Exaquantum/PIMS Server

The Exaquantum/PIMS server gathers data and makes it available directly for the use of
Exaquantum/Explorer clients, or indirectly via the Exaquantum/Web server for

11.1 Upgrading From A Previous Version
To upgrade from a previous version of Exaquantum is a two stage process:
Uninstall the existing software.
Install the new version of Exaquantum software.
Server - The procedure is the same as that in the Reinstalling The Server Software section.
Client - The procedure is the same as that in the Reinstalling The Client Software section.
11.2 Adding Web Server

If you want to add the Exaquantum/Web feature to an existing Exaquantum/PIMS Server
installation there are two options (Web Server Deployment Options):
Exaquantum/PIMS and Exaquantum/Web servers combined on a single computer
1 The existing Exaquantum/PIMS server installation will have to be uninstalled, see

section Uninstalling Exaquantum.
2 Take Database Precautions to ensure the safety of the data.
3 Check for the prerequisite software. See section Combined Server Prerequisites.
4 Perform a reinstallation of the server software (Reinstalling The Server Software), but
choose to install a combined server (Web Server Deployment Options).
Exaquantum/Web installed on a different computer
1 Perform a standard installation (Installation Procedures Overview) for

Exaquantum/Web on the new computer, including any prerequisites (Exaquantum/Web
Server Prerequisites).

11-2 Chapter11 Changes To An Existing Installation
11.3 Reinstalling The Server Software

The following issues need to be considered first:
Database - If the installation is already in service, with an existing database that needs
to be retained, follow the procedures for database precautions (Database Precautions).
Computer name:
If the reinstallation is on a computer with the same name - you can reinstall the
server software (Reinstalling The Server Software) with no impact on the
configuration of the rest of the system.
If the installation is to a computer with a different name - there are implications for
data embed in the database that will need to be resolved. Consult with your
Yokogawa representative.
In addition, after the new server is commissioned, each client will need to be reconfigured
to access a different server.
RBNS - If the Role Based Name Space (Role Based Name Space) feature is being
used, there are implications for the group account details stored in the database.
Consult with your Yokogawa representative.
To reinstall the server software please refer to the following sections:
1 If the database has to be preserved, follow the advice in the topic Database Precautions
2 Uninstalling Exaquantum
3 Installation Overview
4 If the server has a new name, reconfigure the clients to access a different server
11.4 Reinstalling The Client Software

To reinstall the client software please refer to the following sections:
1 Uninstalling Exaquantum
2 Installation Overview

11.5 Database Precautions

There are occasions when you need to run the installation procedure on a computer with
Exaquantum already installed. For example when upgrading to a later version or adding
new components.
In these types of situation, you will probably want to retain the existing data.
There are two precautions to take:
Back up the existing database using the methods suggested in the Exaquantum
Engineering Guide Vol. 1.
During the installation procedure, in the Database Creation dialog box (Exaquantum
Database Creation), ensure that the Overwrite existing database checkbox is not
selected.
11.6 Recovering From A Failed Installation

In the case of an installation that fails for any reason, it is important to ensure that
subsequent attempts are not corrupted by the existing files. In order to avoid corruption,
we recommend that the faulty installation be completely removed before attempting a new
installation.
See the Installation Troubleshooting chapter for further details.
