I would like to know if any one is doing remote Sys Admin Work on the Deployment Server, like small ESU's application and Full Package builds and such and what remote Software Access is being used.
We are a Remote site connected directly through WAN to our primary One World Installation. (Fractional T3 Line).
User’s are going to connect to One World either through Citrix or HTML
Developers are given PC Anywhere access for developing One World Applications.
We use PC Anywhere for Heavy Clients to access through the WAN. It is a little slow but it is ok to do development work in One World. Draw back is that each developer should have a dedicated Work station assigned to him for him to PC anywhere to it.
We are using Danware's Netop Remote Software for Full package build on the Deployment server. We have found no issues at all to use this software to access the Deployment Server and apply small ESU's like 1099 and such and for full package builds. (We tried using PC Anywhere to do full package builds but it always fails on the step for Package build definition where we have to choose the language. hence we opted for Danware's Netop which has been working flawlessly for the last 1.5 to 2 years.)
And I know that there is another Remote Software Called ControlIT which I remember JDE prefers to use. Now it is called Unicenter Remote Control by Computer Associates. We have not tried it and would like to hear some experiences on this.
I also know about Netmeeting and VNC. Here is my take on those. These are just my experiences and they could be different for others.
Netmeeting: It is ok to use it occasionally for Update packages on the Fat Clients but not all the time as I have seen at times that Netmeeting acts very weird by not showing the mouse and hence becomes very difficult to know what we are clicking on the screen.
VNC: Free Software but is very very slow and hogs a lot of system resources over time have to keep restarting this service so that it does not degrade over time.
I know that this has been covered by this forum about a year ago.
I wanted to know of any new developments in this area and how other companies/people are doing remote admin work if any?
1) What Remote software is being used for ESU's and Full Package Builds? On the Deployment Server.
2) What software is being used to Develop One World Applications remotely?
3) What is the preference for Building Full Packages on? Deployment Server or Fat Client? Reasons?
4) What does JDE really support? in terms of remote Software? ControlIT/Unicenter Remote control, PC Anywhere, Netop?
5) ControlIT or Unicenter Remote Control Experiences.
Any information in the above regard will be highly appreciated.
