The station settings wizard is the control center setting and monitoring all stations and sessions. Here, all computers or sessions are displayed, which are logged on to Beas. Furthermore, the following functions are available:

 

- View and manage stations (name, location, description).

- Manage stations (display total and remaining memory, disk space).

- Terminal: set up which functions are available (right-click menu or button below).

 

Via this the management and also the support of the existing PC's will be greatly simplified. The station name, location and a description can be adjusted.

Window settings and Templates are supported.

For field descriptions see Edit work station.

 

hmtoggle_plus1Determination Station name

All Beas sessions need a unique station name. The BIOS name of the current computer is read out when Beas is installed locally.

 

The clientname environment variable is read and used if it is a terminal server.

The current Windows user (username Environment variable) is used as the station name if the sessionname environment variable begins with rdp or ica.

 

The optimal setup for a remote server is the following:

The sessionname environment variable begins with rdp or ica.
The Windows user must be unique and stored in the username environment variable.

 

Retrieves the NetBIOS name of the local computer. This name is established at system startup, when the system reads it from the registry.

GetComputerName retrieves only the NetBIOS name of the local computer (..).

The behavior of this function can be affected if the local computer is a node in a cluster.

For more information, see ResUtilGetEnvironmentWithNetName and UseNetworkName.

Via beas Script the station name can be queried as follows

 

messagebox=<stationname> -> the station name, which beas is using

messagebox=<global:system_computername> -> Computer name from GetComputerName()

 

 

Note:

The entry of the own station will be selected automatically at opening of the list.

 

API and FTP settings

hmtoggle_plus1Data connection

Field

Description

License server

Port address of the license server. Must only be specified if there are multiple license servers in the server infrastructure or the license server is not found.

DI-API-SQL-Driver

SQL driver which should be used for connection to the DI API. Only change if the automatic setting does not work.

Best setting is "Automatic"

B1 API User

Must normally be the SAP manager, as this account is also used to perform administrative functions such as database adaptations.

SBO API Set Password

The password for the DI API user

SBO API Test

Tests the connection to the DI API

Important: If beas is started within SAP, a SAP-internal connection to the DI API is established. If beas is started without SAP or a data check is performed BEFORE login, a separate connection is established. This can be tested here.

Program server

Location at which beas is installed on the server.

Normally \\<servername\b1_shr

Beas checks whether an upgrade is available in this directory.

If you do not want this check to be performed, enter "no" here.

hmtoggle_plus1FTP

The FTP connection is set up in this area. Setting is only necessary if the basic configuration does not work.

 

Field

Description

Account

Your user name for access to the Beas support server. So far no services have yet been offered. For this reason the field must be empty.

Password

Password for this account. Leave blank generally.

FTP address

Address of the FTP server. Leave blank generally so that the default address is used.

Passive mode

Passive mode is used.

Passive use host address

Only visible in passive mode. Please only configure for problems.

 

(Extract from documentation of Chilkat FTP client)

This can handle problems that may arise when an FTP server is located behind a NAT router. FTP servers respond to the PASV command by sending the IP address and port where it will be listening for the data connection. If the control connection is SSL encrypted, the NAT router is not able to convert from an internal IP address (typically beginning with 192.168) to an external address. When set to 1, PassiveUseHostAddr property tells the FTP client to discard the IP address part of the PASV response and replace it with the IP address of the already-established control connection. The default value of this property is 0.

Port

If the default port should not be used, the port can be specified here manually.

Proxy mode

Is there a proxy server? If so, the type can be configured here. On activation, all other proxy properties are displayed.
