Intelli-M Access takes advantage of multiple processors and expanded memory. For extremely large systems, the database server
and reporting services can be moved to another server to improve performance. For specific recommendations, please contact
infinias.
1.1.4 Software
Intelli-M Access requires key components available with or for advanced Microsoft Windows operating systems including:
•
IIS
(Internet Information Server) - Microsoft web server resident in Windows. This server is used to provide Intelli-M Access
web pages to any standard browser. IIS must be activated before installing Intelli-M Access.
•
Message Queueing
- By using transaction server, Intelli-M Access delivers an asynchronous message queuing architecture
designed to be robust, highly scalable and resilient to spikes in demand. Like IIS, Message Queueing must be activated before
installing Intelli-M Access.
•
Reporting Services
- Reporting Services is installed with the SQL Server Advanced Services package provided by infinias.
It provides reporting capabilities. Both reports and badges are delivered through Reporting Services. To design reports,
download and install Report Builder, a free tool from Microsoft.
•
SQL Server
- Intelli-M Access uses version 2008 or newer, and will automatically install the 32-bit version of SQL Server
2008 R2 with Advanced Services if a compatible version of SQL Server is not already installed. Intelli-M Access also requires
Microsoft SQL Reporting Services, a part of the SQL Server installation, to be installed.
All required software packages, including SQL Server 2008, will be automatically configured during the installation process. Refer to
the installation chapter for more information.
1.2 Version 4.0 license
The new Intelli-M Access V4.0 licensing system requires the Intelli-M Access server to be connected to the internet during the
license activation phase. If the server is not or cannot be connected to the Internet, contact infinias to help you activate your system.
The new license key consists of a License Key string and a Password string – each string is 6 or 7 characters long. Keys used to
activate Intelli-M Access V3.x and earlier systems are incompatible with V4. However, as with previous versions of Intelli-M Access,
if you are installing Intelli-M Access as a new install, or as an update to an Intelli-M Access V3.x or older system, a 30-day trial key
