Installation of QuadriDCM requires internet access to a Microsoft site for downloading Microsoft Web Deploy service. Alternatively, download from the link below and install it before you continue: http://download.microsoft.com/download/8/9/B/89B754A5-56F7-45BD-B0748974FD2039AF/WebDeploy_2_10_amd64_en-US.msi QuadriDCM requires access to this later during upcoming upgrades. So do not remove this web deploy service. 4.7 Windows Update Please run Windows Update, install all updates and if needed restart the server before continuing. 4.8 Active Directory as source for user accounts During installation of QuadriDCM, you can decide to use Active Directory as source for user accounts, and not the user account system embedded in QuadriDCM. If you select AD as source for users, QMM and Novapoint will connect to AD every time necessary. No users from AD will be stored in the QuadriDCM database and no synchronization between QuadriDCM and AD is necessary. If you have decided to use Active Directory as source for user accounts, three issues must be clarified before the system is ready for use. 4.8.1 Know the connection parameters for AD To complete the installation you will need to know: 1. Name or IP-address of the server hosting Active Directory 2. Port on the server hosting Active Directory (default is 389) 3. LDAP user, a user in Active directory that has access to browse the content of Active Directory. 4. Password of the LDAP user This knowledge is essential to carry out the initial installation and configuration. 4.8.2 Create the group ‘QMM Users’ in AD QuadriDCM Model Manager is a web-application designed to administer the QuadriDCM installation. If you have decided to use Active Directory as source for user accounts, you have to create a group in AD called ‘QMM Users’ and add users that should be able to sign in to QMM. All users in the QMM Users group will be able to sign in to QMM with their AD credentials. 4.8.3 Clarify which users in AD who should be possible to authorize for QuadriDCM use Before this QuadriDCM installation can be ready for use there must be possible to authorize selected users from the specified Active Directory. It is most likely that the specified AD contains many users that are not candidate for authorization as QuadriDCM user. To be able to specify a suitable filter on the Active Directory content you should know how the content of Active Directory is organized. © Vianova Systems AS QuadriDCM Page 14 Date: 24/06/2016 Quadri DCM It is possible to postpone this particular step in configuration process so this knowledge is not essential to be able to carry out the initial installation and configuration. 5. Install QuadriDCM Embedded Database Server Right-click QuadriDCM Embedded DB server 11.2.0.4.msi in the folder where QuadriDCM Embedded DB server 11.2.0.4.zip was unzipped and select “Run as Administrator”.

Click ‘Parameters’ button a) Specify the application name if you don’t want to use the default name ‘quadri’. Be aware that if an optional Application Group is specified in 3 Set up path to Quadri Model Manager (QMM). then this application group will used in addition to the Application name here. Allowed characters are lowercase letters ‘a – z’, digits ‘0 – 9’ and special character ‘–‘and ‘_’. b) Specify server alias if you don’t want to use the default alias ‘QuadriDCM’ © Vianova Systems AS QuadriDCM Page 20 Date: 24/06/2016 Quadri DCM c) If you don’t want to make logs from the server side available for clients, remove check for ‘Allow Server Logs’ d) Click OK button to apply the changes. Unless you have several QuadriDCM installation that due to technical issues needs to be separated by unique application names we recommends that you use the default application name ‘quadri’. Server alias is used as a “friendly name” in the client for the connection data that points to this specific QuadriDCM installation. This replace the IP-address, port, application name etc. in the user interface. Allow server logs creates a Virtual Directory that makes it possible to download trace logs from the server side from the clients in the context of crash reporting. 2. Select the source for the user accounts – ‘QuadriDCM Users’ (embedded user accounts) or Active Directory If you select ‘QuadriDCM Users’ you should drop the next step and continue at step 0 If you select QuadriDCM users, the user accounts have to be created in QMM. If you select Active Directory, you get the user accounts from a specified Active Directory server. 3. Click ‘AD Values’ © Vianova Systems AS QuadriDCM Page 21 Date: 24/06/2016 Quadri DCM Specify parameters to create a connection to, and to browse Active Directory (Host, Port, LDAP User and password). These are the values you found in 4.8.1 Know the connection parameters for AD. In this step you specify parameters to fetch those user accounts from Active Directory that can potentially be authorized as project collaborators, and perform modelling in a shared model hosted by this QuadriDCM installation. a) LDAP Base: The dn of the entry at which to start the search for users in Active Directory © Vianova Systems AS QuadriDCM Page 22 Date: 24/06/2016 Quadri DCM b) Filter: LDAP search filter as defined in RFC2254 This link http://help.novapoint.com/doku.php?id=en:np:server:qmm:admin:ldap_parameters:start contains more info about the parameters. You may probably have to tweak on this parameters to get the wanted result. Moreover, even modify the grouping of users in Active directory. Therefore, you may consider postponing this step until you have finished the installation and initial configuration of QuadriDCM and configure this in QMM. Sign in to QMM and select the Admin tab and Ldap Parameters. 4. Specify a password for the user account “admin”. Specify the password to use for the user account ‘admin’ The Password must be between 8 and 50 characters long and have at least three out of four of these characters: lowercase, uppercase, digit and special character. Special characters are the following: #!@$%&'()*+,-./;:<>=?_{}|. Dependent of whether you configure QuadriDCM to use Active Directory or not the use of this password is slightly different. a) If user source is ‘QuadriDCM Users’ then this password must be used when you start up and sign in to QMM as the only account that are authorized to use QMM is the ‘admin’ account. On some major irreversible actions, like deleting a model this password must be used to confirm the selected action. b) If user source is ‘Active Directory’, this password must also be used to confirm major irreversible action like deleting a model. 5. Please write down the admin-password and deliver the information to the person(s) who are going to manage the models in this QuadriDCM installation. 6. Click the ‘QuadriDCM’ button and wait for the QuadriDCM configuration to complete. A new QuadriDCM application is now created. An Internet Explorer instance with the QuadriDCM Model Manager site (aka QMM) will be started if the installation is successful.
