TestStand Activated Deployed System reset to Evaluation Development System

We have a test system which has TestStand with an activated deployed license. The test system has not been in use for a while and as some new units are due in to be tested, it was powered-on. The original mouse on the system had gone missing, so a new one was fitted instead. Windows saw this as a hardware change.
When TestStand ran, it loaded the TestStand Evaluation Development system instead of the deployed system.
Looking at the License Manager, there does not seem to be any way of disabling the Evaluation, (until it expires in 30 days), and using the deployed system, (which it shows as activated).
Any suggestions ?

Thanks for that.
I have deactivated and reactivated the deployment license and that stops the Evaluation box displaying when I select the icon for the Operator Interface for my sequence.
However, have noticed that the Evaluation Full Development Teststand is still there if I select the Sequence Editor, (at least for the next 5 days).
This is not a big problem, but I am concerned that in the future if someone uses a different mouse/keyboard then this problem will reappear.
It sound like a TestStand bug, as it should at least give you the option of not enabling the Evaluation Development system if the hardware 'changes'.

  • Could not retrieve deployment system configuration

    I use NWDS 7.1 and i want to deploy an external deployable archieve file,when i deploy , i get error says that "Could not retrieve deployment system configuration for ABP"
    Before that, i made settings under SAP AS Java by adding new SAP system, giving  hostname and instance number . I managed to add new SAP server successfully...
    Is there another settings that i forgot..and settings of editon 7.1 is different from 7.0...because in 7.0 it ask me hostname and MESSAGE SERVER PORT..
    What can i do ?
    Thanks a lot..

    The problem I faced was related but just slightly different - solution is below.  This is really only an issue if your AS Java server is on a different server than your NWDS and a firewall is active.

    Issue is a firewall problem.  Solution  is:
    1) remove default SAP AS Java from NW Developer Studio (Windows -> Preferences -> SAP AS Java
    2) shutdown NWDS
    3) open ports 50113 (port for instance 1), 50013 (port for instance 0), 50004 (deploy port) and 5000 (http for NWASJAVA) on the AS Java server.
    4) open NWDS
    5) add SAP AS Java in NWDS (Windows -> Preferences -> SAP AS Java: host - 192.168.1.16, instance - 1, Domain - Default
    6) add SAP AS Java in NWDS (Windows -> Preferences -> SAP AS Java: host - 192.168.1.16, instance - 0, Domain - Default
    7) publish ear.
    8) navigate to: http://192.168.1.16:50000/ConverterWeb/
    obviously you'll need to replace the internal ip with the ip of your server.
    I think this firewall info is somewhere in the docs.

  • Error: Could not retrieve deployment system configuration

    Hi,
    when I'm trying to list deployed components in the deployment perspective of my NW Developer Studio (7.2), I get the following error. It seems that the NW server is not reachable, but I had a look at the management console on the server - everything is running.
    Exception occurred during the 'List Components' operation.
    Cause:Could not retrieve deployment system configuration for CE1. Please check if the system is running.
    Exception:

    In addition, I noticed that if I add the NW server in the developer studio (preferences > SAP Java AS), only on server instance is listed (SCS01). Normally (after NW installation), two instances have been listed there.
    The error prevents to deploy anything from within the developer studio. Does anyone have a clue about that? Thanks in advance!

  • HOST command does not seem to work in deployment system

    I am developing forms software for a SUSE Linux system, but the HOST command does not seem to operate correctly when used in conjunction with Application Server.
    All I am trying to do is launch Adobe Acrobat reader as a background job using the command :-
    HOST('/opt/Adobe/Reader8/bin/acroread &');
    but nothing seems to happen.
    If I enter the command :-
    */opt/Adobe/Reader8/bin/acroread &*
    directly from a shell window (using the same login account) the command works correctly.
    I have tried other commands e.g. directory listings etc and all seem to have the same problem.
    Furthermore when the same form is run from the development environment using "Internet Developer Suite" it operates correctly with no problems.
    I am running on a deployment system where all three tiers of oracle are on the same machine (i.e. Database, AS and web front end).
    Can anybody suggest any possible causes or anything I can try to help resolve this problem ?

    brian_a_j wrote:
    Although I still dont understand why HOST would not work given my configuration (the Application Server and Web Browser operate on the same machine).One little test, put the execution command in a shell script and try to execute the script with the HOST command instead of the command itself.
    Using HOST the script will be executed on the AS machine no matter from where it is executed.

  • How to include NI-SPY in the Deployment system

    Hello,
    I would like to include the NiSpy in the deployment system I'm making. I included all the files in the 'C:\Program Files\National Instruments\NI Spy' directory and the 'nispylog.dll' located in the 'c:\winNT\system32\' directory.
    The program is running when called, however when I select the 'Start Capture' (blue arrow) I get the following error message: 'NI Spy could not enable capturing because no API is selected. Please select at least one API from the Spy menu and try again. If there are no APIs' listed under the Spy menu, reinstall the National instruments driver software to fix this problem''
    Can you advice me how to solve this problem?
    a) Which files are missing?
    b) If I want to install Ni Spy alone, how to do that?
    Thanks
    Rafi

    Rafi -
    NISpy has an installer and I would recommend using it instead of trying to figure out the files to install manually. The DriverCD that comes with TestStand contains the installer and it is typically located on disk2 at \components\visa\ni-spy\NISpy.msi. I suspect that various NI drivers also install support for their APIs, so using their installers would be appropriate.

  • I/o server shared variable not working in deployment system ( error no-1950679034 (0x8BBB0006) (Warning))

    Hello ,
             am using shared variable from opc client in labview when am run a exe file at development system its working fine but when am running it in deployment system its not working am using same configuration file in opc server at development and deployment system error -1950679034 (0x8BBB0006) (Warning)

    First Root cause needs to be identified before any actions.
    I would suggest first check if you can access the shared variable hosted in PC from RT using other ways like using SVE API (Logos and PS protocols, Datasocket etc..)
    Check if antivirus or firewall is playing...
    Check the same experiment with some other PC if you can.
    You can also try creating another Shared Variable in RT and binding the same to the PC and try to access it...
    Since you have did all the reinstallations already

  • Best approach for adding configurations to deployed system

    I have been using Property Loader steps to accomplish three things on a deployed system:
    Define equipment ID,s calibration, slots, etc. for the hardware of the deployed system
    Define behavior for the deployed system station (paths, test multiple versions of a module or only the most recent, allow x seconds for UUT boot up time)
    Define limits for the multiple versions of a module (K uses board 1, M uses board 2, each with different images for connection instructions, each version has a combination of software revisions and a different path to find the software to load to the module, component limits may change with each rev)
    We need to load all these properties because we intend to build a duplicate of the system and once it's on the production floor we are not allowed to change it without going through a lengthy verification and validation process.
    I am finding that especially items 2 and 3 are cumbersome to maintain and may actually work against my intent - each time a new rev or behavior is needed, I have to build a new deployment containing the latest information. I've come to the conclusion that I need to provide a utility to change these settings on the fly, so that the utility can be validated once and the settings can be changed and confirmed for future releases without requiring a new deployment to be built.
    Ideally what I would like to do is:
    Read the current file (which is in Property Loader format)
    Display a UI showing the current file contents
    Allow the user to change the contents
    Provide Save command to change the file, or Save As command to write a copy of the file (for new revs of the same module). Keep these files in the same Poperty Loader format.
    My questions:
    Is this achievable in TestStand only?
    If not, what would be best practice?
    Should I switch to INI files so I can use the Write and ReadEx methods, and if so, how does one write/read multiple variable mixed between FileGlobals and StationGlobals?
    Thanks in advance!
    Gizmogal

    Hi,
    If you have validation requirements I think you definitely want to isolate and minimize just the part that changes, and separate that from the validated, unchanging part. Sounds like you are doing that. I also think separating the "station" properties from test-related "limits" properties makes sense.
    You should be able to swap out property files without doing a deployment. In the part where you said, "Ideally what I would like," you have two choices in implemeting that. 1) translate the property loader file to the UI, then back again as you describe. or 2) write your own property loader. Many have done this. You get the Property Loader source code with TestStand, I've written a couple in LabVIEW. You can make either tool available in the Configure or the Tools menu.
    The difference between property loader and Write and ReadEx is, I think, Write and ReadEx serializes a single property, which is usually a container. Property loader recurses through a bunch of containers in a bunch of steps. Also the file formats are different. I use both depending on the project. If you look in the process model sequences you can see that Write and ReadEx is used to copy values between Locals and Parameters of different sequences. Maybe you could use those for StationGlobals and FileGlobals and Property Loader for steps.

  • Understand​ing TestStand Debug Deployment License

    After reading the License Agreement and the TestStand Help section on licenses I still would like an explanation as to exactly what the license does and does not allow. My understanding is with a TestStand Debug/Deployment license I can install TestStand on a machine, let's call it the development machine, and also install TestStand on another machine, my production machine. The development machine is where I would develop applications to deploy onto my production machine. The production machine is where I would actually test my products. The production machine can also be used as a platform to debug my deployed applications. If this is true then can I develop any additional tests on the production machine, e.g. I found a problem in the sequence so I need to add a new sequence to correct the error? Or I found a problem with a LabVIEW VI and I need to create a new VI to correct it. Can I develop VI's and sequences on the production machine or do I need to develop on the development machine transfer the files over to the production machine and hope it works (this type of process could prove to be very time consuming and tedious)?

    Thanks for the info. Now what about LabVIEW. Here are some options I'm considering:
    1. Run a LabVIEW Runtime Engine on the production machine and a FDS of LabVIEW on the development machine. In turn run a TestStand Deployment license on the production machine. This seems the most cost effective method. The problem I'm having is some VI's are developed in LabVIEW 6i, 7.0, and 7.1 and the LabVIEW 7.0 RT Engine does not work with TestStand 3.1. It seems only the LabVIEW 7.1 RT Engine will work with TestStand 3.1. But I don't have a LabVIEW 7.1 development license (not sure how the 7.1 VI's came to be, before my time). I've also thought of using standalone LabVIEW applications but the only license I have for Application Builder is from LabVIEW 6i PDS from the Developer's Suite. If TestStand 3.1 is suppose to work with any LabVIEW RT engine then I'm doing something wrong.
    2. Run a LabVIEW Development/Deployment license with a TestStand Development/Deployment license. This is the most expensive method but the easiest to implement.
    3. Run a LabVIEW FDS and a TestStand Deployment license on the production machine.
    A finally question, does NI make available a TestStand Run-time Engine that is available as a free download, similar to the LabVIEW Run-Time Engine?

  • Doing Active Directory System Discovery security roles

    Hi Experts
    I am assigning users who have specific roles in SCCM2012 (Reporting, application management etc) , they are not assigned with permissions which is the same as Full Administrator or Operation Manager.

  • Error while activating source system

    Dear friends,
    I am getting Error ' Basic type does not exit'  while activating source system in RSA1.
    please give the solution .
    Regards,
    D.prabhu

    Hello,
    this is due to incomplete partner profiles;
    When createing your source system you have to ensure that your source system is open for modifications (transaction SCC4) and that you have administrative rights in this system. Indeed the creation of a source system will create all partners profiles in both systems thus the source system needs to be open for modification.
    ensure this and "restore" your source system from RSA1
    hope this helps...

  • ThinkVantage Active Protection System Dissapeared after Win 8.1 Upgrade

    The ThinkVantage Active Protection System dissapeared from my ThinkPads after upgrading to Win 8.1.
    I was going to reinstall it from the Lenovo ThinkVantage page but the Win 8 64bit version is not available for download.
    Oddly enough, the 32bit version is available.
    Is this a temporary situation?  Will there be a Win 8.1 version?
    Can someone from Lenovo explain what to expect?

    OK, Active Protection 64 bit for Win 8.1 is now available for download and working great!

  • ThinkPad X60 Replacement Hard Drive - Will free fall sensor work with Active Protection System?

    I plan to replace the OEM hard drive on my ThinkPad X60 with a Western Digital Scorpio Black drive. I found a board posting on Scott Mueller's Upgrading and Repairing Forum site that seems to indicate that APS will work with this drive. Here is my question: Is there any point in purchasing the drive with the free fall sensor option? (This is more expensive than the drive without the sensor.)  Will this provide any additional protection above and beyond the Active Protection System. Will the internal free fall sensor in the drive be compatible with APS?  In other words, should I buy a Scorpio Black with or without the free fall sensor?
    Thanks!

    Welcome to the forum!
    If I were buying a replacement drive, I'd get one without a sensor, but that's me.
    Having seen way too many laptops that have gone through a real "free fall" I'll say that a damaged hard drive in such an event is usually the least of one's problems...
    Good luck.
