RMS Configuration

Overview

NOVARA 3000-series ControlPads can connect to a Resource Management Suite
execute control functions, create macros containing those control functions, and schedule the execution of the macros.
Connecting to RMS involves installing a proxy, called the CP-RMS application, directly onto the RMS server or on a PC.
The proxy serves as a gateway between the ControlPads and the RMS server. There is no user interface available for the
proxy, so when the proxy is installed on a PC, you must use telnet to view the proxy debug logs. The CP-RMS is a
service that you must manually start after you install and configure it. Afterward, it automatically starts if you reboot the
PC.
The CP-RMS proxy is designed to work with RMS 3.3 or higher and requires you
have the latest version of Java loaded on your PC. The CP-RMS proxy is intended for
use with 32-bit servers only.
When upgrading the CP-RMS proxy, you should always shut down the CP-RMS
proxy service prior to upgrading.
The following table lists the operating systems compatible with the CP-RMS application:
Supported Operating Systems
• Windows Server 2003 English
• Windows Server 2003 German
• Windows Server 2003 Italian
• Windows Server 2008 English
• Windows Server 2008 German

Installation Checklist

CP-RMS Proxy Installation Checklist
• Ensure you have the latest version of Java installed on the RMS server or the PC.
• Install the CP-RMS application using the CPRMS.msi file and follow the installation instructions.
• Edit the config.properties file to include the default RMS server IP address, the proxy telnet port, and the proxy telnet
debug level.
• Edit the config.properties file to add the IP addresses of any ControlPads you want to track in RMS.
Note: Your zero-configuration client automatically discovers any ControlPads residing on the same subnet as your CP-
RMS application. This step is only necessary if you want the ControlPads to use static IP addresses, or the
ControlPads are on a different subnet from the CP-RMS application.
