Preface
Purpose
The purpose of this document is to describe I/A Series software installation on Windows worksta-
tions and servers. I/A Series software v8.8 software is not supported on Solaris stations.
I/A Series software v8.8 delivers optional enhanced security features for the I/A Series system that
facilitates meeting client and government specifications, for example, North American Electric
Reliability Corporation (NERC) standards.
During a Day 0 software installation, you will have an option of choosing to install the Security
Enhanced (SE) I/A Series software v8.8, which requires Microsoft Active Directory® network ser-
vices, or standard I/A Series software v8.8 without the security enhancements. Depending on
your environment, you may not be able to take advantage of security enhanced I/A Series software
v8.8, for example, if you need to allow an older third-party application to run that has not been
rewritten to work in the secure environment.
Revision Information

NOTE
In this document, the term “workstation” can refer to both desktop workstations
and servers in an I/A Series system.
Installation Concepts
Starting with I/A Series software v8.8, the concept of installation has changed from a granular
model to a more comprehensive model. (Note that this section refers to installation on a new
workstation/server, rather than an upgrade to an existing Foxboro Evo or I/A Series software
installation.)
I/A Series software v8.7 and earlier had the concept of “selected package installation”, which
allowed each software package which was part of the I/A Series software to be installed separately -
for example, each package might be on a separate diskette, and only the diskettes you wanted
installed on a workstation/server could be provided during the installation.
In I/A Series software v8.8 and later, the installation process is more automated, providing more
flexibility to allow the appropriate system configuration application to determine which packages
are required for a workstation/server. Typically, the process works as follows:
1. The Foxboro system configuration application creates Commit media which specifies
which packages are to be installed on each workstation/server.
2. All packages, with the exception of the OS1FDB package, are provided on the instal-
lation DVD. The OS1FDB has several variations, and so the appropriate variation
must be selected
1
B0700SF – Rev E 1. Software Installation Overview
3. When run, the installation application installs the appropriate packages. If there are
any Device Integrator modules configured, then the OS1FDB media will be requested
individually per letterbug. A different set of OS1FDB media can be chosen for each
letterbug or this can be skipped per letterbug.
After the installation is complete, you can perform these installation tasks on the existing Foxboro
Evo or I/A Series software:
 Perform a Day 1 operation, which adds packages or updates the software configura-
tion based on changes from the system configuration application.
If you skipped the installation of the OS1FDB package, you can add it with this
operation.
 Perform a Repair operation, to verify that all files are present and not corrupted, and
applying updates and fixes as needed.
The method of upgrading to a new version of Foxboro Evo or I/A Series software differs signifi-
cantly depending from which version you are upgrading, and to which version you are upgrading.
For example, the upgrade from I/A Series software v8.5 to I/A Series software v8.7 is a Release
Update, which updates existing software packages but does not add any new packages.
Also, be aware of that for I/A Series software v8.8, serial alarm printers are no longer supported.

Overview of Supported Software Installations

The I/A Series software v8.8 release supports seven different types of software installations.
Understanding and selecting the appropriate installation is a very important and is required prior
to beginning the I/A Series software v8.8 installation to your stations.
2
1. Software Installation Overview B0700SF – Rev E
 Standard I/A Series software installation - The standard I/A Series software is for sys-
tems that do not require Microsoft® Active Directory Domain Controllers. The same
standard installation is applied to all I/A workstations. For I/A Series software v8.8,
there is only one procedure for installing this software on a workstation or server.
Unlike the I/A Series software v8.6 and v8.7, I/A Series software v8.8 is not an
“upgrade” on top of I/A Series software v8.5. I/A Series software v8.8 must be
installed as a new image on a station which supports Windows 7 or Windows Server
2008 R2 Standard.
 Security-Enhanced (SE) I/A Series software installation - Security-Enhanced (SE)
I/A Series software are used on systems that require Microsoft® Active Directory
Domain Controllers. In these systems, all the workstation clients of these domain
controllers are members of a secure domain (domain clients). There are two separate
categories of security enhanced (SE) installations:
a. New security enhanced I/A Series software installations - There are three different
installation scenarios for these new installations.
b. Installation on existing stations with security enhanced I/A Series software v8.5,
v8.6. or v8.7 - There are three different scenarios for existing stations with security
enhanced software. These are referred to as migrations.
Refer to Chapter 3 “Installation or Migration Scenarios for Security Enhanced
I/A Series Software v8.8” for a detailed explanation of these scenarios.
Determining Hardware Requirements

I/A Series software v8.8 can be installed on the following workstation platforms, and any later
versions of these platforms which are released:
 Servers:
 H90 (HP DL380)
 H91 (HP ML350)
 Workstation: H92 (HP Z400 or HP Z420)
 Servers:
 P90 (R710 and R710 Gen II)
 P91 (T710 Gen II)
 P91 (T610)
 Workstation: P92*K, P92*L and P92*M (T3500 and T3500 Gen II)
 Virtual machines:
 Virtual machines running on Model V90 server virtualization host, as described in
Virtualization User’s Guide (B0700VM)
Some workstations and servers which were shipped versions of I/A Series software previous to
v8.8 can be upgraded to run I/A Series software v8.8, provided their hardware is upgraded to be
comparable to that of the workstations and servers listed above. For example, a legacy T3500 with
3 GB of RAM could be upgraded to run I/A Series software v8.8 as long as an additional GB of
RAM is installed.
3
For a list of the minimum hardware requirements, refer to the Hardware and Software Specific
Documentation listed in “Reference Documents” on page xxv and the following PSSes:
 Model H92 and Model P92 Workstations Windows® 7 Professional Operating System
(PSS 21H-4D13 B4)
 Model H91 and Model P91 Workstation Servers for the Windows Server® 2008 R2
Operating System (PSS 21H-4U6 B4)
 Model H90 and Model P90 Workstation Servers for the Windows Server® 2008 R2
Operating System (PSS 21H-4U12 B4)
Pre-Installation System Backup

Before installing a system with I/A Series software v8.8, be sure to back up your I/A Series work-
stations and servers. Refer to Symantec System Recovery 2011 Workstation Edition and Server Edi-
tion Guide for I/A Series Workstations (B0700ES) for instructions on backing up and restoring your
workstations.
NOTE
The PDC and SDC domain controller pair cannot be successfully backed up, as
such a backup procedure is not supported by Microsoft.
Next, you physically install the software on each target workstation. This procedure includes
installing a new operating system image on the station and performing a Day 0 installation, which
is a fresh I/A Series software installation that wipes out any I/A Series software installed on it pre-
viously.
If you are installing Security Enhanced (SE) I/A Series software v8.8, you MUST install the Pri-
mary Domain Controller (PDC) first.After Day 0 installations, controllers require an image
update, so careful planning will be required. The On-Line Image Update (or On-Line Upgrade)
procedure is not available for Day 0 installations because the control database files (workfiles) are
lost during the Day 0 software installation. To restore the control database after a Day 0 installa-
tion, you must perform an Initialize and LoadAll. The on-line image update procedure is available
for future upgrades that do not involve a Day 0 installation on the host workstation. Refer to Con-
trol Processor 270 (CP270) On-Line Image Update (B0700BY).
System Configuration and Creating Commit

Installation Media
The first phase of installing a system is the system configuration process, which includes creating,
importing, and/or editing a system configuration, and creating Commit installation media (on a
network drive, USB drive, diskette, etc). I/A Series software v8.8 system configuration can be
accomplished using the following software:
 System Definition 3.0 or later - For instructions on installing System Definition soft-
ware, refer to System Definition Release Notes for Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008
(B0700SH). To create the Commit installation media, follow the procedures in System
Definition: A Step-By-Step Procedure (B0193WQ).
4
 I/A Series Configurator Component (IACC) v2.5 or later - I/A Series System Configu-
ration Component (IACC) User's Guide (B0700FE).
 Foxboro Control Software (FCS) v4.0 or later - For instructions on installing FCS,
refer to Foxboro Control Software Installation Guide (B0750RA). To create the Commit
installation media, follow the procedures in Hardware Configuration User’s Guide
(B0750BB).
After creating or editing the system configuration, you must create Commit installation media for
use during software installation.
NOTE
Be sure to label Commit installation media with the I/A Series versions on which it
can be used, for example, V8.8 or V8.2/V8.3/V8.4/V8.4.x/V8.5/V8.6/V8.7/V8.8.
NOTE
You should have only a single System Configuration (set of Commit media) for
your I/A Series software. From a single configuration database, you can produce
media for multiple versions of I/A Series software by providing a Package Distribu-
tion Disk (10091). Starting with I/A Series software v8.8, there is no package distri-
bution disk, so this request can be ignored in System Definition. For earlier
versions, this was used to produce specific information on the Commit disk that
was used by the I/A Series installation application to allow systems with I/A Series
software v8.7 or earlier to co-exist with systems with I/A Series software v8.8.
See the documentation listed below for information on how to import existing con-
figurations using System Definition v3.1, IACC v2.6, or FCS v5.0.
NOTE
If importing an older configuration from an earlier version of System Definition
(pre-v3.0), any stations intended for use in an I/A Series system v8.8 must be
migrated to either the new WSTA70 (for Windows 7) or WSVR70 (for Windows
Server 2008 R2 Standard) station type. After migrating these stations, new Commit
media must be created.
I/A Series Software V8.8 Documentation

Verify that you have all the necessary documentation required for your installation. Refer to “Ref-
erence Documents” on page xxv for a list of all documentation related to the I/A Series software
V8.8 release. Most documents are located on the I/A Series software v8.8 Electronic Documenta-
tion media, and you can find the latest revisions of the documents on the Global CSC webpage
https://support.ips.invensys.com.
Workstation Specific Operating System Media

You will also need to install operating system images for each workstation on which you will
install the standard or security enhanced I/A Series software v8.8.

2. Standard I/A Series Software
v8.8 Day 0 Installation
This chapter describes procedures to perform an initial installation of I/A Series software v8.8 with-
out security enhancements. An initial installation, or an installation which removes all instances of
existing I/A Series software, is referred to as a “Day 0” operation.
Workstation/Server Preparation
This section applies to both Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard stations on
which I/A Series software is being installed without security enhancements for the first time, or
overwriting existing I/A Series software. (This is referred to as a Day 0 installation, as opposed to
a Day 1 installation which is performed on a workstation/server on which the I/A Series software
have already been installed with the intention of retaining existing control databases and such.)
Perform the following steps to set up the hardware and restore the operating system onto your
workstation.
NOTE
If this is a new station shipped from the Invensys factory with the V8.8 Restore
image identified by the media kits in Table 1-1 and verified in your workstation’s
H-code (or P-code), proceed to “Notes on Installing I/A Series System Software” on

System Manager and System Management Display Handler

(SMDH) Installation Notes
I/A Series system management is carried out by the operator primarily via the:
 System Manager, discussed in System Manager (B0750AP), or
 System Management Display Handler (SMDH), discussed in System Management
Displays (B0193JC).
Be aware of the following notes regarding the installation of these software packages.
 On servers/workstations configured with the SMDH package (ASMDW7), the Sys-
tem Manager will be installed. Uninstalling the System Manager through the
Programs and Features dialog box (accessed via the Control Panel) results in the
server/workstation defaulting to SMDH as the system management application.
 SMDH can only be invoked through FoxView. From the I/A Series initial display,
access the SMDH displays from the System button on the FoxView main window.
System Manager displays can be invoked directly, without the need for a separate
application.
Be aware that FoxView is not typically loaded on a domain controller. Invensys rec-
ommends the IAMESH only configuration on domain controllers, in which SMDH
or System Manager is not installed.
 On servers/workstations where System Manager is installed by the Day 0 installation
of I/A Series software, only the System Manager client is installed.
NOTE
The System Manager Server should be installed only if the IASVCS package is
assigned to the station.
To install the System Manager Server, proceed as follows

3. Installation or Migration
Scenarios for Security Enhanced
I/A Series Software v8.8
If you are performing an installation or migration for a system with Security Enhanced
I/A Series software v8.8, this chapter assists you in determining the various tasks needed for
your specific system configuration.
For installations that require additional security over that provided by the standard I/A Series soft-
ware v8.8, a system with the security enhanced I/A Series software v8.8 is available. This security
implementation involves having servers that provide the role of Microsoft® Active Directory
Domain Controllers. A domain controller is a server on a Microsoft Windows network that is
responsible for allowing host access to Windows domain resources. It stores user account informa-
tion, authenticates users and enforces security policy for a Windows domain.
There has to be at least one domain controller present to act as the “primary” domain controller,
but the recommendation is to have a second server acting as a “secondary” domain controller to
provide redundancy. All the workstation clients of these domain controllers are members of a
secure domain (domain clients).
Determine the installation scenario for your I/A Series system as follows:
1. There are two separate types of installations for systems with security enhanced
I/A Series software v8.8. Determine which are applicable for the stations in your
I/A Series system:
 New Installation - Installation of this security enhanced software on worksta-
tions/servers on which I/A Series software has never been installed. For this instal-
lation, the domain controllers and all client domain workstations are newly
installed with I/A Series software v8.8.
Workstations with standard I/A Series software can also be installed on the same
Mesh network but will not be members of the secure domain.
 Migration - Installation of this software on existing workstations/servers on which
security enhanced I/A Series software v8.5, v8.6. or v8.7 has been installed previ-
ously. One or more of the existing domain client workstations must remain in
place and co-exist on the same domain as the new domain clients with I/A Series
software v8.8 while the migration is occurring, but then that domain client can be
migrated to I/A Series software v8.8, and the old Active Directory GPOs and OUs
that support the older I/A Series version could be removed from Active Directory
eventually.
2. Next, the domain controller target destination must be determined. This is based on
where the domain controllers will be located after the installation:
 On-Mesh - On The Mesh control network.
 Off-Mesh - On a separate network.
35
B0700SF – Rev E 3. Installation or Migration Scenarios for Security Enhanced I/A Series Software v8.8
3. Once you have determined the installation type (New Installation or Migration) and
the domain controller target destination (On-Mesh or Off-Mesh), use this informa-
tion to select your installation scenario from Table 3-1. Then proceed to the appropri-
ate section in this document to install the software, as directed.
Table 3-1 provides the details concerning each different installation scenario.

Scenario 1
In this scenario:
 New domain controllers (PDC and SDC) are located on The Mesh control network
(On-Mesh). All stations (new domain controllers and new domain client worksta-
tions) are loaded with I/A Series software v8.8.
 There are no stations with security enhanced I/A Series software v8.7 or earlier on the
domain.
 Stations with standard (non-SE) I/A Series software v8.8 or earlier are supported on

plied network (Off-Mesh). All stations (new domain controllers and new domain
client workstations) are loaded with I/A Series software v8.8.
domain.
Refer to Chapter 5 “Security Enhanced I/A Series Software v8.8 Installation for New Off-MESH
Domain Controllers” for the installation instructions for this scenario.
Scenario 3
This scenario is designed for systems in which you already have a PDC with Windows Server
2008 R2 Standard on which you want to install the I/A Series components for Active Directory.
In this scenario:
 I/A Series software v8.8 is installed to an existing PDC with Windows Server 2008 R2
Standard installed on an Off-Mesh network. The existing PDC is running Windows
Server 2008 R2 Standard with no I/A Series software. The existing PDC installed on a
separate network (Off-Mesh) is a customer-supplied station that has customer-specific
Active Directory components with no I/A Series software.
 This installation is not completely automated by the I/A Series software v8.8 installa-
tion program and requires some manual steps as indicated in Chapter 6 “Security
Enhanced I/A Series Software v8.8 Installation for Existing Off-MESH Primary
Domain Controllers”.
 All domain clients are installed as new workstations with I/A Series software v8.8.
domain.
Refer to Chapter 6 “Security Enhanced I/A Series Software v8.8 Installation for Existing Off-
MESH Primary Domain Controllers” for the installation instructions for this scenario.
Scenario 4
In this scenario:
 This is a migration of an existing PDC on The Mesh control network with Window
Server 2003 and I/A Series software v8.5, v8.6 or v8.7 to a new PDC on The Mesh
37
control network with Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard and I/A Series software
v8.8.
 The new PDC with Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard can either be a new server or
an existing SDC that is capable of running Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard.
 The installation is not completely automated by the I/A Series software v8.8 installa-
tion program and requires some manual steps as indicated in Chapter 7 “Migrating
I/A Series Software v8.5/8.6/8.7 to a New Primary Domain Controller on The
MESH Control Network”.
 The station name for the new PDC must be the name of a new station with I/A Series
software v8.8 that is configured to have only the IAMESH package. The name of this
station must be included on the Commit installation media.
 The existing PDC will switch roles and become an SDC on The Mesh control net-
work with Windows Server 2003. This station will keep its same name.
 SDCs are configured as follows:
 All existing SDCs with I/A Series software v8.7 or earlier must be taken off-line
(removing them from Active Directory, described in Appendix D “Secondary
Domain Controllers in an I/A Series System” - demoting is required for domain
controllers).
 These off-line stations must have Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard installed on
them (if their hardware supports this operating system).
 Each off-line station must have the appropriate software installed on them to
make them an SDC according to the instructions in this document.
This requires that either a new letterbug (station name) is provided which is desig-
nated as a station with I/A Series software v8.8 in the Commit installation media
or that the existing station name is converted in System Definition to be a station
with I/A Series software v8.8.
Refer to Chapter 7 “Migrating I/A Series Software v8.5/8.6/8.7 to a New Primary Domain Con-
troller on The MESH Control Network” for the installation instructions for this scenario.
Scenario 5
In this scenario:
Server 2003 and I/A Series software v8.5, v8.6 or v8.7 to a new PDC installed on a
separate network (Off-Mesh) with Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard and I/A Series
software v8.8.
 The new PDC with Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard can either be a new server or
an existing SDC that is capable of running Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard.
I/A Series Software v8.5/8.6/8.7 to a New Off-MESH Primary Domain Controller”.
 The station name for the new PDC does not have to be included on the Commit
installation media. This new name is configured in the Active Directory according to
the instructions.
38
3. Installation or Migration Scenarios for Security Enhanced I/A Series Software v8.8 B0700SF – Rev E
 The original PDC (with I/A Series software v8.5, v8.6 or v8.7) is no longer used after
the installation and can be removed.
 The old SDC must be removed. This involves demoting the domain controller and
removing from Active Directory. Any other SDC station on the I/A Series system v8.7
or earlier on The Mesh control network must also be removed and reloaded as stations
with I/A Series software v8.8 (Off-Mesh) if desired:
 All existing SDCs with I/A Series software v8.7 or earlier must be taken off-line
(removing them from Active Directory, described in Appendix D “Secondary
Domain Controllers in an I/A Series System” - demoting is required for domain
controllers).
 These off-line stations must have Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard installed on
them (if their hardware supports this operating system).
 Each off-line station must be installed as an Off-Mesh SDC according to the
instructions in this document.
Refer to Chapter 8 “Migrating I/A Series Software v8.5/8.6/8.7 to a New Off-MESH Primary
Domain Controller” for the installation instructions for this scenario.
Scenario 6
In this scenario:
Server 2003 and I/A Series software v8.5, v8.6 or v8.7 to an existing PDC on a sepa-
rate network (Off-Mesh) with Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard. The existing PDC
is a customer station that has customer-specific Active Directory components with no
I/A Series software.
I/A Series Software v8.5/8.6/8.7 to a Pre-Existing Off-MESH Primary Domain
Controller”.
 The station name for the new PDC does not have to be included on the Commit
installation media. This new name is configured in the Active Directory according to
the instructions.
 The original PDC and all original SDC stations (with I/A Series software v8.5, v8.6
or v8.7) will no longer function as domain controllers on the I/A Series network.
 It is possible to do one of the following with the original PDC and any original SDC
stations:
 Reload these stations with I/A Series software v8.5/8.6/8.7 and connect them to
the new migrated domain. This involves reloading the Windows Server 2003 R2
operating system on these station and re-installing I/A Series software as described
in I/A Series 8.5 Software Installation Guide (B0700SB).
 Remove Active Directory from these stations and then connect them directly to
the new domain without reloading I/A Series software (staying at v8.5/8.6/8.7).
This involves performing the procedures for demoting a domain controller, start-
ing with each SDC station and ending with the PDC station (all on the old
39
domain). Then, the stations must be connected physically to the new Off-Mesh
domain and then joined to the new Active Directory domain.
 Reload these stations with I/A Series software v8.8 (if the hardware supports the
Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard operating system). This involves backing up
anything relevant on the station, reloading the operating system, and installing
I/A Series software v8.8. In this case, these stations either need to be assigned a
new workstation name (change the Commit installation media to add a new sta-
tion with I/A Series software v8.8) or migrate the existing letterbug to become an
station with I/A Series v8.8 in System Definition, as described in System Defini-
tion: A Step-By-Step Procedure (B0193WQ).
NOTE
The procedure to add an SDC station to this domain after the migration is com-
pleted is out of the scope of this document. The domain is an existing setup and
already has its domain controllers configured.
Refer to Chapter 9 “Migrating I/A Series Software v8.5/8.6/8.7 to a Pre-Existing Off-MESH Pri-
mary Domain Controller” for the installation instructions for this scenario.

Software v8.8 Installation for
Domain Controllers on
The MESH Control Network
This chapter describes procedures to install security enhanced I/A Series software v8.8 on
primary and secondary domain controller servers on The Mesh control network.
Proceed to the appropriate section:
 For Primary Domain Controllers on The Mesh control network, proceed to the next
section.
 For Secondary Domain Controllers on The Mesh control network, proceed to
“Installing Security Enhanced I/A Series Software v8.8 on Secondary Domain Con-
trollers on The MESH Control Network” on page 76.
NOTE
After the IAInstaller account has been created during the PDC software installation,
use this account for all subsequent installation tasks, such as installing additional
software. However, due to the permissions assigned to IAInstaller, do not use it for
any other role, such as operation of the station.
Installing I/A Series SE Software v8.8 on Primary

Domain Controllers on The MESH Control Network
This section describes how to install security enhanced I/A Series software v8.8 on primary
domain controller servers on The Mesh control network.
Server Preparation
The primary domain controller (PDC) must be a server-class station installed with the Windows
Server 2008 R2 Standard operating system, and must be the first station in the I/A Series system
installed with the security enhanced I/A Series software. For this procedure, it is assumed that the
PDC is installed on The Mesh control network (which is a dedicated I/A Series maintained net-
work).
Perform the following steps to set up the hardware and restore the operating system onto your pri-
mary domain controller server:

4. Security Enhanced I/A Series Software v8.8 Installation for Domain Controllers on The MESH Control Network

Before you install I/A Series software, make sure that the server is physically connected to the The
Mesh network and, if required, that any network interface card drivers are updated. Refer to the
notes below.
Also, make sure the server is disconnected from any secondary (non-I/A Series) networks, but do
not disable the adapters for these network cards.
! WARNING
The server must be connected to The Mesh network before installing I/A Series
software.
! CAUTION
Disconnect non-I/A Series network connections but do not disable the adapters for
these network cards.
! CAUTION
The network interface drivers used for connection to The Mesh may require updat-
ing before installing I/A Series Version 8.8 software. Failure to do this may lead to
communication errors. See Appendix A “Startup Options”.
! CAUTION
NOTE
It is not possible to log onto either type of domain controller (primary or second-
ary) with any of the standard I/A Series user accounts (such as users that are mem-
bers of the IA Plant Operators, IA Plant Admins, or IA Plant Engineers groups). It
is possible to log onto a domain controller with the “IAManager”, “IAInstaller”, and
“IADomainAdmin” accounts. However, all of the I/A Series software functionality
is not available through these user accounts. The recommended configuration for
the domain controllers is IAMESH only.
NOTE
On servers with the Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard operating system, it is rec-
ommended that no roles be added to the system which are not necessary for the
operation of the server. Adding unnecessary roles (for example, adding the Remote
Desktop Services role when the server is not to be used as a remote session host) can
create security weaknesses in the overall system.
43

The Windows server name must match the server letterbug name as it was configured in SysDef
and saved onto your Commit installation media before you install the I/A Series software. For
instructions on modifying the computer name of your server, refer to Appendix B “Changing the
Station Name”.

Tombstone Lifetime Attribute in Active Directory

By default the Active Directory tombstone lifetime is sixty days. Having a longer tombstone life-
time decreases the chance that a deleted object remains in the local directory of a disconnected
Domain Controller beyond the time when the object is permanently deleted from online DCs.
It is highly recommended that you review information regarding the tombstone lifetime attribute
in “Backing Up Active Directory on Domain Controllers” on page 507. If you want to alter the
default value, use the procedure “Changing the Tombstone Lifetime Attribute in Active Direc-
tory” on page 508.
Backing Up Active Directory

You should back up Active Directory at regular intervals on I/A Series domain controller stations.
Backing up Active Directory ensures a smooth restoration of I/A Series system operations after an
unexpected hardware or software failure. See “Backing Up Active Directory on Domain Control-
lers” on page 507 for additional information.

This section describes how to install security enhanced I/A Series software v8.8 on secondary
domain controller servers on The Mesh control network.
Server Preparation
The secondary domain controller (SDC) must be a server-class station installed with the Win-
dows Server 2008 R2 Standard operating system. For this procedure, it is assumed that the SDC
is installed on The Mesh control network (which is a dedicated I/A Series maintained network).

 Click OK.
 Click OK.
NOTE
While installing an SDC, it is important to ensure that the UTC system time
matches the UTC system time on the domain (as viewed on the PDC). The date
and time must match, though the time which Windows displays may differ if the
time zones are not the same on the two stations.
Be careful when changing the time zone prior to adjusting the system time as this
can cause the AM/PM setting to change.
Also, be aware that the checkbox included for some time zones which defines
whether or not the time will be automatically adjusted for Daylight Saving Time
can cause the system time to differ by an hour.

Before you install I/A Series software, make sure that the server is physically connected to the net-
work and that the PDC is on-line and attached to The Mesh.

on Off-MESH Primary Domain Controllers
This section describes how to install security enhanced I/A Series software v8.8 on new primary
domain controller servers on a separate network from The Mesh control network.
Server Preparation
The primary domain controller (PDC) must be a server-class station installed with the Windows
Server 2008 R2 Standard operating system, and must be the first station in the I/A Series system
installed with the security enhanced I/A Series software. For this procedure, it is assumed that the
PDC is installed on a separate network (which is called an “Off-Mesh” network), not connected
to The Mesh control network.
Perform the following steps to set up the hardware and restore the operating system onto your pri-
mary domain controller server:

on Off-MESH Secondary Domain Controllers
This section describes how to install security enhanced I/A Series software v8.8 on secondary
domain controller servers on a separate network from The Mesh control network.
Server Preparation
The secondary domain controller (SDC) must be a server-class station installed with the Win-
dows Server 2008 R2 Standard operating system. For this procedure, it is assumed that the SDC
is installed on a separate network (which is called an “Off-Mesh” network), not connected to The
Mesh control network.
Perform the following steps to set up the hardware and restore the operating system onto your sec-
ondary domain controller server:
NOTE
1. Install hardware, install the Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard operating system, and
Options”.
! WARNING
Only use the media kits listed in Table 1-1 on page 6 to restore the operating system
of an V8.8 station.
c. Set the time and date.to match the date and time on the PDC. Perform the fol-
lowing:
139
 Click OK.
 Click OK.
NOTE
While installing an SDC, it is important to ensure that the UTC system time
matches the UTC system time on the domain (as viewed on the PDC). The date
and time must match, though the time which Windows displays may differ if the
time zones are not the same on the two stations.

Before you install I/A Series software, make sure that the server is physically connected to the net-
work and that the PDC is on-line and attached to the same Off-Mesh network.
! WARNING
The server must be connected to the Off-Mesh network before installing I/A Series
software.
! CAUTION

Software v8.8 Installation
for Existing Off-MESH Primary
Domain Controllers
This chapter describes procedures to install security enhanced I/A Series software v8.8 on an
existing primary domain controller server with Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard on a
separate network (not on The Mesh control network).
Overview
If you already have a PDC with Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard on which you want to install
the I/A Series components for Active Directory, follow the instructions in this chapter to perform
this installation.
Be aware that this scenario does not include installation of an SDC. If you have an SDC, the
Active Directory should be replicated to that SDC after the I/A Series installation to the PDC.
If you do not have an SDC and want to add one now, you can purchase an Invensys-supplied
SDC and install I/A Series software v8.8 on it as described in “Installing Security Enhanced
I/A Series Software v8.8 on Off-MESH Secondary Domain Controllers” on page 139. Alter-
nately, you can use a non-Invensys server as your SDC and install only the appropriate Microsoft
Active Directory software.

Before you install I/A Series software, make sure that the server is physically connected to the Off-
notes below.
Next, make sure the server is disconnected from any secondary (non-I/A Series) networks, but do

7. Migrating I/A Series Software
v8.5/8.6/8.7 to a New Primary
Domain Controller on The MESH
Control Network
This chapter describes how to migrate an existing On-Mesh Primary Domain Controller
(PDC) with I/A Series software v8.5/8.6/8.7 to a new PDC with Windows Server 2008 R2
Standard, located on The Mesh control network.
The source station for this migration can either be:
 A new I/A Series server, shipped with an I/A Series software v8.8 (or later) image
installed.
 An existing SDC with I/A Series software v8.5/8.6/8.7 installed, which will be con-
verted to a PDC with an I/A Series software v8.8 (or later) image installed.
The target station (the station onto which the new software will be installed) for this migration is
the new PDC with Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard.
After the migration, both the domain clients which existed pre-I/A Series software v8.8 and the
new I/A Series domain clients (post-I/A Series software v8.8) will be connected to the same
domain. Existing group policies will be maintained while new I/A Series software v8.8 group pol-
icies will be enacted. The steps in this section only need to be followed once for the domain
migration in order to establish the new PDC station.
Perform the procedures provided below.

v8.5/8.6/8.7 to a New Off-MESH
Primary Domain Controller
This chapter describes how to migrate an existing On-Mesh Primary Domain Controller
(PDC) with I/A Series software v8.5/8.6/8.7 to a new PDC with Windows Server 2008 R2
Standard which is on a separate network, not located on The Mesh control network (Off-
Mesh).
The source station for this migration can either be:
 A new I/A Series server, shipped with an I/A Series software v8.8 (or later) image
installed.
 An existing SDC with I/A Series software v8.5/8.6/8.7 installed, which will be con-
verted to a PDC with an I/A Series software v8.8 (or later) image installed.
The target station (the station onto which the new software will be installed) for this migration
will become new PDC with Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard.
After the migration, both the domain clients which existed pre-I/A Series software v8.8 and the
new I/A Series domain clients (with I/A Series software v8.8) will be connected to the same
domain. Existing group policies will be maintained while new I/A Series software v8.8 group pol-
icies will be enacted. The steps in this section only need to be followed once for the domain
migration in order to establish the new PDC station.
Perform the procedures provided below.

(Existing PDC with I/A Series Software v8.5/8.6/8.7)
for Migration
NOTE
Once complete, all existing SDC stations with I/A Series software v8.5/8.6/8.7
must be reloaded as Off-Mesh SDC stations with I/A Series software v8.8 running
on the Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard operating system. Once this
has been done, the domain and forest functional levels can be raised to “Server
2008.”
For the source On-Mesh Primary Domain Controller (PDC) with I/A Series software
v8.5/8.6/8.7 for this migration, proceed as follows:
1. Log into the existing On-Mesh PDC using a domain administrator account (such as
IADomainAdmin).

v8.5/8.6/8.7 to a Pre-Existing Off-
MESH Primary Domain Controller
This chapter describes how to migrate an existing (source) On-Mesh Primary Domain
Controller with I/A Series software v8.5/8.6/8.7 and Windows Server 2003 to a pre-existing
(target) Off-Mesh Primary Domain Controller (PDC) with I/A Series software v8.8 or later
and Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard.
This procedure involves:
 Copying the inter-forest migration scripts to a portable drive, and downloading the
required third-party software
 Transferring the Active Directory Settings from the source On-Mesh PDC to the tar-
get Off-Mesh PDC
 Installing required third-party software to the target Off-Mesh PDC
 Migrating passwords and group policy objects (GPOs) from the source On-Mesh
PDC (with the Password Export Server) to the target Off-Mesh PDC
 Migrating the domain clients with I/A Series software v8.5/8.6/8.7) to the new Off-
Mesh domain.
You must transfer all user accounts, groups and computers manually to the migration organiza-
tional unit (OU) on the source On-Mesh PDC.
The inter-forest migration scripts on the I/A Series v8.8 Day 0 DVD-ROM will:
 Migrate all the user accounts, groups, group memberships, passwords and security
identifiers (SIDs) from the On-Mesh PDC’s migration OU to the pre-existing Off-
Mesh PDC’s migration OU.
 Install the new I/A Series Security Phase 2 Active Directory components on the target
Off-Mesh PDC automatically using other scripts.
After migrating the user accounts, groups and computers, each client workstation must be
removed from the source On-Mesh PDC and added to the target Off-Mesh PDC (the station
onto which the new software will be installed).
In these procedures, the:
 Existing On-Mesh Primary Domain Controller with I/A Series software v8.5/8.6/8.7
and Windows Server 2003 is referred to as the source PDC.
 Existing Off-Mesh Primary Domain Controller (PDC) with Windows Server 2008
R2 Standard and the I/A Series software v8.8 Active Directory group policies or Phase
2 Active Directory security components installed on it is referred to as the target
PDC.

Group Policy Settings Migration From Domains with

I/A Series Software v8.7 or Earlier
When migrating from an On-Mesh domain with I/A Series software v8.7 or earlier to an existing
Off-Mesh domain with I/A Series software v8.8 or later, there are group policy settings in the
domain with I/A Series software v8.7 or earlier that will not automatically be in effect after per-
forming the migration. This is to prevent the introduction of changes to your existing domain at
such a base level that could adversely affect other nodes that are already working in that existing
domain.
This is particularly true of settings that were in the Default Domain Controllers Policy group pol-
icy objects (GPOs) for domains with I/A Series software v8.7 or earlier. These group policy set-
tings will not be applied to your existing domain controller GPO.
For convenience, the installation application for I/A Series software v8.8 copies the Default
Domain Controllers Policy for a domain with I/A Series software v8.7 or earlier to the new
domain as the “Pre-8.8 Default Domain Controllers Policy” but it will not be linked to any OU.
It is there for reference to capture the domain controller policies that were in effect in the domain
with I/A Series software v8.7 or earlier.
It is your responsibility and at your discretion whether or not to manually add any settings that
were in the Default Domain Controllers Policy for a domain with I/A Series software v8.7 or ear-
lier to your own existing domain controllers group policy.
One such policy is the Password Complexity setting. Invensys supplies an enhanced Password
Complexity policy that you can turn on optionally if you want to require that all passwords con-
tain four types of characters (upper, lower, numbers, and symbols). This policy setting is described
in Security Enhancements User's Guide for I/A Series Workstations with Windows 7 or Windows
Server 2008 Operating Systems (B0700ET). If the Invensys-supplied enhanced Password Complex-
ity policy had been enabled in the domain controller policy for a domain with I/A Series software
v8.7 or earlier, it will need to be added to the domain controllers policy on the existing Off-Mesh
domain manually.
Preparation for Installation

To prepare for the installation of the target Off-Mesh PDC (with I/A Series v8.8 or later), proceed
as follows:
2. Copy the inter-forest migration scripts from the DVD labeled “I/A Series v8.8 Day 0
DVD-ROM” (K0174KE-A) onto a portable drive that can be used for the setup of
the Off-Mesh PDC. The scripts are located in the \InterForestMigration folder as

Figure 9-14. Migration OU - Populated
Any additional users and groups may also be dragged into the Migration OU if they
are to be migrated. However, the migration process does not support migrating
custom OUs. All objects must be located directly under the Migration OU.
NOTE
Any non-standard accounts or groups (such as those which were not created by
default during the installation of I/A Series software v8.5) will be migrated if they
are placed directly inside the Migration OU. However, any links which had been
made to group policy objects (GPOs) before the migration will be lost. After the
migration is complete, it will be necessary to recreate the OUs which had contained
these Active Directory objects and manually move the objects into their respective
OUs. It will also be necessary to re-establish any links to the GPOs in order for
these user groups and accounts to work as they had on the pre-migrated system.

Domain Clients to Existing Off-MESH Networks
This chapter describes procedures to install security enhanced I/A Series software v8.8 on your
domain clients and connect them to the appropriate On-Mesh or Off-Mesh domain controller.
It also describes how to connect an existing domain client with I/A Series software v8.5-v8.7 to
an existing Off-Mesh domain controller.
Workstation/Server Preparation
This section applies to the Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard stations that are
being installed as domain clients. The domain client may be connected to a domain client either
on The Mesh control network (which is a dedicated I/A Series maintained network) or on
another network (which is called an “Off-Mesh” network).
Dialog boxes on these two types of platforms may differ slightly, but will be functionally identical,
with minor exceptions as documented below.
Perform the following steps to set up the hardware and restore the operating system onto your
workstation:

Notes for Installing I/A Series System Software

Before you install I/A Series software, make sure that the station is physically connected to The
Mesh control network and that the PDC is on-line and attached to The Mesh or a secondary
(non-I/A Series) network for an Off-Mesh PDC.
If the PDC is on The Mesh control network, make sure the station is disconnected from any sec-
ondary (non-I/A Series) networks, but do not disable the adapters for these network cards.

Migrating Domain Client from Domain in I/A Series System v8.7

Or Earlier to a Domain in I/A Series System v8.8
If you have migrated a domain client from a domain in an I/A Series system with I/A Series soft-
ware v8.7 or earlier to a domain with I/A Series software v8.8, it may be necessary to move the
migrated domain client’s object in Active Directory before beginning the client’s installation pro-
cedure.
This may be necessary as there is a different Organizational Unit (OU) in Active Directory for the
domain clients from a domain with I/A Series software v8.7 or earlier and the domain clients in a
domain with I/A Series software v8.8. Proceed as follows:

Installation Procedure for Pre-Existing Domain Clients

(I/A Series Software v8.5-v8.7) to Existing Off-MESH Domain
Controllers
You can install a pre-existing domain client with I/A Series software v8.5-v8.7 and directly con-
nect it to an existing Off-Mesh domain as long as it has been migrated using the procedures
detailed in Chapter 7 “Migrating I/A Series Software v8.5/8.6/8.7 to a New Primary Domain
Controller on The MESH Control Network”, Chapter 8 “Migrating I/A Series Software
v8.5/8.6/8.7 to a New Off-MESH Primary Domain Controller” or Chapter 9 “Migrating
I/A Series Software v8.5/8.6/8.7 to a Pre-Existing Off-MESH Primary Domain Controller”.
Previously, Off-Mesh domains in I/A Series systems v8.5-8.7 were not supported. However, you
can use the installer on your existing CD labeled “I/A Series 8.5 XP Day 0 CD-ROM”
(K0174GD) to attach the domain client to a migrated Off-Mesh domain in an I/A Series system
v8.8.
For complete installation instructions, refer to the chapter “V8.5 I/A Series SE Software Installa-
tion for a Domain Client” in I/A Series 8.5 Software Installation Guide (B0700SB), available
through the Global Customer Support at https://support.ips.invensys.com.
Proceed as follows:
1. Before running the installer on your pre-existing domain client, set up a connection to
the Off-Mesh network and set the IP address and DNS settings for the Off-Mesh
NIC as described below.
Open the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) Properties dialog box for the domain client’s
Off-Mesh NIC card as follows:
Figure 10-48.
d. In the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) Properties dialog box, set the TCP/IP address
and DNS server address to match the network settings of the target PDC (that is,
the PDF with I/A Series software v8.8 for the Off-Mesh network). The preferred
DNS server address should be the IP address of the target PDC.
If your system has an SDC, add the IP address of the SDC to the Alternate DNS
server field.

2. If the pre-existing domain client was not a part of the original I/A Series configuration
prior to the migration of the target PDC, it may be necessary to add the domain cli-
ent to Active Directory. On the target PDC, in Active Directory Users and Comput-
ers, ensure that there is a computer account for the pre-existing domain client in the
“Pre-8.8 IA Computers” OU as shown in Figure 10-49.

Appendix D. Secondary Domain
Controllers in an I/A Series System
This chapter details the installation and configuration procedures for the security enhancements
provided for I/A Series v8.8 or later systems, which may also include FCS 4.0 or later software.
In the security-enhanced I/A Series system, the secondary domain controller (SDC) functions as a
backup to the primary domain controller (PDC) server for both Active Directory and DNS ser-
vices. This means that if the PDC becomes unavailable for any reason, the SDC provides such
functions as:
 Servicing log on requests to the I/A Series network
 Allowing for the creation, deletion, and modification of user accounts
 Servicing DNS name resolution requests
Some functionality will be unavailable or may be limited during the time that a PDC is offline
and the SDC has not been promoted to PDC. This includes, but is not limited to:
 Domain schema cannot be extended.
 New SDC workstations cannot be added to the domain.
 Ability to add users and computers to the domain may be limited.
 Group polices cannot be edited.
It is recommended that the PDC remain the PDC and all SDC stations remain as SDC stations
once the security-enhanced I/A Series system has been installed. If a PDC is unavailable for a
short period of time (e.g. less than a week), it is highly recommended that an SDC is not pro-
moted to take over the role of PDC. This is because the offline PDC will not be automatically
demoted to be an SDC. During this time when the PDC is offline, do not add any new stations.
When the PDC comes back online, there would be two primary domain controllers, one of which
must then be demoted.
! CAUTION
Bringing up two PDC stations on the I/A Series system must be avoided.
Active Directory Operations Master Roles

If there is a need to promote an SDC to become the PDC, it is always better to do this while the
PDC is still available. This is the preferred method for passing primary domain controller func-
tionality to a different server on the I/A Series system, so that the primary domain controller will
automatically be demoted to a secondary domain controller.
There are five FSMO (Flexible Single Master Operation) roles which are transferable between
domain controllers within an Active Directory domain or forest:
 RID (Relative ID) Master
 PDC Emulator
435
B0700SF – Rev E Appendix D. Secondary Domain Controllers in an I/A Series System
 Infrastructure Master
 Domain Naming Master
 Schema Master
Note that these roles are also referred to as “operations master” roles. The steps in the next section
provide a method for transferring all five roles from the PDC to one of the SDC servers.
Transferring the Operations Master Roles

In this procedure, the example name of the PDC is “NESRV5” while the example name of the
SDC is “NESRV4”. The transfer procedure is illustrated in Figure D-1.

Seizing Active Directory Operations Master Roles

In the event that the PDC is no longer available, one of the SDCs may still be promoted to be a
primary domain controller. To do this, follow the procedure below to seize the domain controller
roles for an existing SDC. This procedure provides a method for seizing all five roles and assigning
them to one of the SDC servers, and is illustrated in Figure D-30.

Unavailable
PDC is unavailable due to
a hardware or software failure. Primary Domain Secondary Domain
Unavailable
FSMO roles are seized by the
existing SDC. This server Primary Domain Primary Domain
becomes the Primary Domain Controller Controller

Figure D-30. Seizing FSMO Roles
NOTE
This is a last-resort measure that should only be taken if the PDC holding the roles
will not be able to be restored. Once you perform this procedure, you will not be
able to bring the PDC back online without first removing its installation of Active
Directory. (This is discussed in a later section.)
To seize the Active Directory roles because the PDC will no longer be available:
1. On the SDC server which will become the PDC, open the Run window, type ntdsu-
til and press <Enter>. This starts the Active Directory Services Maintenance Utility.
454

2. Type roles and press <Enter>.

3. At the fsmo maintenance: prompt, type connections and press <Enter>.
4. At the server connections: prompt, type connect to server <servername> and
press <Enter>. In this case, <servername> is the name of the SDC being promoted
to PDC.
5. At the server connections: prompt, type q and press <Enter>.
6. At the fsmo maintenance: prompt, type seize naming master and press <Enter>.
7. At the fsmo maintenance: prompt, type seize infrastructure master and press
<Enter>.
8. At the fsmo maintenance: prompt, type seize PDC and press <Enter>.
9. At the fsmo maintenance: prompt, type seize RID master and press <Enter>.
10. At the fsmo maintenance: prompt, type seize schema master and press <Enter>.
During each role seizure call, the Active Directory Services Maintenance Utility will
attempt to transfer the role by contacting the PDC. A time-out will occur while this
happens, followed by an error message. A dialog will appear, asking to confirm the sei-
zure of the role. Click Yes to seize the role.

Restoring a PDC Server Station

If the PDC station which had its roles seized becomes available later (e.g., through a hardware fix
or a ghost image restore), it cannot be returned to the I/A Series network until it has had its Active
Directory removed. This is due to the fact that the software on that station is still configured to be
the primary domain controller.
The instructions to remove Active Directory from this workstation before placing it back on the
I/A Series network are provided below. This procedure is illustrated in Figure D-33.

Alternatively, you can remove and restore the Active Directory by reinstalling the operating system
and I/A Series software on this workstation. (This is a longer and more complicated procedure
than the one described in Figure D-33 but it is a viable alternative.) To accomplish this, com-
pletely reload this workstation from the base Invensys-provided Day 0 workstation image and fol-
low the instructions for installing a secondary domain controller provided in Chapter 4 “Security
Enhanced I/A Series Software v8.8 Installation for Domain Controllers on The MESH Control
Network” or Chapter 5 “Security Enhanced I/A Series Software v8.8 Installation for New Off-
MESH Domain Controllers”. Once this workstation is completely installed as an SDC, follow the
procedure listed below for promoting this workstation to be the PDC while the existing primary
domain controller is still available to be demoted.

When you have completed the restoration, verify that the SDC is working properly, as discussed
in the next subsection.
Verifying Domain Controller Backup Functionality

Once an I/A Series system has been installed with both a primary and secondary domain control-
ler, verify that the backup functionality is working properly.
To test that the SDC is servicing logon requests and allowing for the creation of new user
accounts while the PDC is offline, proceed as follows:
1. Create a new user account on the SDC while the PDC is offline.
2. Add this user account to one of the standard I/A Series groups (for example, IA Plant
Operators).
484
3. Use this new user account to log onto one of the client workstations.
To test that the SDC is servicing DNS name resolution requests while the backup is offline, pro-
ceed as follows:
1. Open a command prompt on one of the client workstations.
2. With the PDC still connected to the network, type nslookup and press <Enter>.
3. With the PDC still connected to the network, in the command prompt, type
“nslookup <CLIENT2>”, where <CLIENT2> is another client station on the domain.
The IP address of the second client will be retrieved from the primary DNS server
(NESRV5.iaseries.local in this case) to verify that the PDC is no longer available
4. Type “nslookup <CLIENT2> <SDCStationName>” to verify tat the SDC responds to
the DNS request.
Figure D-68. nslookup for Client Stations (NESRV5.iaseries.local)
5. Disconnect the PDC from the network.

6. Open a command prompt on one of the client workstations.
7. With the PDC disconnected from the network, type nslookup and press <Enter>.
8. Type <CLIENT2>, where <CLIENT2> is another client on the domain. The IP address
of the second client will be retrieved from the secondary DNS server
(NESRV4.iaseries.local in this case).
485
Figure D-69. nslookup for Client Stations (NESRV4.iaseries.local)
9. In the event that this does not work with the PDC disconnected, it is possible that the
NIC card settings were not made for the SDC when the I/A Series software was
installed. On every workstation, the SDC IP addresses should be configured as sec-
ondary DNS locators. The NIC settings should appear as shown in Figure D-70 for a
client workstation on a system with a primary and one secondary DNS server. These
settings are only necessary for the FoxInt NDIS Intermediate Miniport Drive. In this
case, 151.128.152.205 is for the PDC and 151.128.152.209 is for the SDC.

In the event that a domain controller has failed and will not be restored from a saved image,
remove this domain controller from the Active Directory domain with the following procedure.
This procedure will not successfully remove a domain controller if it holds one or more of the
FSMO roles. These roles must be transferred to another domain controller before proceeding, as
discussed in “Transferring the Operations Master Roles” on page 436.
If the domain controller is not available, the master roles cannot be transferred. In this case, refer
to “Seizing Active Directory Operations Master Roles” on page 454.

Restoring Connections on a Single Domain Controller

System
If the PDC becomes unavailable and there are no SDCs on the I/A Series system, the original
PDC may be reloaded from a ghost image or reloaded from the base Invensys-provided Day 0
workstation images. However, the functionality of the I/A Series system will be very limited dur-
ing the time which the PDC is unavailable. On each client workstation, only domain accounts
(including operators and administrators) which have already been used to log on to that worksta-
tion may be used. This is because the account credentials for these accounts have been cached
locally.
After the PDC station has been completely restored, the following procedure must be performed
on each of the client workstations in order to restore the connection to the domain.
NOTE
These steps are not necessary if there was an SDC present on the I/A Series
network.

Adjusting NIC Settings after Adding an SDC

If this SDC server name was not selected from the SDC drop-down list during the installation of
the PDC or any of the clients, including additional SDC servers, then the NIC card settings must
be adjusted on those stations at this time.
On each of these stations, the SDC IP address should be configured as a secondary DNS locator:
1. Open the Network and Sharing Center from the Control Panel.
2. Click Change adapter settings in the left-hand pane.
3. Right-click on the entry for REDL Virtual Miniport Driver and select Proper-
ties.
4. Select Internet Protocol 4 (TCP/IPv4) and click Properties.

This is what the NIC settings should look like for a client workstation on a system
with a primary and one secondary DNS server. These settings are only necessary for
the FoxInt NDIS Intermediate Miniport Driver. In this case, the IP address ending in
84 is for the PDC and the IP address ending in 112 is for the SDC. Add the SDC IP
Address on each station if it is not already present.
Figure D-103. Advanced TCP/IP Settings Dialog Box
Backing Up Active Directory on Domain Controllers

Active Directory should be backed up at regular intervals on I/A Series domain controller stations
in order to ensure a smooth restoration of I/A Series system operations following unexpected sys-
tem failures (software or hardware). At a minimum, these backups should be performed at least
every 60 days, which is the default value of the tombstone lifetime for Active Directory backups.
Backups may be taken less often if the tombstone lifetime value is increased (see the following sec-
tion). This value is stored in Active Directory under the tombstoneLifetime attribute and
defines the length of time for which a backup is valid and usable for restoring Active Directory
objects. With a valid backup available, any objects created in Active Directory after the initial I/A
Series software installation can be easily restored. This includes policies that have been defined in
addition to the standard I/A Series system policies. Refer to http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/mag-
507
azine/2008.05.adbackup.aspx?pr=blog for information on performing Active Directory backups.
NOTE
It is highly recommended that the following procedures are performed for changing
the tombstone lifetime value. This will help ensure that backups remain current and
usable. A value of a least 180 days is recommended. This should be done before
BESR or Active Directory backups are taken. Also, make sure that the value
changed is replicated to all domain controllers before creating backups.
NOTE
Refer to Appendix E “Guidelines for Using BESR for Backing Up and Restoring
Domain Controllers” for additional information on backups.
Changing the Tombstone Lifetime Attribute in Active

Directory
By default, the Active Directory tombstone lifetime is sixty days. This value can be changed if
necessary. Having a longer tombstone lifetime decreases the chance that a deleted object remains
in the local directory of a disconnected Domain Controller beyond the time when the object is
permanently deleted from online Domain Controllers.
The easiest way to modify this attribute value is by using the ADSI Edit tool.
! WARNING
Certain Windows Support Tools, if used improperly, might cause your computer to
stop functioning. It is recommended that only experienced users install and use
Windows Support Tools.
In order to perform the following steps, you can use the IADomainAdmin account or you will
need to be a member of the “Enterprise Admins” group.
To view or change attribute values by using ADSI Edit:
1. Click Start, click Run, type ADSIEdit.msc and then click OK.

4. Expand the Configuration node.

5. Expand:
CN=Configuration,DC=<ForestRootDN>
where “<ForestRootDN>” is the Distinguished Name of your Active Directory Forest
Root domain. For example, if your domain's name is iaseries.local, then the DN for it
would be:
DC=iaseries,DC=local
6. Navigate to:
CN=Services > CN=Windows NT > CN=Directory Service
7. Right-click on Directory Service and choose Properties.

9. Configure the tombstone lifetime period (in days), then click OK.
Figure D-109. Attribute Value -- Tombstone Lifetime Period
10. Click OK and then close the ADSI Edit tool.

When you view the properties, if no value is set (shows up as “<Not Set>”) it means that the
default value is in effect. Any value that you type in the Attribute Editor Value field replaces the
default value when you click OK.
512
In order to verify the value has been set, the following command can be executed in a command
prompt window:
dsquery * "cn=Directory Service,cn=Windows NT,cn=Services,
cn=Configuration,dc=iaseries,dc=local" -scope base -attr tombstonelifetime
If your domain name is not “iaseries.local,” then replace the distinguished name of the domain in
the above command from “dc=iaseries,dc=local” to the actual distinguished name of your domain.

Appendix E. Guidelines for Using
BESR for Backing Up and Restoring
Domain Controllers
This appendix provides guidelines for using Symantec Backup Exec System Recovery (BESR) to
backup and restore images on domain controllers.
The Symantec Backup Exec System Recovery (BESR) product is used to backup and restore
I/A Series workstations and servers. However, when used with domain controllers (PDC or SDC),
restoring an old image that has Active Directory installed on it is a last resort approach when you
have more than one domain controller. If you have a working domain controller and you need to
restore another domain controller, it is best to reinstall the second domain controller and allow
replication to occur with the good domain controller instead of restoring the second domain con-
troller from a backup image.
The Symantec Backup Exec System Recovery (BESR) product and all procedures for using this
product are described in Symantec System Recovery 2011 Workstation Edition and Server Edition
Guide for I/A Series Workstations (B0700ES).
For normal backups of Active Directory, the best practice is to perform a System State backup and
a group policy backup:
 Refer to http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/2008.05.adbackup.aspx?pr=blog for
information on performing Active Directory backups.
 Use the Group Policy Management Console (GPMC) to perform group policy back-
ups. Click the Start button and select Control Panel -> Administrative Tools -
> Group Policy Management.
In the case of servers that have Active Directory installed on them, i.e., domain controllers, the
following guidelines should be followed if you are forced to restore them from BESR backups.
NOTE
These procedures refer to tools that are part of the Windows Support Tools. If you
have not installed these tools, refer to “Changing the Tombstone Lifetime Attribute
in Active Directory” on page 508.
Making Backup Images of Domain Controllers

Proceed as follows:
1. After installing a domain controller, it is strongly recommended that you change the
tombstone lifetime value to suit your backup practices. The default is 180 days for
Server 2008 R2 Standard [for Server 2003, it was 60 days]. If you intend to restore
images older than the default value, you must change this value accordingly as
515
B0700SF – Rev E Appendix E. Guidelines for Using BESR for Backing Up and Restoring Domain Controllers
described in “Changing the Tombstone Lifetime Attribute in Active Directory” on

page 508.
2. Do not make the initial backup of domain controllers until they have been running
for at least twelve hours.
3. If you have secondary domain controllers, make sure the PDC and SDC are working
together properly. See “Checking the Health of Active Directory” on page 517.
4. You should make full backups of both the PDC and the SDC about the same time
(separated by minutes, not hours).
5. Backup all the active drives (e.g., C: and D:) at the same time.
6. Be sure to select the “Verify Recovery Point” option in the BESR window when creat-
ing the backup image.
Restoring Only One Domain Controller

This procedure applies when there is only one domain controller being restored (for example, in
the case of a hardware failure), whether it is the only domain controller or there are multiple
domain controllers present. Proceed as follows:
1. The domain controller backup image should not be older (i.e., greater) than the
tombstone lifetime value.
2. Shutdown the domain controller and restore its BESR image as described in Symantec
System Recovery 2011 Workstation Edition and Server Edition Guide for I/A Series Work-
stations (B0700ES).
3. After the domain controller is rebooted, verify it is working properly. See “Checking
the Health of Active Directory” on page 517.
Restoring Multiple Domain Controllers from Backup

Images
If it is necessary to restore multiple domain controllers from backup images at the same time, such
as in a testing environment, perform the following procedure:
1. The domain controller backup images should not be older (i.e., greater) than the
tombstone lifetime value. The backup images should have been created about the
same time.
2. Shutdown the domain controllers.
3. Boot up only the PDC and restore its BESR backup image as described in Symantec
System Recovery 2011 Workstation Edition and Server Edition Guide for I/A Series Work-
stations (B0700ES).
4. Seize the FSMO roles as described in “Seizing Active Directory Operations Master
Roles” on page 454. Be aware that this procedure is described in the context of mov-
ing these roles to another domain controller when the PDC is no longer available. In
the context for this procedure, it is performed on a PDC that is being restored from a
BESR image. This may not be necessary but it is good practice. In any case, verify the
roles.
516
Appendix E. Guidelines for Using BESR for Backing Up and Restoring Domain Controllers B0700SF – Rev E
5. Set the PDC as “authoritative” for SYSVOL. Refer to the “Authoritative FRS restore”
procedure described in the following Microsoft article:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290762
6. Boot up the next domain controller (SDC). If this SDC is On-Mesh, restore its BESR
backup image as described in Symantec System Recovery 2011 Workstation Edition and
Server Edition Guide for I/A Series Workstations (B0700ES). If this SDC is Off-Mesh, it
is recommended that the box be reinstalled.
7. After the domain controller is rebooted, if it has been reinstalled, join it to the
domain. In any case, verify it is working properly. See the next section’s instructions
on checking the health of Active Directory.
8. Repeat steps 6 and 7 for each additional domain controller.
Checking the Health of Active Directory

Perform the following checks to assess the health of Active Directory.
If there is only one domain controller, you can run the following:
1. Open a command prompt window - click the Start button and then select Programs
-> Accessories -> Command Prompt.
2. Type dcdiag and press <Enter>. This will start the process of checking for errors.
If there are multiple domain controllers, you should verify that replication is working:
1. Open a command prompt window - click the Start button and then select Programs
-> Accessories -> Command Prompt.
2. Type repadmin /showreps and press <Enter>. Verify there are no failures.
3. Launch the Event Viewer (click the Start button -> Control Panel -> Administra-
tive Tools -> Event Viewer).
a. Look in the Application log and verify there are no “userenv” errors.
b. Look in the File Replication Service log and verify that an Event “13516” message
is at the top of the log.

Appendix F. I/A Series MESH
Configurator
This appendix describes how to use the I/A Series Mesh Configurator for workstations with
Windows 7 and servers with Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard on The Mesh control
network.
The I/A Series Mesh Configurator application installs the COMEX protocol and Redundant
Ethernet Data Link (REDL) virtual adapter, and configures Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for
stations on The Mesh control network. A station can have one or two connections to The Mesh
(if it has one or two switch connections in System Definition).
The Mesh Configurator provides a user interface to select the Network Interface Cards (NICs) for
these connections.
Figure F-1. MESH Configurator NIC Selection
Silent Installation
The Day 0 installer will attempt to configure The Mesh connections automatically. You are not
prompted with a graphical interface if the workstation has:
 Two switch connections, and there are exactly two NICs in PCI Slots, or
 One switch connection, and there is exactly one NIC in a PCI Slot.
In these cases, The Mesh Configurator selects the NIC(s) in the PCI Slot(s) for The Mesh con-
nections.
519
B0700SF – Rev E Appendix F. I/A Series MESH Configurator
Manual NIC Selection

The graphical interface is always presented if:
 The location of a NIC cannot be identified as an Integrated port or PCI Slot,
 The workstation is using an Off-Mesh Domain Controller, or
 The configurator is run after the Day 0 installation.
In Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard, it is no longer possible programmatically to
determine the slot of each NIC, so The Mesh Configurator attempts to map the location of each
NIC, based on the platform and BIOS settings. If this mapping fails, the location of each NIC is
listed as “Unknown”.
Figure F-2. NIC Selection on Unknown Platform/BIOS
When NIC locations are “Unknown”, you need to manually select the NICs for The Mesh con-
nections. The following procedure is recommended:
1. Disconnect all Ethernet cables except those from The Mesh (and from the Off-Mesh
Domain Controller, if one is in use).
NOTE
Do not assign static IP addresses to the workstation NICs before running The Mesh
Configurator. If the configurator reports an IP conflict, find the adapter with the
duplicate IP address, change it to use DHCP, then run the configurator again.
2. Display the Network Connections from the Start menu -> Network and Sharing
Center -> Change adapter settings (or type “view network connections”
from the Start menu search bar), and set the view to Details.

4. Identify and record the Device Names that do not have a red X next to their icons.
These are the Device Names that should be selected in The Mesh Configurator.
NOTE
Take care not to confuse Names with Device Names. In the above example, the
Allied Telesis adapter 2 is not the same NIC as Local Area Connection 2.
5. If installing with an Off-Mesh Domain Controller, you are prompted to select the
NIC connected to the Domain Controller’s network.
521
Figure F-5. Off-MESH NIC Selection
6. After selecting the NIC for the Off-Mesh Domain Controller (or if installing without
one), you are prompted to select the NIC(s) connected to The Mesh control network.
Figure F-6. NICs on The MESH Control Network Selection
NOTE
A NIC selected for the Off-Mesh Domain Controller will be removed from the list
of available NICs when selecting The Mesh connection(s).
Unless there is an error or further user interaction is required, The Mesh Configurator exits
silently. If no error message is returned, this indicates a successful installation.
522
Appendix F. I/A Series MESH Configurator B0700SF – Rev E
Post Day 0 Operations

After adding, replacing, or moving an NIC, you must run The Mesh Configurator to ensure
proper network bindings.
NOTE
You must run The Mesh Configurator after restoring a workstation image from a
backup created on different hardware (for example, when replacing defective hard-
ware).
Open the configurator from the Start menu -> All Programs -> Invensys -> IASeries ->
Utilities -> Mesh Configurator (or type “mesh configurator” from the Start menu
search bar).
 The Mesh Configurator cannot run while The Mesh networking is enabled. If neces-
sary, it will turn off I/A Series and restart the workstation before running.
 The Mesh Configurator can only be run by users with administrator credentials.
The configurator remembers the selections made on previous installations. Previously selected
NIC(s) will be checked; you can leave them checked or select new NIC(s). If you originally
installed The Mesh Configurator with an Off-Mesh Domain Controller, it prompts you to select
the NIC connected to the Domain Controller’s network.
NOTE
The Mesh Configurator does not support Post Day 0 Operations on single-NIC
configurations.
Identifying Cable A and Cable B

When two connections to The Mesh control network are configured, the connection in the lower
numbered slot is considered Cable A, while the connection in the higher numbered slot is consid-
ered Cable B. (If the slots are not numbered, the top slot is Cable A, while the bottom slot is
Cable B.)
If one Ethernet port is a PCI slot and the other is an Integrated port, the PCI Slot is Cable A and
the Integrated port is Cable B. This configuration is not recommended.
Due to operating system limitations, if the locations are “Unknown”, the Cable A and Cable B
selection will be non-deterministic, and may change each time you run the configurator. In this
case, the cables have to be manually identified by unplugging each cable and noting which cable is
marked “bad” in your System Management tools. For details, refer to “Monitoring the System in
System Management Displays (B0193JC), or “Workstations, Peripherals, and Network Printers” in
System Manager (B0750AP).

Appendix H. SNMP Community
String Configuration
This appendix describes how to configure the SNMP community string for workstations with
Windows 7 and servers with Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard.
SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is an internet protocol used in network manage-
ment systems to monitor network-attached devices such as workstations, servers, routers,
switches, and so forth.
The SNMP community string is a text string that acts as a password to authenticate messages that
are sent between the management software and the device (the SNMP agent). This string must be
configured in two places: the SNMP service (included with the Windows operating system) and
the I/A Series Server Manager configuration file. It should be configured only after the I/A Series
software has been installed on the workstation or server.
NOTE
The community string is case-sensitive and must be identical in both places.
To configure the SNMP service, proceed as follows:

1. Log on with an account that has administrative privileges.
2. Click the Start button, and click Control Panel -> Administrative Tools ->
Services.
3. Scroll down to the SNMP Service, right-click on it, and then click Properties.
4. In the SNMP Service Properties dialog box, shown in Figure H-1, select the Secu-
rity tab.
5. During the initial installation of the I/A Series software, a default “Invensys” commu-
nity string is added to the workstation/server. If this default string is present in the
Accepted community names field (see Figure H-1), you must remove it. After the ini-
tial installation of the I/A Series software, this default string is listed in the servm.cfg
file. Proceed as follows:
a. Using Windows Explorer, navigate to the \usr\fox\sysmgm\smat\ folder on the
drive on which the I/A Series software is installed (typically D:\).
b. If present, open the text file named: servm.cfg
If this file is not present, then it is likely that the default string has already been
removed at an earlier time, and you can skip to step 8.
c. In the servm.cfg file, locate the default string, adjacent to the text
“default_string: ”. Now you can close the servm.cfg file.
d. Once you know the default string, click that string in the Accepted community
names field in the SNMP Service Properties dialog box, and click Remove.
527
B0700SF – Rev E Appendix H. SNMP Community String Configuration
Figure H-1. SNMP Service Properties Dialog Box
6. Under “Accepted community names” area, click the Add… button.

7. Select the appropriate permission level for the community string in the “Community
Rights” drop-down list to specify how the host processes SNMP requests from the
selected community. Normally, READ ONLY is recommended.
8. In the “Community Name” box, type your community string.
NOTE
Be aware that your community string is case-sensitive.
9. Click Add.
To limit the acceptance of SNMP packets, click the Accept SNMP packets from
these hosts bullet. Click the Add… button, and then type the appropriate host
name, IP address or IPX address in the Host name, IP or IPX address box. You can
restrict the access to the local host (127.0.0.1) or only specific servers by using this set-
ting.
10. Click OK when done.
528
Appendix H. SNMP Community String Configuration B0700SF – Rev E
11. For the settings to take effect, right-click the SNMP service from the Services window.
Stop and then restart the SNMP service.
To configure the I/A Series Server Manager configuration file, proceed as follows:
1. Using Windows Explorer, navigate to the \usr\fox\sysmgm\smat\ folder on the drive
on which the I/A Series software is installed (typically D:\).
2. Open (or create) the text file named: servm.cfg
3. Type the community string using the following format:
default_string: yourcommunitystring
(Type in the same string you used above.)
4. Save the file and then reboot.
For security purposes, it is highly recommended that you do not use a well-known default com-
munity string such as “public.” You should use a string that is compliant with your site’s password
complexity policy.

Appendix J. Printer Sharing
This appendix describes how to enable sharing to printers on stations with Windows 7 or
Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard operating systems, if desired.
As with previous Microsoft operating systems, Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 Stan-
dard allow a printer to be shared by multiple stations.
However, to do this, Microsoft requires that the Windows Firewall service be enabled.
NOTE
Enabling this service does not require the Microsoft Windows Firewall to be used.
For I/A Series workstations and servers, Invensys provides the McAfee
configurable firewall as the preferred firewall and recommends that the Microsoft
Windows Firewall not be used.
Turning on the Windows Firewall Service

To turn on the Windows Firewall service without turning on the Windows Firewall itself, proceed
as follows:
1. Log on to the workstation or server using an account that has administrative
privileges.
2. Click the Start button, and select Control Panel -> Administrative Tools ->
Services.
3. In the Services window, scroll down to the Windows Firewall service, right-click
on it, and then click Properties.
4. Change the “Startup type” to Automatic. Click Apply.
5. Click Start.
6. Click OK.
7. Close the Services window.
On standard I/A Series stations (that is, stations which do not have security enhancements for
I/A Series software), the Windows firewall is automatically turned on when this service is enabled.
The firewall must be turned off as follows:
8. Click the Start button, and select Control Panel -> Windows Firewall.
9. At the left edge of the window, click Turn Windows Firewall on or off.
10. In each section, select the Turn off Windows Firewall (not recommended)
radio button as shown in Figure J-1.
535
B0700SF – Rev E Appendix J. Printer Sharing
Figure J-1. Windows Firewall Settings
11. Click OK.

12. Close the Windows Firewall window.
Sharing a Printer
To share a printer hosted by a workstation with Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2 Stan-
dard, proceed as follows:
1. Click the Start button, and click Devices and Printers.
2. Right-click the icon of the printer that is to be shared and select Printer
properties.
3. In the Properties dialog box, click the Sharing tab.
4. Click the Change Sharing Options button if it is displayed as shown in Figure J-2.
536
Appendix J. Printer Sharing B0700SF – Rev E

5. Check the “Share this printer” checkbox and type in a Share name.
6. If this printer will be shared with a station that has a 32-bit OS (such as an x86 version
of Windows XP), install additional drivers (before setting up the station with
Windows XP) by clicking the Additional Drivers… button and then by checking
the x86 checkbox.
Otherwise, click OK. If you see the following error, the Windows Firewall service has
not been turned on as described in the previous section: “Operation could not be
completed (Error 0x000006D9)”
537
B0700SF – Rev E Appendix J. Printer Sharing
Connecting to a Shared Printer on Another I/A Series

Station
To use the shared printer from another I/A Series station, run the “Add Printer” wizard on that
station. For a station with Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard, proceed as follows
1. Click the Start button, and click Devices and Printers.
2. Click Add a printer at the top (or right-click in the window and select Add a
printer).
3. Click Add a network, wireless or Bluetooth printer.
4. In the Add Printer dialog box, click The printer that I want isn't listed.
5. Click the Select a shared printer by name radio button.
6. Type the location of the printer, e.g., \\computername\printername, where “computer-
name” is the name of the computer hosting the printer and “printername” is the share
name you chose in step 5 in the previous section.
7. Click Next. If prompted to install drivers to complete install, click Yes and respond
to the prompts.
538
Appendix K. Troubleshooting
This appendix provides troubleshooting procedures.
Setting Time Correctly After Failure to Continue

Software Installation After Reboot (SDC or Domain
Client)
If after connecting an SDC or a secure domain client to an I/A Series domain and the software
installation does not continue after a reboot, the system time may not have been set correctly. An
indication that this has occurred is that the software installation attempts to continue but will not
until a username and password is provided for an account with administrative privileges.
To verify if the time has not been properly set, proceed as follows to check that the group policies
are being applied:
1. From the start menu, select Run. In the Open: field, type “rsop.msc” as shown in
Figure K-1 and click OK to continue.
Figure K-1. Run rsop.msc
539
B0700SF – Rev E Appendix K. Troubleshooting
2. In the Resultant Set of Policy window, right-click on Computer Configuration and

select Properties as shown in Figure K-2. The red X on the Computer Configura-
tion entry indicates that there is a problem applying policies on this station.

540
Appendix K. Troubleshooting B0700SF – Rev E
3. In the Computer Configuration Properties dialog box, select the Error Informa-
tion tab to view the errors for this policy set. The error shown in Figure K-3 indicates
that the time does not match the time on the domain controller: “The clocks on the
client and server machine are skewed.”
Figure K-3. Computer Configuration Properties Dialog Box
4. If the error shown in Figure K-3 is found on your system, fix the time on the SDC or
domain client as described in the “Server Preparation” of the appropriate chapter for
your station in this document and reboot. After rebooting, the software installation
may be restarted by running Setup.exe on the installation DVD.
Accept the UAC request in order to start the installation.
