Capturing machine name

Hi,

 

We are about to roll out windows 7 and was wondering how does Tessitura capture machine name in TX_machine_location table?

The reason I want to understand this process is to we want user to be able to run application right after its installed and shouldn't have to see "This machine does not have assigned location".

The way I want to approach this is to have a SQL trigger to run stored procedure to update TX_machine_location avoiding to display that annoying message to user.

Has anyone worked on this or has any other way to achieve what we want to?

 

Many Thanks,

    Hi Monic

     

    Why not just add all the new machine names to the table in advance? Easy enough to script that, or just add them manually if there aren’t that many. Certainly much easier than trying to do it with a trigger.

    Tess won’t automatically add the machine name into the table until someone tries to connect for the first time.

  • I'm with Ken. It's much easier. Whenever we roll out new PCs (or newly upgraded ones), we just enter the machine names into the table before we distribute the computers to staff. If you've got hundreds of computers I recommend scripting it, presuming you know what the machine names are. If it's not so many, you can just enter it directly in the system tables module.
