Setting Up Server Records

After the network servers are established on the network and Polaris software has been installed, you register the following network servers in Polaris Administration:

• Polaris Application server/SQL Server (catalog database)
• Search server (Polaris search engine)
• Web Server (Polaris PowerPAC applications, report server, Language Editor)
• Telephone (outbound and inbound telephony)

You also register remote resources as search targets for staff and patrons by registering the target servers in Polaris. The process is similar to registering your own servers. The remote resources can be searched and results displayed using the same tools and user interface as for the local catalog.

Note:
Innovative Interfaces sets up and registers your servers at installation and implementation. However, you can use the procedures in this unit if your server configuration changes, or if you add remote search targets.
