Step 2 - Inform Insula Software Of Installation
Please inform Insula Software five (5) working days prior to performing the installation so that support resources can be made available should you run into any difficulties that require immediate assistance.
To inform Insula Software about the installation, send an email to support@insulagroup.com.au.
Step 3 - Schedule Installation
The installation SHOULD be performed outside of office hours to ensure there are no users connected to the servers.
This will ensure there is no downtime for staff.
For large sites, Insula Software HIGHLY recommends that the installation be performed on a weekend.
Step 4 - Ensure Sufficient Privileges
On any system being installed (including servers and workstations), the user performing the installation should have sufficient privileges to install applications (e.g., administrator privileges).
Step 5 - Managing The Install For Staff
Installing any software can affect business processes and consequently the way that an organisation's staff perform their roles.
The following is a list of deployment considerations for System Administrators and Managers.
Managers
All managers should review the following:
Review Release Notes: As the release notes details new features, recent changes, resolved issues and administrative issues, all managers should review the release notes.
Disseminate Information: Disseminate the information contained in these release notes to all affected staff.
Inform Staff of the New Version: If an update or upgrade is to be performed, inform staff before and after the installation.
Software User Guide: The User Guide is available from the Help menu (Help > Contents).
Consider Education and Training: Education and staff training for new features of the software is highly recommended.
System Administrators
All system administrators should review the following:
