Standalone workstations
Workstation storage options
The Cary UV Workstation is available with storage of application files in the local database (Cary UV Workstation software). Cary UV Workstation uses PostgreSQL database for application data storage. It is installed and configured automatically. Agilent does not support the use of a PostgreSQL version other than the one installed.
When configured with the OpenLab software, there is an additional built-in Content Management database for secure long-term report and record storage (Cary UV Workstation Plus software). Cary UV Workstation Plus also uses a version of PostgreSQL database for both Shared Services and Content Management. It is installed and configured automatically. Agilent does not support the use of a PostgreSQL version other than the one installed by the OpenLab software.

Network Requirements
Agilent Cary UV Workstation and Workstation Plus Requirements and Supported Instruments 13
3Network Requirements Introduction 13 LAN connectivity 13 Domain requirements 14 Specific requirements 15
This chapter describes the network requirements that must be met in order to support the environmental computing needs of Cary UV Workstation and Cary UV Workstation Plus.
Introduction
Cary UV systems can use network infrastructure in order to support the communication between PC and instrument. This communication is based on standard TCP/IP protocols and requires no configuration or minimum performance requirements.
LAN connectivity
When using LAN communications to connect PCs to an instrument, use one of these methods: Connect via an isolated switch using standard CAT-5 or CAT-6 network cabling LAN communication hardware should be 100/1000 Mbps (or higher) speed
capable. LAN communication must be on the same subnet as instruments, and
preferably on the same segment.
Network Requirements
14 Agilent Cary UV Workstation and Workstation Plus Requirements and Supported Instruments
Domain requirements
Domains support the flow of information and user access rights across machines in the network. This means that all machines and instruments within the networked Cary UV Workstation Plus system must reside within the same domain or have the appropriate cross domain trusts to allow name-based communications between all components in the system. In the case of a workstation installation, domains are only relevant if you are using a Microsoft Windows domain-based authentication model. In this case the workstation must always be able to communicate with domain components in order to function as expected.
Installing Cary UV Workstation Plus will apply network exceptions to the Microsoft Windows firewall under the domain profile to result in a functional system. The components necessary to support Cary UV Workstation Plus on a domain are: Domain controller broadcasts the domain name and negotiates access to
machines. Domain name server (DNS) maintains records of what hostnames belong to
which IP on the network. This component is always required for effective components communications in networked systems.
Active directory maintains the list of users and their access rights on the domain.
NOTE The domain name server (DNS) must be able to resolve the IPv4 address of all instrument controllers and instruments. Any unresolved instrument controller or instrument will disrupt the functionality of OpenLab resulting in errors or delays. IPv6 is not supported and must be deactivated.
The domain components above host a variety of services and settings that must be configured appropriately to allow communication across machines. The following services and settings will need to be configured to fit your domain. Your internal IT group is responsible for proper configuration of any custom domain solutions. These include settings for: Lookup zones and hostnames Group and security policies Subnet masks and Virtual LANs IP reservation (static or DHCP)
Network Requirements
Agilent Cary UV Workstation and Workstation Plus Requirements and Supported Instruments 15
Specific requirements
If you intend to use your system in an environment subject to data security regulations, ensure the following settings related to time synchronization: Your network must have a time synchronization service to make sure that all
systems are using a consistent and valid time. To ensure that users cannot change the time, users must not operate using an
administrator account.
