Configure PDS Servers on Windows 2003
Step Description Comments/ Problems / Workarounds Additional Resources TR / CR Setup Notes
Load Operating System on PDS Servers
PDS requires a variety of server functions, as detailed in the procedures below. An individual
computer can perform one or all of these functions, or a combination of several functions.
Intergraph recommends using separate computers for each function.
Install Windows 2003 Server SP2 on the PDS Server You can download the service pack from the Microsoft web site.
Configure PDS Servers
For 32bit computers, add to the registry a new string value named
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Intergraph\Common, with a value of
c:\win32app\ingr\share
For 64bit computers, add to the registry a new string value named
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Intergraph\Common, with a
value of c:\win32app\ingr\share
This registry entry is required for proper operation of the RIS Client.
Add to the registry a new DWORD value named
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Command
Processor\DisableUNCCheck, with a value of 1
This registry entry is required in order to avoid problems when more than 10 users attempt to access a
shared folder. This key is case sensitive.
Modify the
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SecurePipeServers\WI
NREG registry entry
This modification is required in order for PDS to be able to resolve node names and paths into UNC
paths for non-administrator users. For more information, please refer to the PDS Project Setup
Technical Reference. There are three recommended methods for modifying this key. You can add the
shares on the server to the allowed paths in the WINREG key, grant access permissions to certain
users or user groups from within the Registry Editor, or delete the WINREG key. Intergraph
recommends the first method, adding allowed paths to the WINREG key. To add all allowed paths, add
System\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanManServer\Shares as the value for the AllowedPaths key in
the WINREG entry.
Make sure that the Temp and Tmp environment variables for users and system point to
c:\temp
To modify environment variables, open System in the Windows Control Panel, select the Advanced
tab, and then click Environment Variables. It is also necessary to complete this step on each user's
workstation before using PDS.
Create the c:\temp folder, share the folder as temp, and change permissions on the
folder to allow everyone full control
Install SmartPlant License Manager 2010 on the site license machine
The license machine controls licensing for PDS. It can be located on any machine in your network. The
SmartPlant License Manager license machine software could be installed on a stable, single node,
hardware configuration (such as a simple PC) with a static IP address.

You can create a new user named PDSBATCH exclusively to run batch jobs. This user should have
the same permissions as a user account used by a project manager. If site security policies allow it,
you may want to set the password for this user never to expire. An expired password on the user
account specified in this step could prevent batch jobs from running.
Log in as the user created in the previous step, and set the Temp and Tmp user and
system environment variables for this user to point to c:\Temp

keyin the database name and the database management system location. The database name could
simply be PDS and the location similar to the following: c:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1. The database
username and password should be the same as those you created earlier using the sql scripts and
the same as the schema you are creating. The OS Type is Windows NT. For the OS username and
password, enter the operating system user name that should be used when accessing the database.
Repeat the previous step for each additional schema
PDS uses the following schemas: PD_projectname , DD_projectname , RA_projectname ,
RU_projectname , EE_projectname , RE_projectname , PRJ_projectname , HRF_projectname , and
MTO_projectname . Express Project Creation creates each of these schemas in turn, except for PRJ,
HRF, and MTO.
Specify the server name and drive letter for the project and for the
DesignReview/SmartPlant Review workstation
This step is only necessary if you intend to use SmartPlant Review.
If necessary, specify details for any FrameWorks sub-projects This step is only necessary if you intend to use FrameWorks Plus for structural design in the project.

Unless otherwise specified, the topics listed in the Additional Resources column
can be found in the Project Setup Technical Reference.
Configure PDS Workstations
Step Description Comments/ Problems / Workarounds Additional Resources TR / CR Setup Notes
Install Prerequisite Software on the PDS Workstation You must install the prerequisite software in the order in which it is listed.
Install MicroStation J 07.01.05.03
This product is available from Bentley Systems and delivered separately from PDS. PDS does not
support the Minimum Setup Type for MicroStation. Use the Complete Setup Type instead.
Install the Ris Client compatible with your Database from the product CD. (see
Database tabs)
Note: If you are recording an .iss file for silent installation, use this path to the setup.exe file: <setup
source folder path>\PDS\RISServer\RISShare\setup.exe.
Install Adobe Reader 8.0 This software is required to view the Software License Agreement.
Install Batch Services 06.01.00.## from the product CD
Install InterPlot Client 10.02.00.08
This product is available from Bentley Systems and delivered separately from PDS. This step is only
necessary if print/plotting jobs will be sent from this workstation.
Prepare the PDS Workstation These steps are required for all PDS workstations.
For 32bit computers, add to the registry a new string value named
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Intergraph\Common, with a value of
c:\win32app\ingr\share.
For 64bit computers, add to the registry a new string value named
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Intergraph\Common, with a
value of c:\win32app\ingr\share.
This registry entry is required for proper operation of the RIS Client.
Add to the registry a new DWORD value named
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Command
Processor\DisableUNCCheck, with a value of 1
This registry entry is required in order to avoid problems when more than 10 users attempt to access a
shared folder. This key is case sensitive.
Modify the
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SecurePipeServers\WI
NREG registry entry
This modification is required in order for PDS to be able to resolve node names and paths into UNC
paths for non-administrator users. For more information, please refer to the PDS Project Setup
Technical Reference.
There are three recommended methods for modifying this key. You can add the shares on the server
to the allowed paths in the WINREG key, grant access permissions to certain users or user groups
from within the Registry Editor, or delete the WINREG key. Intergraph recommends the first method,
adding allowed paths to the WINREG key.
To add all allowed paths, add System\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanManServer\Shares as the value
for the AllowedPaths key in the WINREG entry.
Make sure that the Temp and Tmp environment variables for users and system point to
c:\temp
To modify environment variables, open System in the Windows Control Panel, select the Advanced
tab, and then click Environment Variables.
Create the c:\temp folder, share the folder as temp, and change permissions on the
folder to allow everyone full control

Plant Design System (PDS) Installation and Configuration Checklist
14 5/12/2011]
Install and Configure PDS 2011 Software on the PDS Workstation
Note: If you are recording an .iss file for silent installation, use this path to the setup.exe file: <setup
source folder path>\PDS\PDS\setup.exe.
For each PDS module, specify the installation type and installation location
In most cases, you should select Local mode for all PDS modules. Refer to the Project Setup
Technical Reference for details on installing software in Client or Server mode.
Any system from which projects will be created must have all required products installed locally on the
same drive as the project file.
Make sure that the installation path does not contain any spaces. Intergraph recommends that you
install PDS in c:\win32app\ingr.
PD_Shell is required on all PDS workstations. Other PDS modules may be installed based on the
function of the workstation. For example, if a workstation is to be used for 3D piping, installing the
Drawing Manager software may not be necessary.
Specify the PDS 3D Control File
To specify a control file, click Start > All Programs > PD_Shell > PDS Configure. You can also
create a pds.cmd file in a central location, and then point each workstation to that file using the PDS
3D Control File dialog box.
Specify the location of the schema file
To specify a schema file, click Start > All Programs > RIS version number > RIS Schema
Manager. You can also create a parms file in a central location, and then copy the file to each
workstation. In this case, you should create a RIS_Parameters path in temporary folder.
Create PDS batch queues
Click Start > Programs > PD_Shell > PDS Queue to create batch queues. Select Enable all for
configuration and select the queues you want to create. If you have not done so, the system will
prompt you to create batch queues the first time you start PDS.
