Getting started 1 For successful installation of IMPAX, servers must meet certain hardware and software requirements. The IMPAX cluster can also be installed under different configurations. Prerequisite knowledge The installation procedures require that you have general knowledge of computer hardware and software concepts and proficiency in operating and troubleshooting computer software.
The relationship between the Data Center and the various clusters is characterized as a hub and spoke. The Data Center (hub) serves or archives data from the entities, known as spokes. Order of cluster installations The IMPAX cluster has many components and each depends on other components in the cluster. To correctly install and configure components in the cluster, follow this order of installation: 1. Install the Database Server, Archive Server, and Network Gateway. IMPAX 6.
Install the core Server components and create the portable password file required to install other IMPAX components. Do not configure the Server components at this time; the Application Server must be installed before the Server components can be configured. Refer to the guide appropriate to your configuration. Required guide: One of IMPAX 6.3 AS3000 Installation and Configuration Guide or IMPAX 6.3 AS300 Installation Guide 2. Install the Application Server.
• Database Server hosting the SQL database The database used by the IMPAX 6.3 AS300 cluster. It collects, organizes, and manages all patient and study demographic data that is contained in DICOM header files. • Network Gateway Workflow manager of the IMPAX 6.3 AS300 cluster. It receives studies from modalities and provides DICOM security and validation. Installation and configuration of a Windows-based Network Gateway is covered in this guide.
Another possibility is to combine an AS3000 Database Server with an AS300 (Windows-based) Archive Server and Network Gateway. This is called a mixed-host configuration. The Curator, Application Server, and Client components must be installed on the Windows operating system. IMPAX 6.

Troubleshooting A As you install or upgrade IMPAX servers, you may encounter various installation and configuration problems. Server name registered in SQL Server is incorrect Issue If the server name registered in SQL Server is not the same as the server name registered in Windows, you must update the server name in SQL Server. Details This discrepancy may happen if you use a ghost image when installing the third-party applications. Solution To check the server name registered in Windows 1.
go sp_addserver , local go MVF database software encountered errors during installation Issue The IMPAX MVF database software installation instructions ask you to look for errors when installing packages. In doing so, you find some. Solution If an error occurs while installing the MVF database, reinstall the database package: 1. Determine if the security package was applied as per the instructions that follow. 2. Rebuild the IMPAX database as per the instructions that follow.
Cannot connect to the Administration Tools Issues You cannot log into the Administration Tools. Details Two possibilities exist for this problem: • The Administration Tools service can encounter problems when you first attempt to log in. • The IMPAX Server tries to communicate with the Administration Tools over the default port range of 1200-1270. If these ports are used up, the Server cannot reach the Administration Tools.
Details Server license keys can present problems if they are not stored in the correct directory or are not matched to the MAC addresses of the machines. To function properly, the correct number of license keys must be located in the correct directory. Solution Ensure that the appropriate license keys are installed in the correct location. For information on obtaining a MAC address, refer to Obtaining Server license keys (refer to page 46).
Solution Before retrying the installation, attempt to determine why the installation failed and correct the problem, if possible. You can find specific error messages and more information on the installation in these log files: • C:\mvf\data\logs\mitra_install.log • C:\mvf\data\logs\SystemInfo.log • C:\mvf\data\logs\build_mvf.log After the problem is determined and resolved, reinstalling the IMPAX software requires four steps: 1.
Archive and security considerations B If you are using an Oracle Database Server on a Solaris host (in a mixed-host configuration), also refer to the Appendixes of the IMPAX 6.3 AS3000 Installation and Configuration Guide. Types of archives A jukebox archive has one or more drives where media is loaded, multiple slots that hold the media for easy storage retrieval, and a robotic changer to move media around within the jukebox.
CD-R and DVD-R CD-R is a small, portable, round medium used to store information in digital form. DVD-R can store much more information than CD-R using the optical disk technology. CD-R and DVD-R archives use logical volumes. Logical volumes are valid archive locations independent of cache and media. They are not intermediate data structures used for staging data prior to burn and they cannot be manually deleted without risk of permanent data loss.
• All IMPAX services are configured to run under restricted user accounts that can access only the resources they need. These accounts are created during the IMPAX installation. • To ensure that the SQL database account used for access does not have administrative privileges, access to dangerous and unnecessary extended stored procedures is removed or disabled. Limiting the privileges of the account reduces the risk of SQL injection attacks or exposure to other database vulnerabilities.
Account AgfaService Groups they belong to • Administrators Services that run under the account • Administrator account used by Agfa support For a service on one machine in a network to access the resources (files, folders, and registry keys) that it needs on another machine in the network, a user account with the same user ID and password must be created on each machine. The user IDs and passwords are maintained in an encrypted password file on the Database Server.

Application Server Intermediary server between IMPAX Client and IMPAX Server machines. LDAP, Documentation, and other Business Services reside on the Application Server. archive A physical device for long-term storage and retrieval, such as DVD-R, DLT, or MOD. An archive can be set up in a jukebox or non-jukebox configuration.
C-STORE the HIS. If the criteria match, then the images can be stored permanently. The mechanism used to transfer SOP Instances between application entities. hostname Curator The hostname is a common alphanumeric alias for the IP address of a station. Curator is responsible for compressing incoming images into the Mitra Wavelet format and storing them in the web cache. These studies can be accessed by remote or local clients. Multiple instances of Curator can be supported.
master Curator non-jukebox archive When using multiple Curators, the first Curator that runs, which owns the job queue. Creates backup copies of all clinical data so that damaged data can be recovered if the original is lost. Functions much like a jukebox archive, except that it has no mailslots or changer.
