We decided to try to use our Windows-based PLC-related software in virtual machines so that we do not have to migrate everything because of hardware change. Myung created a Virtual Terminal Server for us, halldts1.jlab.org on 28-subnet. Note that we already had License Server on a virtual machine. To login to this machicne I use rdesktop -g 1800x1000 -d JLAB halldts1, and the hallduser has admin-privileges on this machine.
Installation of Rockwell Automation software on VM
- Download RSLinx Enterprise from Rockwell Automation support site as an Upgrade. For downloading all these "upgrades" I use Joshua Ballard as my name and the serial numbers from the box that Mark used to have.
- Unzip the file, and Run As Administrator the setup.exe file. We need to install FactoryTalk Service Platform from the installation menu first, then install the RSLinx Enterprise itself.
- Restart the virtual machine.
- Downland RSNetWorks for EtherNet. Got an error message about "Qualify for Upgrade". Canceled.
- Download RS5000 Pro . Unzip it and Run As Administrator the Setup.exe file. During installation chose Complete option. Also check all box for optional components.
