Please note that installation of cadett ELSA with dynamic workstations is covered by the cadett ELSA Installation and Update Guide 2019 found in the \ELSA\MANUAL\ENGLISH folder of the cadett ELSA main installation.
Here, you will find a description of the dynamic workstation feature as such, not a full installation documentation. Please refer to the PDF file mentioned above for a complete installation instruction.
Nevertheless, in short, a multi-user installation of cadett ELSA utilising dynamic workstations is made in the following way:
1.The main installation is made as a conventional server installation in the same way as with standard fixed workstations.
2.The DYN_WS.INI configuration file, located in the main directory of cadett ELSA (like X:\ELSA or similar) is edited to specify the drive letter that should be used as substituted drive for the user-specific workstation directory (for example U:).
3.A neutral workstation is installed on each computer that will host dynamic workstations. In a typical “small thin client solution”, that would be on the combined cadett ELSA/Citrix server. In a “large thin client solution”, that would be on all involved Citrix servers. For conventional “thick clients”, it would be on each computer that will be used as a cadett ELSA workstation.
4.The first time cadett ELSA is started on a specific computer for a specific user, everything needed to run cadett ELSA will be created and configured automatically. Please note that the workstations in a solution like this will be personal (by user), instead of by computer, as in a conventional installation.
