Installation of the Software

If your organization took advantage of the Remote Installation, the trainer will quickly review the location and setup for each server(s) and less time will be spent on this task. If the remote installation did not happen, then the trainer will take the time to complete the Remote Installation tasks first, prior to completing the following setup:

• Complete hardware inventory (recording IPs, passwords, specifications, etc.)
• Installation and configuration of Theatre Manager on each of the workstations
• Connectivity testing from workstations to server
• Check on status - setup up of sub-domain http://tickets.xxxxxx.yyy
• Check on status - router port forwarding 80, 443, 20, 21, 6181 etc.
• Check on status - getting TSL confirmation email address
• Start – SMTP Mail Server, authentication required?, user id, password
• Start - Testing of SMTP Mail Settings to verify that emails can be sent from Theatre Manager
• Ensure copies of non-Theatre Manager applications are available (PowerPoint, Excel)
