Technical Environment
| Description: |
The Office of Fisheries, Marine Fisheries Division uses SAS® version 6.12 as its' database management system. The SAS® server runs in the VMS Operating System on the Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC) Alpha platform. The data managers may access the databases by logging on to personal computers that are connected to a local area network or by using a stand alone terminal. The server holds large amounts of data and has the networking power needed to interface with several machines at once, allowing for concurrent usage of databases. Hardware Components 1. Local Processing Facility Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC) ALPHASERVER Model 300 4/266 2. Ethernet Allows for the transfer of information between the local processing facility and the various pieces of hardware and software. Uses TCP/IP software to translate various languages to permit communication among applications. 3. Microsoft® NT network Allows access to the databases from various locations within the Baton Rouge Office and remote field offices. Each client is networked to various peripherals (IE: printservers, plotters, scanners) 4. Tape backup system Allows computer operators to save work performed at the terminals and personal computers and backup work done in the event of power failure. This system is equipped to read 8mm tapes. The backup drive contains five, 20gb drives capable of storing 100 gigabytes of information. |
