Waters UNIFI software
The Waters UNIFI workstation configuration consists of the following components:
Workstation components
Purpose
UNIFI software
Database
Control instruments and devices to acquire, analyze, process, and report data, and to perform other information management functions.
Stores the metadata or descriptive information about the samples run
(processed results, sample identifiers, methods, and reports), in a relational database management system (RDBMS). Raw data are also stored in the database.
Workstation Runs on the Microsoft® Windows® 7 Professional SP 1, 64-bit operating system (OS).
Waters instrument systems
Groups of chromatographic instruments and mass spectrometers that you create to form an instrument system. These systems, which connect to a workstation, perform chromatographic (LC) and mass spectrometric (MS) analyses.
For example, a UNIFI instrument system based on Waters UPLC technology can include solvent manager, sample manager, column manager, one or more detectors, chromatographic columns, and an e-SAT/IN module. For MS analyses, its configuration can include a Xevo mass spectrometer.
The number of instrument systems supported by a UNIFI workstation depends on the type of detector included in the instrument system.
Number of instrument systems supported by a UNIFI workstation:
l
One instrument system that contains a quadruple mass spectrometer, or
l
One instrument system that contains a TOF (time of flight) mass spectrometer, or
l
Two instrument systems that contain optical detectors, such as a PDA or TUV
The Waters UNIFI workgroup configuration consists of the following components:

1 Introduction to UNIFI
Workgroup components
Purpose
UNIFI software
Workgroup server
Laboratory network devices
Control instruments and devices to acquire, analyze, process, and report data, and to perform other information management functions.
Stores the metadata or descriptive information about the samples run
(processed results, sample identifiers, methods, and reports), in a relational database management system (RDBMS). Raw data are also stored in the database. The Oracle Enterprise Manager (OEM) allows for monitoring and some management functions of the UNIFI database. UNIFI software also supports Oracle® Automatic Storage Management (ASM) for disk management (data files, redo logs, control files) on physical internal or external disks like a storage area network (SAN) disk.
Collect all data acquired by Waters instrument systems.
Recommendation: Procure a pre-configured LND from Waters. Doing so, is more efficient than performing the labor-intensive work of configuring a computer to serve as an LND.
The number of online instrument systems per LND depends on the type of detector included in the instrument system.
Maximum number of online instrument systems per LND:
l
One instrument system that contains a quadruple mass spectrometer, or
l
One instrument system that contains a TOF (time of flight) mass spectrometer, or
l
Two instrument systems that contain optical detectors, such as a PDA or TUV

Configuring the Hardware
Contents:
Preparing for UNIFI software
Except for a UNIFI workstation, all configurations require a pre-existing local area network
(LAN), so that the Workgroups system can function. Waters personnel do not install network cables.
To install and activate Waters licenses and options, you must use a computer connected to the Internet. Note, however, that this computer need not be the one running UNIFI software.
Before installing any hardware or software, it is wise to perform a full backup of your hard drives (see instructions provided by the manufacturer of your computer). After the installation, back up UNIFI data regularly.
Selecting the site
Locate the UNIFI system in a clean area that is free from shock, vibration, and extremes of temperature and humidity.
Environmental requirements
Install theUNIFI system in a draft-free position protected, away from excessive amounts of dust. Protect equipment from direct sunlight and heating and air conditioning vents.
Temperature and humidity
The UNIFI system can operate within the following temperature and humidity ranges:
l
Maintain an ambient temperature of between 15 and 28 °C
l
Ensure the ambient humidity does not exceed 80% relative humidity, non-condensing
Acceptable temperature and humidity ranges vary according to the model of the computer and printer.
Vibration
Do not install the UNIFI system near heavy machines such as compressors and generators, which can create excessive floor vibration.
18 October, 2013, 715004165 Rev. A 23
2 Configuring the Hardware
Magnetic fields
If the UNIFI system includes a mass spectrometer, position the system away from strong magnetic fields such as those generated by NMR systems or magnetic-sector mass spectrometers.
Radio emissions
Install the UNIFI system in an environment where radio frequency (RF) emission from surrounding sources is minimal. Possible sources of RF emission include RF-linked alarm systems, mobile telephones, and hand-held transmitters.
Exhaust outlets
If a UNIFI system includes a chromatographic system or mass spectrometer, to avoid exposure to solvent vapors, refer to the system's site preparation guide for exhaust requirements.
Space considerations
Allow sufficient bench space for the UNIFI personal workstation, Workgroup, or client computers (keyboard, monitor, system unit, and printer), as recommended in the documentation supplied with the computer.
For workstation installations, place computers on a lab bench or a desktop near the system instruments to enable control and tuning of the chromatography or MS system. The total bench space you require depends on the number of devices you plan to configure (pumps, detectors, autosamplers, and so on).
For Workgroup installations, place the laboratory network device and the client computer on a lab bench or a desktop near the system modules. Locate the workgroup server in a separate server room managed by IT personnel. Other client computers can be located anywhere on the network or domain.
Ventilation
Ensure the ventilation slots on all system modules are not blocked. Allow at least 15 cm of space on all sides of each module to ensure adequate air flow.
Cable lengths
Arrange the components of a chromatographic system to minimize cable lengths. Use optimal lengths to ensure proper signal transmission.
All Waters instruments are shipped domestically with a 2.3-m power cord connected to the rear of the chassis. International power cords are 2.5 m. For the data system (computer, monitor, keyboard, mouse), if required, you can use extension cables from a PC vendor.
Instrument arrangement
Place the workstation or client computer (computer, monitor, keyboard, mouse) or the laboratory network device (computer only) on a laboratory bench close to the system modules. If
24 18 October, 2013, 715004165 Rev. A
Installing the hardware the UNIFI system includes a mass spectrometer, locate the data system within 5 m of the mass spectrometer, to allow connection of the communication cables.
For information on the best arrangement of your UNIFI system and connected instruments, consult your Waters technical service representative.
Power supply
All UNIFI system components require a dedicated, earthed (grounded) power source.
Ensure that the power supply cables of the system modules easily reach the electrical outlets connected to a common ground.
Consider using a line conditioner or an uninterruptible power supply (UPS), for optimum long-term input-voltage stability.
If a UNIFIsystem includes a chromatographic system or a mass spectrometer, refer to its site preparation guide for the following power requirements:
l
Power supply
l
Electrical transformers
l
Uninterruptible power supply
Installing the hardware
Install UNIFI workstation hardware
The UNIFI workstation supports an optional, second, interface card for Ethernet instruments.
If you install UNIFI software on a computer that is not included in a network, you must install
a Microsoft loopback network adapter (see "Install a Microsoft loopback network adapter") .
To set up a UNIFI workstation:
1. Unpack and place the workstation in its final location.
2. Connect the keyboard, mouse, and monitor to the workstation.
3. Ensure the voltage-selection switch on the PC tower is set to the correct voltage for the laboratory supply.
4. To install other computer peripherals, such as a printer, see the installation documentation supplied with the device.
5. Switch on the PC, monitor, and peripheral devices.
6. Login to the Microsoft Windows 7 desktop using the administrator account with the password "waters".
7. If required, change the PC name and domain, and then connect to your facility's network.
8. If applicable, connect the Ethernet devices (see "Connect Ethernet instruments"
).
18 October, 2013, 715004165 Rev. A 25
2 Configuring the Hardware
Install UNIFI workgroup hardware
The UNIFI workgroup system comprises a server, one or more clients, and one or more laboratory network devices. Each computer in the workgroup system requires at least one network interface card. Ethernet instruments in a UNIFI workgroup connect to a laboratory network device.
To set up a UNIFI workgroup server:
1. Unpack and place the server in the desired location.
2. Connect the keyboard, mouse, and monitor to the server.
3. To install other computer peripherals, such as a printer, refer to the installation documentation supplied with the device.
4. Ensure that the network interface card is installed in the server.
To set up a UNIFI workgroup client:
1. Unpack and place the client in the desired location.
2. Connect the keyboard, mouse, and monitor to the client.
3. Ensure that the network interface card is installed in the client.
4. Repeat step 1 through step 3 for each client in the workgroup system.
5. Connect the client to the network.
To set up a UNIFI laboratory network device:
1. Unpack and place the laboratory network device in its final location.
2. Ensure that the network interface card is installed in the laboratory network and set up correctly.
3. Ensure that a second network interface card is present.
4. Connect the laboratory network device to the network.
5. Connect the Ethernet devices (see "Connect Ethernet instruments"
).
Connect Ethernet instruments
Ethernet instruments connect directly to a network interface card (NIC) installed in a workstation or laboratory network device. If you are connecting multiple Ethernet instruments, use a Waters-supplied switch to connect the Ethernet cable from the workstation or laboratory network device to the switch. Then plug each instrument into the switch.
The NIC used for instrument connections is separate and apart from the NIC used to communicate with your facility's network.
Multiple Ethernet connections require crossover cables to control a mass spectrometer through a network switch. In addition, resetting the link speed and duplex properties of an
NIC to Auto Detect can be necessary. In both cases, if you are using more than one NIC, you can modify the settings for a second NIC using the DHCP wizard after you install UNIFI software.

Before you begin installing a workgroup server
Before you begin installing UNIFI software on a workgroup server, you must complete these tasks:
l
Choose a database backup option.
l
l
Create Windows application server role.
Choose a database backup option
When you install UNIFI software on a workgroup server, you must choose one of three backup options:
l
Daily online (hot) backups
Tip: If you choose online hot backups as your database backup option, you can recover database in the event of database failure, no data are lost.
l
Daily offline (cold) backups
l
No backups
If you choose daily offline or online backups, the database backup runs automatically as a
Windows scheduled task. You can modify the time in Windows Task Scheduler.
Online hot backups
If you select this option, these actions occur:
l
A weekly full database backup plus daily incremental backups with archive log mode.
l
Windows scheduled tasks named "At1" and "At2" are automatically created to back up the database.
18 October, 2013, 715004165 Rev. A 41
4 Installing a UNIFI Workgroup
l
"At1" scheduled task performs a full online database backup every Monday morning at 2:59 a.m. (you can modify this time). It runs immediately after installing the database for first time.
l
"At2" scheduled task performs an incremental backup Tuesday through Sunday at
2:59 a.m. (you can modify this time).
l
During database backups, the database is online and available for use (users can log on to the software and they can acquire data).
When you select online hot backups as your database backup option, you can recover database in the event of database failure, no data are lost.
Offline cold backups
If you select this option, these actions occur:
l
A full database backup occurs daily without archive log mode.
l
A Windows scheduled task named "At1" is automatically created to back up the database every day at 2:59 a.m. (you can modify this time).
l
During database backups, the database is offline and unavailable (users cannot log on to the software and they cannot acquire data).
l
The amount of time it takes to back up the database depends on the size of the data
(the larger the volume of data, the longer it takes to back up the database).
When you select offline cold backups as your database backup option, you can recover the database up to the point of the last backup; data captured between backups is lost.
Fast Recovery Area size
If you chose online, hot backups during installation, the location for your database backups
(FRA) must be able to accept data from two backups simultaneously: the software does not delete the obsolete backup until it confirms that the current one is completed. Online, hot backups also include archive logs.
A database backup causes the software to generate a time-stamped log file that includes details about individual steps of the backup process. You can find this log file in this location:
[install drive]:\Waters\scripts\BackupRecoveryScripts\logs.

Before you begin installing a workgroup server
Retention of database backups
UNIFI Backup and Recovery options:
Option Description Recovery options
Daily online
(hot)
backups
A full online backup runs every
Monday morning at 2:59 a.m. Incremental backups run Tuesday through Sunday at 2:59 a.m.
You can fully recover the database. In the event of database failure, no data are lost because the data are backed up in archive logs between backups.
Daily offline
(cold) backup
No backup
A full offline backup runs every morning at 2:59 a.m. The database is not available during the backup process.
The software does not install a backup option.
You can recover the database to the point of the last backup. In the event of database failure, data captured since the last backup are lost.
You are responsible for backing up and restoring the database.
One full backup is kept in the Fast Recovery Area (FRA). Archive logs are removed when a new backup is made. When a new full database backup (level-0) is made, previous backups older than one week are removed from the FRA.
To recover the entire database, you must generate a second backup of the workgroup server, and then archive the contents of the Fast Recovery Area (FRA) to a network share or storage array.
The database is backed up and restored by using scripts that are installed on the workgroup server during installation. Only users with administrator and ora_dba privileges can backup and restore the database.
When the database is backed up, it typically compresses approximately 50 % compared to its original size.
Every time a database backup occurs, UNIFI software generates a log file that contains detailed information about the database backup process. The location of this log is: [install drive] waters\oracle\scripts\BackupRecoveryScripts\logs.
Configure disk drives
Before you install UNIFI software on a workgroup server, you must configure one or three disk drives for Oracle Automatic Storage Management (ASM). If you are using external storage, you can configure one disk, but it must be at least a 500 GB drive. The disk groups that you create become the default location for the files created in the database. The disk group type determines how Oracle ASM mirrors files. An ASM disk can be a disk device.
To configure disk drives for Oracle ASM:
1. From the Windows Start menu on the workgroup server, right-click Computer, and then select Manage.
2. From the Computer Management dialog box, click Storage > Disk Management.
Important: Ensure all disks are online and unallocated.

Install UNIFI software on a workgroup server
Waters recommends a domain-based network infrastructure, though a UNIFI workgroup configuration does not require it. If the workgroup server is in a different domain than the clients or laboratory network devices, you must ensure that the date and time-stamps are synchronized with a time server. In a Windows Server 2008 R2-based domain, the domain controllers are automatically configured as time servers for the domain.
Restriction: Do not install UNIFI software on the same machine as the domain controller.
To maximize uptime and minimize issues related to the network environment, Waters recommends that you follow these guidelines:
18 October, 2013, 715004165 Rev. A 45
4 Installing a UNIFI Workgroup
l
Organize all UNIFI–related accounts, computer and user, within the same domain.
l
If you are using real-time virus scanning, exclude all UNIFI–related folders and their subdirectories. Some real-time virus scanners mistake normal UNIFI software functionality for virus activity, causing data buffering problems.
l
Configure preferences in Oracle Enterprise Manager to notify you by email when disk space reaches a user-defined size. Doing so, helps you monitor database space usage. For more information, see the "Manage the server disk space" section in the
UNIFI System Administrator's Guide.
Important: After you install UNIFI software, do not change the IP address of the workgroup server. It is important that the workgroup server maintains a static IP address.Changing either of these may render UNIFI software unusable.
Before you begin
Before you install UNIFI software on a workgroup server, configure these Windows settings:
l
Verify Windows hosts file information
l
l
Configure network discovery and file and printer functions
l
l
l

The named user account can be local user account or domain user account. The domain user account is always referred as <domain name\user account>.
Tip: This procedure documents how to automate the copying of the database backups to a network location. It does not include data moved to an offline location by an offline storage management system.
To copy database backups to a network location using a named user account, you must perform these tasks:
l
Create an OS or domain user account with the correct permissions
l
l
Add credentials to access the network share to automatically access the network
l
Create the OracleCRSToken Service and then manually set the password
l
Stop the database and Oracle listener
l
l
Grant permission to the named user to use the Oracle resources
l
l
Start the database and then restart the server

The backup process creates and stores backup-related files in the following folders in the installation directory:
<installation_directory>WATERS > ORACLE > FLASH_RECOVERY_AREA > UNIFI folder
l
AUTOBACKUP folder includes a sub-folder named Year_Month_Day: for example,
2011_05_02. This folder contains a *.BKP file, which contains a backup of your control files.
l
BACKUPSET folder includes a sub-folder named Year_Month_Day. This folder contains a *.BKP file, which contains a backup of your database data files and table spaces.
Recommendation: Periodically back up the WatServiceHost logs and the portal folders contained in the C:\ProgramData\Waters\Logs folder.
To back up the WatServiceHost logs and portal folders:
1. From within a Windows Explorer window, show hidden folders.
2. Navigate to the C:\ProgramData folder, to view its content.

Default settings overview
When you install UNIFI software, you decide whether you want to configure policy and audit trail settings for a regulated (GxP) or non-regulated environment. If you chose "Configure settings for a regulated environment (GxP)", UNIFI software configures data folders, global policies, folder policies, roles, custom fields, event properties, an administrator user account, and predefined reasons to comply with GxP (Good Practice quality guidelines and regulations). You can change these settings at any time.
If you chose "Configure settings for a regulated environment (GxP)", UNIFI software configures these policies and settings.

Default settings for a non-regulated environment:
Policy Description
Global policies establish rules for the entire system, such as how to display the time and date in the software.
UNIFI software applies the GMP data folder reason policy to the Company
(root) data folder. This folder policy defines whether users are required to enter a reason and their passwords when they modify or delete objects such as, analysis injections, processing of analyses, reports, that reside in data folders.
If you don't want to apply this policy to all folders, you can revoke it.
Reasons explain why users performed an action, such as, modified an analysis
method, deleted a data folder, or approved a report. Reasons created in advance save users time because once they are created, users can select an appropriate reason from a list and do not need to create their own reason.
Previously created reasons are called "predefined" and ensure that reasons recorded within the event log are consistent.
Roles are a set of permissions that control users' ability to perform tasks and functions in the software. Roles are based on users' job functions, such as a chemist or lab technician. Initially, the UNIFI software ships with the system administrator, chemist, analyst, guest, and field service engineer roles, but you can define as many roles to suit your company's needs.
UNIFI software is shipped with one default Administrator account.
Custom fields track, manage, calculate, and report information about results, samples, extracted report information, and scientific applications. Initially, the
UNIFI software ships with custom fields used by qualification, but you can define as many custom fields to suit your company's needs.
The event log stores audit trail messages in the event browser, system audit
trail, and data audit trail view. Each message resides within a category; for example, Acquisition, Data Management, and Security and Administration, and contains a severity level and export requirement.
When users review items, such as reports, for approval or rejection, they must
provide a "meaning". Comments explain why users approve or reject an item, such as a report or qualification results. Previously created meanings and
comments are called "predefined".
If you chose "Configure settings for a non-regulated environment (non GxP)", UNIFI software configures these global policies.

The event log stores audit trail messages in the event browser, system audit trail, and data audit trail view. Each message resides within a category; for example, Acquisition, Data
Management, and Security and Administration, and contains a severity level and export requirement. The tables below list the severity level for each action.
You can change the severity levels if your role include the Manage event properties permission.
The Acquisition table content depends on the instrument drivers installed on your UNIFI system.
