There was a work around using a function, that was implemented in STAR, to support Citrix access.
I.E. the Citrix board has one IP but can support many STAR sessions.
We found it when setting up remote physisn offices with dial-up access BUT the individual that might remember how it works is out of the office for a week.
I personnaly use multiple PCs because I have found it to be the most reliable methodology.

>>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 5/7/2005 10:25:01 AM >>> Henry, This is an HIS specific question which is kind of outside my �pay grade,� but I�ve heard that STAR has issues like this particularly in supporting multi-session printers. One possible simple solution that might work is to use virtual machines on the same PC. If STAR believes that these machines have separate IP addresses then it may allow multiple sessions. It�s certainly worth a try to avoid having to purchase a number of separate PC�s. Do any STAR users out there have anything to add? Rich McNeil 866 653 5105 www.bostonworkstation.com From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] I have a problem and I'm wondering if anyone out there has faced this, and if so, what your response was. We run a number of BWS scripts against our McKesson STAR system. Now, as far as I have been able to determine, STAR will not allow multiple connections to the same session to run concurrently - a single session ties up the port for that IP (and they've recently implemented an enhancement that prevents using dynamic ports). This means that we're running into a problem with not having enough time in each day to run all of the scripts that we want to run (some of these take 3-6 hours each). Clearly we can get more machines to run these on, but that means spending money, both for the PCs and for the runtime licenses of the software. I was wondering if someone had come upon another way to handle this. Perhaps some way to virtualize the STAR sessions, or run in multiple "spaces" or something. I don't know, because my expertise doesn't run to that side of things, but I thought I'd throw it out there and see what comes back. |
