Drat...ninja'd again... :)

But I like Tim's enhancement of having to only run the commit on one box 
and have it propagate to other stations automatically.

Re: [foxboro] Software Install failure






Russ,

Here's what I want: to be able to commit a Windows box (or Unix box, I 
guess, although we don't have many of those left) without having to use 
ANY software media at all.  No diskette, no USB drive, nothing.  Just a 
file (or files) that I transfer from the SysDef machine to my Mesh machine 
over a network.  Then, I run a program (without re-booting would be nice, 
but hey, this IS Windows we're talking about), and the commit process 
happens and it's done.

Even better - the process for updating the system files is integrated into 
the architecture, and when I make a change to the system, it gets 
broadcast to all stations on the Mesh automatically.

This way, when we have to change the Master Time Keeper to load a GPS 
time-synch system, for example, your service guys don't have to schlep a 
version 8.x CD and a floppy disk all over the refinery and load it 30 
times, with everybody crossing their fingers that all 30 installations 
work.

Tim
