Be sure to have the users in each department review the section of the release notes which applies to them:
The update installation procedure needs to be done on both the server and all workstations using the Intellect software. The server should be updated before the workstations are updated.
Everyone must log out of Intellect while Live Update is run on the server to avoid freezing the update process

Before updating the workstations you MUST 'Restart the Service' after loading the current Live Update onto the Server. Until this step is completed, the new version will not be active. Do NOT 'Restart the Service' on local workstations, only the Server!
'Restart the Service' by doing the following:
1. From the Main Server desktop select Start/Settings/Control Panel
2. Select Administrative Tools
3. Select Services
Open the following:
4. From the Services directory, right-click on OnSTAFF Server. Depending on whether your server was stopped or paused select 'Start' or 'Restart,' respectively.
If your services also shows OnStaff Web Server services, as shown below, it must also be restarted.
When the program has completed the 'Restart' process, you are returned to the Administrative Tools/Services screen. Review the ‘Status’ column:
If 'Status' = 'Error', please call PCS support.
If 'Status' = 'Started', you may close each of the directories until you are back at the desktop.
Note: When updating your system, Intellect verifies that your software maintenance contract is current. If not, a message displays indicating that your contract is not current.
Please refer calls regarding your software maintenance contract to Armineh Albarian at (626) 449-1705, select option 2 or email to accounting@primeclinical.com.
Once the server update is completed and Services has been restarted, you may update your workstation as follows:

Note: If your screen does NOT include the ☐ Update to java 1.6 option shown above,
press [Cancel] and call Prime Clinical Support for assistance.
