ARIES R2003.11
Introduction
Welcome to ARIES 2003.11. This document contains important information and last
minute changes related to ARIES 2003.11 not documented elsewhere. ARIES 2003.11
represents the ARIES component of The Engineers Desktop. The Engineers Desktop
introduces Landmarks solution for integrating our Drilling, Production and Economics
suite of applications.
Engineers Desktop integrates functions across the E&P life cycle, bringing together
drilling and production data, as well as offering the analytical tools to manage projects in
one system.
This integration of data and applications into the Engineers Desktop enables cross
domain workflows tightly linked to the earth model through visualization technology.
Integrating these technologies ultimately offers a marked increase in your ability to
maximize the productivity of new and existing fields. Through this integrated approach,
home office personnel can plan and control their fields with lower risk and greater
flexibility.
Landmark built the Engineers Desktop around a single database called EDM. After
entering the data just once, you can access and manipulate it from all of the different
applications offered in this suite.
For more information on The Engineers Desktop, please refer to the Engineers Desktop
Release 2003.11 Release Notes.

Installation
The Engineers Desktop software is delivered on multiple CD-ROMs: Volumes 5, 6, 7 and
15. You can install all of the Engineers Desktop applications using the Common Installer.
For complete information on mounting the CD-ROMs and installing from CD-ROMs,
please refer to the EDT_Installation_Guide.pdf located on CD Volume 5 in the
\Products\EDT\Docs folder.

ARIES R2003.11
Licensing
For Engineers Desktop Release2003.11, all PC and UNIX products including the
Engineers Desktop applications support use of FLEXlm licensing, which is the only
licensing mechanism supported by Landmark. FLEXlm licensing has been supported with
past releases, so many clients will already be using this licensing mechanism. FLEXlm
licensing is available for networked application and standalone application use. FLEXlm
standalone licensing may be used in conjunction with a network card or through a FLEXlm
dongle (bitlock) where no PC network identification is possible.
Previous versions of the Drilling applications and the Production & Economics
applications supported use of a proprietary Landmark licensing mechanism called
Netsecure for networks. Additionally, Sentinel bitlocks attached to a PCs parallel port
could be used for licensing of standalone installs, Crypkey licensing was also supported
for standalone installs. Use of Netsecure, Sentinel bitlocks and Crypkey has been
discontinued by Landmark and is not supported for use with Release2003 products.
The EDM 2003.11 applications require that a new EDM license feature be available from
the customer's licensing server in order for the Engineer's Desktop applications to run.
The EDM license is handled as a Group Checkout for each application user on a particular
PC. Only one EDM license is checked out for all Engineer's Desktop applications being
run by a user on a single machine. Therefore, clients will need to acquire a set of EDM
licenses based on their expected concurrent user level. Please contact your local
Landmark representative for EDM licensing.
Due to changes with Landmark's licensing mechanism, customers who have previously
installed and run EDM 2003.5 only need to add EDM licenses as stated above in order to
run R2003.11 applications. However, clients who have not previously installed and used
EDM 2003.5 applications (e.g., are upgrading from W2000 versions of the Engineering
applications direct to R2003.11) must re-license their products as well as add EDM
licenses by contacting their local Landmark representative. Refer to the LAM 2003.0Windows Release Notes (LAMReleaseNotes.pdf), located in the
\Products\EDT\Install\LAM folder on CD 5, for details.
IMPORTANT! If you have a version of LAM server older than 7.2e (Release 2003.0 and later), you
must uninstall it before installing the LAM 2003 server.
Failure to uninstall all previous versions of LAM Server before installing LAM Server 2003 will result in
a duplicate FLEXlm service that replicates itself until it crashes Windows.
The procedures for uninstalling LAM server are detailed in the section LAM Server - Uninstallation
Notes in the LAM 2003.0Windows Release Notes (LAMReleaseNotes.pdf), located in the
Products\EDT\Install\LAM folder on CD 6. Products that were licensed under the older server will still
work with the new LAM server.

ARIES R2003.11
IMPORTANT! If you are using a FLEXlm dongle (bitlock), you must install FLEXlm 7.2i on the
standalone or client machine.
To install FLEXlm 7.2i for bitlocks (either parallel or USB):
1. Go to your installed \LAM\bin folder, and run flexid.exe to install the bitlock drivers.
2. To request a bitlock license, run \LAM\bin\lmtools.exe. Select System Settings tab; provide the
value you see in the FLEXID9 field.

Known Problems
Currently, the ARIES Transporter adds a _log suffix to the LDF file name. To solve
this problem, simply change the name of the log file (LDF) to match that of the data file
(MDF). For example, you would rename SampleEDM_log.ldf as SampleEDM.ldf, to
match SampleEDM.mdf.
During EDM Migration, ARIES Loses References to Property Data Using Old
Databases
When using an older ARIES database in which the PROJLIST table has not been
updated for old Projects, you may receive the No Master Record Found error. This
error results from the INTKEY and PROPNUM being different from those in the original
database. To prevent this error, update any projects in which the INTKEY and
PROPNUM do not match by using the Upgrade.exe tool and checking the Update
ProjectList Table option when the upgrading the original database prior to migration.

3. Click the Security tab, and in the Group or user names section, select the name
of the restricted user.
4. In the Permissions for Users section, click a check mark into the Full Control
check box under the Allow option and then click the OK button.
5. Log off as a Local Administrator, log back in as a Restricted User and launch
ARIES.
The ARIES Transporter will not create a new MSDE Database unless the user
has trusted connection rights and the MSDE Server Role of Database Creator
When the Administrator of a machine installs MSDE, other users do not automatically
have the ability to access or create MSDE databases. Only the Administrator receives
these rights by default, and the Administrator must in turn grant the appropriate rights
to each user who would like to access and run ARIES.
During EDM Migration, the Run Query for Missing Columns fails on a Newly
Installed Database.
Some databases may have some column names no longer supported in the new data
model. To correct this problem, go into DBS Setup and adjust the ShowID for valid
columns.
