LINK+ Repository: System Administration

System Administration

New PTYPEs and ITYPEs on Your Local System (Sierra) ⬇️

If you create any new patron or item types in your local system, please report them to the LINK+ Administrator so that they can be mapped centrally. Otherwise, your new patron or item type may not behave as intended.

Member Location Codes (Sierra) ⬇️

If your Branches table is missing a member's LINK+ location code, virtual items from that member will not check out properly. You should periodically check your Branches table against the most recent list of LINK+ member library codes to make sure all are included. You can find this list on the repository.

Scheduling IP Changes on Your Local System (Sierra) ⬇️

If you plan to change the IP address of your local server, you should open a ticket with Innovative's Support Desk at least two weeks in advance. You should also notify the LINK+ Administrator. Innovative staff must make adjustments on both the local Innovative server and the LINK+ Central server in order for the INN-Reach software (INN-Reach patron requesting, local record queuing to Central, and INN-Reach circulation) to continue to work after the IP change.
