Chapter 1 Understanding WebView
WebView Components
The AW database is the single point of access for WebView reporting data and provides views into

The Historical Database Server (HDS) receives and stores historical data and call detail data,
which are forwarded from the Logger in five-minute and half-hour intervals.

An Historical Data Server (HDS) is required if you plan to use WebView historical reports.
This historical data is not accessed directly, but rather through views that exist in the local Admin
Workstation database. To retrieve information for historical reports, WebView connects to the AW

You can configure the size of the HDS and the duration for which data is retained.
For a fresh installation, you first install the distributor AW without checking the Historical Data
Server box. Then create the HDS with the ICMDBA utility, and run setup locally to enable the HDS

machine.
It is possible to set up multiple distributor Admin Workstations and to separate the databases. For
example, in a large-customer deployment, the HDS can be on a separate Admin Workstation. It is also
possible to set up a second (failover) WebView database located on separate Admin Workstation.
In these deployments, the machine where WebView is located must have network connections to the
machines where the databases reside.
The WebView Server
The WebView server is the machine on which the following components reside:
•
Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS)
•
Third-Party software
•
WebView reporting software
At one time, you had to install the WebView server on a distributor AW. This remains a standard
deployment option. However, you now also have the option to set up one or more ‘standalone’ WebView
servers on machine(s) separate from, on the same domain as, and pointing to, the primary distributor
