The Name Generator Service supplies unique names to items placed in the model database. Although we recommend installing the Name Generator Service on the same computer as the reference data software, you can install the Name Generator Service on any computer running on the Windows domain.

Refer to Install Smart 3D Client Software for setup instructions.

Hardware Requirements

For optimal performance, the following minimum hardware requirements are recommended:

  • 2.8 GHz Pentium® 4 processor or higher

  • Minimum of 1 GB memory

  • 100 BaseT or higher network interface

  • Minimum of 5 MB hard drive disk space on the drive where Name Generator Service is installed

Prerequisite Software

For optimal performance, the following minimum software requirements are recommended:

  • For large installations: Microsoft Windows Server 2016

    or

    For small installations: Windows 10 64-bit (maximum 20 connections)

  • Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5.2 or later

  • Adobe Acrobat Reader

  • 32-bit or 64-bit Oracle Client if you are using Oracle as your database

  • Distributed Transaction Coordinator service must be enabled. Name Generator installation will fail if this service is disabled.

  • If you are installing Smart 3D Reference Data on a computer running Windows Server 2016, enable the COM+ Network and DTC access, and then add the necessary users to the Distributed COM Users group.

  • If you are using Microsoft SQL Server as your database server, you must Install Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Native Client on the computer running the Name Generator Service.

  • If you are installing the Name Generator Service on the database server computer, you must register the Microsoft SQL Server, see Register the Microsoft SQL Server.

  • If you are installing the Name Generator Service on an Oracle 32-bit Client computer, the computer must be configured to access the Oracle database server through Net Manager.

  • You must install the 32-bit Name Generator if you are using a 32-bit Oracle client.

  • Installing the 32-bit Name Generator with 32-bit Oracle Client on a 64-bit Oracle server causes slower database performance.

  • You can install the 32-bit Name generator on 64-bit workstations with 32-bit Oracle client loaded.

  • The Name Generator Service works when installed on 64-bit Oracle database servers. We recommend that if you are running Oracle 64-bit on a 64-bit server, install the 64-bit Name Generator.

  • After installing the Name Generator Service, the firewall on that computer must be configured to allow DCOM Dynamic Ports. For more information, see Configure the Firewall to Allow DCOM Communication in Windows Server.
