IMPORTANT NEW PROCEDURES

Context

Adobe and the browser manufacturers have agreed to terminate the Flash technology and derived products by the end of the year 2020.
Some parts of the NOP where historically developed to work with Flash, and have gradually been replaced by more recent technologies.

The WIND application (Web Interface to NOP Data) is such a flash-based legacy application that will still be used in Operations beyond the end of the year 2020.

Solutions

The replacement by another technology (GWT) is ongoing - and will take some time to be fully operational.

Until then, the NOP Data will be maintained in two parallel modes, depending the nature of the concerned WIND Entity.

New GWT WIND

A set of Entity types do already benefit from the new platform, namely:

Application PC
Link List PC

Specific instructions on accessing and using the new application are available here.

Legacy FLASH WIND on VM (Virtual Machine)

All other WIND Entities, including those in relation with global features (such as GLOBAL_DC) are maintained through a legacy Flash environment running the WIND application on a virtual computer, using the Chromium browser.

This temporary workaround allows you to continue using WIND in the historical way,

Specific instructions on accessing, configuring and using the WIND on VM application are available here.
