Student Backup Server

OVERVIEW:
Customer:
Backup server is a tool developed at MSIT; its target user group consists of anyone who wants to share their information and wants others to access even after they leave the organization.

Purpose:
This software mainly concentrates on storing the data and information of the students, who are going to be graduated, which is useful to the organization as well as other students. This helps current students to access and download the useful information they need.

Scope:
The users or students who are from the organization can access or download the data, but only the users who have uploaded the information can only modify the information. This software can be run on a laptop or desktop computing system having LAN connection to store or access the data of the students.

General Requirements
System in context
Student Backup server is a standalone server where all the legitimate users could connect, access and also downloads the information present. Some of the data present in the server includes content like videos, reading materials, illustrations and examples etc. The current students and the passed out students of the organization can access the data. Only the owner of the data can modify or delete his data. A separate user space is made available to the user and any type of data can be uploaded in to the server, irrespective of the size of the data. A super user is the one who creates the accounts and manages them User characteristics The users are typical computer users. The users are familiar with many applications. The users are intolerant of defective, slow, or hard-to-use applications

Constraints The entire system works on the connection oriented protocol.

System Wide Requirements (Received)

Actors The system interacts with two kinds of users, an administrator and a normal student user. The student user doesn't have complete functionalities of the system. They can only update and modify their own data and were not given permissions to modify or delete others data but can only download them. Administrator has all the privileges to the functions of the system. Events Student backup server is a tool which assists the students to access the data they need at any point of time. The most critical events are 1) uploading, downloading, searches and deleting the data into the server by the student user. 2) Creating deleting and modifying the user accounts by administrator 3) Managing the data of a user by the administrator. 4) Maintains the configuration file of the student backup server.

Table 1 provides the set of the user and administrator visible events which define the required functionality. Rules 1. The system will process exceptions in a consistent fashion a. If the exception is a user error that can be corrected: The system displays an error message with an explanation of the mistake. The system allows the user to correct the mistake without starting over Page 5

Ziksartin

Student Backup Server b. If the exception is a rule violation that cannot be corrected: The system displays an informational message explaining the constraint to the user

2. When the user enters the wrong user Id or the wrong password then the system should prompt a warning message and the user must be given another chance of re-entering the user id or the password. 3. Any changes made in the system documents must be reflected in the student backup server graphical interface. 4. When the user is uploading a file using the student backup server, when an error occurs then the system must show a warning message about the error in the upload. 5. When the user uploads a file, if the upload is done completely then the system should show a successful message of the upload and it should be reflected in the graphical user interface. 6. When a user is deleting a file in the student backup server, if the operation is done successfully then it should show the successful message about the deletion and should reflect in the graphical interface. If the file deletion cannot be done then it should prompt the user with a message and the reason for the failure. 7. When the user enters a search key then the system shows the account names of all the users having the search results. The user can access the files through this account details. 8. When a user is browsing the files of the other user then the delete button would be in the disable state which represents that the user cannot delete the files of the other users. 9. When the administrator enters a wrong password then the character interface must prompt the user and give another chance to enter the password. 10.When the administrator adds/deletes/modifies the users, the success or the failure of the operation should be prompted to the administrator using the character interface.

Technical Requirements
Operational environment Student backup server should be able to run on the typical personal computers and laptops using modern operating system. Development environment Developers must have access to net beans 6.7.1 or later version of IDE and support libraries with their corresponding APIs Ziksartin Page 12

Student Backup Server Developers must have access to the GUI development tools as time to implement the user interface by hand would be excessive and brings no additional value to the experience.
