PC Booking System

Our center at Central Library is very different with our center at YIH. The most notable different is the presence of PC Booking System. Student have to book a computer first before they can use it. They can book a computer using a PC provided near the supervisor desk.

The first thing to do when a PC in CL broke down is to block it in the PC Booking System.

Blocking a computer through PC Booking System

There is a way for us to block a particular computer. If a computer is having a problem, we can block the computer to prevent user to book that computer. To do that, go to the PC Booking System, or alternatively, you can do this on your computer also by going to http://172.16.15.79/nusweb/.

Enter the admin panel of the PC Booking System software. To do that, enter commit as the username, and choose NUSEXT as the domain. Click Log In. You will not be logged in directly, but you will asked for password instead, since this is the admin panel.

Enter the password and then click Log In. After that, click the Admin button located on the top right, near the Log Out button. After that, click CBSClient button. You will see a list of computers

Figure 1 : This is what you should see after clicking the Admin button.

Find the computer you would like to modify, and click the pencil logo on the appropriate row. Choose the mode to either Available or Maintenance. After that, click the Save button on the top of the table to save the pending change.
