Installing and Configuring
Layered Products (New Installations, Some Upgrades)
The OpenVMS operating system kit includes several layered
products. These include the system-integrated product (SIP) kits
for the following products that can be installed as part of the
OpenVMS operating system installation:
Availability Manager (base) for OpenVMS (required)
CDSA for OpenVMS (required)
Kerberos for OpenVMS (required)
Performance Data Collector
base software, TDC_RT (required)
DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS
DECnet-Plus for OpenVMS
DECnet Phase IV for OpenVMS
TCP/IP Services for OpenVMS
Other layered products--such as the Advanced Server
for OpenVMS, programming languages, database software, and accounting
software--are not provided with the operating system media.
If these or any of the layered products included with the operating
system media were not installed during the installation (or upgrade),
you can install them separately by using option 3 of the main menu
of the OpenVMS operating system media. Alternatively, you can install
these products using the procedure described in
Alternative Procedure.
In addition to the SIPs, the OpenVMS I64 OE DVD includes kits
for various products that are part of the OpenVMS OEs. HP does
not support installing these OE product kits while booted from the
OE DVD. To install these OE products, you must use the procedure
described in
Alternative Procedure.
To use menu option 3, the target system must have
the identical version of the OpenVMS operating system as the operating
system media. If you need to install layered products on a target
system that has a different version of the operating system, use
the alternative procedure.
To use menu option 3 of the operating system menu, follow
these steps:
Before
you install any layered products, be sure you back up the system
disk.
If you are not already booted from the operating
system media, shut down the system and boot the operating system
media. For instructions on how to shut down the system, refer to
Halt and Shutdown Procedures.
To view a list of products that can be installed,
choose option 2 from the menu. If the layered product that you
want to install is not listed in the display, install the product
by using the alternative procedure described in
Alternative Procedure, or refer to the documentation
you received with the layered product. Note that HP does not support
VMSINSTAL, PRODUCT INSTALL, or other PRODUCT commands from the DCL
option on the DVD operating system menu.
After the installation completes, shut down the
system by selecting option 8 from the menu. When you boot the target
system, the layered products you installed will be present.
For additional information about installing layered products,
refer to the HP OpenVMS System Manager's Manual
.
Alternative Procedure Use this alternative procedure to install the following products:
Layered products on a target
system that has a different operating system version than that of
the operating system media (DVD).
Layered products that require
VMSINSTAL (indicated in the directories by save-set file names with
file types of .A, .B, and so on)
OpenVMS I64 OE products
SIP kits (as an alternative
to using menu option 3 of the operating system menu on the media)
Products on the Layered Products,
Freeware, System Tools, and e-Business Integration and Infrastructure
CDs
For a list of layered products you can install, refer to the Software
Product Descriptions included with your operating system kit. Note
that some products require a license key (PAK) from HP.
Follow these steps:
Before
you install all your layered products, be sure you back up the system
disk. In addition, ensure that a license has been loaded for the
software. Note also that most layered products require changes
to SYSGEN parameters or AUTHORIZE values, and to system files such
as SYLOGICALS.COM, SYLOGIN.COM, and SYSTARTUP_VMS.COM. For more
information, refer to the following:
Installation
guides for these layered products
HP OpenVMS System Manager's Manual, Volume 1: Essentials
After your target system disk runs AUTOGEN and boots,
mount the OpenVMS operating system DVD. For example, if the DVD
device is DKA400, use the following command:
$ MOUNT/OVERRIDE=IDENTIFICATION DKA400
Locate the directories and files containing the
available layered products. For example, if the DVD device name
is DKA400:, enter the following command:
$ DIRECTORY /NOHEAD/NOTRAIL DKA400:[*.KIT]
You can use the PRODUCT FIND command to locate kits by using
the POLYCENTER Software Installation utility. For example:
$ PRODUCT FIND * /SOURCE=DKA400:[*.KIT]
To install layered products that require VMSINSTAL
(indicated in the directories by save-set file names with file types
of .A, .B, and so on), enter the @SYS$UPDATE:VMSINSTAL command and
then specify the DVD device name and directory at the prompt. For
example:
$ @SYS$UPDATE:VMSINSTAL * Where will the distribution volumes be mounted:DKA400:[DIAA032.KIT]
To install layered products that require the POLYCENTER Software
Installation utility (indicated in the directories by file names
with file types of .PCSI or .PCSI$COMPRESSED), use the PRODUCT INSTALL command
to specify the DVD device name and directory. Following is an example
of the PRODUCT INSTALL command on an I64 system:
HP OpenVMS Version 8.2-1 for Integrity Servers...
