DECnet-Plus for OpenVMS
Installation and Basic Configuration


Previous | Contents

For example, if the wrong version of DECnet-Plus is installed, the Software Integrator prompts you to install the required version.

Similarly, if the correct version of OpenVMS is installed and you elect not to use the default values when installing X.25, the Software Integrator warns you that you will need to use the RECONFIGURE option if you want to change the version of OpenVMS to be used.

A.5 Determining Installation Progress

As an installation procedure progresses, the system displays a percentage to indicate how much of the installation has been completed. For example:

Percent Done: 0%...10%...20%...30%...40%...50%...80%...90%...100% 
 
The following product has been installed: 
DEC AXPVMS DECNET_OSI V7.1 

Or, as another example:

Percent Done: 0%...10%...20%...30%...40%...50%...80%...90%...100% 
 
The following product has been installed: 
DEC VAXVMS DECNET_OSI V7.1 

If you started the installation using the /LOG qualifier, the system displays details of the installation.

A.6 Possible Installation Errors

If the installation procedure fails for any reason, an error message appears. For example, if the installation of X.25 fails, the following message appears:

%POLYCENTER Software Installation UtilityINSTAL-E-INSFAIL, The 
... installation of X.25 for OpenVMS Alpha Version 1.0 has failed. 

An error can occur during the installation if one or more of the following conditions exist:

If the installation fails, you must restart the installation procedure.

A.7 Reporting Problems

If you encounter a problem while using DECnet-Plus for OpenVMS or X.25 for OpenVMS Alpha, report it to Digital. Depending on the nature of the problem and the type of support you have, you can take one of the following actions:

Review the Software Product Description (SPD) and Warranty Addendum for an explanation of warranty. If you encounter a problem during the warranty period, report the problem as previously indicated.


Appendix B
Installing DECnet-Plus for OpenVMS from an InfoServer

B.1 Steps to Installing the Software from an InfoServer

The following steps show you how to access the distribution kit via an InfoServer and install the software on your system.


Note

The InfoServer does not use DECnet-Plus software to install software kits over the network.

  1. Verify that the network hardware is installed and working properly.
  2. Log into the system manager account on your system.
  3. Set your system's SCSNODE SYSGEN parameter to a non-blank value.

    Note

    The InfoServer requires that the SCSNODE parameter be set to a non-blank value even if your system is running in a non-clustered environment.

  4. Check with the InfoServer manager to verify that the DECnet-Plus for OpenVMS distribution kit is available. If necessary, the InfoServer manager can refer to the OpenVMS Layered Products Compact Disc User's Guide that came with the compact disc distribution kit for specific details about the disc that contains the distribution kit.
  5. Get the distribution kit service name from the InfoServer manager. For example, CDBIN is used in the commands in this appendix as a kit service name.
  6. Enter the following command to start the InfoServer client software on your system:
    $ @sys$startup:ess$startup disk tape
    
  7. Assuming a service name of CDBIN, enter the following command to bind the service containing the distribution kit.
    $ mcr ess$ladcp bind cdbin 
    
  8. Assuming a service name of CDBIN, enter the following command to mount the kit device (optional):
    $ mount/override=identification dad$cdbin 
    

B.2 Install Commands

To install DECnet-Plus from the CDBIN service, for example, you would enter:

$ product install decnet_osi /source=dad$cdbin:[dnvosi071.kit]    


Appendix C
