The Compaq COBOL installation procedure creates some directories and loads files into subordinate directories, as listed in
/usr/lib/cmplrs/cobol/filelist |
If the /usr/lib/cmplrs directory node in the previous paths does not exist, the installation procedure creates it. If the /usr/lib/cmplrs node does exist, the installation procedure uses it.
If you find that there is insufficient disk space for the Compaq COBOL subsets and you know that you have additional space on alternative disks or disk partitions for your system, perform the following steps before installing Compaq COBOL:
Someone from your site must perform at least one Compaq COBOL installation from the distribution medium. Your site system manager can then decide whether or not to make a Compaq COBOL distribution kit available on line so that subsequent installations of Compaq COBOL can use the Remote Installation Service (RIS). For information on extracting Compaq COBOL subsets to a RIS distribution area, see the Guide to Sharing Software on a Local Area Network.
If you expect to use Compaq COBOL subsets from the RIS area of a remote system for installation on your local system, first check with your site system manager to ensure that:
If Compaq COBOL subsets are available to you on a RIS server system, you must know the name of that system.
For more information on installing Compaq COBOL from a RIS distribution
area, see Section 2.2.
1.6 Backing Up Your System Disk
Compaq recommends that you back up your system disk before installing
any software. For information about backing up your system disk, see
the operating system documentation.
1.7 Stopping the Installation
To stop the installation procedure at any time, press Ctrl/C. You must then interactively delete files created up to this point. The directories and files created during the Compaq COBOL installation are listed in the following file:
/usr/lib/cmplrs/cobol/filelist |
Before you start the installation, read Chapter 1. You can install
Compaq COBOL from a server area. If you encounter any failures during
installation, see Appendix C.
2.1 Using CD-ROM Consolidated Distribution Media
This procedure loads Compaq COBOL files onto a disk belonging to the system where you perform the installation. When Compaq COBOL is run, its executable images are mapped into memory on your system.
Follow these steps to install Compaq COBOL from CD-ROM media:
# cd / |
# mount -dr /dev/disk/cdrom0c /cdrom |
# setld -l /cdrom/AXP/dca280/bin |
The installation procedure now displays the names of Compaq COBOL subsets and asks you to specify the subsets that you want to load.
See Section 2.3 to continue the installation.
2.2 Using an RIS Distribution Area
If you are installing Compaq COBOL subsets that reside in an /etc/ris RIS distribution area on a remote system, follow these steps:
# cd / |
# setld -l orion: |
Remote Installation Services now displays a menu that lists all the software subsets available to you and the software asks you to specify the subsets that you want to load.
See Section 2.3 to continue the installation.
2.3 Responding to Installation Procedure Prompts
This section explains the installation procedure prompts and displays.
2.3.1 Selecting Subsets
You must specify which Compaq COBOL subsets you want to load.
If you are installing from a RIS distribution area, the number of subsets can vary depending on what products are available in the RIS area and how many subsets they have. |
The following example shows a display where all Compaq COBOL subsets are being loaded from CD-ROM:
*** Enter Subset Selections *** The subsets listed below are optional: There may be more optional subsets than can be presented on a single screen. If this is the case, you can choose subsets screen by screen or all at once on the last screen. All of the choices you make will be collected for your confirmation before any subsets are installed. 1) Compaq COBOL RTL V2.8 for Tru64 UNIX 2) Compaq COBOL V2.8 Man Pages 3) Compaq COBOL V2.8 Release Notes 4) Compaq COBOL V2.8 for Tru64 UNIX 5) Compaq Decimal RTL V2.8 for Tru64 UNIX Or you may choose one of the following options: 6) ALL of the above 7) CANCEL selections and redisplay menus 8) EXIT without installing any subsets Enter your choices or press RETURN to redisplay menus. Choices (for example, 1 2 4-6): 6 |
If you have not already read the Release Notes, it is recommended that you enter 3 for installation of the Release Notes subset only. Then read them before installing the other subsets. If you do a full product installation, the Release Notes will be installed in:
/usr/lib/cmplrs/cobol/relnotes |
If you choose to install the Release Notes subset only, the Release Notes will be installed in:
/usr/lib/cmplrs/cobol_028/relnotes |
If you specify more than one number at the prompt, separate each number with a space, not a comma.
Next, the script lets you verify your choice. For example, if you enter 6 in response to the previous prompt, you will see the following display:
You are installing the following optional subsets: Compaq COBOL RTL V2.8 for Tru64 UNIX Compaq COBOL V2.8 Man Pages Compaq COBOL V2.8 Release Notes Compaq COBOL V2.8 for Tru64 UNIX Compaq Decimal RTL V2.8 for Tru64 UNIX Is this correct? (y/n): y |
If the displayed subsets are not the ones you intended to choose, enter n . In this case, the subset selection menu is again displayed and you can correct your choice of optional subsets.
If the displayed subsets are the ones you want to load, enter
y
.
2.3.2 Monitoring Displays During the Subset Loading Process
The installation procedure loads and verifies the selected Compaq COBOL subsets. The procedure should complete in approximately two minutes.
When you see the Verifying message during the subset installation, the installation procedure is checking to see that the files are copied correctly; it is not an Installation Verification Procedure (IVP) message.
During the installation, if you get errors from the setld utility, see the Diagnostics section of the setld (8) reference page for an explanation of the errors and the appropriate actions to take.
This chapter explains what you need to do after the installation to
make Compaq COBOL ready for use and how to delete old COBOL subsets.
3.1 Running the Installation Verification Procedure
After you install Compaq COBOL, you can run the Installation Verification Procedure (IVP) independently to verify that the software is available on your system. You might also want to run the IVP after a system failure, to be sure that users can access Compaq COBOL.
The Compaq COBOL IVP verifies the installation by means of the fverify command with the -y option (see the fverify(8) reference page).
The IVP performs various functions for the following files:
To run the IVP after an installation, enter the following command:
# setld -v subsetname |
In this command, subsetname can be any Compaq COBOL subset. For a sample Compaq COBOL IVP, see Section A.2.
If the verification process fails, look in the
/var/adm/smlogs/fverify.log
file for information to help diagnose the problem.
3.2 Deleting a Version of Compaq COBOL from Your System
If you must remove a version of Compaq COBOL from your system, delete each subset that you previously installed.
To delete subsets:
# cd / |
# setld -i | egrep "Compaq COBOL|Compaq Decimal" |
# setld -d DCARTL270 O2ABASE270 |
The following sections show the result of a sample installation of Compaq COBOL. Depending on which layered products you have on your system, you might see additional messages and questions when you perform your installation.
The sample listings are as follows:
Example A-1 is a log file of a sample installation of Compaq COBOL Version 2.8.
