(Refer to Section 1.1 for information about registering a License Product Authorization Key [PAK].) Use the POLYCENTER Software Installation utility or the VMSINSTAL procedure to install your DECwindows Motif software according to the operating system information that follows. ___________________________________________________________ Operating_System___________Installation_Method_____________ OpenVMS Alpha Version 6.2 POLYCENTER Software Installation (or higher) utility OpenVMS VAX Version 6.2 (or higher) VMS_Version_5.5-2__________VMSINSTAL_procedure_____________ 1.4 Required Operating System Software The Compaq DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS software requires one of the following operating systems: o OpenVMS Alpha Version 6.2, 7.1-2, 7.2-1, or 7.3 o OpenVMS VAX Version 6.2, 7.1, 7.2, or 7.3 o VMS Version 5.5-2 If your system is not running one of these versions before you attempt to install Compaq DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS, the installation fails. 1-3 Preparing to Install the Software 1.4 Required Operating System Software A minimum of 16 MB of memory is required for OpenVMS VAX systems; 32 MB of memory is highly recommended. A minimum of 64 MB of memory is required for OpenVMS Alpha systems; at least 128 MB of memory is highly recommended. The OpenVMS operating system provides two subsets of components to support Compaq DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS. To use Compaq DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS software, your system should be running a version of the OpenVMS system that includes the following components: o DECwindows Motif transports and base system support This support is required to install Compaq DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS and to run Compaq DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS applications. During the installation of OpenVMS, you are prompted to specify whether you want to install this option. To determine whether this option was installed during the installation of OpenVMS, enter the following command: $ DIR SYS$LIBRARY:DECW$TRANSPORT_COMMON.EXE See Section 5.3 for information on adding DECwindows base support files after OpenVMS has been installed. o DECwindows X11 display server for OpenVMS, fonts, and device drivers, which are necessary to display Compaq DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS applications or any other X11 applications on your Alpha or VAX system During the installation of OpenVMS, you are prompted to specify whether you want to install this option. To determine whether this option was installed during the installation of OpenVMS, enter the following command: $ DIR SYS$SYSTEM:DECW$SERVER_MAIN.EXE If the DECW$SERVER_MAIN.EXE file is not on your system, you cannot display Compaq DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS applications on your Alpha or VAX system. However, you can run Compaq DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS applications that display on a DECwindows X11 display server that runs on another system. The Compaq DECwindows Motif for 1-4 Preparing to Install the Software 1.4 Required Operating System Software OpenVMS installation procedure asks whether you want to continue the installation without workstation support. See Section 5.3 for information on adding DECwindows device support files and 75- or 100-dpi font files after OpenVMS has been installed. ________________________ Note ________________________ See the release notes and cover letter for the version of the OpenVMS operating system that you are running for more information about the DECwindows X11 display server. ______________________________________________________ 1-5 Preparing to Install the Software 1.5 Required ECO for POLYCENTER Software Installation Utility 1.5 Required ECO for POLYCENTER Software Installation Utility If you are installing the Compaq DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS software on an OpenVMS Version 6.2 or 7.1 system, you must first install an ECO to the POLYCENTER Software Installation (PCSI) utility. See the Guide to the Compaq DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS CD-ROM for details about this ECO. OpenVMS Versions 7.2 and higher include this functionality in the operating system; therefore, you need not apply this ECO if you are running OpenVMS Version 7.2 or higher. The following example shows a PCSI ECO installation on an OpenVMS Alpha Version 7.1 system (installations on other OpenVMS versions differ slightly): $ PRODUCT INSTALL VMS62TO71U2_PCSI The following product has been selected: DEC AXPVMS VMS62TO71U2_PCSI V1.0 Patch (maintenance update) Do you want to continue? [YES] Configuration phase starting ... You will be asked to choose options, if any, for each selected product and for any products that may be installed to satisfy software dependency requirements. DEC AXPVMS VMS62TO71U2_PCSI V1.0 * This product does not have any configuration options. Execution phase starting ... The following product will be installed to destination: DEC AXPVMS VMS62TO71U2_PCSI V1.0 DISK$1:[VMS$COMMON.] Portion done: 0% ...10% ...40% ...70% ...80% ...90% ...100% The following product has been installed: DEC AXPVMS VMS62TO71U2_PCSI V1.0 Patch (maintenance update) 1-6 Preparing to Install the Software 1.5 Required ECO for POLYCENTER Software Installation Utility 1.5.1 Upgrade Problem After Installing Required PCSI ECO After installing the required POLYCENTER Software Installation utility ECO, your system will use the new features provided by this version of the PCSI utility. If a layered product is installed that makes use of this new functionality, then it may not be possible to revert back to an older version of the utility. The restriction occurs because there may be records in the software product database that the older version of the utility will not be able to interpret. This scenario occurs if you install the PCSI ECO, then install DECwindows Motif, and later install certain upgrades to the OpenVMS operating system. The steps below describe the situations when this will occur: 1. Install the PCSI ECO kit onto OpenVMS Version 6.2, 6.2- 1H1, 6.2-1H2, 6.2-1H3, 7.1, 7.1-1H1, or 7.1-1H2. 2. Install DECwindows Motif Version 1.2-6. 3. Upgrade to (or reinstall) OpenVMS Version 6.2, 6.2-1H1, 6.2-1H2, 6.2-1H3, 7.1, 7.1-1H1, or 7.1-1H2. Upgrading to any of the OpenVMS versions listed in item 3 may fail (or other PRODUCT command operations on the product database may fail) with one of the following errors: %SYSTEM-F-ACCVIO, access violation, ... %PCSI-E-UNSDOCENC, unsupported product document encoding version To prevent these failures after installing the PCSI ECO and DECwindows Motif, perform the following steps: 1. Remove DECwindows Motif using the following command: $ PRODUCT REMOVE DWMOTIF 2. Upgrade to (or reinstall) OpenVMS Version 6.2, 6.2-1H1, 6.2-1H2, 6.2-1H3, 7.1, 7.1-1H1, or 7.1-1H2. 3. Reinstall the PCSI ECO. 4. Reinstall DECwindows Motif. 1-7 Preparing to Install the Software 1.5 Required ECO for POLYCENTER Software Installation Utility This workaround is not needed if you upgrading to OpenVMS Alpha Version 7.2-1 or higher, or if you are upgrading to OpenVMS VAX Version 7.2 or higher. These versions (and all later versions) already include the new functionality added by the PCSI ECO. 1.6 OSF/Motif Release 1.1.3 and XUI Programming Support The X Window and OSF/Motif libraries that are provided with Compaq DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS software are incompatible with those libraries provided with versions of DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS prior to Version 1.2. Run- time compatibility is preserved, but the earlier OSF/Motif Release 1.1.3 and XUI programming environments are not compatible with the later OSF/MOTIF Release 1.2 programming environment. Programming in the XUI and OSF/Motif Release 1.1.3 environments that was provided in previous versions of DECwindows Motif is no longer supported in the Compaq DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS product. However, the installation procedure gives you the option of saving the XUI and OSF/Motif Release 1.1.3 programming files that already exist on your system. If you choose to save these programming files, they are moved to subdirectories where you can access them for programming. Specifically, the installation creates a subdirectory called [.DECW$113] in each of the directories listed in Table 1-1 and moves the previous files into the new [.DECW$113] subdirectory. Table 1-1 Directories for Previous XUI or OSF/Motif Programming __________Environments___________________________________________ Directory_____Contents____New_Location___________________________ DECW$INCLUDE C header SYS$SYSROOT:[DECW$INCLUDE.DECW$113] files SYS$SYSTEM UIL SYS$SYSROOT:[SYSEXE.DECW$113] compiler (continued on next page) 1-8 Preparing to Install the Software 1.6 OSF/Motif Release 1.1.3 and XUI Programming Support Table 1-1 (Cont.)

To copy your customized file to another directory, create the directory and define a global symbol in the file DECW$PRIVATE_APPS_SETUP.COM. To create a Bookreader directory called SYS$COMMON:[DECW$BOOK_LOCAL], perform the following steps: 1. Create the directory and assign world read access as follows: $ CREATE/DIRECTORY/PROTECTION=WORLD:R - _$ SYS$COMMON:[DECW$BOOK_LOCAL] 1-9 Preparing to Install the Software 1.7 Saving Customized Bookreader Files 2. Copy the LIBRARY.DECW$BOOKSHELF file to the new directory as follows: $ COPY SYS$SYSROOT:[DECW$BOOK]LIBRARY.DECW$BOOKSHELF - _$ SYS$COMMON:[DECW$BOOK_LOCAL]*/LOG 3. If the SYS$MANAGER directory does not contain the DECW$PRIVATE_APPS_SETUP.COM command file, copy the template file to a command file as follows: $ COPY SYS$MANAGER:DECW$PRIVATE_APPS_SETUP.TEMPLATE - _$ SYS$MANAGER:DECW$PRIVATE_APPS_SETUP.COM/LOG 4. Edit the DECW$PRIVATE_APPS_SETUP.COM file and define the global symbol DECW$BOOK to point to your Bookreader directory by adding the following line to the file: $ DECW$BOOK == "SYS$COMMON:[DECW$BOOK_LOCAL]" 5. Restart DECwindows Motif using the following command if you performed step 4 after installing the product and after DECwindows had been started (for example, after a reboot): $ @SYS$MANAGER:DECW$STARTUP RESTART For more information about customizing your DECwindows Motif environment, see Managing DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS Systems. 1.8 Installation Procedure Requirements This section discusses the requirements for installing the Compaq DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS software using PCSI and the VMSINSTAL installation procedure. The installation procedure checks the following: o Whether you are logged in to an appropriately privileged account (VMSINSTAL installations only) o Whether any other users are logged in to the system o Whether you have the minimum required system account quotas and limits o Whether you have the minimum required disk space o Whether you have the minimum required system parameter values 1-10 Preparing to Install the Software 1.8 Installation Procedure Requirements See Section 3.1 for information on requirements specific to VMSINSTAL installations. 1.8.1 Process Account Quotas The installation procedure requires that the installation account has the minimum quotas shown in Table 1-2. Table_1-2_Process_Quotas_for_the_Installation_Account______ Quota_Name__Alpha_Value___VAX_Value________________________ ASTLM 250 24 BIOLM 150 18 BYTLM 64,000 32,768 DIOLM 150 18 ENQLM 2,000 30 FILLM__________100____________20___________________________ Use the OpenVMS AUTHORIZE utility to verify and to change process quotas for the installation account in the user authorization file (UAF). (Some sites may restrict the use of the AUTHORIZE utility to certain accounts or users.) For example, to change the BYTLM quota for the account-name installation account, enter the following commands: $ SET DEFAULT SYS$SYSTEM $ RUN AUTHORIZE UAF> SHOW account-name UAF> MODIFY account-name /BYTLM = 32768 UAF> SHOW account-name UAF> EXIT $ LOGOUT After you change the quotas for the installation account, log out of the installation account and log in again for the new quotas to take effect. You can then proceed with the installation. User account quotas are stored in the file SYS$SYSTEM:SYSUAF.DAT. For more information about modifying account quotas, see the description of the AUTHORIZE utility in the OpenVMS System Management Utilities Reference Manual. 1-11 Preparing to Install the Software 1.8 Installation Procedure Requirements 1.8.2 Disk Space Use Table 1-3 to determine the amount of free disk space that is required on the system disk to install DECwindows Motif components. However, because you can choose not to install all the components, your actual disk space requirement may be less. To determine the number of free blocks on the system disk, enter the following command at the DCL prompt: $ SHOW DEVICE SYS$SYSDEVICE The installation procedure checks for free disk space on the system disk. If sufficient space is not available, the installation procedure provides the following options: o Install fewer optional files. o For VMSINSTAL installations, restart the installation and specify another disk to use as an alternate working device.

The AUTOGEN utility uses system configuration data to automatically set system parameters. ________________________ Note ________________________ The DECwindows Motif installation and startup procedures automatically check for required system parameter values and pass the appropriate values to AUTOGEN. Therefore, in most cases you do not have to check and modify these values manually. ______________________________________________________ 1-16 Preparing to Install the Software 1.8 Installation Procedure Requirements 1.8.4.1 Checking System Parameter Values To check the values of your system parameters, invoke the SYSGEN utility by entering the following command at the DCL prompt: $ RUN SYS$SYSTEM:SYSGEN SYSGEN> At the SYSGEN prompt, enter the SHOW command to display the value of a system parameter. The following command displays the value for the MAXBUF system parameter: SYSGEN> SHOW MAXBUF After checking the parameters with the SHOW command, enter the EXIT command at the SYSGEN prompt to return to DCL level. If the current values are less than the values in Table 1-4, increase the system parameter settings. Section 1.8.4.4 describes the procedures for using the AUTOGEN utility to increase these values. 1.8.4.2 Calculating the Number of Free Global Pages and Global Sections If your system parameter values are equal to or greater than the minimum values specified in Table 1-4, you can continue with the product installation. However, to install and run Compaq DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS software, you must have sufficient free global pages and global sections for the DECwindows Motif software and the file SYS$LIBRARY:DCLTABLES.EXE. First, determine how many free global pages and global sections exist on your system and how many are required to reinstall a new version of SYS$LIBRARY:DCLTABLES.EXE. Then, if necessary, use the AUTOGEN utility to increase the values of the GBLPAGES and GBLSECTIONS system parameters. Enter the following DCL command to determine the number of global pages required for SYS$LIBRARY:DCLTABLES.EXE: $ DIR/SIZE SYS$LIBRARY:DCLTABLES.EXE This command returns the size (in blocks) of the file SYS$LIBRARY:DCLTABLES.EXE. As an approximation, use this figure as the number of global pages needed for the file. 1-17 Preparing to Install the Software 1.8 Installation Procedure Requirements Enter the WRITE command with the F$GETSYI lexical function to find the number of contiguous free global pages and the number of free global sections. The following example shows how to obtain this information at your terminal, which is the default for SYS$OUTPUT: $ WRITE SYS$OUTPUT F$GETSYI("CONTIG_GBLPAGES") 15848 $ WRITE SYS$OUTPUT F$GETSYI("FREE_GBLSECTS") 24 See Table 1-5 to determine whether the number of contiguous free global pages and the number of free global sections is sufficient. If these values are not sufficient to continue with the installation, then see Section 1.8.4.4, which describes the procedures for increasing these values using the AUTOGEN utility. Table 1-5 Required Number of Contiguous Free Global Pages __________and_Free_Global_Sections_________________________ _____________Currently_Running_DECwindows_Motif____________ System_Resource__Alpha_Value___VAX_Value___________________ CONTIG_GBLPAGES 12,000 6,000 FREE_GBLSECTS 20 20 ___________________________________________________________ ___________Not_Currently_Running_DECwindows_Motif__________ System_Resource__Alpha_Value___VAX_Value___________________ CONTIG_GBLPAGES 92,000 47,000 FREE_GBLSECTS______260___________130_______________________ 1.8.4.3 Setting the Size of the Page File In order for DECwindows Motif to run with acceptable performance, the page file must be large enough to handle the virtual memory requirements of your system. The optimal size of the page file depends on many factors, such as the amount of physical memory on the system and the application work load. 1-18 Preparing to Install the Software 1.8 Installation Procedure Requirements As a general rule, the page file size should be at least 75,000 blocks on OpenVMS Alpha systems and 50,000 blocks on OpenVMS VAX systems. However, these sizes may be too small on systems where a large number of applications are run. On a heavily loaded system it may be possible to achieve large performance improvements by increasing the size of the page file by a factor of two or more. Normally you should run AUTOGEN with feedback and let AUTOGEN calculate the size of the page file based on the usage pattern on your system. To run AUTOGEN with feedback, enter the following DCL command: $ @SYS$UPDATE:AUTOGEN SAVPARAMS REBOOT FEEDBACK You can also increase the size of the page file by running the SYSGEN utility or by invoking the command procedure SYS$UPDATE:SWAPFILES.COM. For more information about setting the size of the page file and running AUTOGEN, see the Guide to Setting Up an OpenVMS System. For more information about performance tuning in general, see the Guide to OpenVMS Performance Management. 1.8.4.4 Changing System Parameter Values Using the AUTOGEN Utility Use the AUTOGEN utility to change system parameters. AUTOGEN automatically adjusts values for parameters that are associated with the values you reset manually. To change system parameters with AUTOGEN, edit the file SYS$SYSTEM:MODPARAMS.DAT. To change a parameter value listed in this file, delete the current value associated with that parameter and enter the new value. To add a new parameter, add a line to the file and include both the name of the parameter and its value. For example: MIN_MAXBUF = 8192 To make incremental adjustments to parameters, such as global pages and global sections, use ADD_. The following example increases the global pages value by 30,000: ADD_GBLPAGES = 30000 1-19 Preparing to Install the Software 1.8 Installation Procedure Requirements Table 1-6 lists the system parameters that you need to adjust incrementally. Table 1-6 Recommended System Parameter Values to Use with __________the_ADD__Option__________________________________ System Alpha Parameter________Increment_____VAX_Increment_______________ SYSMWCNT - 235 GBLSECTIONS 280 140 GBLPAGES 92,000 30,000 GBLPAGFIL 768 5,000 NPAGEDYN 300,000 500,000 PAGEDYN__________180,000_______100,000_____________________ After you enter all your changes, exit from the file and execute the AUTOGEN utility to recalculate your system parameters. Enter the following command to recalculate your system parameters and reboot the system: $ @SYS$UPDATE:AUTOGEN GETDATA REBOOT When you specify REBOOT, the AUTOGEN utility performs an automatic system shutdown and then reboots the system. Any users logged in to the system are immediately disconnected during the shutdown. The automatic reboot puts the new parameter values into effect. For details about using AUTOGEN, see the section about the AUTOGEN utility in the OpenVMS System Manager's Manual and the AUTOGEN section in OpenVMS System Management Utilities Reference Manual. 1.8.5 Backing Up Your System Disk Compaq recommends that you back up your system disk before you install any software. At the beginning of the installation, the installation procedure asks whether your system disk is backed up. Use the backup procedures that are established at your site. For details about performing a system disk backup, see the section on the Backup utility in the OpenVMS System Management Utilities Reference Manual. 1-20 Preparing to Install the Software 1.8 Installation Procedure Requirements 1.8.6 Notifying Other Users Inform users on the system that you plan to install a product and that they must log out during the installation. To make sure that you are the only user logged in to the system, follow these steps: 1. Notify current users to log out. Enter the following command at the DCL prompt: $ REPLY/ALL/BELL/SHUTDOWN "Log out for the installation of - _$ Compaq DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS, Version 1.2--6 please..." 2. Enter the following command at the DCL prompt to prevent nonprivileged users from logging in to the system: $ SET LOGINS/INTERACTIVE=0 If possible, give users an estimated time when they can log in to the system again. 1-21 2 _________________________________________________________________ Using the POLYCENTER Software Installation Utility This chapter describes how to install and configure Compaq DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS software using the POLYCENTER Software Installation utility on Alpha and VAX systems.

Included is a step-by-step description of the installation procedure, information about error recovery, and instructions for accessing the release notes. ________________________ Note ________________________ The VMSINSTAL installation procedure is only provided for VMS Version 5.5-2 systems and should not be used on OpenVMS Version 6.2 and OpenVMS Version 7.1 systems. Use the POLYCENTER Software Installation utility to install DECwindows Motif on these OpenVMS systems; see Chapter 2. ______________________________________________________ Using the VMSINSTAL procedure, the Compaq DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS installation takes approximately 45 minutes, depending on the processor type. The VMSINSTAL procedure installs the Compaq DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS product on your system disk. ________________________ Note ________________________ A Product Authorization Key (PAK) for Compaq DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS must be registered and loaded before starting the Compaq DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS installation. ______________________________________________________ 3-1 Using the VMSINSTAL Procedure (VMS Version 5.5-2 Only) _______________________ Caution _______________________ If you do not have a satisfactory backup copy of your system disk, do not attempt to install Compaq DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS software. Back up the system disk (as described in the OpenVMS upgrade and installation supplement for your VAX processor) before you install Compaq DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS software. Before beginning the installation procedure, review Chapter 1 for information about installation preparations and requirements. ______________________________________________________ This chapter presents information about the following topics: o Section 3.1, Installation Procedure Requirements o Section 3.2, Installation Procedure o Section 3.3, Recovering from Errors o Section 3.4, Accessing the Release Notes 3.1 Installation Procedure Requirements This section discusses the requirements for installing your Compaq DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS VAX software using the VMSINSTAL installation procedure. Refer to Section 1.8 for information on requirements common to both VMSINSTAL and PCSI installations. Prepare to install Compaq DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS software by logging in to a privileged account, such as the system manager (SYSTEM) account. See Section 3.1.1 for the prerequisite privileges. Although Compaq prefers that you perform the installation using the operator console or other hardcopy terminal, you can perform the installation from a DECterm window. 3-2 Using the VMSINSTAL Procedure (VMS Version 5.5-2 Only) 3.1 Installation Procedure Requirements 3.1.1 Process Privileges To install Compaq DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS software, you must be logged in to an account that has the SETPRV privilege or the following privileges: o CMKRNL o WORLD o SYSPRV The installation procedures turn off the BYPASS privilege at the start of the installation and turn it back on when the installation is completed. 3.1.2 Using an Alternate Working Device You can use the alternate working device (AWD) option to specify another disk to temporarily store the files while they are being unpacked from the save sets on the distribution media. Once the save sets are unpacked, the installation procedure adds or replaces the files that are necessary for the installation of Compaq DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS software from the AWD to the system disk. If this installation is to upgrade an existing DECwindows Motif environment, then the AWD option allows you to perform an installation with fewer free blocks on the system disk than are otherwise required. The installation procedure creates a temporary working directory either on the AWD device or by default in the following location: SYS$SYSROOT:[SYSUPD.facunvvv] If you use the AWD option, you can specify a directory. Specifying a directory is optional, but the following guidelines apply: o If you specify an existing directory, the installation procedure creates a working directory as a subdirectory within the directory that you specify (for example, [WORK.facunvvv]). The installation procedure deletes the working subdirectory after the installation is completed. 3-3 Using the VMSINSTAL Procedure (VMS Version 5.5-2 Only) 3.1 Installation Procedure Requirements o If you do not specify a directory, the installation procedure creates a working directory on the specified device with a directory specification of [000000.facunvvv]. The installation procedure deletes the working directory after the installation is completed. o If you specify a nonexistent directory, the installation procedure creates both the specified directory and a working directory as subdirectories within the directory that you specify. The installation procedure deletes only the working directory and not the originally specified directory after the installation is completed. You must delete the specified directory manually. Use the following format to invoke the VMSINSTAL procedure and specify the AWD option: $ @SYS$UPDATE:VMSINSTAL facunvvv dkcu OPTIONS N,AWD=ddcu:[dir] Use the following definitions for the variables in the command line: o For facunvvv, supply the product name and version number. For the Compaq DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS installation, the value of facunvvv is DWMOTIFVAXU6012. o For dkcu, give the device name of the source drive that holds the distribution media. o For ddcu, give the device name of the alternate working device. o For dir, specify the name of the directory on the alternate working device where the product subdirectory will be created. The default is [000000]. For example, to install the Compaq DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS product from the compact disc onto an OpenVMS VAX system using DKA2 as the alternate working device, enter the following command: $ @SYS$UPDATE:VMSINSTAL DWMOTIFVAXU6012 source-drive - _$ OPTIONS N,AWD=DKA2: 3-4 Using the VMSINSTAL Procedure (VMS Version 5.5-2 Only) 3.1 Installation Procedure Requirements 3.1.3 Using the Distributed File Service You can specify a temporary working directory on a disk that uses the Distributed File Service (DFS). If you use a DFS-mounted disk as your alternate working device, the installation procedure erroneously reports that there are -1 free blocks on the alternate working device. This error occurs because the DFS client (the installation procedure, in this case) cannot determine the amount of free disk space on the DFS-mounted disk. Before using a DFS-mounted disk, manually determine its free disk space. Log in to the system on which the disk is mounted, and enter the SHOW DEVICE command as follows: $ SHOW DEVICE 3.2 Installation Procedure The Compaq DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS installation procedure consists of a series of questions and informational messages. Enter a question mark (?) for help at any time during the installation. See Appendix B for a sample VMSINSTAL installation of DECwindows Motif on an OpenVMS VAX system. To stop the installation procedure, press Ctrl/Y. When you press Ctrl/Y, the installation procedure deletes all files created up to that point and then exits. You can then restart the installation. ________________________ Note ________________________ This option is not recommended. ______________________________________________________ 3.2.1 Product and Device Names During the installation, you must tell the system what product is being installed and which drive contains the distribution media. Refer to a product with its facility name and version; refer to a drive with its device name. Use the following format to enter product and device names: o facunvvv 3-5 Using the VMSINSTAL Procedure (VMS Version 5.5-2 Only) 3.2 Installation Procedure Represents the facility name and version number of the product being installed, also known as the installation name. The following table explains the format of facunvvv. ________________________________________________________ Variable__Definition____________________________________ fac Product name code (1 to 36 alphanumeric characters) u Update character "u" (1 character) n Update version number (1 digit) vvv_______Major_version_number_(3_digits)_______________ For the Compaq DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS installation, use the installation name DWMOTIFVAXU6012. o ddcu Specifies the device name of the source drive that holds the distribution media. For additional information about device names on your system, see the upgrade and installation supplement for your VAX processor. 3.2.2 Invoking the VMSINSTAL Procedure To start the installation, invoke the VMSINSTAL command procedure from a privileged account, such as the SYSTEM account. The VMSINSTAL.COM file is located in the SYS$UPDATE directory. When the system prompts you with a question during the installation procedure, the default answer is often listed in brackets ([]). Perform the following steps to run the VMSINSTAL procedure and install Compaq DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS software: 1. Locate the Compaq DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS distribution media. 2. If your system is not already running, start up the system and log in to a privileged account, such as the system manager (SYSTEM) account. 3-6 Using the VMSINSTAL Procedure (VMS Version 5.5-2 Only) 3.2 Installation Procedure 3. Place the distribution media in the source drive. If your Compaq DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS distribution kit contains more than one volume, place the first volume in the drive. During the installation procedure, you will be prompted to load the next volume. The paper labels on the media indicate the order in which you load them. 4. Start the VMSINSTAL procedure. On the command line, specify the product name (that is, the facility name): DWMOTIFVAXU6012 for OpenVMS VAX systems. Specify OPTIONS N to access the release notes, which are included in your media kit. The Compaq DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS Release Notes can be displayed or printed before the installation begins. Enter the following command at the DCL prompt: $ @SYS$UPDATE:VMSINSTAL DWMOTIFVAXU6012 ddcu: OPTIONS N For ddcu, specify the device name of the source drive that holds the distribution media. See Section 3.2.1 for more information about the format of product and device names. Also, see the OpenVMS upgrade and installation supplement for your VAX processor. For example, if you install Compaq DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS from a magnetic tape cartridge in drive MUA0:, enter the following command to invoke the VMSINSTAL command procedure: $ @SYS$UPDATE:VMSINSTAL DWMOTIFVAXU6012 MUA0: OPTIONS N If you install Compaq DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS using the alternate working device (AWD) option described in Section 3.1.2, invoke the VMSINSTAL command procedure as follows: $ @SYS$UPDATE:VMSINSTAL DWMOTIFVAXU6012 ddcu: OPTIONS N,AWD=ddcu:[dir] The first instance of ddcu is the device name of the source drive that holds the distribution media. The second instance of ddcu is the device name of the AWD, which is the target device. The variable dir is the name of the directory on the alternate working device in which the product subdirectory is created. The default directory is [000000]. 3-7 Using the VMSINSTAL Procedure (VMS Version 5.5-2 Only) 3.2 Installation Procedure For example, if you are installing Compaq DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS from a magnetic tape cartridge in drive MUA0: using alternate working device DUA2: and directory [INSTALL], enter the following command: $ @SYS$UPDATE:VMSINSTAL DWMOTIFVAXU6012 MUA0: OPTIONS N,AWD=DUA2:[INSTALL] If the command to execute the VMSINSTAL procedure fails, check to see if any of the following conditions occurred: o You entered the product name incorrectly. VMSINSTAL displays the following message: %VMSINSTAL-E-NOPRODS, None of the specified products were found o You specified an incorrect name for the source drive. VMSINSTAL displays an "invalid device" error message and prompts you until you enter the name of a source device that exists on the system. Remember to enter a colon (:) after the device name. The VMSINSTAL procedure displays messages similar to the following: VAX/VMS Software Product Installation Procedure V5.5-2 It is 26-MAR-2000 at 08:02 Enter a question mark (?) at any time for help. 3.2.3 Confirming System Backup The VMSINSTAL procedure asks the following question: * Are you satisfied with the backup of your system disk [Yes]?

If this situation occurs, log in to the system, install the valid license, and start your DECwindows Motif software. For complete information on installing licenses using LMF, see the OpenVMS License Management Utility Manual. 4.1 Starting the DECwindows Motif Software If you perform a system reboot following the installation of DECwindows Motif, the DECwindows startup procedure runs automatically when the system reboots. On OpenVMS Alpha systems, either the New Desktop login dialog box or the DECwindows desktop Start Session dialog box is displayed, depending on the value of the DECW$START_NEW_DESKTOP global symbol. (See Section 4.4 for more information.) On OpenVMS VAX systems the Start Session dialog box is displayed. Proceed to Section 4.2 if you allowed a system reboot and DECwindows has successfully started. If you chose not to reboot the system after the installation, you must start or restart the DECwindows Motif software by running the DECwindows startup procedure, as described in the following paragraphs. When the startup 4-1 After Installing the Software 4.1 Starting the DECwindows Motif Software procedure has successfully completed, either the New Desktop login dialog box or the DECwindows desktop Start Session dialog box is displayed, as explained in the previous paragraph. Compaq DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS software can be started only if your system parameters are correct. Proceed to one of the following sections if your system parameters are correct: o Section 4.1.1, Standalone Systems o Section 4.1.2, OpenVMS Cluster Systems If your system parameters are not correct, then use one of the following methods to adjust them accordingly: o Invoke the AUTOGEN utility: $ @SYS$UPDATE:AUTOGEN GETDATA REBOOT CHECK_FEEDBACK o Attempt to start the DECwindows Motif software. The DECwindows Motif startup procedure checks your system parameters. If they are too low, the procedure displays a series of messages describing the required system parameters. These same parameters are adjusted in the system's MODPARAMS.DAT file. Then the procedure displays following: Some SYSGEN parameters must be reset for DECwindows to start. If you type YES, AUTOGEN will change these parameters and reboot your system. If you type NO, AUTOGEN will not run or cause a reboot, but DECwindows will not start. To run AUTOGEN at a later date, enter the following command: $ @SYS$UPDATE:AUTOGEN getdata reboot check_feedback Do you want the system to run AUTOGEN for you [Yes]? After the system is rebooted and the startup is completed, the Start Session dialog box displays. The Compaq DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS software is now installed and running on your system.

Now run the IVP as described in Section 4.2. 4-4 After Installing the Software 4.2 Running the IVP 4.2 Running the IVP Run the IVP, SYS$TEST:DECW$IVP.COM, after you install and start the Compaq DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS product. This procedure contains four tests, which verify that the software installation is complete and accurate. First, the IVP procedure attempts to run two display- oriented tests. When you invoke the IVP, it identifies your type of hardware. o If you are using a workstation, you are asked where the display-oriented tests should display. Your current workstation is the default. o If you are not using a workstation, the procedure prompts you for a display name. Press Ctrl/Z at the prompt if you do not want to run the display-oriented tests. The IVP runs these tests only if the images exist on the system. If the IVP does not find the images, a message displays to inform you that the tests will not be run. ________________________ Note ________________________ If you are invoking the IVP from a LAT Xterminal using LAT software, enter the following command first: $ SET DISPLAY/CREATE/NODE=LAT_nnnnnnnnnnnn/TRANSPORT=LAT Substitute your actual LAT terminal number for nnnnnnnnnn. Enter the default at the _Display: prompt. ______________________________________________________ Next, the IVP runs two nondisplay-oriented tests. o The first of these tests invokes the Motif UIL compiler. If you did not install programming support, the IVP informs you that this test will not be run because the Motif UIL image does not exist. If this test is run, you are notified of its completion status. 4-5 After Installing the Software 4.2 Running the IVP o The last test converts a text file to DDIF format and then converts it back to text, comparing the original text file with the result. If the files match, the test is successful. You are notified of its completion status. Example 4-1 shows you how to run the IVP. Example 4-1 Sample IVP $ @SYS$TEST:DECW$IVP Copyright 2000 Compaq Computer Corporation Compaq DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS Installation Verification Procedure (IVP) This IVP is intended to test some of the functionality of DECwindows Motif and to provide a quick method of verifying the installation. This machine is not a workstation. Please provide the nodename of a workstation on which to display the IVP tests. You must be sure that this account and node have security access to the display node, or the IVP will fail. To skip the display-oriented tests, press Ctrl/Z at the following prompt. _Display: NODE33::0.0 %DECW-I-IVP, The IVP will display on NODE33::0.0 %DECW-I-IVP, Running DECW$EXAMPLES:ICO.EXE for up to a minute. %DECW-I-IVP, Press Ctrl/Y to interrupt test. %DCL-S-SPAWNED, process DECW$IVP_ICO spawned %DECW-I-IVP, Running SYS$SYSTEM:DECW$CLOCK for up to a minute. %DECW-I-IVP, Press Ctrl/Y to interrupt test. %DCL-S-SPAWNED, process DECW$IVP_CLOCK spawned %DECW-I-IVP, Invoking the UIL Motif compiler... %DECW-S-IVP, The UIL Motif compiler test completed successfully. %DECW-I-IVP, Beginning CONVERT/DOCUMENT IVP... %DECW-S-IVP, CONVERT/DOCUMENT IVP passed. %DECW-S-IVP, The IVP has completed. $ 4-6 After Installing the Software 4.3 Choosing an Alternate Console 4.3 Choosing an Alternate Console The Compaq DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS software allows you to boot all configurations from the main console. You can then toggle between displaying and not displaying the operator window by pressing Ctrl/F2. The main console is always a workstation screen. If you are logged in to the main console (workstation screen), you must log out before DECwindows will start. Issue the following command from the main console: $ @SYS$MANAGER:DECW$STARTUP Once the command procedure completes, log out of the main console. Otherwise the server will not start and a login box will not appear. For an alternative console, you can use a terminal connected to the workstation by means of a terminal port. If you boot from the main console, the alternative console is connected when you invoke the DECwindows Motif startup command procedure. If you boot the system from an alternative console, you cannot start the Console Window application. This application is described in the release notes. 4.4 Selecting the Desktop (Alpha Only) On OpenVMS Alpha systems, Compaq DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS provides a choice of two desktops: the New Desktop, which is derived from the Common Desktop Environment (CDE), and the traditional DECwindows desktop. During the installation, if you choose to install both the New Desktop and the DECwindows desktop, you are asked which desktop you wish to be the default desktop. To select the other desktop as the default desktop, perform the following steps. 1. If the file SYS$MANAGER:DECW$PRIVATE_APPS_SETUP.COM does not exist, copy it from DECW$PRIVATE_APPS_SETUP.TEMPLATE (or create it if an earlier version of DECwindows Motif has not been installed on your system). For example: 4-7 After Installing the Software 4.4 Selecting the Desktop (Alpha Only) $ COPY SYS$MANAGER:DECW$PRIVATE_APPS_SETUP.TEMPLATE - _$ SYS$COMMON:[SYSMGR]DECW$PRIVATE_APPS_SETUP.COM 2. Edit SYS$MANAGER:DECW$PRIVATE_APPS_SETUP.COM and add a symbol definition for DECW$START_NEW_DESKTOP. If you wish the New Desktop as the default enter the following global symbol definition: $ DECW$START_NEW_DESKTOP == "TRUE" If you wish the DECwindows desktop as the default, enter the following global symbol definition: $ DECW$START_NEW_DESKTOP == "FALSE" 3. Restart DECwindows using the following command: $ @SYS$MANAGER:DECW$STARTUP RESTART 4-8 5 _________________________________________________________________ Managing DECwindows Motif Software This chapter contains information about managing the performance of your Compaq DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS software. It also describes how to add and remove DECwindows Motif files from your system disk using tailoring utilities. See Managing DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS Systems for additional system management information. The following topics are discussed in this chapter: o Section 5.1, Customizing the DECwindows X11 Display Server Startup Procedure o Section 5.2, Using the DECW$MOTIF_TAILOR Utility (VMS Version 5.5-2 Only) o Section 5.3, Adding DECwindows Base-Support Files o Section 5.4, Determining and Reporting Problems After you install the Compaq DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS product, you can tune your system to enhance performance or to decrease the use of some system resources. For information about tuning your system, see Managing DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS Systems. 5.1 Customizing the DECwindows X11 Display Server Startup Procedure The DECwindows X11 display server manages the graphics devices on your workstation, such as the display, keyboard, and mouse. ________________________ Note ________________________ Start the DECwindows X11 display server on workstation systems only. ______________________________________________________ 5-1 Managing DECwindows Motif Software 5.1 Customizing the DECwindows X11 Display Server Startup Procedure The startup command procedures automatically determine most of the configuration parameters for the DECwindows X11 display server. However, the command procedures cannot determine some items, such as the following: o Whether you have a 75-dpi or 100-dpi monitor o Whether you have a North American keyboard layout (such as for an LK201-AA or -LA or an LK401-AA or -LA keyboard) o Whether the DECwindows X11 display server uses only DECnet for OpenVMS software and local transports o Whether the DECwindows X11 display server logs both successful and unsuccessful connect and disconnect messages to the DECW$SERVER_n_ERROR.LOG file To ensure that the DECwindows X11 display server is set up correctly, modify the server startup file as follows: 1. Make a copy of the file SYS$MANAGER:DECW$PRIVATE_ SERVER_SETUP.TEMPLATE and rename it to SYS$MANAGER:DECW$PRIVATE_SERVER_SETUP.COM. This server startup file shows how to customize individual workstations by adding a section of DCL commands for each workstation. You can add setup options in either of two sections in the server startup file. Setup options added to the "Cluster Common or Standalone Workstation Setup" section affect all nodes in a cluster. Setup options added to the "Cluster Member Workstation-Specific Setup" section affect only individual nodes. If you add a workstation- specific option, you must also update the variable node_ list. 2. If your screen supports 100 dots-per-inch, add the following line: $ DECW$SERVER_DENSITY == "100" Add this line to the section for each workstation that has a 100 dots-per-inch monitor, or add it to the common section for all workstations (if all the workstations have 100-dpi monitors). 5-2 Managing DECwindows Motif Software 5.1 Customizing the DECwindows X11 Display Server Startup Procedure 3. If you want the server to log successful connect and disconnect messages, add the following line: $ DECW$SERVER_CONNECT_LOG == "TRUE" 4. Add the following line to the section for monochrome GPX workstations: $ DECW$COLOR == "FALSE" No modification is necessary for grayscale (intensity) screens. 5. Add the following line to the section for workstations with keyboards that are not North American LK201 models: $ DECW$DEFAULT_KEYMAP == "xxxxx" In the previous line, replace xxxxx with the correct DECwindows keymap name. You can determine the correct name from the model number of your LK201 or LK401 keyboard. Turn the keyboard upside down and look for a label that specifies the model number. The model number is in a format similar to LK201-xx or LK401-xx. The model number may also be listed as LK201 or LK401. In this case, the xx that you need is in another part of the label where there is a number that looks similar to the following: nn-nnnnn-xx Use the xx part of this number to choose a keymap name from Table 5-1. Choose the keymap ending in _DP for data-processing keyboard layout and the keymap ending in _TW for typewriter layout. Table 5-1 is arranged according to the dialect for which each keyboard is designed. After you choose a keymap name, modify the DECwindows X11 display server startup file.

Log in to the SYSTEM account. 2. Enter the following command at the DCL prompt: $ RUN SYS$UPDATE:DECW$MOTIF_TAILOR After a brief overview, the DECW$MOTIF_TAILOR utility lists each group, or class, of files and its size in blocks. Files are grouped according to their function. For example, all the files required for DECwindows for OpenVMS device support are in one class. A file class is made up of many small subclasses. You can eliminate an entire class of files, or you can eliminate one or more of its subclasses. For example: CLASS - VMS DECwindows Motif applications files Size of entire class (with subclasses): 12181 Size of common files required for any subclass: 11160 Do you wish to select the entire class (default = NO)? Do you wish to select any of its subclasses (default = NO)? . . . 5-11 Managing DECwindows Motif Software 5.2 Using the DECW$MOTIF_TAILOR Utility (VMS Version 5.5-2 Only) 3. Decide which file classes or subclasses you do not need to support your system. The DECW$MOTIF_TAILOR utility displays step-by-step instructions. Follow these instructions to specify which of the classes or subclasses you want to remove. 4. The DECW$MOTIF_TAILOR utility deletes the files you select and displays the names of those files. You can ignore "file not found" messages in the log files; tailoring functions are not affected by these messages. The installation procedure deletes files that it does not read. _______________________ Caution _______________________ To cancel DECW$MOTIF_TAILOR during the first phase, press Ctrl/C, Ctrl/Y, or Ctrl/Z. If you cancel DECW$MOTIF_TAILOR during the second phase, a partially tailored disk may result.

This will help you decide whether or not you want to remove a class or subclass from your system. Under some classes there is a set of common files that is required in order for any subclasses to work. These files will only be deleted if you remove the ENTIRE class. If you choose to keep any subclass, this set of files is not deleted.

DECW$TAILOR is similar to DECW$MOTIF_TAILOR. However, the DECW$TAILOR utility is used to add or remove files that support the DECwindows display server (for example: base- support, workstation, and font files). DECW$TAILOR includes three phases: o The first phase asks whether you want to tailor your system by adding files ("tailor on") or by deleting files ("tailor off"). o In the second phase, if you choose the tailor-on procedure, DECW$TAILOR lists each class of DECwindows files and asks whether you want to include them on the system disk. If you choose the tailor-off procedure, DECW$TAILOR lists each class of DECwindows files and asks whether you want to delete them from the system disk. o In the third phase, DECW$TAILOR carries out your instructions. ________________________ Note ________________________ To cancel DECW$TAILOR during the first and second phases, press Ctrl/C, Ctrl/Y, or Ctrl/Z. If you cancel DECW$TAILOR during the third phase, a partially tailored disk may result. ______________________________________________________ Table 5-3 lists the classes and subclasses of DECwindows files that you can add or remove from your system using DECW$TAILOR. 5-15 Managing DECwindows Motif Software 5.3 Adding DECwindows Base-Support Files ________________________ Note ________________________ VMS Version 5.5-2 uses different class names.
