The term middleware is used to describe this level of software. See The Middleware Source Book (Order Number EY-S5454E-DP) for a description of the standards supported by the NAS packages. NAS software provides a consistent set of interfaces to support applications running on different platforms. It is the OpenVMS approach to enterprise-wide information systems. The NAS architecture defines a comprehensive set of services that enables applications to work easily across diverse hardware and software platforms and networks. The NAS architecture groups these services into six categories: o Presentation services o Printing services o Communication services o Control services o Computation services Overview 1-1 o Management services The components of the NAS packages represent the implementation of the services defined by the NAS architecture. For example, DECwindows Motif implements the X-Windows Motif and PEX standards. This guide provides an overview of considerations for installing the components and installing and using the NAS packages licenses and tools. 1.2 NAS Packages The NAS packages make it easy to use NAS services. They include an integrated set of the most commonly used services, along with the underlying network transports. They merge a set of components that enables the creation of run-time clients and servers. The NAS Client 150 provides base client software services: network transports, graphical user interface (GUI), and clustering. These services allow the integration of data and applications in a distributed, multiplatform client/server environment. The NAS Base Server 200 provides the choice of common network transports and base services, such as print and file sharing, and presentation services required for distributed client/server environments. The NAS Client 250 builds on the NAS Client 150 and provides the client and peer-to-peer software to allow PCs and workstations to integrate with users, data, and other applications in a distributed, multiplatform client/server environment. The NAS Server 300 includes the NAS Base Server 200 and extends it with a set of commonly used industry-standard application programming interfaces (APIs) and services that enable applications to integrate with users, data, and other applications in a distributed, multiplatform client/server environment. Building upon the NAS Server 300, the NAS Production Server 400 enhances the reliability and availability of applications, data, and systems for business-critical environments such as transaction processing. 1-2 Overview This guide provides information about NAS Packages Version 8.2 for OpenVMS VAX and Alpha Systems. 1.2.1 What Has Changed in the NAS Packages The NAS Packages have moved to a license-only delivery as of Version 8.1a (January 1998). Separate NAS media has been discontinued. The NAS components can be found on the Software Product Library. Some can be ordered separately. NAS Packages Version 8.2 documents the NAS component product changes over the past two years, including product updates and retirements. Beginning with Version 8.2, regular updates of the NAS Packages updates will be resumed in order to better document changes to the components. 1.2.2 Components of the NAS Packages The tables in this section list the components in the various NAS Packages. The NAS packages do not provide a license for all components delivered (for example, PATHWORKS server software). Consult the Software Product Description (SPD) for your NAS package for licensing information about a specific component. The version of each NAS component licensed is as stated within the Software Products Library of the calendar quarter in which the NAS PAK is dated. Update licenses may be purchased for use of later versions of any component. The notes in the tables indicate that some of the components listed are system-integrated products (SIPs), installed as part of the operating system. Your NAS package provides licenses to run these products. Online documentation for these SIPs is provided on the OpenVMS VAX operating system documentation CD-ROM. Online documentation for the other NAS Packages components is provided on the Online Documentation Library CD-ROM (available as part of the Software Products Library or separately orderable). Table 1-1 lists the components of the NAS Client 150. See Table 1-2 through Table 1-5 for individual package components for NAS Base Server 200, NAS Client 250, NAS Overview 1-3 Server 300, and NAS Production Server 400. For further information, see the SPD for each package.

For more information about Compaq licensing terms and policies, contact your local Compaq office, or visit the Compaq Software Licensing page on the World Wide Web at: http://www.compaq.com/products/software/info/ ______________________________________________________ You can install NAS packages only on OpenVMS VAX Version 7.1 or 7.2, or OpenVMS Alpha Version 7.1, 7.2 or 7.2-1. If you are running an earlier version of the OpenVMS operating system, you must upgrade to OpenVMS VAX Version 7.1 or higher version before proceeding. You must register the software license with the OpenVMS License Management Facility (LMF) before you install the NAS components. Registering the NAS packages license registers all the components for that package. 2-4 NAS Packages Preparation and Installation The Product Authorization Key (PAK) that is shipped with the NAS packages contains the license registration information you need. The PAK is a paper certificate that contains information about the license you have purchased to run all NAS component software. This section deals with license registration, which is a preinstallation procedure. 2.2.1 Installing a NAS Package: At a Glance The checklist in Figure 2-1 summarizes the major steps necessary to successfully install a Compaq NAS package on OpenVMS VAX: Figure 2-1 NAS Installation Checklist for OpenVMS Systems A checklist summarizing the major steps necessary to successfully install a NAS package on OpenVMS: TASK Task Checkoff (continued on next page) NAS Packages Preparation and Installation 2-5 Figure 2-1 (Cont.)

NAS Installation Checklist for OpenVMS Systems * = In most cases you will have already done this, and these steps will not be necessary. ________________________ Note ________________________ If you are updating the system parameters, you must reboot your system before installing the individual NAS packages components, or the components installations may fail. ______________________________________________________ 2.2.2 NAS packages License Registration Register only the highest NAS packages license. For example: o If you are upgrading to the NAS Server 300 or NAS Production Server 400 from the NAS Base Server 200 o If you are upgrading to the NAS Client 250 from the NAS Client 150 Disable and unload the lower-level license by using the LICENSE DISABLE and the LICENSE UNLOAD commands. These commands are described in the OpenVMS License Management Utility Manual. In general, higher level NAS packages include the right to use all components of a lower level NAS package. The exception is the NAS Base Server 200, which does not include the right to use all NAS Client 150 components. To register a license, log in to the SYSTEM account and run the SYS$UPDATE:VMSLICENSE.COM procedure. When the procedure prompts you for information, enter data from your PAK. The product name is one of the following, depending on which license you purchased: NET-APP-SUP-150 for the NAS Client 150 NET-APP-SUP-200 for the NAS Base Server 200 NET-APP-SUP-250 for the NAS Client 250 NAS Packages Preparation and Installation 2-7 NET-APP-SUP-300 for the NAS Server 300 NET-APP-SUP-400 for the NAS Production Server 400 2.2.3 VAXcluster/VMScluster License Requirements If you are installing the NAS packages on a VAXcluster /VMScluster, you must: 1. Purchase a separate license for each node in your VAXcluster or VMScluster that will use the NAS packages. The NAS Base Server 200 does not include a license for VAXcluster or VMScluster Software. 2. Register a license for each node in the VAXcluster that will use the NAS packages, using the command procedure SYS$UPDATE:VMSLICENSE.COM. 3. Modify the license to limit its use to the intended node with a command in the following format: LICENSE MODIFY /INCLUDE=nodename /AUTH=authorization# NET-APP-SUP-nnn In this format: o nodename is the name of the node on which VAXcluster can be used. o authorization# is your license authorization number. o nnn indicates the NAS package you are registering. The following example modifies the license for the NAS Server 300 on node MYNODE in a VAXcluster: $ LICENSE MODIFY /INCLUDE=MYNODE /AUTH=AL9-WM-99999-999 NET-APP-SUP-300 4. Enter the LICENSE LOAD command from the node you indicate in step 3, or use the OpenVMS SYSMAN Utility. For complete information on using LMF, see the OpenVMS License Management Utility Manual in the OpenVMS operating system documentation CD-ROM. 2-8 NAS Packages Preparation and Installation 2.2.4 NAS Packages Licenses that Duplicate Existing Licenses If your system contains a license for a NAS packages component that is separate from the NAS packages license, then a licensing problem may exist. To avoid the problem, you should modify single component license(s) to exclude the node(s) licensed to the NAS PAK. Modify the NAS packages license to include only the node that it licenses. For example, use a procedure in the following format to prevent a new node from using the current DECwindows Motif (DW-MOTIF) license on the cluster and use the NAS Server 300 license instead: $ LICENSE MODIFY DW-MOTIF/EXCLUDE=NAS-node-name $ LICENSE MODIFY NET-APP-SUP-300/INCLUDE=NAS-node-name /AUTH=authorization# License names for the NAS component products can be found in Chapter 1, within the tables listing the components for each NAS package. For more information on modifying existing licenses, see Section 2.2.3 and the OpenVMS License Management Utility Manual. 2.3 Using the POLYCENTER Software Installation (PCSI) Utility NAS Packages Version 8.2 provide some of the NAS components in POLYCENTER Software Installation (PCSI) format. PCSI distributions have several advantages over traditional VMSINSTAL kits. Some of the major advantages are improved installation speed and the ability to track and deinstall products at a later date. PCSI has both DCL and DECwindows Motif interfaces. For more information on either interface, see the POLYCENTER Software Installation Utility User's Guide. ________________________ Note ________________________ You must read the component installation guides before performing an installation using PCSI. Each component's installation guide provides the specific installation commands for that component, which may NAS Packages Preparation and Installation 2-9 be different from the installation commands used to install the NAS packages. ______________________________________________________ 2.4 Using the VMSINSTAL Utility Use the VMSINSTAL utility to install most of the NAS components. To use VMSINSTAL: 1. Set your default directory to SYS$UPDATE. 2. Invoke VMSINSTAL using a command in the following format: $ @SYS$UPDATE:VMSINSTAL save-set-name device-name: OPTION N In this format, save-set-name is the name of the save set you are installing and device-name: is the name of the device on which you are installing. If you do not supply these two parameters VMSINSTAL prompts you for the product and device names. If you want to be prompted for the product and device names and to display or print the release notes, use the following format: $ @SYS$UPDATE:VMSINSTAL "" "" OPTIONS N 3. VMSINSTAL then checks the following: o Whether you logged in to a privileged account. VMS Engineering recommends that you install software from the system manager's account with your default device and directory set to SYS$UPDATE. o Whether you have adequate quotas for installation. See Section A.1.4 for the process account quotas required for installation of the NAS packages. o Whether DECnet is up and running. o Whether any users are logged in to the system. If either of these last two conditions exist, you should remove the condition before resuming the installation procedure. 2-10 NAS Packages Preparation and Installation If VMSINSTAL detects any problems during the installation, it notifies you and asks if you want to continue the installation. If you have any questions about whether you should continue, refer to the NAS packages component installation guides. To stop the installation process and correct the situation, enter N and press Return. Then correct the problem and restart the installation. 2.5 Modifying System Parameters This section describes: o Checking system parameter values o Using MODPARAMS_NAS*.DAT to update system parameters o Calculating the values for GBLPAGES and GBLSECTIONS o Changing system parameter values with AUTOGEN 2.5.1 Checking System Parameter Values To check the values of your system parameters: 1. Enter the following command at the DCL prompt to invoke the System Generation Utility (SYSGEN): $ RUN SYS$SYSTEM:SYSGEN The screen displays the SYSGEN> prompt. 2. Enter the SHOW command and a system parameter name to display the value of that parameter. The values displayed should equal or exceed the value of each system parameter listed in the appropriate System Parameter Requirements table in Section A.2 for the NAS package you are installing: NAS Client 150 Table A-4 NAS Base Server 200 Table A-5 NAS Client 250 Table A-6 NAS Server 300 Table A-7 NAS Production Table A-8 Server 400 NAS Packages Preparation and Installation 2-11 For example, the following command displays the value for the WSMAX system parameter: SYSGEN> SHOW WSMAX 3. After checking the parameters, enter EXIT at the SYSGEN> prompt to return to DCL level. 2.5.2 Using MODPARAMS_NAS*.DAT to Update System Parameters The NAS Packages Version 8.2 provide a choice of data files (MODPARAMS_NAS*.DAT) that can be edited into your MODPARAMS.DAT file. This provides the minimum parameters necessary in order to install the NAS packages. You may need to increase the parameters specified in these files, depending on what other products are installed on your system. Table 2-2 lists the files that are provided in the NAS kits. Table_2-2_MODPARAM_Files_for_NAS_Packages__________________ NAS_Package________________MODPARAM_File_Name______________ NAS Client 150 MODPARAMS_NAS_CLIENT_150.DAT NAS Base Server 200 MODPARAMS_NAS_BASE_SERVER.DAT NAS Client 250 MODPARAMS_NAS_CLIENT.DAT NAS Server 300 MODPARAMS_NAS_SERVER.DAT NAS_Production_Server_400__MODPARAMS_NAS_PROD_SERVER.DAT___ To use MODPARAMS_NAS*.DAT to update your MODPARAMS.DAT file: 1. Find MODPARAMS_NAS*.DAT in the [NAS_*.DOCUMENTATION] directory. To locate the volume number of the CD where this directory resides, refer to your SPL master index. The directories are described in Table 1-6. 2. Append the MODPARAMS_NAS*.DAT file to the end of SYS$SYSTEM:MODPARAMS.DAT. 2-12 NAS Packages Preparation and Installation 3. After combining the two files, if there are two values for the same MIN_parameter, delete the line that contains the lower value. If you refer to MODPARAMS_NAS.DAT, please update your MODPARAMS.DAT file to reference the new NAS packages parameter files. 2.5.3 Calculating the Values for GBLPAGES and GBLSECTIONS To install and run the NAS packages, you must have sufficient free global pages and global sections. The values for GBLPAGES and GBLSECTIONS in the System Parameter Requirements tables provided in Section A.2 indicate the unused global sections and unused global pages your system needs for the installation to process successfully. To calculate how many unused global pages and global sections your system has: 1. Run the Install Utility (INSTALL) using the following command: $ INSTALL LIST /GLOBAL /SUMMARY The Install Utility displays a summary of global pages and global sections used by your system, as well as the current number of unused global pages. For example: Summary of Local Memory Global Sections 258 Global Sections Used, 22580/3420 Global Pages Used/Unused 2. Determine if the number of unused global pages (3420 in the example) is equal to or greater than what you need. If the number of unused pages is less than what you require, you need to increase the value for GBLPAGES. 3. Note the amount shown for Global Sections Used (258 in the example). 4. Run the System Generation Utility (SYSGEN) and use the SHOW command to determine how many global sections have been allocated. For example: NAS Packages Preparation and Installation 2-13 $ RUN SYS$SYSTEM:SYSGEN SYSGEN> SHOW GBLSECTIONS Parameter Name Current Default Minimum Maximum Unit -------------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ---- GBLSECTIONS 512 250 20 4095 Sect 5. Add the amount shown in the summary (258 in the example) to the value for GBLSECTIONS in the appropriate System Parameter Requirements table provided in Section A.2. If the resulting value is greater than the value for currently available GBLSECTIONS as shown by SYSGEN in step 4, you must increase the value of the GBLSECTIONS parameter. Section 2.5.4 describes the procedures for increasing these values using AUTOGEN. Refer to the OpenVMS System Management manual for information on using AUTOGEN. You can use the WRITE command with the F$GETSYI lexical function to find the number of free global pages and global sections. The following example shows how to get this information at your terminal (the default for SYS$OUTPUT): $ WRITE SYS$OUTPUT F$GETSYI("CONTIG_GBLPAGES") 15848 $ WRITE SYS$OUTPUT F$GETSYI("FREE_GBLSECTS") 24 2.5.4 Changing System Parameter Values with AUTOGEN The component installation guides provide the detailed preinstallation information for each of the components. A system reboot is necessary to incorporate system parameter changes and should be done using AUTOGEN. Each NAS package component has its own system parameter requirements that would require multiple reboots if treated separately. The System Parameter Requirements tables provided in Section A.2 list the minimum required system parameters for each NAS package. The files MODPARAMS_NAS*.DAT contain these parameters, which you use to reset MODPARAMS.DAT. Using these parameters allows you to reset all your system 2-14 NAS Packages Preparation and Installation parameters. Use AUTOGEN to tune the parameters based upon your system workload, and then reboot the system once. By performing these preliminary steps, you avoid a system reboot for each NAS package component to have the parameter changes take effect. Use the AUTOGEN command procedure 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: 1. Edit the file SYS$SYSTEM:MODPARAMS.DAT using thes eguidelines: o To change a parameter value listed in this file, delete the current value associated with that parameter and enter the new value. o To add a new parameter, add a line to the file that includes both the name of the parameter and its value. For example: WSMAX = 4200 o To modify incremental parameters such as GBLPAGES and GBLSECTS, use ADD_. For example, the following increases the global page setting by 2000: ADD_GBLPAGES = 2000 When you set the page file quota, do not use a value that exceeds the amount of page file space available on the system. It is recommended that you use MIN_parameter to set parameters in MODPARAMS.DAT. (An exception does exist: values for NPAGEDYN are additive.) Add the values supplied in the appropriate system parameter requirements table from Section A.2 to the current system values. Use SYSGEN to determine the current values of NPAGEDYN and NPAGEVIR. For example: NAS Packages Preparation and Installation 2-15 $ MCR SYSGEN SYSGEN> USE ACTIVE SYSGEN> SHOW NPAGEDYN Parameter Name Current Default Min. Max. Unit Dynamic -------------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ---- ------- NPAGEDYN 4884992 360000 16384 -1 Bytes Current shows what your system is currently using. In this example you would add a line in the following format to your MODPARAMS.DAT file: MIN_NPAGEDYN = 4884992 + value-from-sys-param-table In this format, value-from-sys-param-table is the value from the appropriate System Parameter Requirements table in Section A.2. 2. Exit from the editor and execute the AUTOGEN procedure to recalculate your system parameters and reboot using the following command: $ @SYS$UPDATE:AUTOGEN GETDATA REBOOT ________________________ Note ________________________ When you specify REBOOT, AUTOGEN performs an automatic system shutdown and then reboots the system. Any users logged on to the system are When you specify REBOOT, AUTOGEN performs an automatic system shutdown and then reboots the system. Any users logged on to the system are immediately disconnected during the shutdown. The automatic reboot puts the new parameter values into effect. ______________________________________________________ The AUTOGEN Utility automatically adjusts some of the SYSGEN parameters based on the consumption of resources since the last reboot. If you do not want to take advantage of this automatic adjustment, include the NOFEEDBACK qualifier on the AUTOGEN command line. For more information about using AUTOGEN, see the OpenVMS System Manager's Manual: Essentials. 2-16 NAS Packages Preparation and Installation 2.6 Identifying and Reporting NAS Packages Installation Problems If an error occurs that you believe is caused by a problem with the NAS packages installation, make sure that you have read the NAS packages release notes to see if the problem is known and has a solution. If your problem is not resolved by this means, do one of the following: o If you have a BASIC or DECsupport Software Agreement, call your Customer Support Center. o If you have a Self-Maintenance Software Agreement, submit a Software Performance Report (SPR). o If neither of the above statements describes your situation and you are under warranty, submit an SPR. In your call or SPR, please note which NAS package component you are having a problem with. NAS Packages Preparation and Installation 2-17 3 _________________________________________________________________ Installing the NAS Packages Components This chapter describes the following: o Component preinstallation considerations Section 3.1 o Component preinstallation checklist Section 3.2 o Component installation order and dependencies Section 3.3 o Component installation Section 3.4 o Postinstallation considerations Section 3.5 3.1 Component Preinstallation Considerations This section describes some considerations you should be aware of before beginning the component installations. 3.1.1 Updating NAS Components If you have already installed a NAS license package on your system, you will update that package by identifying and updating the component products. It is not necessary to re-install the license package. The Master Index of the Software Products Library identifies the currently shipping and updating component versions. This guide describes how to install each of the Compaq NAS[TM] Packages Version 8.2 for OpenVMS[TM] VAX[TM]Systems running OpenVMS VAX Version 7.1 or 7.2 and for OpenVMS Alpha Systems running OpenVMS Alpha Version 7.1, 7.2, or 7.2-1. Installing the NAS Packages Components 3-1 3.1.2 DECnet-Plus Considerations The NAS packages provides Compaq DECnet-Plus[TM]for OpenVMS VAX which is an implementation of Phase V of the DIGITAL Network Architecture (DNA). DECnet-Plus allows you to use DECnet protocols, OSI protocols, or both. You can also run DECnet and OSI applications, unchanged, over TCP/IP, and products from Compaq or from third parties. To configure DECnet-Plus you can use the BASIC, FAST, or ADVANCED configuration. The BASIC configuration can be used in most cases. For details see the following manuals: o DECnet-Plus for OpenVMS Installation and Basic Configuration Manual o DECnet-Plus for OpenVMS Applications Installation and Advanced Configuration Manual 3.1.3 DECnet-Plus Component Restrictions A limited number of NAS Packages components have some restrictions regarding the use of DECnet: o Compaq PATHWORKS for OpenVMS (Advanced Server) This component does not support the use of long names. It will work with DECnet-Plus using node synonyms (allowing continued use of the standard 6-character node name). o Compaq PrintServer Software See the component documentation for details. o DIGITAL TCP/IP Services for OpenVMS If you plan to use the DECnet-Plus over TCP/IP feature, then TCP\IP software is a prerequisite. Your end system will be able to operate over TCP\IP only if the TCP\IP product used on your system supports the PATHWORKS Internet Protocol (PWIP) interface. 3-2 Installing the NAS Packages Components 3.1.4 Retired Product Considerations Over time, some of the NAS component products havae been retired and the right to use those products is no longer included with the NAS packages. They are not shipped on the OpenVMS Software Products Library, and not supported in Compaq. If your original purchases of a NAS package included licenses for component products that have now been retired, your licenses will continue to be honored if you install a more recent NAS license package. Please see Appendix C for a list of retired component products. 3.2 Component Preinstallation Checklist Before installing components, be sure you have: o Backed up your system, as described in Section 2.1.4 o Registered your NAS packages' licenses, as described in Section 2.2 o Modified your system parameters and rebooted, as described in Section 2.5 o Printed and read the component installation guides, as described in Section 1.3.1 3.3 Component Installation Order and Dependencies See Table 3-1 for the installation order and dependencies for all the components provided through the NAS packages: o Component Name lists the components. You do not have to install the entire NAS packages collection. Those components you do install must be installed in the order shown. o PCSI Name or VMSINSTAL Save Set Name differentiates between components installed using VMSINSTAL and those Installing the NAS Packages Components 3-3 installed using the POLYCENTER Software Installation Utility (PCSI). o Use VMSINSTAL to install those components designated in the format component-id.%, where component-id is the component save set name. o Use PCSI to install those components designated in the format component-id/Version=version-number, where component-id is the PCSI name and version-number is the component version number. o Dependencies indicates component dependencies. These products must be installed on your system before you can install or run a specific component. Be sure to read the component installation guides before you install; they provide details on installation and configuration that are not described in this summary guide. ________________________ Note ________________________ You must install and license the OpenVMS VAX operating system before installing the NAS packages base kit or any of the NAS packages components. ______________________________________________________ Table_3-1_NAS_Packages_Installation_Order__________________ Component_Name__________________Comment____________________ Edit MODPARAMS.DAT as necessary, and reboot using AUTOGEN.

Perform the component installations using either the VMSINSTAL Utility, which is described in Section 2.4, or the POLYCENTER Software Installation (PCSI) Utility. Refer to the specific directions in each component installation guide. 2. Configure each component as required by the component installation guide. Following configuration, rerun the component Installation Verification Procedure (IVP) if required. For more details about postinstallation requirements, see Section 3.5. 3. Using the component order in Table 3-1, add the startup commands for the components you have installed to SYS$MANAGER:SYSTARTUP_VMS.COM. ________________________ Note ________________________ Any component installation that requires editing of the SYS$MANAGER:SYSTARTUP procedure should refer to SYS$MANAGER:SYSTARTUP_VMS.COM, not SYS$MANAGER:SYSTARTUP_V5.COM. ______________________________________________________ 4. Edit MODPARAMS.DAT as necessary, following the instructions in Section 2.5. 5. Reboot your system using AUTOGEN, as indicated in the component installation guides. 3.5 Postinstallation Considerations Each NAS packages' component has its own postinstallation requirements. Read the installation guide for each component you install to determine what postinstallation actions you need to take. Note whether you must reboot your system to complete the installation. 3-6 Installing the NAS Packages Components It is not required that you configure DECnet in order to install DECwindows Motif. If you decide to use DECwindows Motif in conjunction with DECnet, be sure to follow the postinstallation instructions in the DECwindows Motif Installation Guide. In some cases, an Installation Verification Procedure (IVP) might fail. Even though the IVP has failed, the product may have been installed successfully. Please consult your component installation guide for further information. Installing the NAS Packages Components 3-7 4 _________________________________________________________________ Upgrading NAS Packages Versions or Levels This chapter describes the following: o Installing NAS Packages Version 8.2 software on a system containing an earlier version of NAS packages software Section 4.1 o Installing a higher-level NAS packages license Section 4.2 o Installing a lower-level NAS packages license Section 4.3 o Installing NAS on an earlier version of OpenVMS Section 4.4 ________________________ Note ________________________ If you are performing more than one of the above listed actions, perform them in the order listed above. ______________________________________________________ 4.1 Installing a Higher Version of NAS Packages Software The following explains how to determine if it is necessary to replace your current Product Authorization Key (PAK) and how to do so. Check the current license status by entering the following command from the node you want to license: $ SHOW LICENSE NET-APP-SUP-* Upgrading NAS Packages Versions or Levels 4-1 If you see the message %SHOW-I-NOLICMATCH, no licenses match the search criteria; you need to install the new PAK. Register and load the new NAS packages license. See Section 2.2.2 for details. If the SHOW LICENSE command displays a license, compare the level of the new license to the level of the installed license: o If the new license level is lower than the installed license level, see Section 4.3. o If the new license level is the same, you do not need to install a new PAK. o If the new license level is higher, proceed to Section 4.2. 4.2 Installing a Higher Level of NAS Packages Software Higher level NAS packages provide additional software to support additional user needs. The steps involved in installing a higher NAS packages level are the same as they are for installing NAS Packages Version 8.2 for the first time: 1. Register and load the new NAS packages license (see Section 2.2.2). 2. Readjust your system parameters to reflect the requirements of the new NAS packages level you install (see Section A.1.3). 3. Run the NAS Reporter to see what is available. 4. Reinstall the NAS packages components (see Chapter 3). ________________________ Note ________________________ Remember an upgrade license (NAS 200 to NAS 300 for example), requires a return of the previous lower level license. You will not be allowed to use any duplicate licenses in this case. ______________________________________________________ 4-2 Upgrading NAS Packages Versions or Levels 4.3 Installing a Lower-Level NAS License Installing a new version of NAS packages with a lower-level NAS packages license is not recommended. If you attempt to install a lower-level NAS packages license and you remove the old license, NAS packages components that are part of the higher level may not run. 4.4 Installing NAS on an Earlier Version of OpenVMS If you plan to run NAS on an earlier version of the OpenVMS operating system, you may need an update to the LMF group table. An update patch kit may be obtained at http://www.service.digital.com. Search for the filename: VAXLMF03_061. Upgrading NAS Packages Versions or Levels 4-3 A _________________________________________________________________ Component Installation Prerequisites This appendix has two major sections: prerequisites common to all packages and package-specific prerequisites. A.1 Prerequisites Common to All Packages The prerequisites described in this section are common to all the NAS packages. See Section A.2 for specific values for prerequisites for each package. A.1.1 Privileges To install the NAS packages, you must be logged in to an account that has full system privileges. If you are installing a component using VMSINSTAL, note that VMSINSTAL turns off BYPASS privilege at the start of the installation. A.1.2 Required Disk Space and Installation Times The disk space requirements for the individual NAS packages components are shown in Section A.2, Table A-3. This table gives disk space requirements during and after installation, and also gives the approximate installation times for the separate components based on CD-ROM installatiions. In general, the times given are for the VMSINSTAL procedure or POLYCENTER Software Installation (PCSI) Utility only. They do not include the time required for pre- and post-installation tasks, or the time required for running the Installation Verification Procedures (IVPs). Component Installation Prerequisites A-1 A.1.3 System Parameter Requirements The following tables in Section A.2 give the system parameter values for each NAS package: NAS Client 150 Table A-4 NAS Base Server 200 Table A-5 NAS Client 250 Table A-6 NAS Server 300 Table A-7 NAS Production Table A-8 Server 400 The values given are for a fully installed configuration. (See Section 2.5.4 to fine tune system parameters for the particular work load needs of your system.) ________________________ Note ________________________ A system reboot is necessary to incorporate system parameter changes and should be done using AUTOGEN (see Section 2.5.4). ______________________________________________________ The values shown in the tables in Section A.2 are intended as a general guideline and should not be construed as absolutes. Each table reflects the values in the MODPARAMS_ NAS*.DAT file for a specific platform, as described in Section A.2. After the configuration you have installed has been running successfully for some period of time, you may want to change the values for parameters that are not being properly utilized. This is particularly relevant if you have not installed all of the NAS components or you are not using them simultaneously. Use AUTOGEN to size these values according to how you use the system. For DECnet, you must determine the values for SCSNODE, SCSSYSTEMID, and SYSMWCNT (see the PATHWORKS V5 for OpenVMS (LAN Manager) Server Installation and Upgrade Guide). For example: A-2 Component Installation Prerequisites SCSNODE = same as DECnet node name for the server SCSSYSTEMID = (1024x DECnet area number) + DECnet-VAX node number SYSMWCNT = current value of SYSMWCNT + (number of GBLPAGES being added / 128) Round SYSMWCNT up to the nearest integer. For example, if you are using GBLPAGES=55 000 to install PATHWORKS V5 for OpenVMS (LAN Manager), add an additional 429 to SYSMWCNT. If you are in a VAXcluster or VMScluster environment, SCSNODE and SCSSYSTEMID should already be appropriately set. If you must change SCSNODE to make it the same as the DECnet node name, you must also create a new queue file and redefine the queues. See the OpenVMS system management documentation for instructions on this procedure. A.1.4 Process Account Quotas The user account you use to install the NAS Packages must have sufficient process quotas to enable you to perform the installation. Section A.1.4 summarizes these minimum quotas. Table_A-1_NAS_Packages_Process_Account_Quotas______________ Quota_Name____________VAX_Value_____Alpha_Value____________ ASTLM 325 24 BIOLM 100 18 BYTLM 200 000 200 000 DIOLM 100 18 ENQLM 2 000 200 FILLM 300 100 JTQUOTA 4 096 PGFLQUOTA 32 000 (continued on next page) Component Installation Prerequisites A-3 Table_A-1_(Cont.)_NAS_Packages_Process_Account_Quotas______ Quota_Name____________VAX_Value_____Alpha_Value____________ PRCLM 10 3 TQELM 10 WSDEF 512 WSEXTENT 16 384 WSQUOTA_________________1_024______________________________ The file SYSUAF.DAT contains process quotas for users, including those for the installing account. Use the OpenVMS Authorize Utility (AUTHORIZE) to verify and change user account quotas. To verify and change user account quotas: 1. Set your default directory to SYS$SYSTEM. 2. Run AUTHORIZE by entering the following commands: $ SET DEFAULT SYS$SYSTEM $ RUN AUTHORIZE The screen displays the UAF> prompt. 3. Use the SHOW command with an account name to check that particular account. For example: UAF> SHOW SYSTEM 4. To change a quota, use the MODIFY command in the following format: MODIFY account-name /quota-name=nnn The following example changes the BYTLM quota for the SYSTEM account: UAF> MODIFY SYSTEM/BYTLM=64000 5. To exit from the utility, enter EXIT at the UAF> prompt. After you exit from the utility, the system displays messages indicating whether or not changes were made. 6. After the changes have been made, you must log out and log in again for the new quotas to take effect. A-4 Component Installation Prerequisites For more information on modifying account quotas, see the OpenVMS System Management Utilities Reference Manual.

If your problem is not resolved by this means, do one of the following: o If you have a BASIC or DECsupport Software Agreement, call your Customer Support Center. o If you have a Self-Maintenance Software Agreement, submit a Software Performance Report (SPR). o If neither of the above statements describes your situation and you are under warranty, submit an SPR. In your call or SPR, please note which NAS packages component you are having a problem with. Component Installation Prerequisites A-5 A.2 Package-Specific Prerequisites This section provides tables for each of the NAS packages, describing the installation times and disk space required for each component, and the SYSGEN parameters required to run the package if all components are installed.
