To install the Motif sample files on the Tru64 UNIX system, perform the following steps:
> mkdir avertz > cd avertz |
> cp e:\dunix\du_avertz.tar . |
> tar xvf du_avertz.tar . . . |
The sample makefile and executables for Motif on Tru64 UNIX use
TCP/IP as the default transport. If you have changed the client
services library to use DECnet, you must relink the sample application
before you run it.
6.4.2 Verifying the Motif Sample Installation on Tru64 UNIX Platforms
Compile, link, and run the source code for the sample client program to verify your capability to build applications. To build the sample application, follow these steps:
> make |
> m_avertz |
The m_avertz application displays the menu bar of the AVERTZ Car Reservation System. If you want the sample desktop client program to communicate with the ACMS application, follow the procedures in Section 6.3.3 to set up the sample application on the ACMS system. After you set up the ACMS system, use the Session menu to sign in to the ACMS system. After you sign in, you can use the Rental menu to run the reserve task of the AVERTZ application.
The installation procedure is now complete and verified.
This chapter describes the installation of the TP Desktop Connector client services and samples for Apple Macintosh clients.
After you install the TP Desktop Connector gateway for ACMS software on the Compaq
OpenVMS system, you can install the TP Desktop Connector client services
software on individual desktop systems.
7.1 Macintosh Installation Options
You can choose any of several installation options depending on the type of services you want to install on the target Macintosh:
This section describes the preparations and requirements for installing
the TP Desktop Connector client services software for Macintosh systems.
7.2.1 Prerequisite Software for Macintosh Systems

System Services and Calypso | 308K bytes |
Examples | 2612K bytes |
System Services, Calypso, and Examples | 2920K bytes |
This section describes how to install the TP Desktop Connector client services
software for Macintosh on a Macintosh system.
7.3.1 Copying the TP Desktop Connector Installer to the Macintosh
All the files that comprise the TP Desktop Connector Macintosh client software are compacted into a single installation file, ACMSDI_DESKTOP.INSTALLER. The installation procedure consists of the following steps:
The files on the TPware Product Suite and Software Products Library CDs are in MacBinary format. Many file transfer facilities such as NetCopy and MacTerminal automatically convert files from MacBinary to standard Macintosh format as part of the copy operation. If your file transfer utility does not automatically do so, use a tool such as MacBinary Converter (mBin) to convert the ACMSDI_DESKTOP.INSTALLER to standard Macintosh format after you copy it.
After you have successfully copied the ACMSDI_DESKTOP.INSTALLER file to your
Macintosh, proceed to Section 7.3.2.
7.3.2 Running the TP Desktop Connector Macintosh Installer
The ACMSDI_DESKTOP.INSTALLER file is a self-extracting file containing all the TP Desktop Connector Macintosh client services files in compressed form. During installation, files are automatically moved to the appropriate folders. The installation process provides instructions with each step:
This part covers the server-side software and samples, but not the client-side software and samples. For installations using the Software Products Library CD, see Part 1. For installations using the TPware Product Suite CD, see Part 2.
This chapter discusses the preparations and requirements necessary for installing Compaq TP Desktop Connector gateway for ACMS software. Your bill of materials (BOM) and indented bills report (BIL) specify the number and contents of your media. Be sure to verify the contents of your kit with this information. If your kit is damaged or incomplete, contact your Compaq representative.
The gateway software includes online Release Notes and gives you
the option of printing or displaying them during the installation
procedure. Compaq strongly recommends that you read the Release Notes
before proceeding with the installation, in case they contain important
information regarding the installation procedure.
8.1 Required Operating System Components
To install gateway software, you must have one of the following
operating systems installed:
OpenVMS VAX operating system
OpenVMS Alpha operating system
The Software Product Description (SPD), a copy of which is included in
the product kit, contains a list of the prerequisite software, and a
complete list of the products that are compatible with this version of
gateway software.
8.3 Installation Procedure Requirements
The installation procedure, VMSINSTAL, checks for various conditions on your system. If VMSINSTAL detects any problems during the installation, it notifies you of the problem and asks whether you want to continue the installation. In some instances, you can answer YES to continue. To stop the installation process and correct the situation, answer NO or press [Return] .
You can avoid having to stop and restart VMSINSTAL by following the
directions in this section before you run VMSINSTAL.
The time required for installing gateway software is
approximately five minutes.
8.3.1 Disk Space
Installing gateway software requires a certain amount of free storage space during the installation. Table 8-1 summarizes the storage requirements for gateway software during and after installation.
Blocks During Installation |
Blocks After Installation |
|
---|---|---|
Gateway | 23 304 | 6 500 |
To determine the number of free disk blocks on the current system disk, enter the following command at the DCL prompt:
$ SHOW DEVICE SYS$SYSDEVICE |
In the output column under the heading Free
Blocks is the number of 512-byte blocks available on the
device.
8.3.2 Privileges and Authorization
To install gateway software, you must be logged in to an account with the following privileges:
The SYSTEM account has all the privileges you require for the installation.
VMSINSTAL turns off the BYPASS privilege at the start of the installation and sets whatever privileges it needs during the installation.
At the end of the installation procedure, if the gateway system components were installed, the gateway process on OpenVMS is started using the same user name that you use to install the product. Compaq recommends that you run the gateway under the user name SYSTEM or another user name with a [1,4] UIC.
For the gateway process to be properly started, the user name under which the installation is done must be an authorized ACMS agent. Use the ACMSUDU Utility to authorize the user name. For example:
$ SET DEFAULT SYS$SYSTEM $ RUN ACMSUDU UDU> ADD SYSTEM/AGENT UDU> |
If the user name is not authorized as a ACMS agent, the IVP
can fail and TP Desktop Connector client programs cannot sign in to the
ACMS system. To allow client programs to successfully sign in
to the ACMS system, stop the gateway, and restart it
under a user name that is an authorized ACMS agent.
8.3.3 OpenVMS License Management Facility
The gateway supports the OpenVMS License Management Facility (LMF). To install gateway software on an OpenVMS system, you must register your software license.
LMF requires registration of a Product Authorization Key (PAK). The license registration information you need is contained in the PAK that is shipped with gateway software. The PAK is a paper certificate that contains information about the license you have to run a particular piece of software.
Register your gateway license before you perform the installation. During the installation, you are asked whether you have registered the gateway license and loaded the appropriate authorization key. You cannot run either the gateway software or its IVP unless your license is loaded. After you perform the license registration and load an authorization key, you can run the IVP and use the gateway software.
To register a license, first log in to the system manager account, SYSTEM. You then have a choice of two ways to register:
For complete information on using LMF, see VMS License Management Utility Manual.
8.3.4 System Disk Backup
At the beginning of the installation, VMSINSTAL asks whether your system disk is backed up. Compaq recommends that you always do a system disk backup before installing new software on the operating system.
Use the backup procedures that are established at your site to do this
backup. For details on performing a system disk backup, see the section
on the Backup Utility in the OpenVMS documentation set.
8.3.5 Stopping the ACMS System and Gateway
If you have TPware components already installed and running, shut them down. While logged in to the system under an account having the appropriate privileges as described in Section 8.3.2, execute the following commands.
$ @SYS$STARTUP:ACMSDI$SHUTDOWN $ |
$ ACMS/STOP SYSTEM . . . $ |
$ @SYS$STARTUP:ACMSTOP . . . $ |
If you have not already inserted the compact disk (CD) media in the CD drive, do so now.
To obtain the directory location of the saveset for the gateway software on the CD-ROM, refer to the OpenVMS Layered Products Compact Disc User's Guide, or, before starting the installation, complete these steps:
SHOW DEVICE device-name |
MOUNT/OVERRIDE=ID device-name |
For example:
$ MOUNT/OVERRIDE=ID DKA200: |
OpenVMS Platform | Directory Name |
---|---|
Alpha | VMSALPHA |
VAX | VMSVAX |
DIRECTORY device-name:ACMSDIA031 |
