hp DECprint Supervisor (DCPS) for hp OpenVMS
Software Installation Guide
Previous Contents Index 


During this installation, new files will be provided to replace 
existing versions.  You may purge these older versions to save disk 
space, or keep them if you feel they may be of use.  Purging is 
recommended.

  • Define DCPS$LAYUP.
    Next, the installation procedure looks for a definition of the logical name DCPS$LAYUP in the system table in executive mode.
  • Create directories.
    VMSINSTAL then attempts to create several directories. If they already exist, it displays additional messages indicating this: 


    %VMSINSTAL-I-SYSDIR, This product creates system disk directory 
     VMI$ROOT:[SYSTEST.DCPS]. 
%CREATE-I-EXISTS, VMI$ROOT:[SYSTEST.DCPS] already exists 
%VMSINSTAL-I-SYSDIR, This product creates system disk directory 
     VMI$ROOT:[SYSHLP.EXAMPLES.DCPS]. 
%CREATE-I-EXISTS, VMI$ROOT:[SYSHLP.EXAMPLES.DCPS] already exists 
%VMSINSTAL-I-SYSDIR, This product creates system disk directory 
     VMI$ROOT:[SYSHLP.EXAMPLES.DCPS.NETPRINT]. 
%CREATE-I-EXISTS, VMI$ROOT:[SYSHLP.EXAMPLES.DCPS.NETPRINT] already exists

  • Make sure the queue manager is running.
    VMSINSTAL checks to see if the queue manager is running on your system.
    If the queue manager is not present, the Installation Verification Procedure (IVP) does not run, and the following messages are displayed on your screen: 


    %DCPSppp-I-NOQUEMGR, System queue manager is not running
-DCPSppp-I-NOQUEMGR, IVP will NOT run.  Installation continuing ...

    The queue manager must be running if you want the installation to run the IVP.

  • Stop queues.
    At this point, VMSINSTAL displays the following message on your screen: 


    %DCPSppp-I-NOQUEST, No further questions will be asked.

    VMSINSTAL stops active DCPS queues, if any and if desired. 


    %DCPSppp-I-STOPQUEUES, Stopping queues previously reported as active.

  • Restore the remaining save sets. As it restores each save set, VMSINSTAL reports on its progress: 


    VMSINSTAL-I-RESTORE, Restoring product saveset B ...
VMSINSTAL-I-RESTORE, Restoring product saveset C ...

    This operation may require up to 10 minutes to complete.
    When all the save sets have been restored, VMSINSTAL instructs you to perform postinstallation procedures. Refer to the System Manager's GuideSystem Manager's Guide for full instructions.
    Next, VMSINSTAL moves the files from the temporary locations used during installation to their permanent directories. 


    %VMSINSTAL-I-MOVEFILES, Files will now be moved to their target 
directories...

  • Verify a successful software loading procedure.
    The IVP verifies that the software was loaded properly. If the system queue manager is running, the IVP runs automatically and VMSINSTAL performs the following:
    1. Creates a temporary print queue
    2. Queues the test files in [SYSTEST.DCPS] to the temporary print queue DCPS$IVP_TEST
    3. Displays messages similar to the following: 


    Job DCPS$IVP_POST (queue DCPS$IVP_TEST, entry 43) started on DCPS$IVP_TEST 
%DCPS-I-JOBSTART, Job DCPS$IVP_POST (queue DCPS$IVP_TEST, entry 43)

      started on DCPS$IVP_TEST 
 
Job DCPS$IVP_LIST (queue DCPS$IVP_TEST, entry 49) completed

    Note
    The IVP does not produce any hardcopy output.

    The IVP procedure automatically deletes the temporary queue when the IVP completes. You can print the IVP test files to a real printer later. (Refer to the System Manager's GuideSystem Manager's Guide.)
    You can also manually invoke the IVP after the installation by entering: 


    $ @SYS$TEST:DCPS$IVP

    VMSINSTAL issues an informational message when the IVP is completed: 


            IVP successful for OpenVMS DECprint Supervisor Software

  • Restart queues.
    VMSINSTAL restarts previously stopped queues if the installation is successful and issues its final messages: 


    %DCPSppp-I-STARTQUEUES, Restarting queues previously reported as active. 
 
        Installation of DCPSppp Vn.n completed at 14:04

  • Where to go from here.
    Refer to the System Manager's GuideSystem Manager's Guide for instructions on how to create print queues and customize your printing environment.

    Appendix A
    Sample Installation Sessions

    This appendix shows sample installations of the DECprint Supervisor software on both OpenVMS Alpha and VAX systems, with and without the DCPS software already present on the system.

    Example A-1 shows a sample of an initial installation of the DECprint Supervisor software on an OpenVMS Alpha system. Example A-2 shows a sample upgrade of the DECprint Supervisor software on an OpenVMS VAX system.

        Starting with DCPS V2.0, the need for DCPS-OPEN and DCPS-PLUS 
        licenses has been eliminated.  The right to use all features of 
        DCPS is now included with the OpenVMS operating system license. 
 
        Please remember to copy SYS$STARTUP:DCPS$STARTUP.TEMPLATE to 
        SYS$STARTUP:DCPS$STARTUP.COM.  Then edit the resulting copy, 
        following the instructions contained within it, to define 
        your DCPS environment and queue characteristics.  When done, 
        execute the file to establish and start the DCPS queues. 
        Also remember to edit SYS$MANAGER:SYSTARTUP_VMS.COM so that 
        DCPS$STARTUP.COM is automatically run at system startup time. 
 
        DCPS$STARTUP.COM should be executed after all printer devices 
        and interconnects are running.  Below is a summary list: 
 
          printers via TCP/IP:      after TCP is started 
          printers via LAT:         after LAT devices are created

        the utility SYS$STARTUP:CPS_TO_DCPS_STARTUP.COM instead of 
        editing the startup template.  This utility will read your 
        CPS startup file, change the queue definitions to use DCPS$SMB

        startup file.
