The server VMSINSTAL installation utility will detect if any of these
conditions exist, and if the images or files are found, it will notify
you. The VMSINSTAL installation utility automatically deletes, without
notification, any files from a PATHWORKS Advanced Server or Advanced Server for OpenVMS kit found
in the SYS$SPECIFIC directory tree.
1.9.15 Step 15: Check OpenVMS Cluster Configuration
You can run the Advanced Server on multiple OpenVMS Cluster members. To do so, follow these steps:
$ DEASSIGN/SYSTEM PWRK$REBOOT_REQUIRED |
To install PATHWORKS Advanced Server, proceed to Chapter 2, Installing the PATHWORKS Advanced Server.
This chapter describes how to install the PATHWORKS for OpenVMS (Advanced Server) software. You must follow these procedures regardless of whether you are upgrading from a previous version of the server or installing the server for the first time.
Before you begin the installation procedure, make sure that you have completed the preinstallation tasks listed in Chapter 1, Before You Install PATHWORKS Advanced Server.
This chapter consists of the following sections:
The following sections describe the installation procedure and what it
does.
2.1.1 What is VMSINSTAL?
VMSINSTAL is the standard command procedure for installing software on
the OpenVMS operating system. VMSINSTAL consists of a series of
questions (prompts). Your answers to these questions provide VMSINSTAL
with the information needed for installing PATHWORKS Advanced Server.
2.1.2 PATHWORKS Advanced Server Installation Kit
The VMSINSTAL installation kit includes several OpenVMS BACKUP save
sets. The save set PWRK061.A always contains the file KITINSTAL.COM and
the release notes. The savesets included in the software kit are listed
in the product release notes.
2.1.3 What VMSINSTAL Does
When you use VMSINSTAL, it:
The following sections describe how to prepare information required
during the installation procedure, and how to specify the required
information during the procedure.
2.2.1 Before You Start VMSINSTAL
Before you start the VMSINSTAL command procedure, be prepared to answer the following questions. The questions that VMSINSTAL asks depend on the software environment and options you select.
| Condition | Default Displayed |
|---|---|
| You are installing PATHWORKS Advanced Server for the first time | The first available unused UIC group number, starting with 360 |
| PATHWORKS (LAN Manager) is currently installed, an account named PCFS$ACCOUNT already exists | The same group number as that associated with the existing account PCFS$ACCOUNT |
| The file and print server accounts already exist | The same group number as the existing accounts |
An asterisk (*) at the beginning of a line in the installation procedure identifies a prompt to which you must respond.
Usually the prompt has a default answer, which the procedure displays in square brackets ([]) at the end of the question.
To accept a default, press Return. For example:
* Is the selection correct [YES]? [Return] |
When you have completed the recommended preinstallation tasks outlined in Chapter 1, Before You Install PATHWORKS Advanced Server, and have read the release notes, you are ready to use the VMSINSTAL installation procedure to install the PATHWORKS Advanced Server. To start VMSINSTAL:

In Example 2-1, Sample Installation Procedure---Part 1, the installer specifies the source device SYS$DEVICE:[KITS.PWRK] for the installation kit.
The first part of the installation script indicates that certain processes are already running and gives you the option of continuing or stopping the procedure. In this example, the processes listed are part of the Compaq TCP/IP Services for OpenVMS software running on the system.
If you continue (respond YES to the prompt), the procedure asks if you are satisfied with the backup (backup of the system is recommended prior to installing the server), and then identifies the product being installed.
| Example 2-2 Sample Installation Procedure---Part 2 |

NOTE
----
Because this kit provides a new streams execlet for NetBEUI and
TCP/IP, you MUST reboot the system to complete installation of
PATHWORKS. If you do not reboot the system at this time, you must
remember to reboot later before starting PATHWORKS.
To complete the installation of this product, you should reboot
the system. If it is not convenient to reboot at this time, then
enter NO to the following question.
If you enter NO, the installation procedure will continue.
* Will you allow a system shutdown after this product is installed
[YES]? [Return]
* How many minutes for system shutdown [0]: [Return]
* Do you want to do an automatic system reboot [YES]? [Return]
* Do you want to run the IVP after the installation is finished [YES]?

In Example 2-3, Sample Installation Procedure---Part 3, the installation procedure checks that the OpenVMS system for installation of the server is OpenVMS Version 6.2 or later. If it is an earlier version, the installation would abort.
The installation procedure then checks for circumstances requiring a system reboot. A reboot might be needed if:
If a Compaq OpenVMS file and print server has been installed and started previously, certain images remain in system memory even after the product has been stopped or removed. As a result, before the Advanced Server can be started, you need to reboot the system to remove the old image from memory.
To help minimize downtime, the installation procedure requests a reboot only if and when necessary. You are not forced to reboot after installation.
In Example 2-3, Sample Installation Procedure---Part 3, software from an earlier version of PATHWORKS for OpenVMS was detected (such as an earlier version of the PWRK$STREAMSOS_Vn.EXE execlet; note that the version, n, corresponds to the version of OpenVMS, not of PATHWORKS). A reboot is necessary unless you do not plan to run the Advanced Server on this system.
The installation procedure gives you the option of delaying the reboot by continuing the procedure. You might want to delay the reboot so that you can complete installation or configuration processes that would be expedient to finish before rebooting. For example, when installing the server on an OpenVMS Cluster, you might want to delay a reboot until you complete the server installation and configuration on all nodes of the cluster.
To delay the reboot, continuing the installation, enter NO at the prompt asking if you will allow a system shutdown after the product is installed. In this example, the reboot is opted for, and then the procedure prompts the installer for the number of minutes to elapse before the shutdown occurs.
The installer is also prompted whether an automatic system reboot is requested, whether the installation verification procedure should be run after the installation, and whether to purge files replaced by this installation or keep previous versions intact. The installation verification procedure (IVP) can be run automatically, as shown in Example 2-5, Sample Installation Procedure---Part 5, or independently of the installation procedure, as described in Section 5.2, Verifying the PATHWORKS for OpenVMS (Advanced Server) Installation.

User Accounts and User Identification Codes (UICs)
--------------------------------------------------
PATHWORKS for OpenVMS creates two OpenVMS accounts: a default account,
PWRK$DEFAULT, and a guest account, PWRK$GUEST. The default UIC group
number for both these new accounts depends on the following:
o If you are installing the server for the first time, the default is
the first unused UIC group number, starting with 360.
o If there is an existing account PCFS$ACCOUNT, the default is the UIC
group number associated with PCFS$ACCOUNT.
o If there is an existing account PWRK$DEFAULT or PWRK$GUEST, the
default is the UIC group number associated with PWRK$DEFAULT or
PWRK$GUEST, in preference to PCFS$ACCOUNT. However, the default
UIC group number will
not be used to change the UIC of any existing accounts.
For more information about UIC group numbers, see the OpenVMS System
Manager's Manual.
* Enter default UIC group number for PWRK$DEFAULT and PWRK$GUEST [360]:
[Return]
All questions have been answered. The installation of
PATHWORKS for OpenVMS will continue.
