❑ The load host has at least 4000 blocks of available disk space
(on any disk), and up to an additional 17,000 blocks available
(depending on the amount of memory installed in the
Annex) if dumps are to be supported.
In a VMS environment, dumps do not overwrite
each other, as VMS allows multiple versions of
the same file. Therefore, up to 17,000 blocks of
memory must be available for each Remote
Annex 4000 dump.
❑ The system is backed up before installing the software.
❑ The software medium is mounted on an appropriate device
drive, unless you are installing from save sets copied from
another load host.
