Installing TCP/IP Services
2.1 Invoking the Installation Procedure
$ SET HOST 0/LOG=file-specification
In this command, file-specification is the name of the file to which you want
the log written. The log file is written to the current directory.
6. Start the POLYCENTER Software Installation utility by entering the
PRODUCT INSTALL command with the directory path appropriate for your
system. For example:
$ PRODUCT INSTALL TCPIP /SOURCE=directory-path
In this command, directory-path specifies the disk and directory name
for the source drive that holds the TCP/IP Services kit. For example,
/SOURCE=DKA400:[TCPIPAXP053].
If you do not specify the source qualifier, the POLYCENTER Software
Installation utility searches the location defined by the logical name
PCSI$SOURCE. If not defined, the utility searches the current default
directory.
2.2 Stepping Through the Installation Procedure
After you invoke the installation procedure, you are prompted for information.
Example 2–1 shows a sample installation on an OpenVMS Alpha system that
has an earlier version of TCP/IP Services installed on it. Additional explanatory
information follows each portion of the script. For a sample installation on a
system on which the product has never been installed, see Appendix A.
The actual installation output that is displayed on your system might vary,
depending on your current configuration.
Note
To stop the installation at any time, press Ctrl/Y. The installation
procedure deletes any files that were created, then exits.
The symbols xx in the following example and elsewhere in this document
