Installing and Configuring the HSG Agent
116 HSG80 ACS Solution Software V8.8 for OpenVMS Installation and Configuration Guide
Before Installing the Agent
The Agent requires the minimum system requirements, as defined in the release
notes for your operating system. The program is designed to operate with the
Client version 2.5 on Windows 2000, Windows NT, or Windows Server 2003
(32-bit). Verify that your system meets the minimum requirements by completing
the following steps.
1. Verify that you have one of the following:
— TCP/IP Services for OpenVMS (version 5.0 or later) with FTP and Telnet
utilities enabled
— TCPware (refer TCPware web site for the latest version)
— MultiNet TCP/IP for OpenVMS (version 4.0 or later)
2. Your OpenVMS host’s resources must meet the minimum requirements
specified in Table 2, Minimum System Requirements, of your Release Notes.
3. Remove previous versions of the Agent from your computer.
If you are removing the Agent version 1.1b, delete the file,
change_register.com, from the SYS$SYSDEVICE:[SWCC$AGENT] directory.
4. Read the release notes that are in the file, HSG80VMS.TXT.
5. If you have OpenVMS version 7.2-1 on an Alpha computer with MultiNet
and/or TCPware TCP/IP stacks, you must install the security patch from the
Process Software web site at
http://www.process.com .
Options for Running the Agent
Agent runs as an OpenVMS process called “SWCC_AGENT.” You can use the
Agent configuration program to control the execution of this process. You can:
■ Immediately start or stop your Agent.
■ Start your Agent automatically each time the host is started (This is the only
mode available for TCPware and MultiNet).
■ Start your Agent as an auxiliary service of TCP/IP Services for OpenVMS
(default). It starts Agent on demand.
