Preparing Your System
4.3 Preparing to Run HPINSTAL
4.3 Preparing to Run HPINSTAL
This section lists procedures for preparing to use the CD-ROM update and add-on tool,
HPINSTAL. Refer to Appendix E , “CD-ROM Resources,” for additional CD-ROM set up
information.
To prepare your local system to create a CSLT using HPINSTAL:
1. Log on.
:HELLO MANAGER.SYS,INSTALL;HIPRI
If you are not working at the console, allow yourself the VSCLOSE and VSOPEN
commands.
:ALLOW MANAGER.SYS;COMMANDS=VSCLOSE,VSOPEN
2. Start the LP and
streams_device
.
:SPOOLER LP;START
:STREAMS
streams_device
An LP device must be configured in SYSGEN. A common
streams_device
value is 10.
Already spooled and streamed messages might display.
3. Load the CD-ROM disk labelled MPE
_v.uu.ff_1 into the CD-ROM disk drive
.
v.uu.ff
is the
version.update.fix
level of the software. Write the
v.uu.ff
level on
the checklist.
HPINSTAL prompts for the second disk when required.
4. If you have SCSI CD-ROM drives, manually mount the disk.
:AVRSCSI “MOUNT
ldev
#”
where
ldev#
is the logical device number of the SCSI CD-ROM disk drive.
When the CD-ROM disk is loaded, AVRSCSI returns the message:
Successfully mounted LDEV
n
5. Verify that the CD-ROM drive status indicates MASTER-RO.
:DSTAT
This is a sample DSTAT response:
LDEV-TYPE STATUS VOLUME (VOLUME SET - GEN)
11-CD-ROM MASTER-RO HPINSTAL (MPE_C.55.00_1-0)
12-CD-ROM MASTER-RO HPINSTAL (MPE_C.55.00_2-0)
6. If the DSTAT status shows LONER, put the CD-ROM disks on-line.
:VSOPEN
MPE_v.uu.ff_1
:VSOPEN
MPE_v.uu.ff_2
If you have only one CD-ROM drive, put only the first CD-ROM disk on-line now.
Run the DSTAT command again to verify the drives have a status of MASTER-RO.
7. Create directory entries to enable access to group INSTUTIL on volume set
