HP Advanced Server V7.3B for OpenVMS and HP PATHWORKS V6.1 for OpenVMS (Advanced Server)

HP PATHWORKS V6.1 for OpenVMS (Advanced Server)
Installation Utilities
PATHWORKS Advanced Server is installed on OpenVMS systems using the standard
VMSINSTAL procedure. An Installation Verification Procedure (IVP) is also included, which can
be used to confirm that the server software has been installed properly.
The installation procedure allows you to install PATHWORKS Advanced Server with the
integrated License Server or just the standalone License Server, the external authentication
images (except on OpenVMS V6.2), or the Upgrade utility.
PATHWORKS NetWare Server
The PATHWORKS for OpenVMS (NetWare) server software has been retired. This product is
no longer supported, and licenses to use this product are no longer sold.
If you are running the PATHWORKS for OpenVMS (NetWare) server on the same system
with PATHWORKS Advanced Server, you must remove the NetWare server software from the
system before you install PATHWORKS Advanced Server.
License Management
PATHWORKS Advanced Server offers license management for Client Access licenses, which
can be used in either client-based or server-based mode. (For details, see the section
SOFTWARE LICENSING.)
The license deliverables for PATHWORKS products are Product Authorization Keys (PAKs) that
are then used with the OpenVMS License Management Facility (LMF). These PAKs must be
loaded into an LMF database, using standard LMF procedures, on an OpenVMS system that is
hosting a PATHWORKS Advanced Server or a PATHWORKS License Server.
The two types of license management are:
• Client-based license management. PATHWORKS Advanced Server provides a facility
called PATHWORKS License Server that acts as a proxy for client systems that require
license keys stored in the LMF database on an OpenVMS system.
A single copy of the PATHWORKS License Server software provides and verifies Client
Access licenses being used in client-based mode by clients running LAN Manager protocols.
The PATHWORKS License Manager, which must be run on the same node as the License
Server, provides a user interface that allows the administrator to monitor client-based license
usage, to manage license groups, to set alert levels, to set logging levels for licensing
events, to enable or disable the License Server, and to revoke assigned licenses. The
PATHWORKS License Manager is also used to preallocate licenses to specific ‘‘groups’’
(including the special, predefined server-based group described later).
Each LAN needs only one active PATHWORKS License Server. (The License Server
provided with PATHWORKS Advanced Server supports Client Access licenses for all
supported clients.)
The PATHWORKS License Registrar, which must be run on the same system as the file
server, verifies the licenses for clients requesting access to the server functions. Clients
that can produce a valid Client Access license are allowed access to the services offered
by the PATHWORKS Advanced Server.
