Installation and Upgrade Guide

NOTE: Beginning with OpenVMS Version 8.3, DECwindows client files are made available
through the DWMOTIF_SUPPORT kit. (Prior to Version 8.3, the client files were included directly
with the OpenVMS operating system kit.) The OpenVMS installation procedure installs this kit
automatically. The DWMOTIF_SUPPORT kit name is listed during the installation.
Required versions of some of the windowing and networking products might already be installed
on the system. If so, you will see a message to this effect, as seen for most of the products in the
previous example. For some of the windowing and networking products, earlier versions might
be installed that still work on OpenVMS Version 8.3-1H1. In this case, you will see a message
indicating the software is already installed and asking whether you want to install the newer
version. You can keep the currently installed version or upgrade to the newer version supplied
with OpenVMS Version 8.3-1H1. If you choose to keep the currently installed version, you should
verify what level of support for this version is available from HP.
Some windowing and networking products might have versions installed that do not work on
OpenVMS Version 8.3-1H1. In this case, you are not given a choice to upgrade—the software is
upgraded automatically.
NOTE: For support of Instant Capacity (iCAP) and Pay per use (PPU) functionality (supported
on cell-based Integrity servers), and for support of such products as gWLM and HP SIM, install
TCP/IP Services for OpenVMS. When you provision OpenVMS on Integrity servers, TCP/IP
Services for OpenVMS is installed automatically.
6.4 Completing the Upgrade
The following sections describe the remaining steps that you need to perform to complete the
upgrade.

The installation operation can provide brief or detailed descriptions.
In either case, you can request the detailed descriptions by typing ?.
Do you always want detailed descriptions? (Yes/No) [No]
If you answer YES, the procedure displays additional explanatory text with each prompt.
6.4.2 Removing Older Versions of ENCRYPT
Beginning with OpenVMS Version 8.3, Encryption for OpenVMS is included with the operating
system. If an older version of ENCRYPT (HP I64VMS ENCRYPT) is found on your system, the
upgrade procedure removes the product. Confirmation of the removal of the ENCRYPT product
is displayed, as in the following example:
HP I64VMS ENCRYPT will now be removed.
This is required because OpenVMS now includes ENCRYPT.
