Installation and Upgrade Guide

If you installed DECnet Phase IV, see the DECnet for OpenVMS Guide to Networking manual for
information about configuring this software using the NETCONFIG command procedure.
Once you have configured DECnet Phase IV, edit
SYS$COMMON:[SYSMGR]SYSTARTUP_VMS.COM so that the software starts when the system
reboots. (This step is not required if you are running DECnet Phase V.) You can have the software
start interactively or in batch mode by making one of the following changes:
Interactive mode:
Before:
$!$ START/NETWORK DECNET
After:
$ START/NETWORK DECNET
Batch mode:
Before:
$!$ SUBMIT SYS$MANAGER:STARTNET.COM
After:
$ SUBMIT SYS$MANAGER:STARTNET.COM
IMPORTANT: If you intend to run both DECnet Phase IV and a TCP product, DECnet must
start first. In this case, HP recommends starting DECnet using interactive mode.
For information about editing STARTUP-VMS.COM, see Section 7.16 (page 143).
7.7.5 Configuring HP TCP/IP Services for OpenVMS
If you plan to run TCP/IP Services for OpenVMS software, note the following:
• Configure your system for networking by executing the interactive command procedure
SYS$MANAGER:TCPIP$CONFIG.COM. Be sure to consult the HP TCP/IP Services for
OpenVMS Installation and Configuration manual for specifics about configuring TCP/IP Services
for OpenVMS and for configuring IPv6 support.
• After completing the configuration, edit the command pertaining to TCP/IP Services for
OpenVMS in SYS$COMMON:[SYSMGR]SYSTARTUP_VMS.COM (as instructed in
Section 7.16 (page 143)) so that the TCP/IP Services software starts automatically when your
system is rebooted.
IMPORTANT: Do not configure TCP/IP Services for OpenVMS without first starting the queue
manager.
7.7.6 Installing and Configuring Third-Party Networking Software
You need networking software to download patches and as a requirement for certain layered
products. If you are using neither DECnet nor TCP/IP Services for OpenVMS, you should install
and configure third-party networking software now. See the appropriate vendor’s product
documentation.
7.8 Initializing or Configuring Other Installed Components
Initialize or configure any of the following products as necessary, following the instructions in
the sections indicated:
• CDSA (Section 7.8.1 (page 123))
• Availability Manager (Section 7.8.2 (page 124))
• Kerberos (Section 7.8.3 (page 125))
• SSL for OpenVMS (Section 7.8.4 (page 126))
