Section 3 F Installing SYBASE Software

Installing and Upgrading ENVOX

Configuration Software on DEC VAX and DEC AXP Systems (Revision B — May 1998)

Step 8: For menu item 3), answer Y to place the list of recommended

sysgen parameters detailed in

sys$manager:sybase_vms_resources.dat into

sys$system:fisher_sybase_modparams.dat. When the sysgen

parameters are located in this file, the system is set to the

parameters whenever Autogen is executed by the system

manager.

Step 9: For menu item 4), enter the UIC code for the SYBASE

account. The UIC code must be unique and of the form,

group, member, where group and member are OCTAL

numeric numbers in the range: group = [0 to 3776] and

member = [0 to177776]. A UIC default value of 17,1010 is

recommended and places the SYBASE account in the same

group as the CHIP account.

Step 10: For menu item 5), enter the number of users expected to be

logged on through the ENVOX forms to the SYBASE SQL

server. Additional users reduce system performance. Do not

specify more users than are needed. Refer to section 10 for

system tuning instructions.

Step 11: For menu item 6), enter a valid terminal device to define the

logical name SYBASE_PRINTER which is used by SYBASE

for screen dumps from character terminals. Leave this field

blank if you do not require this feature. (An example name is

TTA3).

Step 12: For menu item 7), enter the DECnet object number for the

SYBASE Query Object used b y the SQL server. The number

entered must be in the range: [128 to 253]. A default value of

200 is recommended.

When the SQL server starts up, it expects to use two

sequential object numbers, starting with the object number

specified. The first number is used by front end products to

request a connection to the SQL server and the second is

used by the SYBASE console program to connect the SQL

server to dump and load databases.

Step 13: For menu item 8), enter a TCP/IP port number between 1025

and 65535 for the SYBASE query object. Leave this field

blank if you do not require SYBASE to use the TCP/IP

transport.

CDOS requires TCP/IP software to be installed and the

SYBASE server updated to allow TCP/IP entry. If you plan on

installing CDOS and you have TCP/IP software installed, then

enter a port number. If you plan on installing CDOS but have

not yet installed TCP/IP software, then leave this field blank.
