Installing and Upgrading ENVOX

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

To run the PDX utility to load from tape, log into the ENVOX

account and type the follo wing at the command line:

$ mcr envox$application:pdx fd tape:filename “SERVERNAME” “DBNAME”

“sapasswd”

Example Command

Fill in your tape:filename (for example, MKA100:envoxdb.pdx), server

name, database name, and SA password.

The following example transfers the file contents of tran1.pdx held on the

tape device mka500: to the database ENVOXDB held on the SYBASE

SQL server. The sa password is database.

$ mcr envox$application:pdx fd mka500:tran1.pdx ”SYBASE” ”ENVOXDB”

”database”

If the original database has a NULL password, it is changed by

the system to password after the PDX dump and load process

is complete.

Also, all users are cleared from the target database before

loading. So, if a user is not recorded in the PDX files, the user

will not exist in the target database after the PDX load.

However, users are logged into the master database when they

logintoENVOXforms.
