Install guide
prompt> cd $OWHOME/WebApps/conf
prompt> cp vip_projdirs.dat.default vip_projdirs.dat
prompt> vi vip_projdirs.dat
…add parent directories of VIP VBDs, e.g.:
#########################################################################
#
# This file contains a list of project directories for VIP.
# File format:
# - directory (required)
# - district (optional; use 'all' if shared between districts)
#
#########################################################################
/data1/gom/VIP_data GOM
/data2/int/VIP_data INT
/data3/misc/VIP_data all
Alternatively, members of the WOW_ADMIN_GROUP can configure these files through the
browser by clicking on ‘Admin’ on the WOW top bar.
Important note: VIP VDB files/directories may also be viewed in WOW through the Z-
MAP Plus/Other Data directory browsing modules.
ProMAX
To enable ProMAX data viewing in WOW, configure promax.env:
prompt> cd $OWHOME/WebApps/conf
prompt> cp promax.env.default promax.env
prompt> vi promax.env
…check that the ProMAX environment is correctly specified, particularly PROMAX_HOME,
PROMAX_DATA_HOME and PROMAX_64BIT (1=64-bit, 0=32-bit).
Also, create a link from promaxsh32 or promaxsh64 to promaxsh in
$OWHOME/WebApps/bin, e.g. for 64-bit:
cd $OWHOME/WebApps/bin
ln -s promaxsh64 promaxsh
Multiple PROMAX_DATA_HOME locations can also be configured. To implement:
prompt> cd $OWHOME/WebApps/conf
prompt> cp promax_data_homes.dat.default promax_data_homes.dat
prompt> vi promax_data_homes.dat
… add all PROMAX_DATA_HOME locations
If promax_data_homes.dat exists, a link will appear on the ProMAX area page to
select or change location. If this file is not present, PROMAX_DATA_HOME is taken from
promax.env.
Utility pmxGetAreas can be used as a test of whether ProMAX is correctly configured.
