Configure SMF (Optional)
Guide for a description of PINSTALL use, or the pinstall(1) reference page in
the OSS Shell and Utilities Reference Manual.
See also the appropriate product’s softdoc for any pre- or post installation instructions.
Run the inetd Process
Run the inetd process immediately after loading the OSS product files into the OSS
environment. The inetd process listens for connections on certain Internet sockets.
When a connection is found on one of its sockets, inetd determines what service the
socket corresponds to and invokes a program to service the request.
For those products that are not managed by DSM/SCM, you must install them using
COPYOSS or PINSTALL. See the appropriate product’s softdoc and installation
instructions.
Using OSS Unautomated Configuration and Startup
Unautomated configuration and startup is described in Appendix B in the Open System
Services Management and Operations Guide.
Using OSS EasySetup (T0585)
The OSS EasySetup product (T0585) is available for automated setup, as described in
the Open System Services Installation Guide. OSS EasySetup is a series of TACL
scripts that assist a site when configuring and installing a minimal OSS subsystem for
the first time or when starting, stopping, or removing an OSS subsystem.
Configure SMF (Optional)
If you plan to configure SMF, an optional product, note:
•
Migration of data from direct volumes to SMF logical volumes is documented in the
Storage Management Foundation User's Guide.
•
Performance-critical applications that optimize the physical location of their data
might need to specify the PHYSVOL option when creating data files, instead of
relying on the SMF file-placement algorithm.
•
NonStop SQL/MP 3.x must be up and running before you start SMF.
Caution. To maintain data integrity, do not place these items on a virtual disk process (VDP):
•
SWAP files
•
TMF audit data
•
DSM/SCM files
