OSS Database Files
See the Open System Services Management and Operations Guide and the Open
System Services Installation Guide for information about updating and maintaining
OSS database files. See the Interactive Upgrade Guide 2 for new OSS features and
for a summary of migration or installation issues.
Installing Products Not Managed by DSM/SCM
Use COPYOSS or PINSTALL or both to install products that are not managed by
DSM/SCM.
•
If any OSS files are managed by DSM/SCM, use PINSTALL on the remaining pax
archives. See the OSS Management and Operations Guide for a description of
PINSTALL use or the pinstall(1) reference page in the OSS Shell and Utilities
Reference Manual.
•
If no OSS files are managed by DSM/SCM, use COPYOSS for all of the OSS pax
archives in the ZOSSUTL subvolume. See the OSS Management and Operations
Guide for a description of COPYOSS use or the copyoss(8) reference page in
the OSS Shell and Utilities Reference Manual. Then use PINSTALL to install any
pax archives in other subvolumes. See the OSS Management and Operations
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.
General Alerts and Considerations
Also note these general OSS alerts and considerations:
•
Disk volumes that are accessed by the OSS environment, including the $SYSTEM
volume where the OSS Monitor’s configuration files are kept, must not be
configured for administration by the HP NonStop Storage Management Foundation
(SMF).
•
For the OSS environment, certain configuration files require symbolic links from the
OSS file system. For more information, see the OSS Management and Operations
Guide.
•
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.
See the inetd(8) reference page in the Open System Services Shell and Utilities
Reference Manual for more information.
