H06.13 Software Installation and Upgrade Guide

B Installing SWID, DSM/SCM PVU, and Planner Interface
(PI) Client Software
NOTE:
• For NonStop NS-series servers, you must have installed both the DSM/SCM SPR and the corresponding client
version before you receive an RVU SUT. For H06.13, all newly shipped NonStop NS-series servers will have the
latest DSM/SCM SPR installed. The latest DSM/SCM client version is available only on the SUT unless you have
ordered new system consoles.
• Always install the latest SWID PVU at the same time you install a new DSM/SCM PVU to avoid a fingerprint or
mismatched file problem. (DSM/SCM uses SWID to determine if a file has changed by a method called fingerprinting.
If an existing file has a different fingerprint from a newer file, the newer version replaces the existing file.) For
H06.13, your newly shipped NonStop NS-series server will have the latest SWID SPR.
Alerts
• “Determine the Product Version of DSM/SCM on the Host System” and “Determine the Product
Version of DSM/SCM on the Client”.
• Save the current configuration database. (See “Save the Current Configuration File
(CONFxxyy)” (page 62)).
• Keep the startup TACL windows, the EMS Event Stream window, and the DSM/SCM client
interface windows open whenever you are performing a Build/Apply. Otherwise, Build/Apply
errors will result.
• If you receive an error indication in the Request Status window, you might have to reinitiate
the Build/Apply. See the DSM/SCM Messages Manual to learn the nature and severity of
the problem.
Determine the Product Version of DSM/SCM on the Host System
To determine which product version of DSM/SCM is currently installed on your system, use the
VPROC command to determine the product version of TAEXE (Apply product of DSM/SCM) and
CBEXE (Build product of DSM/SCM).
At a TACL prompt, enter:
> volume $dsmscm_vol.ZDSMSCM
> vproc taexe
> vproc cbexe
If your VPROC commands do not display the following versions, install the latest H02 DSM/SCM
product version as described in “Copy (RESTORE) the H02 DSM/SCM Product Version to Disk (If
Necessary)” (page 126):
This example shows the ABQ product version update of DSM/SCM after DSM/SCM has been
activated for H06.07. (Bold lettering is used to show the VPROC command and the latest version):
