H06.20 Software Installation and Upgrade Guide

C Installing the SWID and DSM/SCM SPRs Using NonStop
Software Essentials
NOTE:
• You must install the DSM/SCM SPR and the SWID SPR from the RVU SUT and NonStop Software Essentials
(T0895V02 AAA (client) or later and T0894V02 AAA (server) or later) from Scout before you receive the RVU SUT.
• Installing the destination-RVU SWID SPR at the same time you install new DSM/SCM and NonStop System Console
server SPRs avoids 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.)
Alerts
• “Determine the Product Version of DSM/SCM on the Host System” and “Determine the Product
Version of NonStop Software Essentials on the Client”.
• Save the current configuration database. (See “Save the Current Configuration File
(CONFxxyy)” (page 67)).
• 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.

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
