H06.25 Software Installation and Upgrade Guide

D Installing SWID, DSM/SCM PVU, and Planner Interface
(PI) Client Software
NOTE:
• You must have installed both the DSM/SCM SPR and the corresponding client version before you receive an RVU
SUT. All newly shipped NonStop systems 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.) Your
newly shipped system will have the latest SWID SPR.
• DSM/SCM is not installed and not supported on 64-bit consoles. If you have a Windows 2008 (64-bit) console,
use the instructions for installing SWID and DSM/SCM using NonStop Software Essentials; see “Copying the
DSM/SCM, NonStop Software Essentials, and SWID SPRs from the SUT Using NonStop Software Essentials”
(page 167).
Alerts
• “Determine the Product Version of DSM/SCM on the Host System and the SUT” (page 168)
and “Determine the Product Version of DSM/SCM on the Host System” (page 176).
• 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.
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 version for this RVU, install the correct H02 DSM/SCM
product version by following the procedures in “Copy (RESTORE) the H02 DSM/SCM Product
Version to Disk (If Necessary)” (page 177).
For comparison, the DSM/SCM version on the SUT is T6031H02^ADB.
Determine the Latest SWID Product
Using the VPROC command, identify the SWID SPR.
The SWID version for this RVU is T9298H02^AAV.
Determine the Product Version of DSM/SCM on the Client
To determine which product version of DSM/SCM client software is installed, start the DSM/SCM
Planner Interface. Before prompting you to log on, the About DSM/SCM window briefly displays
version information. For example:
