J06.15 Software Installation and Upgrade Guide

D Copying the DSM/SCM and SWID SPRs from the SUT
Using the Planner Interface
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 in “Using DSM/SCM
With NonStop Software Essentials to Install SPRs” (page 132).
Alerts
To determine “Determine the Product Version of DSM/SCM on the Host System and the SUT
and .
Save the current configuration database. (See “Save the Current Configuration File
(CONFxxyy)” (page 46)).
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 re-initiate
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 and SUT
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 DSM/SCM
product version by following the procedures in “Copy (RESTORE) the DSM/SCM Server, NonStop
Software Essentials Server, and SWID Product Versions from the SUT to Disk” (page 148).
For comparison, the DSM/SCM version on the SUT is T6031H02^ADB.
Determine the SWID Product Version on the Host System and SUT
Using the VPROC command, identify the SWID SPR. For comparison, the SWID version on the
SUT 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:
