Installing More Than One Copy of DSNM
Concurrently
Running DSNM Products
You can run DSMS products in a default configuration after the REPSUBSYS phase of
the Install program in the following operations environments:
•
DSNM and NetCommand in a DSMS operations environment
•
DSNM and NetCommand with NetStatus in a DSMS operations environment
•
DSNM alone in a NonStop NET/MASTER MS operations environment
•
DSNM with NetStatus in a NonStop NET/MASTER MS operations environment
•
DSNM started externally, with or without NetStatus, in a NonStop NET/MASTER
MS operations environment
Refer to the Distributed Systems Management Solutions (DSMS) System Management
Guide for a discussion of each of these environments.
Installing More Than One Copy of DSNM Concurrently
Just as the DSNM product runs in an operations environment such as DSMS or NonStop
NET/MASTER MS, every DSNM process runs in a DSNM environment. A DSNM
environment defines configuration characteristics of the process. You can define any
number of DSNM environments, each of which may be run in a default configuration or
may be customized to any degree desired. For more information about customizing a
DSNM environment, refer to the Distributed Systems Management Solutions (DSMS)
System Management Guide.
You can have several copies of the same DSNM environment active on a Tandem node.
For example, you may want to use one DSNM copy for operations and another for
testing.
