Task 2.1: Ensure TCPIP and LISTNER Are Installed 
and Running
Task 2.1: Ensure TCPIP and LISTNER Are Installed and Running
Check that the TCPIP file and its LISTNER program are installed in the current host 
system SYSnn subvolume. To learn what SYSnn is running, on the host system:
> sysinfo
Task 2.2: Transfer DSM/SCM PC Files From the SUT to the PC
Load the Planner Interface from the subvolume on the host system where DSM/SCM 
will be placed:
1. On the host system, make ZDSMSCM the current subvolume:
> VOLUME $volume.ZDSMSCM
2. Using IXF or a similar method, perform a binary copy of the ZDSMEXE file from 
the ZDSMSCM subvolume on the host to a subdirectory called \DSMSCM on the 
PC. The subdirectory can be on any drive with sufficient space.
3. On your PC, rename the PC file to ZDSM.EXE.
4. Double-click the ZDSM.EXE file to decompress the DSM/SCM files you just 
transferred to your PC.
Task 2.3: Ensure Winsock Is Installed
Ensure Winsock is installed on the PC and that WINSOCK.DLL is in the \WIN, 
\WINDOWS, or another directory.
Task 2.4: Run SETUP.EXE
To initialize the Planner Interface on the PC:
1. Double-click the SETUP.EXE file in the DSMSCM directory. DSM/SCM displays the 
Setup Logon screen followed by licensing information, and then opens a series of 
dialog boxes.
2.
Enter the Object Manager server class name (optional); then click OK. The Object 
Manager, a host static server class, is the interface server to DSM/SCM for the 
Planner Interface and for the remote target system.
3. Enter the Software Product Group type (Shared or Private); then click OK.
Shared lets you share software input and product groups across multiple 
clients. Sharing groups permits other planners use the software groups you 
create. To share groups, you must indicate it now.
Private ensures that only the planner who creates a group can use it.
Note.  After you run ZDSM.EXE, you can delete it to save space. All other files are 
required for proper DSM/SCM operation.
