Major Steps for Installing the NonStop ODBC Server
The PC interface requires that a minimal administrator configuration, such as that
created during the NOSINST LOAD step, be defined and started
Configure the SCS process:
•
the network service name,
•
process-creation attributes,
•
NonStop ODBC component location (SCSOBJ, NOS, NOSUTIL), and
•
optional startup messages for SCS and NOS.
Configure a NonStop ODBC Server server class:
•
usernames associated with that server class,
•
CPUs to run in,
•
priority,
•
maximum number of processes,
•
number of available (idle) processes, and
•
the association between a NonStop ODBC Server server class and the SCS
parent process.
Configure the NonStop ODBC servers:
•
SQL statement caching,
•
tracing,
•
resource accounting and resource governing attributes, and
•
NonStop ODBC Server session defaults.
This section provides a step-by-step procedure to install the NonStop ODBC Server, so
you do not need a thorough understanding of configuration details.
After installation, a NonStop ODBC Server system must be managed to support new
applications, new users, and changing workloads. Managing the system involves many
of the configuration aspects of installing it, but requires a deeper understanding of
determining and enhancing its operating status. Managing the system is described in
Section 4, Managing the NonStop ODBC Server.
The NonStop ODBC Server includes several components and configuration interfaces.
In general, you could perform the installation steps in a variety of sequences. For
simplicity, however, this manual specifies and recommends that one sequence of steps
be followed.
Note. Each installation step builds on the results of the previous steps, so it is important to do
each installation step in sequence and to verify that the step has been completed correctly
before proceeding to the next step.
