Procedure to Install and Configure a Minimal OSS
Subsystem
3. Run DSM/SCM to update DSM/SCM (product T6031) to D46 PVU. (For
instructions, see the DSM/SCM User’s Guide.)
The D46 PVU can process A7CINFO files that contain OSS file information for all
DSM/SCM-enabled OSS products in the RVU.
4. Run DSM/SCM to update your system's software with the files in the RVU (G06.17
or later). (For instructions, see the DSM/SCM User’s Guide.)
This step:
Upgrades OSS EasySetup
Installs all OSS files in the RVU on the ZOSSUTL subvolume
Runs a system load if necessary
5. Use OSSSETUP to configure and start an OSS subsystem. (For instructions, see
Section 2, OSSSETUP Utility.)
6. Run DSM/SCM to install converted product files in the OSS file system. (For
instructions, see the DSM/SCM User’s Guide.)
This step:
Repopulates part of the OSS filesets from the ZOSSUTL archives described in
the A7CINFO file, preserving file modes
Updates the DSM/SCM database with OSS file information for future
maintenance
7. Set up your OSS network utilities (inetd and sockets). (For instructions, see the
Open System Services Management and Operations Guide.)
8. Set up your printers. (For instructions, see the Open System Services
Management and Operations Guide.)
9. Set up your OSS users (home directories and so on). (For instructions, see the
Open System Services Management and Operations Guide.)
10. Install OSS files for products that use OSS but do not use the ZOSSUTL
subvolume to install their OSS product files. For example, both HP NonStop
Distributed Computing Environment (DCE) and NonStop SQL/MX use the pax
utility to copy a file from a Guardian subvolume into the OSS file system and then
use the copied file to install more files for the product. (For instructions, see the
manuals for those products.)
11. (Optional) Customize your configuration; for example, enable Safeguard auditing of
OSS files. (For instructions, see the Open System Services Management and
Operations Guide.)
Note. Do not use COPYOSS to install OSS files that DSM/SCM manages. Doing so
replaces the DSM/SCM-managed files, which can make it difficult to determine
whether OSS files are managed by DSM/SCM. This confusion can cause problems in
managing OSS files with DSM/SCM.
