Quotation marks are optional if only one value is specified for a PARAM. If you specify a value
that is not recognized as a keyword, a warning message appears and the value is ignored. To
have the intended effect, PARAMs must be declared before a utility is started.
Examples
• To issue progress messages as EMS events using a ZSPIDEF subvolume on $SYSTEM when
initially configuring OSS, enter:
PARAM EASYSETUP^EMSVOL $SYSTEM
OSSSETUP
• To issue progress messages as EMS events using a ZSPIDEF subvolume on $SYSTEM on the
remote node \NODE when initially configuring OSS, enter:
PARAM EASYSETUP^EMSVOL \NODE.$SYSTEM
OSSSETUP
This allows systems in an Expand network to share a ZSPIDEF subvolume instead of maintaining
a separate ZSPIDEF subvolume on each node.
• To configure and start both $ZSMP and $NULL when initially configuring OSS, enter:
PARAM EASYSETUP^STARTUP "$ZSMP $NULL"
OSSSETUP
• To start only $NULL when starting OSS, enter:
PARAM EASYSETUP^STARTUP "$NULL"
STARTOSS
• To configure OSS using an installation subvolume on the disk $DSM, enter:
PARAM EASYSETUP^UTILVOL $DSM
OSSSETUP
• To automatically create symbolic links for the TCP/IP product that is installed in
$ALTSYS.TCPLOC and configure OSS, enter:
PARAM EASYSETUP^TCPIP^SUBVOL $ALTSYS.TCPLOC
OSSSETUP
NOTE: The EASYSETUP^TCPIP^SUBVOL TACL PARAM is available beginning with the
J06.16 and H06.27 RVUs.
OSSSETUP Utility
The OSSSETUP utility configures a new, basic OSS environment by using the server and fileset
configuration file values discussed in “Managing Servers” (page 90), and “Managing Filesets”
(page 140). The T0585AAA version of OSSSETUP also configures the OSSMON object file (
$ZPMON) as a persistent object in the Kernel Subsystem; T0585AAB and subsequent versions
configure $ZPMON as a generic object.
The T0585AAA version of OSSSETUP configures the OSMP object file ($ZSMP) as a generic object
and the NULL object file ($NULL) as a persistent object if they are not already running. The
T0585AAB and subsequent versions of OSSSETUP can be configured to do that also, but do not
do so by default.
The OSSSETUP utility can be used when:
• Your system was not preconfigured by HP.
• You do not require more than three filesets (ROOT for /, TEMP for /tmp, and HOME for
/home).
OSSSETUP is intended to provide a quick way to initially configure an OSS environment. You can
later build on the configuration OSSSETUP creates by manually configuring additional resources
or altering your initial configuration.
