Installing the Basic Components
2. Modify necessary attributes of the subsystem object using the SCF ALTER
SUBSYS command. In most cases, the default attributes for the subsystem will not
be adequate for your installation. For example, the MIB filename and the name of
the OSI manager process on your system will probably not be the same as the
default values established for the SUBSYS object. These two attributes in particular
must be configured correctly before you start the APLMGR process. The following
command changes these two attributes for the Example FTAM Configuration
on
page 3-38:
ALTER SUBSYS $AMGR, OMGRNAME $OSM1 &
, MIB $DATA.ZAPLMMIB.ZOSADB
For more information on changing attributes of the SUBSYS object, see Changing
SUBSYS Object Attributes on page 3-49.
3. Start the APLMGR process using the SCF START command. To start the APLMGR
process for the Example FTAM Configuration
on page 3-38, issue the following
command:
START PROCESS $AMGR
Consider the following points when installing the APLMGR process for your
configuration:
•
Specify the NAME parameter in the TACL RUN command. The NonStop
Kernel operating system will not start APLMGR unless you specify this external
Guardian process name. This name must match the name of the APLMGR
process provided as a parameter in FTAM applications.
•
You should specify a primary and backup processor so the APLMGR process
runs as a NonStop process pair. In the RUN command example (see step 1 of
Creating and Starting the APLMGR Process
on page 3-46), the backup
processor (2) is specified after the backslash (/) in the CPU attribute.
•
In addition to the MIB and OMGRNAME attributes of the SUBSYS object, you
may need to modify other default attributes. Starting and Adding an Alternate
Collector on page 3-48 discusses how you can modify SUBSYS object
attributes using the SCF ALTER SUBSYS command.
For further information on starting and configuring APLMGR, see the OSI/FTAM and
OSI/APLMGR SCF Reference Manual.
