Step-by-Step Installation

The following procedure describes how to install and configure the OSI/MHS AU

product:

1. Create the AU user-permissions database file.

The master user sets up an AU user-permissions database file for each OSI/MHS

subsystem that the master user administrates. The name of the AU user-permissions

database should be the name defined by the AUS-AUUSERS-FILENAME

parameter in the AU-SERVER class configuration. To create an AU

user-permissions database, use the following procedure:

a. Log on as the user who owns the MHSMGR of the OSI/MHS subsystem.

b. Using TACL, load the AUINST macro file (from the AU PSV) by typing the

following:

LOAD /KEEP 1/ AUINST

c. Run the AU_CR_USERS macro by typing the following:

AU_CR_USERS [ $volumename.subvolumename. ] filename

where [ $volumename.subvolumename. ] filename is the file name of

the AU user-permissions database file.

Note that the fully qualified file name you enter here must match the entry in the

AU Pathway parameter AUS-AUUSERS-FILENAME. If you do not specify a

file name, the macro displays a help message and exits. If you do not fully

qualify the file name, the location of the file defaults to the current subvolume.

2. Create the Pathway servers for the AU.

Add the two AU server classes (the AU-DISTRIBUTOR class and the

AU-SERVER class) to a Pathway environment for each OSI/MHS subsystem you

administrate. You can add these servers to either an existing or new Pathway

environment. The user who creates the AU Pathway servers becomes the master

user for the AU. The file AUCNFG, provided on the AU PSV, gives an example of

a Pathway configuration for the AU. You may change the Pathway parameters to

reflect your specific environment.

Parameters starting with AUD are used by the AU-DISTRIBUTOR class. The

AU-DISTRIBUTOR class must use the AUDIST program file.

Parameters starting with AUS are used by the AU-SERVER class. The

AU-SERVER class must use the AUSRVR program file.

The AUDIST and AUSRVR program files are provided on the AU PSV.

Note. If you have chosen a configuration requiring more than one user-permissions database,

repeat steps 1 and 2 of the following procedure for each user-permissions database you will be

using.
