Overview TRANSFER provides procedures that you use to install your TRANSFER delivery
system. This section begins with an overview of the installation procedures; it then
describes the procedures for installing different components of your TRANSFER
system.
Installing a TRANSFER
System
You must have a named TACL running on your system in order to install TRANSFER.
You install a TRANSFER system in phases. The phases and their functions include the
following:
1. Definition
Definition uses the system descriptions you provide in the define files, described
in Appendix A, to generate files that initialize data files, configure the PATHWAY
system, and start and stop the PATHWAY system. Definition allows you to install
a new system or new components in an existing system. Definition is performed
by definition programs—one for each component you include in the TRANSFER
system. The programs are:
CDTRDEF—for Base TRANSFER, including ADMIN and TMANAGER
CDMLDEF—for PS MAIL 6530
CDIMDEF—for PS MAIL 3270
CDCMDEF—for PS MAIL TTY
CDX4DEF—for the X400 gateway
2. Initialization
Initialization uses files generated by the definition programs to initialize data files
for system components. The components requiring initialization are Base
TRANSFER and the X400 gateway. Initialization is done to install a new system or
component or to start over and reinitialize an existing system. Initialization is
performed by executing obey files as follows:
GTRINIT—for Base TRANSFER
GX4INIT—for the X400 gateway
3. Configuration
Configuration uses files generated by the definition programs to configure and
cold load the PATHWAY system for your TRANSFER system. The XCNFG
program configures all components in the PATHWAY system.
4. Start
Start uses files generated by the definition programs to start your TRANSFER
system by performing a cool start on the PATHWAY system. The XCOOL
program starts all components in the PATHWAY system.
