Upgrading the OpenVMS VAX Operating System
7.3 Upgrade Phase 1
7.3.6.4 OpenVMS Management Station Files
The procedure displays the following message:
The OpenVMS Management Station is a client-server application that
provides OpenVMS system management capabilities through a client
application on a personal computer (PC) running Microsoft Windows.
The server application runs on OpenVMS systems and is automatically
installed as part of the OpenVMS operating system.
This option provides the files used to install the PC client software.
If you want to use the OpenVMS Management Station, you must install
these optional files on at least one OpenVMS system and then use one or
both of them to install the PC client on one or more PCs. There are two
files: TNT030_I.EXE for Intel systems (Windows 95 and Windows NT), and
TNT030_A.EXE for Alpha Windows NT systems.
The OpenVMS Management Station optional files consume approximately 20000
blocks and will be placed on your system disk in SYS$COMMON:[TNT.CLIENT].
* Do you want to install the optional OpenVMS Management Station files? (Y/N)
Space remaining on system disk: 1573110 blocks
If you want to use the OpenVMS Management Station software, you must install
these files. After the upgrade procedure completes, follow the instructions in
Appendix G to prepare your OpenVMS system and your PC to run the OpenVMS
Management Station server and client software.
7.3.7 Choosing DECwindows Support Options
Next, the procedure displays messages about the DECwindows components
shipped with OpenVMS VAX Version 7.3.
The OpenVMS VAX operating system no longer ships the OpenVMS DECwindows
product. The operating system now ships only the DECwindows base support
and DECwindows workstation support components. To get full DECwindows
support, you must also install the separate DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS
VAX (previously called VMS DECwindows Motif) layered product, which supports
both Motif and XUI environments.
Note that the DECwindows base support and DECwindows workstation support
components are not shipped with the DECwindows Motif for OpenVMS VAX
layered product. If you want to install these options, you must select them now
or use the DECW$TAILOR option after the installation procedure completes.
Before you indicate whether you want to install DECwindows support software,
consider the following:
If you... Then choose...
