Preparing to Use OpenVMS Management
Station
During the OpenVMS installation or upgrade procedure, the OpenVMS
Management Station server software is automatically installed on your OpenVMS
system disk.
If you accepted the default options the PC client files will be located in
SYS$COMMON:[TNT.CLIENT]. If these files are deleted from your system you
can either tailor (see Chapter 10) them back on, or download them from the
following location:

If the TNT$* server files have been deleted from SYS$SYSTEM, you can recover
the server files by reinstalling the OpenVMS operating system.
After you have ensured that OpenVMS Management Station software is installed
on your system, follow the procedures described in this appendix.
G.1 Preparing Your OpenVMS System
You must prepare your OpenVMS system to run the server software so that
your system can properly interact with the PC running the client software. The
procedures include the following:
• Set up within a mixed-architecture cluster environment (if applicable).
• Start the server on other nodes.
• Update the printer and storage database.
• Edit the system files.
• Allow OpenVMS Management Station to control the printer and storage
environment.
• Keep your printer environment up to date.
• Check if running third-party TCP/IP stacks.
• Recover from a failure.
• Determine and report problems.
