Installing the OpenVMS VAX Operating System
3.2 Creating the System Disk
The InfoServer work group number was determined when you made a selection
from the menu displayed by the InfoServer ISL program (see Section 3.1). If the
answer to the group number is incorrect, the procedure displays the following:
InfoServer work group number must be in the range 0-1023.
The procedure then prompts you as follows:
* Is the OpenVMS media ready to be mounted? [N]: Y
%MOUNT-I-MOUNTED, VMS073 mounted on _DAD1:
3.2.7 Selecting Optional OpenVMS Components
The procedure displays information about OpenVMS VAX files that are optional
and about the remaining amount of disk space. The information is similar to the
following (block sizes might vary slightly):
Select optional software you want to install. You can install one
or more of the following OpenVMS or DECwindows components:
o OpenVMS library - 52200 blocks
o OpenVMS optional - 19000 blocks
o OpenVMS Help Message - 10400 blocks
o OpenVMS Management Station - 20000 blocks
o DECwindows base support - 4400 blocks
o DECwindows workstation support - 23800 blocks
- 75 dots per inch video fonts - (included)
- 100 dots per inch video fonts - 6200 blocks
o DECnet-Plus networking - 80000 blocks
o DECnet Phase IV networking - 800 blocks
Space remaining on system disk: 1170752 blocks
You must indicate which of the options you want to install. If you require network
support, you must select the OpenVMS library component.
Note that, if you do not install the optional components at this time, you can
install them after the installation by using the VMSTAILOR or DECW$TAILOR
utility. However, the Help Message utility can be tailored on to the system disk
only.
If you want to install Help Message on an alternate disk, you must install it now
or install it after the installation procedure completes by entering the following
BACKUP command:
BACKUP/VERIFY source-device:[000000]VMS073.E/SAVE_SET -
target-device:[directory-name]
For source-device, enter the device name for the drive on which the distribution
media is mounted. For target-device, enter the device name on which the
alternate disk is mounted, and for directory-name, enter the name of the directory
to which you are copying the files.
Also note that, for TK50 CompacTape cartridges, it is quicker to install
OpenVMS VAX software during the installation than to add software after the
installation with a tailoring utility. For information about using VMSTAILOR,
see Chapter 10.
To select the options you want to install, follow the instructions displayed by the
procedure.
