## Appendix B
Sample Installations for OpenVMS Systems

This appendix shows sample installations of DECdfs client and server software on the following systems:

- Client-only installation on OpenVMS VAX Version 5.5-2 with DECnet-VAX
- Server installation on OpenVMS Alpha Version 7.1-1H2 with DECnet-Plus

## B.1 Client-Only Installation on OpenVMS VAX Version 5.5-2 with DECnet-VAX

The following sample dialogue shows a typical installation of DECdfs client software on OpenVMS VAX Version 5.5-2 with DECnet-VAX.

    $ @sys$update:vmsinstal

            VAX/VMS Software Product Installation Procedure V5.5-2

    It is 27-OCT-1998 at 11:23.

    Enter a question mark (?) at any time for help.

    * Are you satisfied with the backup of your system disk [YES]?
    * Where will the distribution volumes be mounted: dua0:[kit]

    Enter the products to be processed from the first distribution volume set.
    * Products: DECDFS01023
    * Enter installation options you wish to use (none):

    The following products will be processed:

      DECDFS01 V2.3

            Beginning installation of DECDFS01 V2.3 at 11:24

    %VMSINSTAL-I-RESTORE, Restoring product save set A ...
    %VMSINSTAL-I-RELMOVED, Product's release notes have been moved to SYS$HELP.
    * Do you want to run the IVP after the installation [YES]?
    * Do you want to purge files replaced by this installation [YES]?

     Current configuration:    OpenVMS VAX V5.5-2 - DECnet Phase IV

    * Install the DFS files that support this configuration? [YES]?
    * Do you want to install the DECDFS01 V2.3 SERVER software on this node [YES]?
     no

            Product:      DFS-CLIENT
            Producer:     DEC
            Version:      2.0
            Release Date: 20-JUN-1994

    * Does this product have an authorization key registered and loaded? yes

             Installation will be complete in approximately 1 - 5 minutes
             depending upon your configuration.

             There are no more questions unless you chose to run the IVP.
             Installing DECdfs software . . .

    %VMSINSTAL-I-RESTORE, Restoring product save set B ...

            The following line should be added to your SYSTARTUP command
            file to automatically start DFS at system startup time:
                     "@SYS$STARTUP:DFS$STARTUP.COM"

            Put DFS$STARTUP after the statement that invokes the DECnet
            start-up command file (STARTNET.COM). The DECnet software
            must be started before the DECdfs software.

            Before starting DECdfs . . .

            * You must execute SYS$STARTUP:DNS$CHANGE_DEF_FILE.COM.

            Since DECdfs is not being started, we cannot
            run the Installation Verification Procedure (IVP).
            A copy of DFS$IVP.COM is in the SYS$TEST directory,
            so you can run the IVP after you start DECdfs.

    %VMSINSTAL-I-MOVEFILES, Files will now be moved to their target directories...

            Installation of DECDFS01 V2.3 completed at 11:28

    Enter the products to be processed from the next distribution volume set.
