OVERVIEW –

 

UniVision installation  for SVR4,Unixware 7 and Linux.

 

PRE-REQUISITES –

 

2 verified file-saves to be completed prior to upgrade.

 

EQUIPMENT LIST –

 

Old UniVision media(If applicable)

New UniVision media

 

NOTE: If you are re-loading a previous UniVision installation or upgrading UniVision where a re-installation is required then follow steps 3-8. For a first time UniVision installation follow the applicable sections.

 

 

DETAILS –

 

  1.  Ensure Customer has taken 2 verified file-saves.

 

  2.  Ensure all media is on site as per on site documentation media listing.

 

  3.  Ensure customer has shut down all Processes, including all Background

       Processes and that all processes are logged out and quit from UniVision.

       Use LISTPRO W to establish this, if any processes are still logged in they

       will be displayed, ask the customer to logoff and quit any processes

       displayed. If all processes are logged off then only the process that the

       LISTPRO W is being executed from will be displayed. .

 

4.     Login to root and remove UniVision by typing the following:

 

          #pkgrm univision

 

          when prompted to relink kenel enter y

 

          Once the installation is complete reboot the machine by typing the

          following:   

 

          #shutdown –y –i6 –g0

 

 

 

 

 4a.      Make a note of the Univision installation path by performing the following

     from UCL.

     

>!pwd

 

      This will produce an output similar to the following, this output is the home

      path for this Univision installation.

 

      e.g.  /unistore1/edp

 

 5.  Obtain a print of T-STATUS, in order to verify that the tape drive order is  

     retained. To do this first use SP-ASSIGN to select an available printer then enter the following from UCL.

 

 >T-STATUS (P

 

6.      Ensure no prints are in progress. To do this enter the following from root:

 

  #lpstat –o

 

  If there are prints in progress they will be displayed.

 

  e.g.  # lpstat -o

          test1-58402             edp                184   May 19 10:47:36

 

  Establish which printers are in progress, ensure they are printing and either  

  wait for them to complete or with the customers permission cancel them by   

       using the following command with the relevant print job request number:

 

  e.g.  #cancel test1-58402

 

  Re-execute an lpstat –o to ensure all prints are now complete or cancelled.

 

 7.   Run latest MAININFO Script and print output from /tmp (systeminfo) To do

       this carry out the following:

 

 Insert the TAR formatted diskette with the maininfo script, into the diskette 

       drive on the server.

 

  Log in as the root user and from the root prompt enter the following  

  commands:

 

  # mkdir systeminfo

 

  # cd systeminfo

 

    From within the new directory enter the following:

 

    # tar -vtf /dev/rdsk/f0t

 

    This will verify the TAR file located on the diskette

 

     # tar –xvf /dev/rdsk/f0t

 

    This will extract the contents of the diskette and then return to the root   

     prompt.

 

     At the root prompt enter:

 

     a)  # chmod 777 maininfo

 

     b)  # sh maininfo

 

     The script has now been run and the resulting file created, which is located  

     in /tmp, called systeminfo.html.

 

     Rename the file and TAR it back to the diskette. Use the following  

     commands to do so:

 

     # cd /tmp

 

     # mv systeminfo.html <customername>.html

 

     Remove the original diskette and insert a blank diskette. Perform the

     following:

 

     # tar –cvf /dev/rdsk/f0t <customername>.html

 

     The maininfo is then printed and along with a copy on a diskette, this

     remains  on-site.

 

9.      Mount the UniVision CD. To do this enter the following from root once the

      CD is inserted into the CD drive.

 

     #mount –F cdfs –o ro /dev/cdrom/cdrom1 /mnt  (for SVR4 and  

    Unixware 7)

     #mount /mnt/cdrom (for Linux)

 

  10.  Install the new UniVision package, to do this enter the following from root:

 

          #pkgadd –d /mnt/ncr univision             (for svr4)

    #pkgadd –d /mnt/sco univision (for unixware 7)

    #rpm –i --force –prefix $home /mnt/cdrom/linux9/UniVisionxx (for linux)

    (Where $home is the UniVision installation path noted earlier in option 4   

    and xx is the version number of UniVision).

 

    When prompted for installation path. Enter the UniVision home directory

    e.g  /unistore1/univ

    (This was noted earlier in option 4 or will be provided in this plan).

 

    When prompted:

    Enter Unlock code:

 

    Enter the number from the fourth line on the licencing information found on    

    the Univision CD case.

 

    N to configure registry.

 

    Y to re-link kernel.

 

    Once complete reboot the machine using the following:

 

    #shutdown –y –i6 –g0

 

    Login to UV. (If prompted for install password, enter OBJECTWARE).

 

    When prompted to set default flavour of UniVision select the flavour

         relevant to this installation.

 

    When prompted for UniVision system setup, enter the Operating System

    relevant to this installation.

 

    When prompted setup the tapes by inputting the relevant capitalised letter   

    relevant to the device type. The screen display will be similar to below,

    once a letter is entered the cursor will reposition at the next device, once all

    devices are entered input <esc> to [proceed].

                TESTING THE REMOTE LINK

 

                  To test that you link works logon to your local system and edit a new “MD”

                  item called “TEST”. Insert a “Q” in line 1 to denote a q pointer, in line 2 you

                  need to enter the Account name on the remote system for example   

                  “COMMS”, followed by the “@”symbol, followed by the name of the remote

                  link, which in the example was “univbox1”. Line 3 is the name of the file on

                  the remote system in the example I have used “MD”.

     'TEST' filed.

 

                 Now we have a TEST file in place, LIST the file, if the file list without any

                 errors  then your configuration is successful, if your LIST errors with “file not

                 found” then you need to check your configuration.
