I recently installed VMS. I have been able to do a number of things, but I have been STUMPED when trying to install. Can anyone be so nice as to guide me through an installation? The files I want to install are already on the sys$sysroot directory. WHat application do I use? (sys$update:vmsinstal?)
Please help
Solved! Go to Solution.

Re: Package Installation on VMS
xxxx.a, xxxx.b in dev:[dir] etc then use
@SYS$UPDATE:VMSINSTAL xxxx dev:[dir]
If the software is supplied as xxxx.PCSI then use
PRODUCT INSTALL xxxx /SOURCE=dev:[dir]
Normally installation instructions are supplied with the software.
Purely Personal Opinion

Re: Package Installation on VMS
Use @SYS$UPDATE:VMSINSTAL for kits that come as backup savesets (e.g. CC065.A, CC065.B).
Use PRODUCT INSTAL for kits that come as .PCSI files (e.g. CPQ-AXPVMS-CSWS-V0200--1.PCSI).
Also, check the release notes and installation instructions for the software you want to install.
Gretz,
Kris

Re: Package Installation on VMS
note that Ian wrote
$ @SYS$UPDATE:VMSINSTAL xxx
when you have a file named xxx.A
(i.e. leave off the extension).

Re: Package Installation on VMS
you are specifying dka300:sys$sysroot:[sysmgr]
either use
SYS$SYSROOT:[SYSMGR]
or
dka300:[sys0.sysmgr]
Regards
Dave
