PMDF-MTA Example Installation

Example 2-1 is a sample PMDF-MTA installation dialogue (using the VMSINSTAL utility). Before the installation started, the PMDF V6.8 product kit was copied from the PMDF distribution CD-ROM directory ([pmdf066.openvms] ) to the DKA100:[000000] directory.

Remember that the values in this sample installation are for purposes of example only. Make sure you use values that are appropriate for your system when you perform the actual installation.

Note

Whenever possible, the installation supplies a default (which is enclosed in square brackets). If you want to accept the default value, press [RETURN]. Otherwise, enter the correct value.

    Make sure you read the PMDF Installation Guide, OpenVMS Edition, 
    before proceeding with this installation. If you do not have a 
    copy of the installation guide, see the Process Software web site 
    at www.process.com, or contact Process Software technical support. 
 
*  [Press RETURN To Continue]: [RETURN]
 
* Do you want to purge files replaced by this installation [YES]? YES
 
    Alpha VMS executables will be provided automatically by this installation. 
    The installations of VAX VMS or I64 VMS executables is optional. 
    Having all sets of executables on the same system causes no conflicts 
    in PMDF. 
 
* Install VAX VMS executables as well as Alpha VMS executables [NO]? NO
* Install I64 VMS executables as well as Alpha VMS executables [NO]? NO
 
    You will now be asked where you want the PMDF files to be 
    installed.  The files will be stored in a directory tree of 
    your choice on the device and under the directory which you specify. 
    A system-wide logical name called PMDF_ROOT will be created by 
    the PMDF startup procedure to refer to this directory tree. 
 
    Enter the device and directory or rooted directory where the top level 
    PMDF tree should be. 
 
        e.g. DUA3:[PMDF] 
        or   DUA0:[UTILS.MAILSTUFF.PMDF040] 
 
    or if the logical name UTIL_DIR: is a rooted logical pointing to 
    DUA0:[UTIL.PMDF.] you can use something like UTIL_DIR:[V33] 
 
    Note that you must NOT include the trailing "." as in a rooted 
    directory name here (it will be added when the root is defined). 
 
* Enter the device and directory [SYS$SYSDEVICE:[PMDF]]: DKA0:[PMDF]
 
    This is a new installation of PMDF. 
 
    If you plan to use channel or system level mail filtering or use 
    PhoneNet channels, or channels that use DECnet proxied 
    transports (PhoneNet over DECnet or SMTP over DECnet) you will need a 
    PMDF server account. Other channels do not require a special PMDF 
    server account. 
 
    The server account name is usually PMDF... but you can use another name. 
 
                             NOTE: 
 
    A disk quota entry must be manually created for the PMDF server account 
    if one is needed. Failure to do so will make it impossible for 
    nonprivileged users to send PMDF mail. 
 
 
* Username for the PMDF server account [PMDF]: PMDF
 
* Does this account already exist [NO]? NO
 
* Password for the PMDF server account: somepassword
 
* Numeric UIC for the PMDF server account [[375,1]]: [375,1]

    PMDF channel programs that perform proxied actions on behalf of users 
    need a nonprivileged context to operate in. This context is provided by 
    a special nonprivileged account. This PMDF user account should be in 
    a group by itself to prevent unauthorized file access by group, and the 
    UIC group should be outside of the system UIC group range. 
 
    The user account name is usually PMDF_USER... but you can use another name. 
 
* Username for the PMDF user account [PMDF_USER]? PMDF_USER
 
* Does this account already exist [NO]? NO

    PMDF operates by submitting its service jobs to a VMS queue for 
    processing. The queue can either be a standard VMS batch queue or a 
    queue serviced with the PMDF process symbiont. Although the queue used 
    can be controlled on a per-channel basis, in most cases a default queue 
    is used. Enter the name of this default queue here. 
 
* Queue PMDF jobs should run in [MAIL$BATCH]: MAIL$BATCH
 
    PMDF service jobs need to execute under a privileged username.  This 
    is normally SYSTEM.  If you would prefer your PMDF service jobs to 
    execute under a different privileged username, you can enter that 
    username now. 
 
* Username for PMDF service jobs [SYSTEM]: SYSTEM
 
    PMDF's integrated DELIVER subsystem causes PMDF to submit batch jobs on 
    behalf of users with MAIL.DELIVERY files. Enter a default queue for these 
    jobs to run in. Note that MAIL.DELIVERY files can specify the queue the 
    job they create runs in as well as various queue parameters. Also note 
    that the queues handled by the PMDF process symbiont can NOT be used to 
    run the jobs created by nonprivileged users' MAIL.DELIVERY files. 
 
* Batch queue DELIVER jobs should run in [SYS$BATCH]: SYS$BATCH
 
    PMDF needs to know the timezone for the site in order to fill in 
    date-time lines in message headers.  You may enter a timezone here 
    which will be equivalenced to the system logical name PMDF_TIMEZONE 
    for use by PMDF. If you do not specify a timezone, PMDF will use VMS 
    system logicals to get the timezone, if your version of VMS supplies 
    them. 
 
* Current timezone for this site [EST]: EST
 
    PMDF provides an online HELP file that describes the PMDF command. 
    You can elect to add this help entry to your system help library. 
    The entry is available as the file PMDF_ROOT:[DOC]PMDF.HLP 
    regardless of whether or not you elect to install it. 
 
* Do you want a system help entry for the PMDF DCL command [YES]? YES
 
* Do you want to run PMDF_STARTUP.COM after the installation 
    completes [YES]? YES

    Upon completion of this installation, make sure you read the 
    PMDF Installation Guide, OpenVMS Edition, and excute the 
    Post-Installation Tasks, including: 
 
     - If this installation is being done on an OpenVMS cluster, you must 
       do INSTALL REPLACE SYS$LIBRARY:DCLTABLES and then do 
       @SYS$STARTUP:PMDF_STARTUP.COM on all nodes where PMDF is 
       going to be used (you may use SYSMAN for these). 
 
     - Be sure that your system startup procedure includes 
       SYS$STARTUP:PMDF_STARTUP.COM and SYS$STARTUP:PMDF_SUBMIT_JOBS.COM. 
       PMDF_STARTUP should be run prior to starting any networks that PMDF 
       is configured to run over (including DECnet). 
 
     - The format of compiled configurations changes with each release of PMDF. 
       If this is an upgrade and you use a compiled configuration, you must 
       recompile your compiled configuration: 
         $ PMDF CNBUILD 
       If you elect to start PMDF prior to executing this command you should: 
         $ INSTALL REPLACE PMDF_CONFIG_DATA 
       This command should be executed on every node where PMDF is started. 
 
     - If you are upgrading from a previous version of PMDF, then note that a 
       new PMDF_SUBMIT_JOBS.COM is provided with this kit, so you should 
       delete the periodic PMDF delivery job and PMDF Message Bouncer job 
       in your PMDF queue and resubmit them by executing the command 
       @SYS$STARTUP:PMDF_SUBMIT_JOBS
