Installation of V7 Add-on products
DRAFT COPY - Currently under review and edit.
INTRODUCTION:
=============
There have been questions as to whether an add-on product
can be successfully installed within an existing progress
installation. You MUST install compatible versions of products
within the same directory. As a reminder, it is not recommended
to install other progress products in separate directories.
Therefore, the following is a step by step guide to installing
additional products in an existing environment. Please refer to
kbase 15407 VERSION 7 UNIX INSTALLATION - PLEASE READ THIS
FIRST for additional information.
PROCEDURAL APPROACH:
====================
1. Login as 'root'.
2. Determine if the partition that the progress working directory is,
has the required space available. See the Installation Notes for more
information.
# df
3. Change directory to the directory that progress is currently
installed in. If Progress is installed in /usr1/7_3A06/dlc do the
following. DO NOT change directory to /usr1/73A06/dlc, because you
could overwrite the progress.cfg license file during the installation
removing all previous licensing. In order to prevent this, a backup
is always required before installing additional products.
# cd /usr1/7_3A06
# mkdir tmpinstall
# cd tmpinstall
4. Restore the required installation files from the product tape.
See Appendix B of the Installation Notes to obtain the cpio command
pertaining to your platform. Use the media id of your installation
tape to identify the command syntax and device name to be entered:
# cpio -iuvcdBm </dev/rmt/0
.
install.tab
itermcap
progress.cfg
README.PRO
_ovrly
proupdt
proinstall
install.hlp
hoh.hlp
ttyhelp
5. Start the installation by typing ./proinstall <return>.
# ./proinstall
6. The proinstall script will display a welcome message with copyright
information. Select the <return> key to continue to the Product
Configuration Data screen.
7. Enter Company Name, Serial Number, Release Number and to change the
tape device name.
7. Press CTRL-D when all products have been entered.
**WARNING**
If for any reason you abort the installation by typing
CTRL-C,the install script does not properly clean up all
files. Be aware that the $DLC/progress.cfg file, which
lists products installed, will still have the entry for
the product you just backed out.Therefore, it is a good
idea to backup the $DLC/progress.cfg file prior to
installing addl. products.
8. Enter 'Y' after you have entered all products you wish to install.
9. Select 'T' for Select Type of Installation.
10. Select 'Custom Install'.
11. Select 'D' to change the tape device name. Note that you should
always check the tape device name since the default is, in most cases,
incorrect.
12. Enter the rewind and no rewind device names. See Appendix B in
the Installation Notes.
13. Select 'D' to Select Destination Pathname.
14. Enter the destination path of where the existing Progress software
is installed or accept the default location /usr/dlc. If Progress is
installed in /usr1/7_3A06/dlc, then enter /usr1/7_3A06/dlc.
15. Select 'Install the PROGRESS products in the pre-existing
destination path' to install the add-on products in the original
working directory.
16. Select 'Y' to confirm installation of add-on products in the
original working directory.
17. Select 'I' to Continue with the Installation.
18. An asterisk is displayed next to the products chosen to be
installed. Select 'I' to Install selected products.
19. Select 'Y' to confirm installation of the selected products.
20. By default, the scripts are installed in /usr/bin to enable all
users access to the scripts. Make note that by default, /usr/bin is
in your path. This means if you install the scripts in a directory
other than /usr/bin, you must make sure that $DLC/bin is added to
your path. Refer to the Installation Notes for setting up your
environment. If Progress is installed in /usr1/73A06/dlc, Select 'N'
to "Install scripts in /usr/bin".
21 The installation program is now restoring all the necessary files
required to run the products you selected. This can take anywhere
from 10 min. to 1 hour depending on the number of products chosen and
the speed of the tape drive.
22. Select 'E' to End the Progress Installation. The installation
is now complete. For information on setting up the user environment
for each product, refer to Chapter 3 in the Installation Notes.
