To mount a CD enter the following commands:

su
mkdir /cdrom (or some other mount point)
mount -t cdrom -o noversion /dev/pdsk/pdsk_num /cdrom

where pdsk_num (a numeric value) is listed in the table found in /etc/devlinktab.

Tunable Parameters

You will probably need to reconfigure the DG/UX kernel before running BEA TUXEDO because the default values of some kernel parameters are too low. For instructions about reconfiguring, rebuilding and rebooting DG/UX, see the DG/UX System documentation. The following parameters may need to be increased.

Mounting a CD requires the type "CDFS." Because CDFS is a configurable kernel option, the following line must exist in the system configuration file:

options CDFS

If the system configuration file does not contain this line, modify the file and then rebuild the kernel.

To mount a CD, enter the following commands:

su
mkdir /cdrom
/usr/sbin/mount -r -t cdfs -o noversion /dev/rzunit #c /cdrom

where unit # is the unit number of your CD-ROM drive.

In almost all cases, the unit number of the CD-ROM drive on a new system is 4 (i.e., /dev/rz4c). However, to ensure that you have the correct unit number of the drive, do this:

su
file /dev/rrz*c

The output will identify the CD-ROM drive as an RRD disk. The unit number of the drive will be in the left-hand column. For example,

/dev/rrz4c: character special (8/4098) SCSI #0 RRD43 disk #32 (SCSI ID #4)

Tunable Parameters

You will probably need to reconfigure the kernel before running BEA TUXEDO because the default values of some kernel parameters are too low. For instructions about reconfiguring, rebuilding, and rebooting, see the following documentation from Digital: the doconfig(8) reference page and the System Tuning and Performance Management manual.

To determine the current value of a tunable parameter, examine the kernel configuration file located in the /sys/conf directory. This file typically has the same name as the system (node) name.

To change the value of a tunable parameter, follow the instructions on the dmconfig reference page.

To specify the value of a parameter that was previously unspecified, add a line such as

semmni 256 

(where semmni is the name of the parameter and 256, its value) to the kernel configuration file.

Platform-Specific Notes

All BEA TUXEDO files that contain file names (such as TUXCONFIG) must use the native OpenVMS format. File specifications can be separated by a comma (,). For example, APPDIR might be specified as

APPDIR="DKA100:[TUXEDO.APPS.SIMPAPP],DKA100:[TUXEDO.APPS.QSAMP]"

OpenVMS has several naming conventions. The following table lists valid file extensions and shows how they are interpreted by OpenVMS and by the BEA TUXEDO system.

Use This Extension For This Type of File

.C

C source file

.COB

COBOL source file

.COM

Script containing DCL commands that will be run by the command interpreter

.CPY

COBOL copy file

.EXE

Binary executable file or shared library (executable image)

.H

C header file

.OLB

Binary static object library

.OPT

File in which you can specify options (such as functions to be exported from a library) that will be used by the linker

.VV

Binary view file compiled with viewc(1) or viewc32(1)

Tunable Parameters

GBLSECTIONS should be increased by 1.

GBLPAGES and GBLPAGFIL need to be increased. To determine the appropriate amount of the increase, use the following formula: 8MB/page_size. On Alpha machines the default page size is 8192; increase GBLPAGES by 1024.

Platform-Specific Notes

To mount a CD, examine the file /etc/vfstab to determine whether there is a standard place in which to mount a CD. If so, type the mount command and specify the directory named in the /etc/vfstab entry. For example,

su
/etc/mount /cdrom

mounts a CD if /etc/vfstab contains an entry that specifies /cdrom as the mount point for CDs.

If there is no CD-ROM entry, execute

su
mkdir /cdrom
/etc/mount -F cdfs -r cd_device /cdrom

where cd_device is the name of the CD-ROM device file, typically /dev/cd0.

None of the sample applications provided with BEA TUXEDO run on a DS/90 platform on which Fujitsu COBOL 85 compiler is used. You can tailor the CSIMPAPP application to run, however, by making the following changes:

To mount a CD, enter the following commands:

su
mkdir /cdrom
/etc/mount -F cdfs -r -o nmconv=m cd_device /cdrom

where cd_device is the name of the CD-ROM device file, such as /dev/dsk/c0t0d0s0.

Tunable Parameters

You will probably need to reconfigure the kernel before running the BEA TUXEDO system because the default values of some IPC parameters are too low. For instructions on reconfiguring, rebuilding, and rebooting, see the UnixWare System Performance Administration Guide and the idtune(1) and idbuild(1) entries in a UNIX system reference manual. You may need to increase the following parameters.

To change the value of a tunable parameter, complete the following procedure.

  1. Acquite superuser privileges.

    su root

  2. Determine (by running the idtune command) the current default value of the tunable parameter to be changed.

    /etc/conf/bin/idtune -g param

    The output of idtune lists current, default, minimum, and maximum valid values.

  3. Change the parameter's value:

    /etc/conf/bin/idtune param new-value

  4. If idtune fails because new-value exceeds the maximum allowed value, you must increase the maximum. (The maximum values of some parameters are set unnecessarily low in some releases of UnixWare.) To do this, edit /etc/conf/mtune.d/type, where type is shm, sem, or msg. Change the maximum value (in the last column) to the desired maximum.

  5. Rebuild the operating system and reboot:

    /etc/conf/bin/idbuild -B
    cd /
    shutdown -y -g0 -i6

  6. Execute idtune again and supply the desired new-value.

  7. Run idbuild to build a new kernel.

    /etc/conf/bin/idbuild -B
    cd /
    shutdown -y -g0 -i6

  8. Reboot your system.

To determine the value of a tunable parameter, examine the file /etc/conf/cf.d/stune.

To change the value of a tunable parameter, become superuser and then invoke sysadmsh, the system administration tool. Select System, then Configure, then Kernel, then Parameters, which allows you to interactively modify the values of kernel parameters. Do not set MSGMAX or MSGMNB above 32767; the message primitives don't work correctly if these values are set higher. When all changes are complete, select Rebuild to rebuild the kernel. Then reboot the system.

Platform-Specific Notes

To mount a CD, execute the following from the command line:

su
mkdir /cdrom1
mount -F cdfs -r -o nmconv=m cd-device /cdrom1

To determine the value of cd-device, execute

devattr cdrom1 bdevice

You can also mount a CD from the Desktop environment. From the UnixWare Desktop window, open the Disks-etc Folder Window by double-clicking on the Disks-etc icon. Then, from the Disks-etc window double-click on the cdrom1 icon, which mounts the CD and displays its contents in the /cdrom1 Folder Window. When you close the /cdrom1 Folder Window, the CD is automatically unmounted.

UnixWare 7 typically defines /var/tmp as an in-memory file system. Because /var/tmp is used by the install script to unspool packages from the CD you should set (and export) TMPDIR to point to a directory with enough free space to accommodate the unspooling.

To share (export) a CD so that it can be accessed as a shared file system using NFS, execute

su
share -o ro mount-point

where mount-point is the full pathname of the directory where the CD is mounted. The directory /cdrom1 is the standard mount point for a CD. After a CD has been shared and mounted, a remote system can access the CD by mounting it as an NFS file system. For example, on another UnixWare system the appropriate commands are

su
mkdir /cdrom1
mount -F nfs server:/cdrom1 /cdrom1

where server is the node name of the UnixWare system with the directly-connected CD-ROM device.

Tunable Parameters

You will probably need to reconfigure the UnixWare kernel before running the BEA TUXEDO system because the default values of some IPC parameters are too low.

To change the value of a tunable parameter, complete the following procedure.

  1. Acquite superuser privileges.

    su root

  2. Determine (by running the idtune command) the current default value of the tunable parameter to be changed.

    /etc/conf/bin/idtune -g param

    The output of idtune lists current, default, minimum, and maximum valid values.

  3. Change the parameter's value:

    /etc/conf/bin/idtune param new-value

  4. If idtune fails because new-value exceeds the maximum allowed value, you must increase the maximum. (The maximum values of some parameters are set unnecessarily low in some releases of UnixWare.) To do this, edit /etc/conf/mtune.d/type, where type is shm, sem, or msg. Change the maximum value (in the last column) to the desired maximum.

  5. Rebuild the operating system and reboot:

    /etc/conf/bin/idbuild -B
    cd /
    shutdown -y -g0 -i6

  6. Execute idtune again and supply the desired new-value.

  7. Run idbuild to build a new kernel.

    /etc/conf/bin/idbuild -B
    cd /
    shutdown -y -g0 -i6

  8. Reboot your system.

Briefly, the procedure for changing the value of a tunable parameter is as follows:

  1. After acquiring superuser privileges, determine the current value of the tunable parameter to be changed. The output lists current, default, minimum, and maximum valid values.

         su root
    /etc/conf/bin/idtune -g param

  2. Change the parameter's value.

         /etc/conf/bin/idtune param new-value

  3. Run idbuild to build a new kernel; then reboot.

         /etc/conf/bin/idbuild -B
