Installing the BEA eLink OSI TP Product

 

This section covers the following information:

 


Pre-Installation Considerations

Complete the following tasks prior to installing the eLink OSI TP product:

Configuring the Environment to Install eLink OSI TP

Before installing the eLink OSI TP product, you must ensure that the BEA Tuxedo system is installed and configured properly for your environment. Refer to your Tuxedo documentation for more information about setting the Tuxedo environment variables. In addition to the Tuxedo environment variables, the BEA eLink OSI TP system requires an additional environment variable, OSIRUNDIR, before you can boot the gateway or run the osiadmin utility. Refer to the BEA eLink OSI TP User Guide for more information about the osiadmin utility. If you do not set the OSIRUNDIR environment variable before you boot the gateway, you will receive a message telling you to set OSIRUNDIR. This environment variable specifies the path that the eLink gateway uses for runtime files. You can set the OSIRUNDIR environment variable through a script, a command line entry, or, for Windows 2000 operating systems, through the Windows System Properties in the Control Panel. The variable value should include the path and directory as appropriate for your operating system.

 


Upgrading from eLink OSI TP 1.3

If you are upgrading from eLink OSI TP 1.3 to 4.1 or 4.2, you must modify your existing dmconfig file to be compatible with the new eLink OSI TP format. The osiadmin utility performs this upgrade automatically with the importcfg command. It is recommended that you use the osiadmin utility, but you may also upgrade by manually editing your dmconfig file. Refer to the BEA eLink OSI TP User Guide for more information about using the osiadmin utility and about manually editing the dmconfig file.

BEA eLink OSI TP 4.1 or 4.2 is a full replacement for eLink OSI TP 1.3 and the Unisys Protocol Stack (OSI TP and ULS). ULS on UNIX-based systems and eLink OSI TP 4.1 or 4.2 both use port 102 by default. Consider this default setting when configuring the port number of your updated dmconfig file. Beginning with eLink OSI TP 4.1, you can configure a port number other than 102. This option allows you to run your eLink OSI TP 1.3 gateway while you are upgrading. If you will be using port 102 in your version 4.1 or 4.2 dmconfig file, you must shutdown ULS before attempting to tmboot eLink OSI TP 4.1 or 4.2. If you are running eLink OSI TP 1.3, uninstall eLink OSI TP and the Unisys OSI TP protocol stack including the Unisys Upper Layer Services.

When you are upgrading from a previous release of the eLink OSI TP product, you must shut down all Domain administrative and gateway servers within an application domain, particularly the following:

 


Upgrading from eLink OSI TP 4.0

If you are upgrading from eLink OSI TP 4.0, you need not modify your udmconfig input file. Perform a dmloadcf of the udmconfig file to create the dmconfig binary file, BDMCONFIG. If you are running eLink OSI TP 4.0, uninstall eLink OSI TP 4.0

Note: Beginning with eLink OSI TP 4.1, the version 4.0 udmloadcf utility, the BUDMCONFIG binary file and the eLink OSI TP Administrative Server UDADM no longer exist. The function performed by the version 4.0 udmloadcf command is now done by the version 4.1 or 4.2 dmloadcf command. The information contained in the version 4.0 BUDMCONFIG file is now incorporated within the version 4.1 or 4.2 BDMCONFIG file. If your ubbconfig contains the UDMADM Server, delete it and perform a tmloadcf of the modified ubbconfig file.

 


Installing BEA eLink OSI TP on a UNIX-Based Operating System

This section explains how to install the BEA eLink OSI TP product on the following execution platforms:

To install the eLink OSI TP product, you run the install.sh script. This script installs all the necessary software components.

Warning: For UNIX-based operating systems, if you are installing in silent mode the BEA Tuxedo system should be installed first and the eLink OSI TP product should be installed within the same directory. Use the mkdir command to create the directory where you wish to install BEA Tuxedo and the eLink OSI TP product BEFORE you perform your installations. If you do not create the directory first, you will receive an Installation Complete message after you install BEA Tuxedo, but Tuxedo will not be installed. Make sure that you have installed the Tuxedo 8 license before you install the eLink OSI TP product.

Perform the following steps to install the eLink OSI TP product on a supported UNIX platform:

  1. Log on to your UNIX platform and access the CD-ROM device.
    # ls -1 /dev/cdrom
    total 0
    brw-rw-rw-     1 root     sys     22,   0 January 5 10:55 c1b0t010

  2. Mount the CD-ROM with the following mount instruction if you are installing on an AIX operating system.The CD-ROM mounts automatically on Solaris.
    # mount -r -F cdfs /dev/cdrom/c1b0t0l0 /mnt

    Use the following mount instruction if you are installing on an HP-UX operating system:

    # mount -r -F cdfs -o cdcase /dev/cdrom/c1b0t010 /mnt 

  3. Change the directory to your CD-ROM device.
    # cd /mnt

  4. List the CD-ROM contents.
    # ls
    install.sh  hp ibm sun5x uw  windows

  5. Execute the installation script.
    # sh ./install.sh

  6. The installation script runs and prompts you for responses.
