Figure 49: Closing the System Doors 1. Push gently at the top right of the upper door and the bottom right of the lower door. 2. Turn the key to the middle position (both doors locked) or to the top position (upper door unlocked). 15 After Installation Digital strongly recommends that you run the diagnostic software for your system before you install system software or start factory-installed software the first time. The diagnostics: · Verify the system configuration. · Check to see if each device is working properly. 68 VAX 4000 Model 300 Installation The diagnostic software is on a tape cartridge labeled MV DIAG CUST TK50. Your system Troubleshooting and Diagnostics manual tells you how to run the diagnostic software. You should now read your system Operation manual to learn how to use the system. You must know how to operate the system controls and the ISE or tape drive before you install system software or run diagnostic software. If you have factory-installed software on your system, see Appendix A for the startup procedure. Otherwise, install the software that you ordered with your system. NOTE: Systems with VMS factory-installed software have a yellow sticker on the front panel of the ISE containing that software. VAX 4000 Model 300 Installation 69 Appendix A Starting and Modifying VMS Factory-Installed Software ------------------------------------------------------------ This appendix tells you how to start and modify VMS factory-installed software (FIS), which is on your system disk if you ordered one or more ISEs. FIS must be modified to accommodate customized passwords and system environment particulars. You make the modifications during a startup procedure that is executed when you start FIS the first time. The requirements for modifying FIS depend on how your system will be used. For example, your system can be configured as a: · Standalone system · Dual-host system · Simple VAXcluster network · System in a more complex VAXcluster network with distributed resource sharing and sophisticated disk management CAUTION: If you want to modify FIS to obtain a dual-host or VAXcluster system, you should have a good understanding of DSSI architecture and VAXcluster software operation. If you do not have that understanding, you should read the manuals listed in Section A.1 or call your Digital service representative. A.1 Pre-Startup Requirements Before you begin the startup procedure, you should: 1. Determine how your system will be configured. 2. Read through the startup procedure to make sure you have the correct information to enter for your configuration. Starting and Modifying VMS Factory-Installed Software A-1 3. If your system will be part of a cluster or network, ask your network coordinator or system administrator for your system: DECnet node name DECnet node address Cluster group number Cluster password 4. If you are not familiar with networking and clustering, examine the following manuals. VMS VAXcluster Manual Guide to DECnet-VAX Networking VMS Networking Manual A.2 Startup Procedure If you have a dual-host system, you can start with either host. 1. Enter the console mode. a. Set the Power switch to off (0). b. Set the Break Enable/Disable switch to enable (up). c. Set the Power switch to on (1). Wait for your system to complete its self-tests and display the console prompt (>>>). 2. Make sure the system disk is on line and is not write-protected. · The Run/Ready button should be in (lit). · The Write-Protect button should be out (not lit). 3. If your system will be configured as a cluster with a nonzero allocation class, see your system Operation manual for information on how to program parameters for ISEs. 4. Define the system disk as the default boot device. If the ISE with the FIS is in your system: >>> SET BOOT DIA0 ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------ Return ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------ If the ISE with the FIS is in an expander connected to Bus 1 (for example, an R400X expander): A-2 VAX 4000 Model 300 Installation >>> SET BOOT DIB0 ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------ Return ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------ 5. Boot the FIS. >>> BOOT ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------ Return ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------ 6.

See the VMS Installation and Operations Manual for more information on entering PAKs, customizing and testing your system, startup and shutdown, and backup procedures. In a VAXcluster network, queues for printer and batch processing operations can be configured to work on other systems in the cluster. See your network coordinator for details of queues that are available in your network. If you are setting up a new network, see the VMS VAXcluster Manual for a discussion on setting up remote printer and batch processing queues. You can use the NETCONFIG.COM command procedure to include your system in a network, provided you have the appropriate software licenses and PAKs. See the VMS VAXcluster Manual, the Guide to DECnet-VAX Networking, and the VMS Networking Manual for more information. A.2.3 Modifying FIS for a Complex Network or Dual-Host System In a complex network or dual-host system you may want to enter the disk allocation class and quorum disk information for the network. That information lets disks be shared on a selective basis between some systems on the network. Quorum disk information also allows more rigorous definition of cluster operations during the removal of systems from the network. In addition, queues for printer and batch processing operations can be set up, allowing work to be executed on other systems in the network. Starting and Modifying VMS Factory-Installed Software A-11 See the VMS VAXcluster Manual, the Guide to DECnet-VAX Networking, and the VMS Networking Manual for information on setting up systems as members of complex networks and setting up remote printer and batch processing queues. A.2.3.1 Configuring for Dual-Host Systems The VMS Installation and Operations manual tells you how to configure a dual-host system for cluster operation. You can set up the system for operation as a: · Pair of boot servers for a new local area cluster to which you intend to add satellites · Two-node cluster to which you do not intend to add satellites · Pair of boot servers that you want to add to an existing cluster NOTE: You must assign the same allocation class to both systems and to the ISEs. The allocation class must be different from that of other systems and hierarchical storage controllers (HSCs) in a cluster. Refer to your system Operation manual for information on setting parameters for ISEs. The following software licenses are required to configure a dual-host system. ------------------------------------------------------------ Host A Host B ------------------------------------------------------------ VMS VMS VAXcluster VAXcluster DECnet full-function DECnet end-node ------------------------------------------------------------ A.2.3.2 Checking Your Modification Work You can use two commands to check your work after you modify FIS for a dual-host system. · Use SHOW DEVICE D to list the ISEs. Make sure the number of ISEs listed matches the number in your dual-host system. Too many ISEs indicates an incorrect allocation class setting for an ISE. Too few ISEs indicates an incorrect unit number for an ISE. · Use SHOW DEVICE DI/FULL to check that the alternate host name for your dual-host system is displayed.
