1.5 Before You Install
1. Read through all sections of this installation guide and the release
notes carefully before proceeding. If you have any questions or
problems, call Raining Data Customer Support in Irvine at 949-261-
1875 or call your local office.
If this is a new installation, proceed to Step 7.
If this is an upgrade to an existing installation, proceed to Step 2.
2. Ensure that all users are logged off and that phantoms and printers
are inactive.
3. If you are performing a complete database save and restore, examine
your file sizing and perform any necessary reallocations at this time.
Inappropriately allocated files reduce performance and reduce
database integrity under fault conditions.
4. Remove any EXEC command from the GLOBAL-LOGON PROC
in the LIBRARY account.
5. If performing a complete database save and restore, execute the base
save and any account save threads.
6. Perform a SHUTDOWN from mvEnterprise to shut down all
processes. (SHUTDOWN is the recommended procedure for
bringing mvEnterprise down.)
Proceed to “Installation Instructions.”
7. For a new installation, it is necessary to acquire an mvEnterprise
configuration control code from Raining Data Customer Support at
the number listed above. This code is unique to your machine and
contains the maximum number of mvEnterprise processes
(excluding Phantoms) for which you are licensed and authorized to
run at one time. Without this code, the installation cannot be
completed.
8. Configure the System environment for mvEnterprise. Refer to
Section 2 “Configuring The System for mvEnterprise on AIX”. This
