Users on the system where Compaq Fortran is being installed can use reference pages that are nfs mounted from another system. If so, consider loading the reference pages subsets only on the other system (not the system where you are installing Compaq Fortran).
When reference pages are nfs mounted on another system, do not request the DFACOMnnn and DFADOCnnn subsets during the Compaq Fortran installation. After the installation is complete, you can log in to the system where the reference pages are installed and load only the Compaq Fortran DFACOMnnn and DFADOCnnn subsets on that system.
In addition to being supplied with Compaq Fortran, some or all of these subsets are included on the Compaq Tru64 UNIX operating system CD-ROM distribution media (see Section 3.3).
For information about loading specific subsets, see the setld(8) reference page.
1.4.5 Determining Disk Space Requirements
Table 1-2 lists the disk space requirements for loading Compaq Fortran software subsets. These disk space requirements are approximate; the values apply to the disks where you load the Compaq Fortran subsets. The disk space requirements are listed by directory, in case you are doing installations on systems where these directories are mount points for different disk partitions.

Using these disk space requirements, total the values for the subsets you will load in each directory.
Compare the space required for subsets with the free space currently on the disks where Compaq Fortran files will reside.
If you need precise information on the sizes of individual
Compaq Fortran files in the various directories, view the file
/usr/lib/cmplrs/fort90/filelist
(Fortran 90) or the file
/usr/lib/cmplrs/fort/filelist
(Fortran 77).
1.4.5.1 Checking Current Disk Space
To check the current amount of free space for a directory path, log in to the system where you will install Compaq Fortran. You can check which directories are mounted and where they are by viewing the /etc/fstab file. For example:
# more /etc/fstab /dev/rd0a:/:rw:1:1:ufs:: /dev/rd0g:/usr:rw:1:2:ufs:: /usr/staff/r1/leslie@bigsys:/usr/staff/r1/leslie:rw:0:0:nfs:bg: /usr/man@bigsys:/usr/man:ro:0:0:nfs:bg: |
This display indicates the following:
To check total space and free space for the directories where Compaq Fortran files will reside, enter the df command. In the case of the previous display of the /etc/fstab file, which shows that only /usr is a mount point, you need to check free space only in the /usr file system. You can do so as follows:
# df /usr Filesystem Total kbytes kbytes % node kbytes used free used Mounted on /dev/rd0g 122598 54447 55892 49% /usr |
The device names shown in this section are for Tru64 UNIX Version 4 systems. For Tru64 UNIX Version 5 systems, the device names may be different.
This display indicates there are 55892 Kbytes free. This free space must accommodate the subset requirements listed in Table 1-2.
On systems where /usr/lib and /usr/man are mounted to different devices from /usr , enter the following command:
# df /usr/lib /usr/man |
In this case, you would:
The Compaq Fortran installation procedure creates some directories and loads files into subordinate directories, as listed in either of the following files:
/usr/lib/cmplrs/fort90/filelist /usr/lib/cmplrs/fort/filelist |
If the /usr/lib/cmplrs directory does not exist, the Compaq Fortran installation procedure creates it. If this directory does exist, the installation procedure uses it.
If you find that there is insufficient disk space for the Compaq Fortran subsets and if you know that there is additional space on other disks or disk partitions for your system, take the following steps before installing Compaq Fortran:
Someone from your site must perform at least one Compaq Fortran installation from the distribution medium. Your site system administrator can then decide whether or not to make a Compaq Fortran distribution kit available online, so that subsequent installations of Compaq Fortran can use the Remote Installation Service (RIS). For information on extracting Compaq Fortran subsets to a RIS distribution area, see your Compaq Tru64 UNIX system management documentation.
If you expect to use Compaq Fortran subsets from a RIS area of a remote system for installation on your local system, first check with your site system administrator to ensure the following:
For more information on installing Compaq Fortran from a RIS
distribution area, see Section 2.1.2.
1.6 Backing Up Your System Disk
Compaq recommends that you back up your system disk before installing
Compaq Fortran or any software. Use the backup procedures established at
your site. For information about backing up your system disk, see the
Compaq Tru64 UNIX system documentation.
1.7 Stopping the Installation
To stop the installation procedure at any time, enter Ctrl/C. You must then delete files created interactively up to this point. The directories and files created during the Compaq Fortran installation are listed in the following files:
/usr/lib/cmplrs/fort90/filelist /usr/lib/cmplrs/fort/filelist |
If errors occur during the installation, the system displays appropriate error messages. For example, if the installation of the DFABASEnnn subset fails due to insufficient disk space, the installation procedure displays the following message:
There is not enough space for subset DFABASEnnn Compaq Fortran (DFABASEnnn) will not be loaded. |
Errors can occur during the installation if any of the following conditions exist:
For descriptions of error messages generated by these conditions, see the Compaq Tru64 UNIX documentation on system messages and software installation. If any of these conditions exist, take the appropriate action described in the message. For information on system requirements for installing Compaq Fortran, see Section 1.4.3.
If an error occurs while Compaq Fortran is in use and you believe the error is caused by a problem with Compaq Fortran, take one of the following actions:
When you initially contact the CSC, please indicate the following:
When you submit information electronically or are speaking on the phone to the appropriate support specialist, you can provide more detailed information. This includes the specific commands used to compile and link the program, the error messages displayed, and relevant detailed information (possibly including source program listings). Please try to narrow the cause of the problem to a specific module or lines of code.
CSC personnel may ask for additional information, such as listings of any command files, INCLUDE files, relevant data files, and so forth. If the program is longer than 50 lines, submit a copy of it electronically or provide machine-readable media (floppy diskette or magnetic tape). For information about submitting media, see the tar(1) reference page.
Experience shows that problem reports sometimes do not contain enough information to duplicate or identify the problem. Concise, complete information helps Compaq give accurate and timely service to software problems.
If the problem is related to Compaq Fortran documentation, you can use the Internet mail address or FAX number listed on the "Send Us Your Comments" section in the front of this guide.
This chapter describes how to install Compaq Fortran, as follows:
Before you start the installation, read Chapter 1, which describes
the requirements and general options for installing Compaq Fortran using
the media CD-ROM.
2.1 Starting the Installation Procedure
Compaq Fortran can be installed locally (using CD-ROM
media) or from a server area.
2.1.1 Using CD-ROM Software Product Library Media for Local Installations
The installation procedure loads Compaq Fortran files on to a disk belonging to the system where you perform the installation. When Compaq Fortran is run, its executable images are mapped into memory on your system.
Follow these steps to install Compaq Fortran from the Software Products Library CD-ROM set:
# cd / |
# setld -i | egrep 'PSESH|DFA|HPFLIBS' |
# setld -d DFABASEnnn DFADOCnnn HPFLIBSnnn |
# mount -dr /dev/rz1c /mnt |
# ls /mnt/product-directory/kit |
# setld -l /mnt/product-directory/kit |
The installation procedure now displays the names of Compaq Fortran subsets and asks you to specify the subsets you want to load.
See Section 2.2 to continue the installation.
2.1.2 Using a RIS Distribution Area for Remote Installations
If you are installing Compaq Fortran subsets that reside in an /etc/ris (RIS) distribution area on a remote system, follow these steps:
# cd / |
# setld -l orion: |
Remote Installation Services now displays a menu that lists all the software subsets available to you and asks you to specify the subsets you want to load.
See Section 2.2 to continue the installation.
