This section explains the installation procedure prompts and displays.
You must specify which of the PSE subsets you want to load. There may be more optional subsets than can be presented on a single screen. If this is the case, you can choose subsets screen by screen or all at once on the last screen. All of the choices you make will be collected for your confirmation before any subsets are installed.
For example:
The subsets listed below are optional:
1) Digital PVM V1.90 Base
2) Digital PVM V1.90 Supplementary Documentation
3) MPI Version 1.90 Binary
Or you may choose one of the following options:
4) ALL of the above
5) CANCEL selections and redisplay menus
6) EXIT without installing any subsets
Press RETURN to display the next screen:
Enter your choices or press RETURN to redisplay menus.
Choices (for example, 1 2 4-6): 4
To specify more than one number at the prompt, separate each number with a space, not a comma.
Next, the script lets you verify your choice. For example, if you
enter 1-3 in response to the previous prompt, the
following is displayed:
You are installing the following optional subsets:
Digital PVM V1.90 Base
Digital PVM V1.90 Supplementary Documentation
MPI Version 1.90 Binary
Is this correct? (y/n):
If the displayed subsets are not the ones you intended to choose,
enter n . In this case, the subset selection menu again
displays and you can correct your choice of optional subsets.
If the displayed subsets are the ones you want to load, enter
y .
The installation procedure loads and verifies the selected PSE subsets.
When you see the "Verifying" message during the subset installation, the installation procedure is checking to see that the files are copied correctly; it is not an Installation Verification Procedure (IVP) message.
During the installation, if you get errors from the setld facility, see the Diagnostics section of the setld(8) reference page for an explanation of the errors and the appropriate actions to take.
Digital recommends running an IVP (Installation Verification Procedure) after installation. For instructions on running the IVP, refer to the appropriate section(s):
In Example 4-1, all the PSE subsets are loaded from CD-ROM.
Checking file system space required to install selected subsets:
File system space checked OK.
3 subset(s) will be installed.
