2. Example Procedures

 

This chapter contains example procedures that show the prompts you encounter when registering the PAK and during the installation procedure. The user responses, which appear in bold typeface, are provided only to illustrate how you may respond. Do not use these responses for your installation! Use the configuration information you gathered in Step 1 of Chapter 1.

Installing a License PAK

This section presents an example dialog showing how to use the VMSLICENSE REGISTER option with a PAK (Product Authorization Key).

Sample Installation Dialog

This section contains two examples of MultiNet installation procedures:

·         The sample New Installation shows a new installation from CD-ROM. (Some messages may vary with the operating system version.)

·         The sample Upgrade Installation shows how to upgrade from an older version of MultiNet to the current release. (Some messages may vary with the operating system version.) You must reboot your system after upgrading the software.
