Installing Ingres on OpenVMS
How You Install and Configure Ingres (First Time Installers)
The process for installing and configuring Ingres for OpenVMS for the first time on a node is as follows:
This step copies the contents of the distribution onto your system in the correct locations with the correct permissions. If using the Express Install, it also automatically sets required configuration parameters for installed components to default values.
This step sets required configuration parameters for installed components.
Note: On a cluster installation, the setup programs must be run on every node. However, after completing the install and setup phase on just one node, you can start Ingres to test your installation. When you are satisfied with the results, you should shut down the installation and complete the setup programs on the other nodes.
This step starts Ingres on your system so the system administrator can access it.
5. Customize your installation.
This step sets optional configuration parameters to allow Ingres to run as desired.
6. Prepare Ingres for general use.
In this step, you perform additional tasks needed to prepare Ingres for its users, such as creating an automatic boot command, authorizing users, and creating databases.
