Installing Q-Vet

The procedures for installation of Q-Vet differ between operating
systems. You must install Q-Vet on each partition in the system.
Install and run Q-Vet from the SYSTEM account on VMS and the root account
on UNIX. Remember to install Q-Vet in each partition.
Tru64 UNIX
1. Make sure that there are no old Q-Vet or DECVET kits on the system by
using the following command:
setld -i
|
grep
Note the names of any listed kits, such as OTKBASExxx etc., and remove
the kits using qvet_uninstall if possible. Otherwise use the command
setld -d
kit1_name
2. Copy the kit tar file (QVET_Vxxx.tar) to your system.
3. Be sure that there is no directory named output. If so move to another
directory or remove the output directory.
rm -r output
4. Untar the kit with the command
tar xvf
QVET_Vxxx.tar
Note: The case of the file name may be different depending upon how it was
stored on the system. Also, you may need to enclose the file name in
quotation marks if a semi-colon is used.
5. Install the kit with the command
setld -l
output
6. During the install, if you intend to use the GUI you must select the optional
GUI subset (QVETXOSFxxx).
7. The Q-Vet installation will size your system for devices and memory. It also
runs qvet_tune. You should answer 'y' to the questions that are asked
about setting parameters. If you do not, you may have trouble running
Q-Vet. After the installation completes, you should delete the output
directory with rm -r output. You can also delete the kit tar file.
8. You must reboot the system before starting Q-Vet.
9. On reboot you can start Q-Vet GUI via vet& or you can run non GUI
(command line) via vet –nw.
