Building the Message Server Database

System parameters and customer-provided information are entered in the message server memory
through a terminal and a two-part configuration program. Use the INSTALL program to enter
information for new installations; use the UPDATE program for verification and to change the
configuration database. This section is an overview of the software installation. Refer to the INSTALL
chapter for detailed directions for all steps.
Using INSTALL — Entering the Configuration Database

you to enter the password. After a valid password is entered, begin the INSTALL program. At the @
prompt, enter
INSTA
When prompted, enter data as described in the INSTALL chapter to define the database.
Answer Y when the Octel 200/300 asks whether you want to save the configuration to diskette. The
