Installing CA Gen on NonStop › Transfer and Unpack Installation Files

Transfer and Unpack Installation Files

You access files on the installation media for the Implementation Toolset (IT) and move them to the location for the installation.

Follow these steps:

1. Access the files on the installation media and use a file transport utility, such as FTP, to transfer the NSKIT archive file and the UNPACKIT macro to the location for IT installation on NonStop. Ensure that you transfer the NSKIT file in binary mode and the UNPACKIT file in ASCII mode.
2. Log on to the NonStop server and change the volume and subvolume to the location where you transferred the contents of the installation media.
3. Enter the following command to expand the packed file at the TACL prompt:

   run unpackit
   

   UNPACKIT prompts you to enter Y to continue running UNPACKIT, or enter X to exit. If you continue, it prompts you to accept a default location or specify the volume and subvolume to use to unpack the NSKIT file.

4. Press Enter to unpack files to the default $<vol>.<subvol> location, or specify another volume and subvolume to use.

   The script displays a message stating unpacking is complete and lists the default file security and userid/username for installation files.

5. Respond to the prompts that display for viewing and changing or accepting the default file security and userid/username for installation files:
   • To accept the default file security for read, write, execute, and purge access to files installed, press Enter.
   • To specify different file security, type Y and type the values for the file security. Use the format in the prompt.
   • The NonStop user ID used to log in displays as the default for file ownership. To accept the default user ID displayed, press Enter.
   • To assign ownership of the IT files to a different NonStop userid/username, enter Y. Type the user ID and User Name in the format that is shown and press Enter.
