Step 12. Choose a Node-Specific Directory Location

The manager’s system specific files are installed to NSCHED$EXE on a system specific disk. The installation procedure asks for the device where the node-specific directory will be located. The default answer is SYS$COMMON. The directory must not be in use by a manager instance on another node of the cluster. In most cases, this is a good choice (for more details, see "Installing on an OpenVMS Cluster" in this guide).

* Enter the full pathname for CA Job Management - node specific files 
  [SYS$COMMON:[NSCHED]]:
  Selected pathname: SYS$COMMON:[NSCHED]
* Is that correct [Y]?

Note: On a standalone system, the prompt still refers to a cluster common directory. You may choose to install the common and specific files to the same directory. However, we recommend choosing a directory that is part of SYS$COMMON, which makes it easier to add this system to a cluster in the future.

Directories [DATA] and [COM] will be created under the path you specify. All data and common files are moved to these directories. Logical names NSCHED$DATA and NSCHED$COM will be associated accordingly.

Note: Directory [EXE] will be created under the path you specify. All the executable files will be moved to this [EXE] directory. Logical name NSCHED$EXE will be associated with this directory.
