Jason .... working through the Compaq Product Support group they received a
response back from Tivoli stating that Frameworks 3.1.3 is not Y2K ready.
Compaq is saying that nothing newer than v3.1.3 is Digital UNIX ready.
I'm just curious about whether you are acutally running a DIgital UNIX
machine with a newer version of Frameworks or whether you you were just
looking at the software media itself. Apparently there is a v3.1.4 that
is Y2K ready, but may not be Digital UNIX ready. Would you have any
knowledge of that?
If there are any users running on Digital UNIX with Netview 5.1.1 I would
be interested in your experiences and would like to know what versions of
Frameworks others are using. Appreciate the help.

Hmm - well as James would say... time to call support! Sorry I can't be of

more assistance than that

Jason ... checked as you suggested but the files
$IMDIR/BUNDLE/DIR021/FNM04X.HLD do not exist on our media.

Harry/Vince - when I look at my WPREINST.SH script, I see the following
ln -s $IMDIR/BUNDLE/DIR021/FNM043.HLD $CLONEDIR/./bin/osf-axp/sapack
ln -s $IMDIR/BUNDLE/DIR021/FNM044.HLD $CLONEDIR/./bin/osf-axp/wserver_cli
ln -s $IMDIR/BUNDLE/DIR021/FNM045.HLD $CLONEDIR/./bin/osf-axp/wserver_gui
you don't see this in your WPREINST.SH? Perhaps you could try creating
these
links from the command line and then try the install again. I am not sure
why
your script would not have this. I am looking at an image server and not
the GA
CD so there might be some discrepancy but I don't think they would have
changed
this script for the CD image...

Jason,
We have done essentially the same thing, the directory name we used are the
ones suggested in the installation manuals.
We get an error when we run the ./wserver -c /cdrom command because it is
unable to find the wserver_gui file. When I review the WPREINST.SH script,
the script we have does not create a soft link for this file. It does so
for HPUX. Solaris etc.. but does not seem to do so for the "tier 2"
vendors.
Thanks
Harry

Vince - where are you running the wpreinst.sh script from? Here is the
steps I
would take on my own DEC server... (assume Tivoli code is in a mounted
directory /cdrom)
mkdir /tmp/tivinst
cd /tmp/tivinst
/cdrom/WPREINST.SH
this comes back with the following message:
"to install, type ./wserver -c /cdrom"
so I type this: ./wserver -c /cdrom
and a setup GUI pops up...
are you getting this far?

Jason ... we are performing our install on Digital UNIX v4.0d and in
English. Following the suggested install sequence we first run
wpinstall.sh. The second step is to run wserver, but it returns the error
message: "wserver. /usr/local.Tivoli/install_dir/bin/osf-axp/wserver_gui:
not found" It appears that when we run the wpinstall.sh that it is not
creating the softlink required to osf wserver.gui or the libraries. Hope
I've explained this so it makes sense.

Let's back up a bit then... where is the 3.6 installation failing? You
mention
the scripts not being complete? Give us some more information about this -
what
level of DEC are you using? Are you running in English or another locale
(I am
assuming English since you are going to install NetView)

The software was ordered specifically for the Digital UNIX install so I'm
assuming they shipped the proper software. Is there some way to confirm
what you mention? Another user has replied that our version 3.1.3 is not
Y2K compliant, this being the case will have to try and resolve the v3.6
install problems. Thanks!

Vince - keep in mind Digital UNIX is a Tivoli Tier2 platform - therefore
you
must use a different Framework install image (than you would use for AIX or
Solaris) make sure you are installing from the Tivoli Tier2 framework CD's

We are currently installing Netview on a Digital (Compaq) UNIX box
upgrading from v4.1. We are unable to install Frameworks 3.6 as the
scripts do not appear complete the Digital UNIX install. We worked around
this by installing Frameworks 3.1.3. Does anyone know if there are
problems running with this version of Frameworks? Are there problems or
Y2K compliancy issues with this version? Our primary reason for doing
the 4.1 to 5.1.1 upgrade is for Y2K compliancy reasons and our customer
requires the reassurance that any new software installed is Y2K compliant.
Thanks!
