This chapter contains information you need to know about installation of
the SNA link products.
To run an SNA link product on the HP e3000, you must install
the product, and then your Hewlett-Packard support contact must configure
your HP e3000 environment to support the product.
Before the Hewlett-Packard support contact arrives to do the
minimum configuration of the SNA link product on the HP e3000, you
must do these things:
Ensure that the remote system has the required hardware and software
as listed in Chapter 1 “SNA Links Overview ” in this manual.
Ensure that the remote system has been configured
according to the procedures detailed in the ACF/NCP and
ACF/VTAM Guide Host System Programmer's Reference or
the AS/400 Guide Host System Programmer's Reference.
Obtain a copy of the new remote system configuration
listing; your Hewlett-Packard support contact will need this information
later during the minimum configuration of the SNA link product.
Ensure that the modem link between the HP e3000
and the remote system is operational.
Ensure that the HP e3000 is at the proper release
level.
Use the AUTOINST utility to load the SNA link product
software. See the HP e3000 MPE XL Installation and Update
Manual or the HP e3000 MPE XL Add-On Manual for
more information.
Run NMMAINT to ensure that all of the necessary
software modules have been successfully installed by AUTOINST and
are at the correct version levels.
After you do these installation tasks, your Hewlett-Packard
support contact installs the PSI card and completes the minimum
configuration required to verify minimum SNA link product functionality.
