To mount a CD enter the following commands:
where pdsk_num (a numeric value) is listed in the table found in /etc/devlinktab.
You will probably need to reconfigure the DG/UX kernel before running BEA TUXEDO because the default values of some kernel parameters are too low. For instructions about reconfiguring, rebuilding and rebooting DG/UX, see the DG/UX System documentation. The following parameters may need to be increased.

The following are specific to OpenVMS:
Follow these steps to install BEA TUXEDO OpenVMS /WS from the CD-ROM. Substitute the name of your CD-ROM device for device.
How to Install OpenVMS/WS from a CD-ROM
$mount/media_format=cdrom/undefined_fat=9stream_lf:2048) -
/override=identification device
$copy device:[0000000]tuxinst.com sys$login
$ dismount device

/override=identification device
$ set default device:[000000] ! at the CD-ROM root
$ @sys$login:tuxinst.com
Follow these steps if the machine on which you want to install OpenVMS does not have a CD-ROM drive. This procedure assumes that you have another machine that does have a CD-ROM drive, that an FTP utility is available, and that a TCP/IP network link exists between the two machines.

You can test your installation by running the simpapp application. The assumption is that you have the server side of BEA TUXEDO installed on another machine and that the simpapp application is booted. Follow these steps to run simpapp.
simpapp returns the same string converted to upper case.

Mounting a CD requires the type "CDFS." Because CDFS is a configurable kernel option, the following line must exist in the system configuration file:
If the system configuration file does not contain this line, modify the file and then rebuild the kernel.
To mount a CD, enter the following commands:
where unit # is the unit number of your CD-ROM drive.
In almost all cases, the unit number of the CD-ROM drive on a new system is 4 (i.e., /dev/rz4c). However, to ensure that you have the correct unit number of the drive, do this:
The output will identify the CD-ROM drive as an RRD disk. The unit number of the drive will be in the left-hand column. For example,
You will probably need to reconfigure the kernel before running BEA TUXEDO because the default values of some kernel parameters are too low. For instructions about reconfiguring, rebuilding, and rebooting, see the following documentation from
Digital: the doconfig(8) man page and the System Tuning and Performance Management manual. The following parameters may need to be increased.
To determine the current value of a tunable parameter, examine the kernel configuration file located in the /sys/conf directory. This file typically has the same name as the system (node) name.
To change the value of a tunable parameter, follow the instructions on the dmconfig man page.
To specify the value of a parameter that was previously unspecified, add a line such as
(where semmni is the name of the parameter and 256, its value) to the kernel configuration file.

To mount a CD, examine the file /etc/vfstab to determine whether there is a standard place in which to mount a CD. If so, type the mount command and specify the directory named in the /etc/vfstab entry. For example,
mounts a CD if /etc/vfstab contains an entry that specifies /cdrom as the mount point for CDs.
If there is no CD-ROM entry, execute
where cd_device is the name of the CD-ROM device file, typically /dev/cd0.
None of the sample applications provided with BEA TUXEDO run on a DS/90 platform on which Fujitsu COBOL 85 compiler is used. You can tailor the CSIMPAPP application to run, however, by making the following changes:

You will probably need to reconfigure the kernel before running BEA TUXEDO because the default values of some IPC parameters are too low. For instructions on reconfiguring, rebuilding and rebooting, see the UnixWare System Performance
After acquiring superuser privileges, determine the current value of the tunable parameter to be changed. The output lists current, default, minimum, and maximum valid values.
Change the parameter's value:
If idtune fails because new-value exceeds the maximum allowed value, you must increase the maximum. (The maximum values of some parameters are set unnecessarily low in some releases of UnixWare). To do this, edit /etc/conf/mtune.d/type, where type is shm, sem, or msg. Change the maximum value (in the last column) to the desired maximum. Then rebuild the operating system and reboot:
Now execute idtune again and supply the desired new-value. Run idbuild to build a new kernel and then reboot.
