E.1 Introduction

Collectively, these sample files are referred to as Tools for Automated System Management (TASM). The procedures for installing TASM are as follows:

1. Create the following directory on the disk of your choice, for instance:

   $ CREATE/DIR SYS$SYSDEVICE:[TASM] 

2. Download BALDWIN. ZIP from http://books.elsevier.com/companions/1555582435 to the SYS$SYSDEVICE:[TASM] directory using your favorite browser or FTP client.

   Use UNZIP to expand BALDWIN.ZIP. UNZIP can be downloaded from http://vms.process.com/fileserv-software.html.

3. Edit TASM$STARTUP.COM and configure the TASM$DSK logical to reflect the device you ve selected to contain TASM:

   $ EDIT TASM$STARTUP.COM $! TASM$STARTUP.COM $! $ DEFINE TASM$DSK    SYS$SYSDEVICE: .. 

   Save the changes and exit to DCL.

4. Execute TASM$STARTUP with the SETUP parameter. This forces the remaining TASM directories and logical names to be created, as follows:

   $ @TASM$STARTUP SETUP ... %CREATE-I-EXISTS, TASM$COM already exists %CREATE-I-CREATED, TASM$ROOT:[BACKUPS] created %CREATE-I-CREATED, TASM$ROOT:[DOC] created %CREATE-I-CREATED, TASM$ROOT:[SCRATCH] created 

5. After you execute TASM$STARTUP, you can refer to all TASM directories by their respective logical names. For example, TASM$COM refers to the [TASM.COM] directory.

6. Edit your system startup files (e.g., STARTUP_PRODUCTS.COM) so that TASM$STARTUP is executed every time the system boots, as follows:

   $ EDIT SYS$MANAGER:STARTUP_PRODUCTS.COM ... ... $! Start TASM $! $ @device:[TASM.COM]TASM$STARTUP .. 

   Save the changes and exit to DCL.

7. Execute TASM_SYMBOLS to define TASM symbols, as follows:

   $ @TASM$COM:TASM_SYMBOLS Defining TASM symbols. Enter "TASM" for HELP. 

8. Also add the foregoing command to the login command procedures of users who are to access TASM (see chapter 11). After you define the symbols, issue the TASM command to...
