If the installation procedure fails, a message similar to the following is displayed:
%VMSINSTAL-E-INSFAIL, The installation of Kednos PL/I V4.n has failed. |
An error during the installation can occur if one or more of the following conditions exist:
For descriptions of the error messages generated by these conditions, see the OpenVMS system messages documentation or your processor-specific installation/operations guide.
If you are notified that any of these conditions exist, follow the instructions in the message. You may need to change a system parameter or increase an authorized quota value.
If the installation fails, you must restart the installation procedure
from step 2. If the installation fails due to an IVP failure, contact
Kednos Corporation.
2.2.2 Installing Kednos PL/I for OpenVMS Alpha as a Shared Image
If you plan to use Kednos PL/I for OpenVMS Alpha extensively, you can reduce system overhead and memory requirements by installing Kednos PL/I for OpenVMS Alpha as a shared image. To perform the installation on a system that is currently running, log into a privileged account and use the OpenVMS Install Utility.
First, determine the number of available global pages and global sections on your system. See Section 1.4 for information on how to do this.
If you have enough available global pages and global sections, install Kednos PL/I for OpenVMS Alpha as a shared image using the supplied startup procedure:
SYS$MANAGER:DPLI$STARTUP.COM |
This procedure installs the compiler and run-time library as shared images.
Update the system startup file to install Kednos PL/I for OpenVMS Alpha.
To ensure that Kednos PL/I for OpenVMS Alpha is installed as a shared image each time
the system is bootstrapped, include the following line in
SYS$MANAGER:SYSTARTUP_V5.COM (the site-specific startup file):
$ @SYS$MANAGER:DPLI$STARTUP |
PL/I is now installed and can be invoked by all users with the DCL command, PLI.
The installation procedure modifies the DCL command table so that the PLI command is recognized and processed. However, the previous command table is still in effect for those users who are currently logged in. All logged-in users who want to use the PLI command for the newly installed product must log out of the system and log in again.
If PL/I is used extensively on your system, you can reduce
system overhead requirements by installing it as a shareable image
using the OpenVMS Install Utility. For more information, read
Section 2.1.2 or Section 2.2.2.
3.1 Running the Installation Verification Procedure Separately
The Installation Verification Procedure (IVP) is usually run at installation. You can also run it separately at any time to ensure the integrity of installed files if you have problems with your system. The following command procedures execute the IVP:
$ @SYS$SYSROOT:[SYSTEST]PLI$IVP.COM [Return] |
$ @SYS$SYSROOT:[SYSTEST]DPLI$IVP.COM [Return] |
If the IVP fails, one of the following messages is displayed, depending upon which OpenVMS system you are using:
*** VAX PL/I Installation Verification Procedure *** **** Beginning at dd-mmm-yyyy hh:mm:ss.ss **** IVP test ASSIGN... ******** VAX PL/I Installation Verification FAILED ******** *** VAX PL/I Installation Verification Procedure *** ***** Ending at dd-mmm-yyyy hh:mm:ss.ss **** |

All rights reserved. IVP test ASSIGN... ******** Kednos PL/I Installation Verification FAILED ******** *** Kednos PL/I Installation Verification Procedure *** ***** Ending at dd-mmm-yyyy hh:mm:ss.ss **** |
If you want to run PL/I on multiple nodes of a VMScluster, first check to see that you have the appropriate software license. Then, follow these steps after installing PL/I:
INSTALL> REPLACE SYS$LIBRARY:DCLTABLES.EXE [Return] |
As a faster alternative, you can use the SYSMAN utility to replace the DCL tables on all cluster nodes. To do this, perform the following steps.
SYSMAN> SET ENVIRONMENT/CLUSTER [Return] SYSMAN> DO INSTALL REPLACE SYS$LIBRARY::DCLTABLES.EXE [Return] |
Kednos Corporation may periodically issue maintenance updates of PL/I. Each update consists of an installation kit. You should install this kit as described herein or in any documentation that may accompany the maintenance update.
Each time a maintenance update is released, the version number changes. For example, if the current version is 3.0, the version number of the first maintenance update will be 3.1. In addition, the maintenance update includes new release notes. The release notes describe the changes that have been made to PL/I since the previous release.
The update release notes are online. To locate the release notes after installing PL/I, type or print one of the following files:
SYS$HELP:PLI$038.RELEASE_NOTES
SYS$HELP:DPLI044.RELEASE_NOTES
or, enter the following command:
$ HELP PLI RELEASE_NOTES [Return] |
If an error occurs while using PL/I and you believe that the error is caused by a problem with PL/I, take one of the following actions:
If you find an error in the PL/I documentation, complete and submit a Reader's Comments form from the back of the manual containing the error. Include the section and page number on which the error occurred.
This appendix contains sample installations of Kednos PL/I Version 3.8 for OpenVMS VAX and
Kednos PL/I Version 4.4 for OpenVMS Alpha. Note that these are only sample installations. The
installation procedure may be modified in maintenance updates of this
product.

The VAX PL/I system interface library PLI$STARLET.TLB can be installed either in compressed form or in decompressed form. The compressed form of the library requires approximately 1500 blocks less disk space, but requires more CPU time during compilations of programs that include modules from the library. Installing the decompressed form of the library will require more time for this installation to complete, because the library decompression is performed by the installation; also, the decompressed form will require approximately 3000 additional blocks to be available during the installation procedure. * Do you want to decompress PLI$STARLET [YES]? You have answered all of the questions for this installation.
