2.2.1 Installing HiRDB

Executor: Superuser

Use Hitachi Program Product Installer to install HiRDB on each server machine.

Upgrading HiRDB
Before installing HiRDB, check for any active HiRDB under the installation directory (using the ps OS command, etc.). If there is an active HiRDB, normally terminate the HiRDB with the pdstop command, use the pdsetup -d command to remove HiRDB from the operating system, then install HiRDB.
HiRDB/Parallel Server
Install the same version of HiRDB on all server machines that constitute the HiRDB/Parallel Server.
Multi-HiRDB
When you install multiple HiRDB/Single Servers or multiple HiRDB/Parallel Servers, they all have the same installation directory. If you install multiple HiRDBs one after another, only the last HiRDB installed is effective because they all share the same installation directory.
Therefore, once you have installed the first HiRDB, create its HiRDB directory and register the HiRDB in the operating system (by following the procedures described in 2.3.1 Creating the HiRDB directory and 2.3.2 Registering HiRDB and option program products in the operating system). You can then install the next HiRDB.
