To install a HiRDB parallel server, use the following simple installation procedure:
- Setting a HiRDB environment
Setting up an environment on the OS prior to HiRDB system construction is explained in 23.2 Setting a HiRDB environment.
- Using the system generator to construct a HiRDB system
The procedure for using the system generator to construct a HiRDB system interactively is explained in 23.3 Using the system generator to construct a HiRDB system.
- Extending database facilities by registering a plug-in into HiRDB
The procedure for setting up and registering the HiRDB Text Search Plug-in that enables high-speed retrievals from SGML documents is explained in 23.4 Registering a plug-in into HiRDB (to extend database facilities). After performing step 2 previously, the system generator can be used to register this plug-in into HiRDB.
- Defining a table and index
Definition of a table for storing the SGML document data and creation of the sample database, as well as definition of an index that is necessary for data retrieval, are explained in 23.5 Defining a table and index.
- Storing SGML documents in the table
Storing the SGML statements in the table defined in step 4 and creation of the manual database are explained in 23.6 Storing SGML documents in the table.
- Making retrievals from the SGML documents
Using the registered plug-in to execute a simple data retrieval from the SGML documents is explained in 23.7 Making retrievals from the SGML document.
