The superuser executes the pdsetup command to register HiRDB into the OS. The pdsetup command copies the directories and files from the installation directory to the HiRDB directory. For a HiRDB/Parallel Server, execute the pdsetup command for each server machine.
To perform registration into the OS:
For details about the pdsetup command, see the manual HiRDB Version 8 Command Reference.
To install an option program product, you use the pdopsetup command to register the option program product with the OS. In the case of a HiRDB/Parallel Server, you must execute the pdopsetup command for each server machine. However, in the case of HiRDB LDAP Option or HiRDB Disaster Recovery Light Edition, execute as follows:
Use the -c option of the pdsetup command to specify the character encoding to be used in with HiRDB. Table 2-4 lists the character encoding that can be used with HiRDB.
Table 2-4 Character encoding supported by HiRDB
Character encoding | OS | |||
---|---|---|---|---|
HP-UX | Solaris | AIX 5L | Linux | |
Shift JIS Kanji encoding | D | ![]() | D | ![]() |
EUC Chinese Kanji encoding | ![]() | ![]() | ![]() | ![]() |
Single-byte character encoding | ![]() | ![]() | ![]() | ![]() |
EUC Japanese Kanji encoding | ![]() | D | ![]() | D |
Unicode (UTF-8)1 | ![]() | ![]() | ![]() | ![]() |
On the client side, specify the character encoding with the LANG or PDCLTLANG operand in the client environment definition as appropriate to the server's character encoding. The client environment definition is referenced during UAP creation or execution. For the client environment variables supported based on the server's available character encoding, see the manual HiRDB Version 8 UAP Development Guide.
To use JP1/OmniBack II, specify the -p option in the pdsetup command. For operation using JP1/OmniBack II, see the manual HiRDB Version 8 System Operation Guide.
Note that JP1/OmniBack II is not supported by a 64-bit-mode HiRDB.
If you are using the POSIX library version, specify the -l option in the pdsetup command. You need the POSIX library version to use the following facilities:
