Installation Steps:

The installation requires you to have access to both Guardian and OSS side on your NonStop. Files need to be installed on both the sides.

Guardian Side:

(Note: These files need to be transferred to the WVP $volume.subvolume to which you want to integrate this plugin)

The following files have to be transferred in ‘BINARY’ Mode

  • SETPATH
  • PATHPAK
  1. Run the setup file ‘SETPATH’ (read the following instructions first)
  • It prompts user to specify the parameters you want to use for Web ViewPoint Pathway

  1. Refresh Process Name: This is the process name of the Refresh Program (WVPPREF). This process starts alongside Web ViewPoint Pathway and will be a part of STARTWVP/STARTPLS. It runs in the background to Relearn the Pathway environments once a day by default.

By default, $REF is set as the Refresh process name, to change the default parameter follow the below step:

  • Input number 1 and enter, input desired Refresh Process name and enter.
  1. Install: Input number 2 and enter to install Pathway Plugin as shown below

OSS Side:

  1. Goto your Web ViewPoint/Web ViewPoint Plus installation subvolume

    (example: PARAM WEBLOCATION /usr/tandem/wvp)
  3. Now switch to the OSS side and goto the OSS location specified in UGATCONF
    Example: cd /usr/tandem/wvp
  4. Transfer the tar file (which was sent as a part of install package) to the wvp folder\
  5. Extract the contents of the tar file by running the below command:
    tar -o -xvf wpwy.tar (For Web ViewPoint)
    tar -o -xvf wppwy.tar (For Web ViewPoint Plus)
  6. Go to the Guradian side and start Web ViewPoint and Web ViewPoint Plus.
  7. To access Web ViewPoint Pathway, open our browser, enter the IP address and Port on which Web ViewPoint is running (the plug-in functions can be accessed under the ‘Admin’ menu item) Example: http://121.231.102.221:8787/index.html
