1.3.2 Full Devic e Server Inst allat ion

If you do not plan on using the Remote Fax Server on other nodes, perform each step related to a Full
Device Server only. Place the distribution media in the drive to begin the installation. Use VMSINSTAL to
load the correct files onto your system. If you performed the steps in the Section 1.2.5 section and copied the
saveset to disk, replace tape-drive: with the name of the target-directory you created earlier.

$ @SYS$UPDATE:VMSINSTAL product tape-drive:

Substitute the correct product name in the above command; FAX for a VAX system or FAX_AXP for an
Alpha AXP system.

Answer the VMSINSTAL questions as shown below:

Is this node a FAX Full Device Server node? (Y/ N) [Y]: Yes
Remote Server on same disk? (Y/ N) [N]: No
* Do you want to purge files replaced by this installation [YES]? No
Will you be using a MultiTech fax modem? (Y/ N) [Y]: Yes (N = no fax device)

Note: Even if you are not using a MultiTech modem select 'YES'.

1.4 Customization

Once the CompuFax software has been loaded, you must customize default values for each system that will
be running CompuFax. This step is not performed if you are only evaluating the software, without a modem
device.
