Results

The following modifications are done on your system during installation:
  • The ProLE service is installed and started.
  • An entry is created in %windir%\system32\drivers\etc\services (tdpr3db264).
  • (Optional) The DSMI_DIR, DSMI_CONFIG, and DSMI_LOG environment variables are modified.
  • The XINT_PROFILE environment variable specifies the Tivoli Storage Manager for ERP profile in the path that is specified during installation. The file name is initSID.utl where SID is the DB2 database SID specified during installation.
  • The TDP_DIR environment variable specifies the directory where Tivoli Storage Manager for ERP saves the configuration file and creates its process logs. Initially, this path is set to profile path\tdplog where profile path is the path for Tivoli Storage Manager for ERP profile that is specified during installation.
  • The environment variable XINT_NLS_CATALOG_PATH points to the installation path of Tivoli Storage Manager for ERP. The message catalog is located under DP for SAP install path\lang where DP for SAP install path is the installation path that is specified by the user during the installation.
  • If the DB2 instance is running, the installation program sets the DB2 database configuration parameter VENDOROPT to the Tivoli Storage Manager for ERP vendor environment file. If VENDOROPT is already set (for example, because of the installation of a previous version), the program uses its value and does not set VENDOROPT. If DB2 log archiving is not to be managed by Tivoli Storage Manager for ERP, the corresponding database configuration settings are not modified. If DB2 log archiving is to be managed by Tivoli Storage Manager for ERP, the corresponding DB2 database configuration values are set based on the method that is selected during installation:
    LOGARCHMETHn  VENDOR:path\tdpdb2.dll
    LOGARCHOPTn   drive:\path\vendor.env
    If the DB2 instance is not running, these tasks must be run manually as described in the Specifying the VENDOROPT parameter and Configuring the DB2 Log Manager topics.
