2 Installing Eloquence on the HP-UX platform
Configuring the User Environment
There are two files where the user environment can be configured:
- The environment defined in /etc/profile affects all users.
- The file .profile located in a user's home directory configures the user-specific environment.
Perform the following steps:
- Make the Eloquence executables accessible:
* If you are using HP-UX 10.x, this step is already done during software installation. The installation script automatically adds /opt/eloquence6/bin to the global path configuration file /etc/PATH.
* If you are using HP-UX 9.x, please edit the file /etc/profile. This file contains the command PATH=, where you should append :/opt/eloquence6/bin.
- If you plan to frequently use the Eloquence migration tools, you might additionally make the /opt/eloquence6/tools directory accessible.
* If you want to make the migration tools accessible for all users and you are using HP-UX 10.x, edit the file /etc/PATH and append :/opt/eloquence6/tools to the global path list.
* If you want to make the migration tools accessible for all users and you are using HP-UX 9.x, edit the file /etc/profile and append :/opt/eloquence6/tools to the PATH= command.
* If you want to make the migration tools accessible only to specific users, edit the files .profile in the appropriate home directories and append :/opt/eloquence6/tools to the PATH= command.
- Make sure that the terminal type is configured properly for all users. Normally, /etc/profile provides a mechanism that automatically detects the terminal type and sets the TERM= environment variable appropriately.
- Make your configuration changes active. This is done by logging off and back on again.
