Obtaining the product files

This section describes how to obtain the UIE/VM product files, either electronically or from an installation tape.

Downloading the files electronically

This section describes how to download the UIE/VM product files from the BMC Electronic Product Distribution (EPD) facility. You can navigate to the EPD page from the Customer Support website at http://www.bmc.com/support .

To download the UIE/VM product files

  1. From the EPD site, download the bmcmvp-v1910-uievm.bin image file.
    If you choose to transfer the files by using FTP from a VM system, use the following commands:
    type i
    locsite f 80
    get bmcmvp-v1910-uievm.bin uievm.vmarc.a

  2. Use the VMARC utility to expand the downloaded files into the UIE/VM product data sets.

    For example, if you downloaded bmcmvp-v1910-uievm.bin into VM file UIEVM VMARC A, and you want to install UIE/VM on your B disk, enter this command:

    VMARC UNPK UIEVM VMARC A * * B

UIE/VM is now ready to use. You can invoke UIE/VM by entering the following command:

UIEVM
Warning

Note

If you need to reinstall, be sure to delete all files off the minidisk and invoke the VMARC command again so that you get all the installation product files.
