Setting Up the CMS Application

Overview

Prerequisites

Use the procedures in this section to set up the CMS application.

•Verify that you are logged in as root.

•CMS must be turned off.

•All file systems must be mounted.

Setup Methods

You can set up the CMS feature package using one of two methods:

a.Interactively from a terminal — Using the interactive option, the program prompts you for the necessary information to set up the CMS application (for example, system type, number of agents, trunks, vectors, VDNs, and so on).

To set up the CMS application using this option, see “Setting Up CMS Interactively from a Terminal” in this chapter.

b.UNIX* System flat file — Using the flat file option, you edit a UNIX System flat file containing the necessary information (for example, system type, number of agents, trunks, vectors, VDNs, and so on) to set up the CMS application. When you execute the program, it runs in the background and uses the UNIX System flat file data to set up the CMS application. To set up the CMS application using this option, see “Setting Up CMS Using a UNIX Flat File” in this chapter.
