Server Installation Guide Introduction
Chapter 1 Introduction
This guide provides specific field entries that need to be made in the process of 
installing and configuring Server.  In addition to this guide, use the following 
manuals for this installation:
•Applications Manager (APM) Installation Manual  – Contains step-by-step 
instructions for installing the software from the release media.
Applications Manager (APM) Operations Manual – Explains how 
applications like Server are configured in the APM environment, using the 
entries and values provided in this guide.
NEAX2400 System Manuals – Give very detailed explanations about the 
assignments that need to be made through the Maintenance Administration 
Terminal (MAT) commands on the NEAX2400.
Briefly, the installation and set up of Server involves the following processes:
Software Installation – Server software must first be loaded from the release 
media.  Log in to the APM Platform Management Menu, select the Installation 
of Applications/Packages option, and follow the instructions provided in the 
APM Installation Manual to complete this part of the installation.        
Application Configuration – Server is internally supported by the APM and 
must be configured in the APM environment.  This section provides the 
information that must be entered into this APM configuration file.  Use the 
instructions provided in the APM Operations Manual for the entries provided 
in this section.
MAT Assignments – Data settings that must be assigned at the NEAX 
Maintenance Administration Terminal (MAT) depend upon the needs of the 
application that Server is to support.  This section discusses some of the 
relationships between the NEAX facilities that the application may require and 
the MAT commands that frequently correspond to those facility functions.  Use 
the instructions provided in the NEAX2400IMS System Manuals for any 
required MAT command assignments.

Server Installation Guide Application Configuration
Chapter 2 Application Configuration
Server is configured into the APM system using the Add function of the 
Application Configuration option on the APM System Administration menu.
Enter the APM option from the APM Platform Management Menu.
Enter the System Administrator password at the APM password screen.
Enter the Application Configuration option from the System Administration 
menu.
This section contains the information that should be entered to the configuration 
file for Server.  For specific instructions on what these parameters mean and how 
to make these entries, refer to the APM Operations Manual.
The following components must be configured for Server:
The Command Controller, the background process that manages Server 
functionality.
Each Facility Messenger supported by Server.  There must be one per PBX 
served.
The Logical Monitor for each Facility Messenger.  The Logical Monitor 
component is only required if Server commands #60 and #61 are used.
Note:Fully configure one component at a time (steps 1-5), rather than attempting to 
configure all components at each step.
Step 1:  Application Characteristics (All Components)
In this step, each component is characterized.   This characterization determines 
what other parameters must be configured for the component.  Characterize each 
component as follows:
Parame te rFacility 
MessengerCommand
ControllerLogical
MonitorDescription
OAI Application (Y,N) Y N Y Indicates whether or not (Yes or No) 
this component communicates with the 
NEAX2400 using OAI processes.
CRT Application 
(Y,N)N N N Indicates whether or not (Yes or No) 
this component requires a terminal 
screen that is of the same type as the 
one used by the APM.
Communication 
Queue (Y,N)N Y N Indicates whether or not (Yes or No) 
this non-OAI application needs an IPC 
queue to communicate with other 
processes.

Application Configuration Server Installation Guide
Step  2:  Primary Configuration Parameters (All Components)
On the Configuration Entry screen, make the entries shown below to the 
parameters indicated.  
Note:
It is assumed that the Facility Messengers are all configured alike except for their 
names (e.g., Messenger 1, Messenger 2, etc.).
Parameter Definitions:
Application Name – Indicates the name to be displayed in the APM menus.
Executable Filename – Contains the path name of the executable file.
Group
 –
 Indicates the group to which the components are associated.
Response Mode – Indicates the action that APM is to take with the component 
should a member of the group terminate.
Initialization Batch – Indicates whether or not the component is to be initialized 
automatically when the OAI system is initialized.
Termination Mode – Indicates how the APM is to tell the application to 
terminate.
Standard Output – Designates the file into which component output is 
redirected.
Number of Restarts – Indicates the number of times that the APM may restart 
the component after it terminates erroneously.
Queue Key – Indicates the queue key to be assigned to that component.
