This section of the documentation describes the procedures for setting up and using Adabas Review after the installation has been completed:
Initializing Adabas Review for the first time;
Accessing Adabas Review;
Verifying the Adabas Review installation.
This document covers the following topics:
If this is the first time you have installed Adabas Review 4.3, or you have loaded a new Adabas Review repository file, you must initialize
the user profile subsystem, which allows you to give users access to Adabas Review; and
the Adabas Review data file, which designates a DBID for the Adabas Review repository, and installs the Review-supplied reports.
To initialize the Review user profile subsystem
Access Natural as you normally do.
At the NEXT prompt, log on to the library SYSREVDB.
Note:
Wherever the NEXT prompt is specified, the command can also be
issued from the Natural main menu command line.
At the NEXT prompt, type INSTALL UP and press ENTER.
This initializes the Review user profile subsystem and adds one default user record to the system. You must have this initial user defined in order to enter Review.
The following message appears when the user profile subsystem has been successfully installed:
Default user profile installed
Note:
The Adabas Review default user profile is delivered with the HUB
/ DBID set to zero. When running Adabas Review in local mode, this setting
causes the initial HUB / DBID to be set to the same value as the LFILE.
However, when starting Adabas Review in hub mode, you need to modify the
default user profile and reset the zero to the ADARUN REVIEW=hubid
value. You can also manually override the default user profile
HUB / DBID value by issuing HUB=hubid from the
command line after you log on to Adabas Review.
At the NEXT prompt, type MENU and press ENTER to display the main menu:
