This document covers the following topics:


Operating Environments

This section covers the following topics:

Supported Operating Systems Platforms

Entire Operations supports the operating systems listed in the current Entire Operations Release Notes.

Natural Security

If Natural Security is installed, access to Entire Operations is protected by the Natural Security facilities. Entire Operations-generated modules operate in, and are controlled by, the Natural Security system.

Memory Space Requirements

There is no specific memory requirement for operating the product.

Disk Space Requirements (UNIX only)

Approximately 50 MB of hard-disk space is required for Entire Operations (without any Natural or Software GmbH Installer packages). This value depends on the installation hardware. On some platforms, it is higher. If you install Natural and/or other required products in one step with Entire Operations, see the installation documentation for these products for further information.

Software Requirements for Using Related Entire Operations Products

For the prerequisites Entire Operations requires to use related Software GmbH products, see the current Entire Operations Release Notes.

License File (Mainframes and UNIX)

During the installation of Entire Operations, the Software AG Installer prompts you to enter the path to a valid product license file. The license file is an XML file which is delivered by e-mail.

Note
The Software AG Installer does not check all information in the license file. All license checks are done, however, when the product itself is started.

For UNIX

The components that can be installed with Entire Operations are based on your license file.

For Mainframes

Entire Operations (NOP) Monitor checks the validity of the Entire Operations license on mainframes. The license check is performed daily (after midnight) and when the Monitor is started.

  • If the license is valid, a success message will be recorded in the Monitor log.

  • If a warning occurs during the license check, the Monitor will not be shut down. Log message EOR2122 will be recorded, and an email message will be sent to the recipients as specified in the Monitor defaults. The warning message will start triggering within 30 days of expiry.

  • If an error occurs during the license check, the monitor will be shut down. Log message EOR2123 will be recorded, and an email message will be sent to the recipients as specified in the Monitor defaults when the monitor is started successfully.
