FTP upload of binary file to MPE

Once you have downloaded the binary file to your PC, you need to upload it to the HP e3000. Start a MS-DOS command window, switch to the directory where you downloaded the binary file, then start FTP:

C:\> cd \download
C:\DOWNLOAD> ftp myhost.example.com
Connected to myhost.example.com.
220 HP ARPA FTP Server [A0011001] (C) Hewlett-Packard Co. 1990

Installing the Software

Now that you have the STORE file on your HP e3000, you need to install it:

Restore the files.
Execute the installation script.

Restore the files

Logon (or stay logged on) as manager.sys,pub to do the restore.

:hello manager.sys,pub
:file t=stprod;dev=disc
:restore *t;@.@.@;create;show=short
:purge stprod
:stream robelle.job.robelle

Wait for the job to send you a completion message:

========= Robelle.Pub.Sys  =================
=           Robelle account structure ready.
============================================

Execute the Installation Script

Wait to be contacted by Robelle with the authorization codes. Once you get the codes you can finish the installation script. ^* Note that nobody can be accessing Suprtool while the batch job runs. If you like, you can edit the webinst.suprjob command file to launch the job at a time when nobody will be accessing Suprtool. E.g.,
stream webjob.suprjob;at=02:00

:hello mgr.robelle,pub
:webinst.suprjob
Please enter the Product Verification Code : n
Please enter the Verification Code         : n
Please enter the Second Verification Code  : n

After a few moments, a batch job will be launched. Wait for the job to send you a completion message:

Install has installed a new version of SUPRTOOL!

You can now run this release from the Pub group:

:run suprtool.pub.robelle
