- 2.3 _I_n_s_t_a_l_l_a_t_i_o_n__M_e_t_h_o_d
-
- All of the subsystems for IRIS InSight can be installed
- using IRIX. You do not need to use the miniroot. Refer to
- the _I_R_I_S _S_o_f_t_w_a_r_e _I_n_s_t_a_l_l_a_t_i_o_n _G_u_i_d_e for complete
- installation instructions.
-
-
- 2.4 _P_r_e_r_e_q_u_i_s_i_t_e_s
-
- Your workstation must be running IRIX 6.2 or greater in
- order to use this release of IRIS InSight.
-
- Most products in the IRIS InSight family require that the
- insight_base product be installed. In particular, the
- _i_n_s_i_g_h_t__b_a_s_e._s_w._e_o_e subsystem.
-
- If you install the IRIS InSight viewer (_i_n_s_i_g_h_t._s_w._c_l_i_e_n_t)
- then you must also install _x__e_o_e._s_w._e_o_e, _m_o_t_i_f__e_o_e._s_w._e_o_e,
- _d_m_e_d_i_a__e_o_e._s_w._l_i_b, _c_o_m_p_i_l_e_r__e_o_e._s_w._l_i_b, _c++__e_o_e._s_w._l_i_b, and
- _V_i_e_w_K_i_t__e_o_e._s_w._b_a_s_e for the viewer to function properly.
-
- If you want to view any of the inline Inventor media objects
- then you must install _i_n_v_e_n_t_o_r__e_o_e._s_w._i_n_v_e_n_t_o_r. If you want
- to view any of the inline movie objects then you must
- install _e_o_e._s_w._g_f_x.
-
- Many of the aforementioned prerequisites also apply to
- installing the SGIHelp viewer, _i_n_s_i_g_h_t._s_w._s_g_i_h_e_l_p. In
- addition, the SGIHelp viewer requires that _w_e_b_v_i_e_w_e_r._s_w._e_o_e
- be installed.

-
-
- If you want to install the online help book
- (_i_n_s_i_g_h_t._b_o_o_k_s._h_e_l_p) for the IRIS InSight viewer then you
- must install the SGIHelp viewer _i_n_s_i_g_h_t._s_w._s_g_i_h_e_l_p along
- with the help.
-
- If you wish to install the SGIHelp XHelp tools then you will
- need to install _i_n_s_t__d_e_v._s_w._b_a_s_e, and _d_e_v._s_w._m_a_k_e (which are
- part of the base Developer bundle), in order to build
- instable images. If you simply want to build the samples
- without building images then you do not need these
- subsystems.
-
-
- 2.5 _C_o_m_p_a_t_i_b_i_l_i_t_y
-
- It is possible to mount and access books from a machine
- running a different version of IRIX. In general, to avoid
- any incompatibilities, the client machine should have
- version 3.x (or greater) of the InSight Viewer (and version
- 3.x, or greater, of SGIHelp) installed. In this scenario,
- the help for certain applications may not work properly due
- to changes in both the applications themselves and in the
- documentation (between the different versions of IRIX).
-
- Japanese books cannot be viewed using a version 2.x InSight
- Viewer and _m_u_s_t be viewed using a version 3.x (or greater)
- viewer.
-
- The new InSight Viewer and SGIHelp can view all books
- distributed as part of IRIX 6.2, 6.3, 6.4 or 6.5. The
- opposite may not be true (in general, the 2.x versions of
- InSight cannot read books published for IRIX 6.3, 6.4 and
- 6.5).
-
-
- 2.6 _O_t_h_e_r__I_n_s_t_a_l_l_a_t_i_o_n__I_n_f_o_r_m_a_t_i_o_n
-
- Important: Please read this section carefully. It details
- installation information specific to the IRIS
- InSight product.
-
- You can install IRIS InSight in various configurations:
-
- +o Client and Local Books
-
- +o Client with Remote (mounted) Books
-
- +o Client Accessing Books from a CD-ROM
-
- +o Creating an InSight Library Server for Clients to

-
- 2.6.1 _C_l_i_e_n_t__a_n_d__L_o_c_a_l__B_o_o_k_s
-
- The default installation configuration is to install the
- IRIS InSight Viewer and Library on a single system. The
- total size of the viewer (and help book for the viewer) is
- approximately 11 megabytes. Installing additional books
- requires additional disk space. If you have the disk space,
- this is the ideal configuration since it gives the viewer
- fastest access to the book data.
-
- See the Release Notes for products that contain books to
- find out the disk space requirements for each book.
-
-
- 2.6.2 _L_o_c_a_l__C_l_i_e_n_t__w_i_t_h__R_e_m_o_t_e__(_m_o_u_n_t_e_d_)__B_o_o_k_s
-
- If several machines plan on sharing all the books and help
- files via NFS mounts then this is the configuration of
- choice.
-
- Note: If you have the IRIS InSight Library (books)
- installed on your disk but wish to mount the books
- from a remote machine, you should remove all the
- current IRIS InSight books (with the IRIX command
- _v_e_r_s_i_o_n_s _r_e_m_o_v_e) from your system and remove any
- remaining files in /_u_s_r/_s_h_a_r_e/_I_n_s_i_g_h_t/_l_i_b_r_a_r_y before
- performing the mount command described below.
-
- To install the IRIS InSight Viewer and Library on a remote
- server and access the information from a local client
- system, follow these steps:
-
- 1. On the server:
-
- a. Install the complete IRIS InSight product image
- and all books. See "Creating an InSight Library
- Server for Clients to Access" in this section
- for further details.
-

-
- b. Export the /_u_s_r/_s_h_a_r_e directory using the System
- Manager.
-
- 2. On the client:
-
- a. Install the _i_n_s_i_g_h_t._s_w._c_l_i_e_n_t subsystem (you
- might want to install the _i_n_s_i_g_h_t._m_a_n._r_e_l_n_o_t_e_s
- subsystem as well).

-
- Note: If you have the IRIS InSight Library (books)
- installed on your disk but wish to mount the books
- from the CD-ROM, you should remove all the current
- IRIS InSight books (with the IRIX command _v_e_r_s_i_o_n_s
- _r_e_m_o_v_e) from your system and remove any remaining
- files in /_u_s_r/_s_h_a_r_e/_I_n_s_i_g_h_t/_l_i_b_r_a_r_y before creating
- the symbolic link described in step 2.
-
- If you wish to use the IRIS InSight Viewer and Library from
- the CD-ROM and access the information from a local system,
- follow these steps:
-
- 1. On the system with the CD-ROM drive, insert the CD
- that contains an IRIS InSight Library (books) into the
- CD-ROM drive.
-
- If the drive is not mounted, use the System Manager to
- mount the drive. The most common mount point is
- /_C_D_R_O_M.
-
- If the drive is mounted correctly, you should be able
- to change directories to /_C_D_R_O_M and see the directory
- containing the IRIS InSight Library (books) on the CD
- (for example, a directory called "insight"):
-
- ccccdddd ////CCCCDDDDRRRROOOOMMMM

-
- 2. As root, create a symbolic link from
- /_u_s_r/_s_h_a_r_e/_I_n_s_i_g_h_t/_l_i_b_r_a_r_y/_S_G_I__b_o_o_k_s_h_e_l_v_e_s to the CD
- mount point for the _i_n_s_i_g_h_t directory. You may need
- to create the directory /_u_s_r/_s_h_a_r_e/_I_n_s_i_g_h_t/_l_i_b_r_a_r_y if
- it doesn't exist.

- If you are sharing this CD-ROM mount point with other
- users on your network, export the root (``/'')
- directory and the /_C_D_R_O_M directory using the System
- Manager.
-
- 4. On each client:
-
- a. Install the _i_n_s_i_g_h_t._s_w._c_l_i_e_n_t and
- _i_n_s_i_g_h_t._s_w._d_a_t_a subsystems (you might want to

-
- For sites with numerous SGI machines running multiple
- versions of the IRIX operating system, it may be
- advantageous to devote one machine to being an InSight
- Library Server. This server would contain all the books for
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
- - 8 -
-
-
-
- the various IRIX releases, and the clients would simply NFS
- mount the appropriate books and help from that server.
-
- To create an InSight Library server, start by installing the
- version of InSight and all the books for the oldest OS
- version that any client machine will want to mount. For
- instance, if the server will contain the IRIX 6.5 and 6.4
- books, then install the IRIX 6.4 version of InSight and the
- 6.4 books initially.
-
- After the books are installed for a particular version of
- IRIX, move the "library" directory to
- "<IRIX_Version>library" so that the next installation
- doesn't overwrite the books. If you are installing only one
- version of books (for one version of IRIX), this step is not
- necessary.
-
- The "library" directory is found under /_u_s_r/_s_h_a_r_e/_I_n_s_i_g_h_t/.
- You will also need to move the Help-specific files installed
- in /usr/share/help. For example:
-
- ssssuuuu
- ccccdddd ////uuuussssrrrr////sssshhhhaaaarrrreeee////IIIInnnnssssiiiigggghhhhtttt
- mmmmvvvv lllliiiibbbbrrrraaaarrrryyyy 6666....4444lllliiiibbbbrrrraaaarrrryyyy
- ccccdddd ////uuuussssrrrr////sssshhhhaaaarrrreeee
- mmmmvvvv hhhheeeellllpppp 6666....4444hhhheeeellllpppp
-
- Continue to follow this process for any number of versions
- of the books (any number of IRIX versions), you wish to
- install on the server. If you ever need to install more
- books on a specific OS ("operating system"; the version of
- IRIX) bookshelf then create a symbolic link from the proper
- "library" directory to the OS-specific library directory.
- For help books you will also need to create a link for the
- "help" directory as well!
-
- Here is what a potential Library Server would look like
- after installing the 6.5 and 6.4 books:

-
- After the server is set up, all the various OS-specific
- clients need to install the proper InSight client (viewer)
- software on their system and NFS mount the OS-specific
- library and help directory.
-
- Follow the instructions in these release notes for how to
- install for a "Client with a Remote (mounted) Books", except
- mount the OS-specific version of the libraries rather than
- the "library" directory.
-
- The following illustrates the specific mount commands a
- client would use given the sample Library Server specified
- above.
-
- For an IRIX 6.5 client:
-
- ssssuuuu

-
- If one mount point is desired (for example, /_u_s_r/_s_h_a_r_e) then
- InSight can be run in such as way as to force it to look at
- a particular library using the -l <library> command-line
- option:

-
- It is possible to access books from multiple locations in
- IRIS InSight. This is useful, for example, if you want to
- access the books available on the IRIX 6.5 CD-ROM along with
- the books installed locally on your system disk. Due to the
- complexity of this configuration, this kind of setup should
- only be attempted by InSight administrators that understand
- the intricacies of InSight book administration. We
- recommend that you instead set up an InSight Library Server
-

- as mentioned in the previous section.
-
- To do so involves making the appropriate mounts and links in
- the /_u_s_r/_s_h_a_r_e/_I_n_s_i_g_h_t/_l_i_b_r_a_r_y directory so that InSight
- will find the books. IRIS InSight assumes that every
- subdirectory of /_u_s_r/_s_h_a_r_e/_I_n_s_i_g_h_t/_l_i_b_r_a_r_y/_S_G_I__b_o_o_k_s_h_e_l_v_e_s
- is a directory of bookshelves. For example, you may find a
- directory called "SGI_EndUser" containing the end user
- books.
-
- Note: If you have any of the European language books
- installed then "SGI_bookshelves" will be
- "de_bookshelves" for the German version of the books
- and "fr_bookshelves" for the French versions of the
- books.
-
- Each bookshelf directory contains a set of books, via
- subdirectories and files. It is important to note that each
- bookshelf is an integral unit and you cannot access
- individual books on it via links. However, you can
- configure the books available on a bookshelf by selecting or
- deselecting the appropriate books through _i_n_s_t.
-
- To add a new bookshelf to IRIS InSight, it is sufficient to
- make a link or mount a bookshelf directory in
- /_u_s_r/_s_h_a_r_e/_I_n_s_i_g_h_t/_l_i_b_r_a_r_y/_S_G_I__b_o_o_k_s_h_e_l_v_e_s.
-
- For example, if you don't have the SGI_Admin bookshelf
- installed on your hard disk and you want to access it
- directly from the IRIX 6.5 CD-ROM, do the following:
-
- ssssuuuu
- llllnnnn ----ssss ////CCCCDDDDRRRROOOOMMMM////iiiinnnnssssiiiigggghhhhtttt////SSSSGGGGIIII____bbbbooooooookkkksssshhhheeeellllvvvveeeessss////SSSSGGGGIIII____AAAAddddmmmmiiiinnnn \\\\

-
- Note: These instructions assume the CD-ROM is mounted as
- /_C_D_R_O_M.
-
- The next time IRIS InSight is started it will now read the
- SGI_Admin bookshelf from the CD-ROM along with any books
- that were already on your hard disk.
-
- In this manner, any number of bookshelves may be added or
- removed from IRIS InSight.

-
- After the software has been installed, you might want to
- force your shell to re-cache its list of known executables:
-
- rrrreeeehhhhaaaasssshhhh
-
- You can then execute the IRIS InSight Viewer. It is known
- as _i_n_s_i_g_h_t, or _i_i_v for short. _i_i_v stands for IRIS InSight
- Viewer. The Viewer process places itself in the background
- by default.

-
- The installation of books causes several commands to be
- executed during the exitop phase to create a library level
- index for each bookshelf. If you remove books using the
- _v_e_r_s_i_o_n_s _r_e_m_o_v_e command, the books are removed and the
- library level index is updated _a_u_t_o_m_a_t_i_c_a_l_l_y by a "removeop"
- command.
-
- If for any reason you believe the library level index is out
- of date with the books installed on your system (in
- particular, this could happen if a book or books have been
- removed by a means other than using the _v_e_r_s_i_o_n_s _r_e_m_o_v_e
- command), you can invoke the _i_n_s_i_g_h_t_A_d_m_i_n tool on a specific
- bookshelf (or all bookshelves) to correct the situation.
- See the man page for _i_n_s_i_g_h_t_A_d_m_i_n for more details.
