MOMI software is distributed in a MSI file created by InstallShield. This file is the place to start for a MOMI install or upgrade. It provides capabilities to install to the PC (all users or current user), copy MOMI software to the NonStop System, and/or copy MOMI software to a shared network location. All supported NonStop platforms (NonStop X (physical and virtual), Nonstop i, NonStop Blade, and S-Series Systems) are included.
There are several ways MOMI software may be installed:
install to the local PC for all users (requires PC Administrator access)
install to the local PC for the current user
copy MOMI software to a shared network location where users may access the software via short-cuts
copy the Server portion of MOMI software to the NonStop System via FTP/SFTP using MomiFTP or manually
Particularity for a first install, there are additional considerations:
On the NonStop System, the default process name for the main MOMI process is $MOMI (all other processes started by the main MOMI process are randomly selected by the NonStop system). This default may be changed in the OBYMOMI file.
On the NonStop System, the main MOMI process listens for incoming connections from MOMI PC Client(s). In the CONFMOMI file the keyword TCPIP-LISTEN defines the $TCP/IP process name, IP address of the NonStop System, and a port (default 2010 but user selectable) to receive the incoming connections. The CONFMOMI file contains a sample entry to modify as needed.
In most corporate network environments, in-between users PC and the NonStop System is a firewall. This situation requires the network administrator to authorize or allow communication and typically the information asked:
IP address of the NonStop Server (what the client connects to)
type of communication : TCP
port used : 2010 (this is the default and is defined in the CONFMOMI file)
direction communication is established : from the PC to the NonStop System
is the PC in the corporate office and/or connecting via a VPN
Corporate PC administration may also need to authorize the MOMI PC based applications. All MOMI PC based executables are digitally signed.
