These are instructions for copying a GT.M SemiVivA installation from one platform to another. For this discussion, the platforms are assumed to be of different endian-ness, e.g., x86 GNU/Linux and Sun SPARC Solaris).

Notes

  1. Existing SemiVivA scripts use the bash shell, and assume that it is located at /bin/bash. Modify the location if bash is located elsewhere. Edit the scripts as needed to use other shells.
  2. xinetd is assumed to control th
  3. It is assumed that the GT.M versions use the same database format.
  4. The VistA environments to be copied must be identified, along with the hierarchical structure, e.g.
    • /usr/local/FOIAVistA20061230
      • /var/FOIAVistAprod
    • /usr/local/WorldVistAEHRvTEST20070616
      • /home/vista/myWorldVistAEHR
        • /home/bhaskar/WorldVistAEHRdev

Steps

  1. Obtain and install GT.M for the new platform in a sub-directory of /usr/local, e.g., in /usr/local/gtm_V5.2-001.
