Pre-Configuration Software Check 

Once you have verified that your hardware has been correctly installed,
verify that the appropriate software is installed by performing the
following steps:

   1.  Ensure that the Datacommunications and Terminal Subsystem (DTS)
       has been configured.  If DTS has not been configured, refer to
       Configuring Systems for Terminals, Printers, and Other Serial 
       Devices and configure the DTS before proceeding.

   2.  Check that the data communications software has been installed
       properly by running the NMMAINT program (NMMAINT.PUB.SYS), which
       is supplied as part of the node management services.  NMMAINT will
       tell you if any software modules are missing or invalid.  See the
       Using the Node Management Services (NMS) Utilities manual for a
       discussion of the NMMAINT program.

   3.  Whenever you receive a new version of the node management services
       (NMS) software (which includes NMMGR), and you have earlier
       versions of NMS, you first have to run a conversion program.  The
       conversion program, called NMMGRVER (NMMGRVER.PUB.SYS), ensures
       that configuration files created with an earlier version of NMMGR
       are converted to the latest format.
