This chapter details Rose for UNIX/Linux configuration, performed after installation. You must complete these steps before using Rose.
The following topics are covered in this section:
Executing rational_dir/releases/rose.I.J.K/bin/rose will run the Rose configuration file config.sh prior to bringing up Rose. The configuration file sets environment information such as the ROSE home directory and location of the license file.
Any settings previously in the Rose.ini file are now in the registry file, rose.reg. This new registry file is located in the rational_dir/releases/rose.I.J.K/registry directory of the release. The settings in this file are entered in your registry, after running "rose_cleanup" and then "rose". Any changes made to the release rose.reg file will apply to all users running rose. If you wish to make changes specific for your environment, a rose.reg.template file is available in rational_dir/releases/rose.I.J.K/registry. Copy this file to your $HOME directory and name it $USER.reg. Edit this file with the settings you prefer, run rose_cleanup and then rose. Rose will automatically register your $HOME/$USER.reg file and your settings will be available in your Rose session.
Perform the following steps to configure your printer for use with Rose for UNIX/Linux.
You may also edit the release win.ini file (rational_dir/releases/rose.I.J.K/mw/win.ini). In this case, the same change will apply to any new user who runs the release.
