30.0. "Testinstallation - how long would it take? 1 or 2 weeks? " by 49920::ENZ (Take my advise - I'm not using it) Thu Mar 29 1990 14:06

Hello,

Philips in Austria is thinking of buying VAX MR-gateway to MEMO and we are 
discussing a test installation. We want the customer to pay for the test 
installation and refund it if he buys. As I never installed/implemented MR-Memo before,
could someone give me a clue on how much time we would need for planning,
evaluation, installation, implementation of the Gateway, based on the assumption
that Message Router is already installed on the VAX.
How much work would it be on the MEMO System?

Thank you for any help

Kind regards

Helene

30.1One day should be enough.EEMELI::MITTSH�kan Mitts, Finland/EIS/ACT/NetFri Mar 30 1990 12:0923
	Hello Helene,

	I've been involved in several MR/MEMO installations on the VAX side.

	The first one I did (with hardly any MR knowledge..), only took about
	2 hours to get going with all parameters etc. This on the VAX side.

	Note that if you use DDS + VAXmail, not everything is in the manual,
	see this notes conf. Otherwise the installation even with DDS is
	very straighforward. Reserving one day to set up, test and demonstrate
	should be more than enough if you know your Message Router well and
	know how to define IBM Gateway access names.
 
	Here in Finland, the IBM side is handled by the company selling MEMO.
	The guys know whet they are doing, the only problem we've ever had
	are :

	logon mode tables not defined or incorrect
	several MEMO gateways somehow competing for the link this causing 
		failures...
