                    NETWARE BASIC MHS DOCUMENTATION 
---------------------------------------------------------------- 
 
The NetWare Basic MHS documentation is in the MHS\SYS 
subdirectory, which is created during installation.  The 
documentation consists of the following file: 
 
*   ADMIN.DOC - "NetWare Basic MHS Administration" 
*   MESSAGES.DOC - "NetWare Basic MHS Messages" 
 
 
---------------------------------------------------------------- 
                      INSTALLING NETWARE BASIC MHS 
---------------------------------------------------------------- 
 
Before installing Basic MHS, refer to the "Getting Started with 
NetWare Messaging" manual. Follow the instructions in this 
manual to install the software from a floppy diskette.  To 
install the software from a CD-ROM or network drive, refer to 
the Basic MHS Release Note.  

Before beginning the install, check the PRODUCTS.DAT file in the 
SYSTEM directory, to ensure that it is marked read/write.  
(Previous beta versions of NetWare 3.12 incorrectly marked 
this file read-only.)  

If you are installing Basic MHS from a network drive, enter 
the path to the Basic MHS software in the format 
<vol>:<pathname>. DO NOT include the server name in the path. 
 
 
---------------------------------------------------------------- 
                      UNLOADING NETWARE BASIC MHS 
---------------------------------------------------------------- 
 
If you attempt to unload BASICMHS.NLM while a message is being 
processed, BASICMHS generates the following system message: 
 
    Basic MHS will unload as soon as the current message is 
    delivered  

No action is necessary.  Basic MHS will unload when processing 
is completed. 
 
 
---------------------------------------------------------------- 
         DISMOUNTING THE VOLUME ON WHICH BASIC MHS IS INSTALLED 
---------------------------------------------------------------- 
 
Before dismounting the volume on which Basic MHS is installed, 
you must unload BASICMHS.NLM.  If you do not, Basic MHS will 
not be unloaded properly; to unload it you must restart the 
server.  
 
---------------------------------------------------------------- 
                     INSUFFICIENT DIRECTORY ENTRIES 
---------------------------------------------------------------- 
 
If the file server runs out of directory entries while 
BASICMHS is running, an out-of-space error occurs. If users on 
the network are reporting out-of-space errors, but there is 
sufficient space on the network, you might be running out of 
directory entries. To avoid this problem, you can increase the 
percentage of the volume used for directory entries.  Use the 
following SET command:  

    SET MAXIMUM PERCENT OF VOLUME USED BY DIRECTORY = 
 
The default percentage is 13.  However, you can enter a number 
from 5 to 50. 
 
Enter this command in the AUTOEXEC.NCF.  It will not take 
effect until you restart your server.  For more information 
about the command, refer to your NetWare documentation. 
 
 
---------------------------------------------------------------- 
                    INABILITY TO CREATE EXTRACT FILE 
---------------------------------------------------------------- 
 
MESSAGES.DOC does not list all the conditions that can result 
in the error: 
 
    9503 Unable to create extract file. 
 
In addition to lack of disk space, insufficient directory 
entries, or disk error, this message can also result if an 
application has the extract file open.  If this error occurs, 
ensure that no users have the directory list open in their 
MHS-compatible applications.
