$ RUN SYS$SYSTEM:DECW$CLOCK
Refer to each logical entry in this section for instructions on setting the logical
correctly.
Do not use the hostname or IP address of the system where the software is being
installed unless you are performing the installation from the X-Windows console
of
that system.
Use the machine name or IP address of your own workstation if you
are installing from a remote system
.
If you are not sure of the X server and screen

Pro*COBOL Restriction
The use of incorrectly aligned binary data (such as
COMP-1
) in Pro*COBOL
applications will generate unaligned access warnings that will prevent optimum
compiler performance, but will not affect the application results.
Note:
If an Oracle server already exists on your system, then its
settings may have a bearing on the settings that you choose for the
new environment.
