10.2 Item modification
An item can be modified in one of the configuration files using the MIDAS Monitor
functions mgf or iset. For further information on the use of the mgf function, see
section 7.7 Configuring an MDR Unit by preloading the Boot Parameter Files.
The
iset command can be used as follows:
Following the board's self-test, the MDR unit will present a short countdown to
permit you to enter the MIDAS monitor:
Press any key to interrupt the countdown and then press the Enter key 2 or 3 times
within 2 seconds (to perform autobaud). The MIDAS monitor prompt # should then
appear.
Update an item with the
iset command:
#iset <section> <item> <text> <file>
For instance, to change the number of disks used (to 8) by the MDR system, type in
the MIDAS Monitor:
#iset StorageInfo Disks 8 mdr.ini
Exit the monitor with the quit command:
#quit
The MDR unit will reboot. This time, allow the countdown to expire and the MDR
firmware will begin executing.
For more information on the
iset command, please see the MIDAS Monitor online help
(help command under the MIDAS Monitor).
