Cluster I/O Protocols (CIP) Configuration and Management Manual (H06.16+, J06.05+)

2. Add a connection to a CLIM by using the SCF ADD CLIM command:
NOTE: This step is usually done by your service provider but if you delete a CLIM for some
reason, you need to re-add it to make it operational again.
> ADD CLIM $ZZCIP.N1002532, LOCATION (100,2,5,3,2) , PROVIDER ZTC02
This step does not affect the CLIM itself; rather, this command adds a CLIM SCF object to the
CIP subsystem on the NonStop host system. Alternatively, you can use the Configure CLIM
action in the OSM Service Collection to add the connection to the CLIM. Add subsequent
CLIMs to the subsystem by using the OSM:
1. In OSM, right-click on the CLIMs object and select Actions.
2. Select the Configure CLIMs action and click Perform action
3. Read the confirmation text and then click OK.
4. Enter the desired CLIM parameters and click OK.
3. For IP CIP, ADD a CIPSAM process to go with your new provider.
> ADD PROCESS $ZZKRN.#CIPSAM, AUTORESTART 10, PRIMARYCPU 1,&
BACKUPCPU 2, NAME $ZTC02, PROGRAM $SYSTEM.SYSTEM.CIPSAM, &
HOMETERM $ZHOME, STARTMODE SYSTEM, STOPMODE SYSMSG, &
STARTUPMSG "<BCKP-CPU>"
4. The CIPSAM process starts automatically. For IP CIP, to start the provider, issue the SCF START
PROVIDER command. For example:
> START PROVIDER $ZZCIP.ZTC02
5. To start the SCF CLIM object, issue the SCF START CLIM command. For example:
> START CLIM $ZZCIP.N1002532
Other Tasks (IP and Telco CIP Only)
Setting the Host Names (IP and Telco CIP Only)
Name resolution for CIP is a function of the socket library on the NonStop host system. To provide
for this function, customize the following files and parameters:
NOTE: These files are in $SYSTEM.ZTCPIP on the NonStop host system.
For information about managing these files during a SUT installation, see the H06.xx Software
Installation and Upgrade Guide or the J06.xx Software Installation and Upgrade Guide. (H06.xx
and J06.xx are the RVUs associated with your CIP RVU. For example, if you have the CIP version
that supports H06.14, see the H06.14 Software Installation and Upgrade Guide in the NonStop
Technical Library (NTL) on docs.hp.com,.
• The HOSTS file
• The TCPIP^HOST^FILE DEFINE
• The IPNODES file
• The TCPIP^RESOLVER^ORDER PARAM
• The RESCONF file
• The NETWORKS file
Hosts within an IP network communicate through their IP addresses. However, IP addresses are
not easy to remember. As a result, it is common practice to assign host names to IP addresses;
commands can then refer to a host by name.
The component that provides the translation between a host name and an IP address is called a
Domain Name Resolver (DNR). To resolve names, the DNR uses either a Domain Name Server
(DNS) or a HOSTS file; configure the DNR to use one or the other.
