Update NonStop TCP/IP Configuration Files
Update NonStop TCP/IP Configuration Files
Step 1: Copy the Sample TCP/IP Files Into $SYSTEM.ZTCPIP
(Optional)
You need to copy the sample files if you do not have any of the following NonStop
TCP/IP configuration files in your $SYSTEM.ZTCPIP subvolume:
•
HOSTS
•
PROTOCOL
•
NETWORKS
•
PORTCONF
•
RESCONF
•
SERVICES
Perform a FUP DUP operation to rename the sample configuration files from the
H06.05 SUT to the real file name.
The sample configuration files are named:
•
SMPLHOST
•
SMPLPROT
•
SMPLNETW
•
SMPLPORT
•
SMPLRESC
•
SMPLSERV
Note. You must have all the NonStop TCP/IP configuration files in your $SYSTEM.ZTCPIP
subvolume. Otherwise, applications dependent on proper network connections will fail.
Alerts:
•
See Back Up (Copy) Files in the $SYSTEM.ZTCPIP Subvolume (Best Practice) on
page 5-2.
•
For the DSM/SCM Planner Interface to be operational, the PORTCONF file must have the
correct entry for DSM/SCM. The SERVICES file must have an entry that specifies DSM
and its corresponding port number.
•
Keep your current PROTOCOL file in your $SYSTEM.ZTCPIP subvolume. Update it (if
necessary) with the new lines from the sample PROTOCOL file (SMPLPROT).
Note. Copy these configuration files only if you do not already have versions of these files.
Depending on your applications, if you copy the configuration files, you might have to insert
previous network port information into each individually copied file.
