Task 2: Install and Configure NonStop™ IPX/SPX
7. Verify that the NonStop™ IPX/SPX subsystem can communicate with NetWare
servers by entering (at the TACL prompt) the SCF STATUS command on the
SERVER object:
>SCF STATUS SERVER $ZNV2.#SAP
You should see a display like the following that contains information about NetWare
servers on the LAN (at least one NetWare file server must be active when you start
the NonStop™ IPX/SPX subsystem).
Table 1-2. IPXPROTO Default Values
Parameter Default Value Description
IPXMAXSOCKETS 50* Maximum number of IPX sockets that can be
open at the same time
SPXMAXBINDS 25** Maximum number of concurrent explicit binds
to this IPXPROTO process
SPXMAXCONN 300 Maximum number of SPX connections that can
be open at the same time
QIOLIMIT 0 Percentage of QIO shared memory segment
allowed to this process
SPXMAXRESEND 65 Maximum number of times that SPX will
resend
SPXPINGINTERVAL 5 Number of minutes before a ping is sent to the
remote end of an SPX connection
* The NetWare API uses 32 sockets for printing. Do not increase this number unless you are running
applications that use IPX sockets.
** An explicit bind is the result of a socket bind call by an SPX application, typically a server process listening
on a socket. Do not increase this number unless you have more than 25 server processes using the IPXPROTO
process.
