Suggested Naming Conventions for SACs and PIFs
The SLSA subsystem automatically names the SACs and PIFs based on the name you
assign to the adapters. For example, if you assign the name G11123 to a G4SA, the
system names the SAC G11123.0. The PIFs for SAC G11123.0 are G11123.0.A,
G11123.0.B, G11123.0.C, and G11123.0.D.
LAN Configuration
1. Complete configuration forms for each PMF CRU (NonStop S-series servers only)
and adapter in the system. Write a command file to configure the adapters or
modify the configuration file shipped with your system:
a. See Figure 3-1 for a sample PMF CRU form. A blank copy of this form is also
at the end of this section.
b. See Adapter Manuals on page 1-7 to determine which manual has your
configuration form. Figure 3-2 shows a sample completed G4SA Configuration
Form.
2. When you have finished the configuration forms, place them in your
Documentation Packet. For more information about completing a PMF CRU
configuration form, see the NonStop S-Series Planning and Configuration Guide.
For more information about the Documentation Packet, see the planning guide for
your server model (for example, the NonStop NS-Series Planning Guide).
