Open System Services NFS Management and Operations Guide
2 OSS NFS Quick Start
This chapter provides a quick way to start a configuration that should work correctly on most
environments with only minor modifications. The procedure assumes that the underlying operating
system is configured and running. For further installation details, see Chapter 4 (page 36).
An Initial Test Configuration
This example configuration should not be regarded as a recommended configuration. Chapter 4
(page 36), contains detailed information and recommendations for configuring OSS NFS.
In this example:
• The OSS NFS executable files are located in $system.ZOSSNFS.
• The TCP/IP (conventional, Parallel Library, and NonStop TCP/IPv6) executable files are located
in $system.ZTCPIP.
• There is a host file with these contents:
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx server
yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy workstation_client
where:
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
is the IP address of the stack on the NonStop system acting as the OSS NFS server host.
server
is the name of the system acting as the OSS NFS server host.
yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy
is the IP address of the workstation accessing OSS NFS.
workstation_client
is the name of the workstation accessing OSS NFS.
In this example the host file is named $system.ZTCPIP.hostS. If Domain Name Services
(DNS) or Network Information Services (NIS) is running in your environment, the equivalent
address mapping must reside in the DNS or NIS database.
• For NonStop TCP/IPv6 and Parallel Library TCP/IP, the TCP/IP process is either the TCP6SAM
(NonStop TCP/IPv6) or TCPSAM (Parallel Library TCP/IP) process configured by your network
administrator. To obtain a list of TCP/IP, TCP6SAM, and TCPSAM processes, issue the SCF
LISTDEV TCPIP command. The Program column of the display for the LISTDEV TCPIP command
identifies the process type as TCPIP for conventional, TCP6SAM for NonStop TCP/IPv6, or
TCPSAM for Parallel Library TCP/IP.
• The RPC executable files are located on $SYSTEM.ZRPC.
• The OSS file system is started.
• The QIO subsystem is started.
Installation and Test Configuration Startup Steps
To install OSS NFS:
1. Restore the OSS NFS software from tape or use DSM/SCM to place OSS NFS in its target
subvolume (TSV).
2. Run the SETUP program in the OSS NFS TSV by entering this command at an HP Tandem
Application Command Language (TACL) prompt:
SETUP
