OSF DCE Administration Guide--Introduction

OSF DCE Administration Guide—Introduction
1. Shutdown DCE (by selecting option 4 in the dce_config Main Menu).
2. Change the machine’s network address and reboot the operating system, as needed.
3. Remove the machine’s CDS cache:
rm /opt/dcelocal/var/adm/directory/cds/cds_cache*
4. Update the network address in the /opt/dcelocal/etc/security/pe_site file.
5. Update the network address in the /opt/dcelocal/etc/cds_config file.
6. Restart DCE (by selecting option 3 in the dce_config Main Menu).
7. If necessary, update the following CDS objects:
/.:/hosts/hostname/self
/.:/hosts/hostname/dts-entity
These CDS objects contain bindings that are exported when the cell is configured
by the dce_config script, but are not checked when daemons are restarted.
In order to ensure that the self and dts_entity objects have the proper updated
address, run the dcecp program’s object show command for each object:
dcecp> object show /.:/hosts/hostname/object
If the network address listed in the Tower attribute is incorrect, change it to an
appropriate one.
To update the network address of the self object, use the dcecp program’s
rpcentry unexport command to unexport the object’s binding:
dcecp> rpcentry unexport /.:/hosts/hostname/object -interface interface_id \
-object if_uuid
The UUID value if_uuid for the object can be obtained by running the following
command:
dcecp> rpcentry show /.:/hosts/hostname/object -interface interface_id\
-object if_uuid
Now update the object with the correct (new) network address. The command you
enter to this is the following:
dcecp> rpcentry export /.:/hosts/hostname/object -interface interface_id \
-binding protocol_sequence -object if_uuid
The procedure for updating the dts-entity object’s network address differs from
that for other CDS objects. First, you must stop the dtsd process on the target host.
Then, you must delete the /.:/hosts/hostname/dts-entity object (by using the dcecp
programs object delete command). Finally, you must restart the dtsd process
(using dce_config).
