OSF DCE Administration Guide--Introduction

Installing DCE

7.2.11 Installing a Security Server Replica

You can install replicas of Security servers within your cell to help ensure the

availability of the registry database. To install a replica Security server, type 9 at the

DCE Installation Menu and press <RETURN>.

The dce_conﬁg script installs the replica, displaying a message describing what it is

doing as it does it, and returns the DCE Installation Menu.

7.2.12 Installing DFS Clients

DFS client binaries are automatically installed on those machines on which you have

installed a DFS server. Therefore, you must install the client binaries only on those

machines on which you have not installed a server.

To install the DFS client binaries, perform the following steps:

1. Type 10 at the DCE Installation Menu and press <RETURN>.

The dce_conﬁg script installs the client binaries and prompts for whether to install

additional optional command client binaries on the machine. Generally it is useful

to install these administrative commands, particularly the cm command that is

used to manage the client cache manager.

Would you like to install: cm bos fts bak,

(all are optional) on this machine (y)?

2. Type y to install the optional servers or n to not install them and press

<RETURN>.

When dce_conﬁg completes the DFS client installation, it returns the DCE Main

Menu.
