FTAM Configuration Overview

The remainder of this section discusses how to configure a Tandem FTAM installation.

The following is a list of the configuration tasks and a suggested order for performing

them:

1. Install and configure prerequisite subsystems, including the OSI/AS, OSI/TS, and

TLAM (for D-series) or PAM (for G-series), X25AM, or NonStop TCP/IP

subsystems.

2. If applications using the Tandem responder access SQL tables as FTAM-2 files,

recompile your responder object files with NonStop SQL.

3. Configure your OSI manager process(es) with the addresses to be used by Tandem

FTAM processes.

4. Create the MIB for the APLMGR process.

5. Create the APLMGR process.

6. Change the default APLMGR configuration.

7. Start the APLMGR process.

8. Configure VFS profiles for FTAM responder processes.

9. Configure FTAM initiator and responder processes.

Regardless of how many APLMGR subsystems and underlying OSI/AS subsystems you

configure, or how you configure the relationships between them, follow the same basic

procedure to set up the system. Begin by installing the basic components necessary for

your installation.
