4. Switch over to the Parallel Library TCP/IP environment.
Reset the DEFINEs, PARAMs, and/or transport-service provider name-set
procedure calls for your applications back to the conventional TCP/IP process
name.
a. Determine the name of a TCPSAM process name to use as a transport-
service provider. Use the LISTDEV command to obtain a list of running
TCP/IP processes, including TCPSAM processes:
->LISTDEV TCPIP
b. Change the transport-service provider name for Guardian and OSS
applications to the conventional TCP/IP process by entering one of these
commands:

ADD DEFINE =TCPIP^PROCESS^NAME, class map, file
$tcpsam-name

PARAM TCPIP^PROCESS^NAME $tcpsam-name
c. Change these procedure calls for Guardian and OSS socket applications:

socket_set_inet_name() (for Guardian applications)

socket_transport_name_set() (for OSS applications)
Software Replacement
You can install new NonStop TCP/IPv6 software product revisions (SPRs) without
having to halt and reload each processor. Follow the normal DSM/SCM steps to install
the SPR as described in the SOFTDOCs. These steps give an overview of the
process:
1. Receive the SPRs according to the instructions in the SOFTDOC. (DSM/SCM
RECEIVE, BUILD and APPLY commands.)
2. Stop any socket applications that are using NonStop TCP/IPv6.
3. Shut down the NonStop TCP/IPv6 environment (shut down the TCP6MAN,
TCP6MONs, and TCP6SAM processes). (See Stopping NonStop TCP/IPv6 and
Preserving the Current Configuration on page 6-11.)
4. Move the upgraded SPR files into the current SYSnn. (DSM/SCM ZPHIRNM
command.)
5. Restart the NonStop TCP/IPv6 environment, (start the TCP6MAN, TCP6MONs,
TCP6SAMs). (See Section 1,
Quick Start.)
6. Restart the socket applications that you stopped for this procedure.
