2. Prepare to Install and Configure the Subsystem
TCP/IP (Parallel Library) Configuration and Management Manual, which has a
procedure for stopping Parallel Library TCP/IP as a generic process.

You are running as user SUPER.SUPER.
2. Prepare to Install and Configure the Subsystem
Before performing any of the configurations in these quick start examples, perform the
tasks in this subsection. These steps ensure that your environment is ready to run
NonStop TCP/IPv6. Variables in the examples are indicated with italics. You must
substitute real values from your environment for these variables.
1. Check for any issues that affect your configuration. See the TCP/IPv6 Migration
Guide.
2. Ensure that the PROTOCOL configuration file in $SYSTEM.ZTCPIP was updated
with the ipv6 and icmpv6 lines from the SMPLPROT file on the Site Update Tape
(SUT). See PROTOCOL File on page D-13.
3. Select a LIF of TYPE ETHERNET for communications.
a. Obtain a list of all LIFs. Enter this command at the SCF prompt:
(Do not select LANX or LANY.)
b. Using one of the LIF names from Step 3, determine if the LIF is of TYPE
ETHERNET by issuing this command at the SCF prompt:
c. Ensure that the LIF you are configuring for NonStop TCP/IPv6 is accessible to
all processors on which you plan to run NonStop TCP/IPv6 by entering this
command at the SCF prompt:
The “CPUs with Data Path” field lists the processors to which the LIF is
accessible.
d. Make a note of this LIF name for later configuration.
Note. Issue the SCF LISTDEV TCPIPV6 and LISTDEV PTCPIP commands to determine
if either subsystem is running. (Parallel Library TCP/IP is not supported on Integrity
NonStop servers.)

Note. To use Ethernet failover and also to service Ethernet 4 ServerNet adapters (E4SAs) or
Gigabit Ethernet 4-port ServerNet adapters (G4SAs) without taking down TCP/IP
communications, select two LIFs from different adapters.
