Configuring Systems for Terminals, Printers, and Other Serial Devices
Defining the HP 3000 System
The following configuration parameters are required to define the HP 3000
hostfor asynchronous device connections.
Local HP 3000 Node The name by which the HP 3000 Series 900 computer
Name is known in your network.The format of a node name
is nodename.domain.organization, where each field
can contain 16 or fewer characters (alphanumeric,
underscores, or hyphens). The first character of
each field must be alphabetic. For example:
ACCOUNTS.MKT2.HP.
Are You Using Determines the method to be used for network
OpenView DTC management. If the answer is YES then the system
Manager? will be configured using PC-based network
management. If the answer is NO, then the system
will be configured using host-based network
management.
Link Name The link name that will be used by the HP 3000's
Datacommunications and Terminal Subsystem (DTS)
when device connections are established.It must
start with a letter and can be up to eight
alphanumeric characters. DTSLINK is the default

Physical Path of The location of the LANIC (LAN Interface Controller
LANIC (Slot # of Card) in the system's backplane.The LANIC is an
LANIC Card) input/output (I/O) card that plugs into the Channel
I/O Bus (CIB) (or the HP Precision Bus for NIO
LANICs) of the HP 3000 computer. The location
(slot number) of the LANIC within the cabinet must
be specified.
The default physical paths (slot numbers) for HP
3000 computers are listed below. These defaults
optimize performance and use of the computer's
cabinet space. Before moving the LANIC into
another slot, consult an HP representative.
