Configuring Data Communication 

You must configure your data communication because the information is
used by the data communication terminal controller(s) (DTC) to allow
terminal communication.

   1.  Log on and and create a new file from the sample file
       NMSAMP1.PUB.SYS. Follow the steps below.

                 :HELLO MANAGER.SYS 
                 :FILE CONFIG=NMCONFIG.PUB.SYS;DEV=1 
                 :FCOPY FROM=NMSAMP1.PUB.SYS;TO=*CONFIG;NEW 

   2.  Use NMMGR to modify the DTS configuration in NMCONFIG.

       _________________________________________________________________ 

       NOTE  NMSAMP1 does not contain a value in the physical path field
             of the DTSLINK screen.  When you are in NMMGR, enter the
             value 56 in the physical path field.  You must also supply
             the local node name.

       _________________________________________________________________ 

       If you have a PC-based network management, configure the DTC(s)
       following the installation and configuration procedures described
       in the Using the OpenView DTC Manager Manual (D2355-90001).  For
       more information on host-based network management, refer to the
       Configuring Systems for Terminals, Printers and Other Serial 
       Devices Manual (32022-61000).  For more information on NMMGR,
       refer to Using Node Management Services (NMS) Utilities 
       (32022-61005).

       If you have purchased the MPE/iX NS product, use the "guided
       configuration" within NMMGR to configure NS. You must also use
       NMMGR to validate the DTS configuration and the MPE/iX NS product
       (if it is on your system).  When you have completed the validation
       in NMMGR, exit the program

                 :NMMGR 

       After you have made your changes to the datacomm configuration,
       NMMGR automatically runs SYSGEN to cross validate the system and
       datacomm configuration.  You can then exit NMMGR.

   3.  Shut down the system.

                 CTRL A 
                 =SHUTDOWN

_________________________________________________________

            

       There will be several shutdown messages similar to those shown
       above.

   4.  After the last shutdown message, (Shut 6), restart the system by
       pressing the CTRL and B keys at the same time.  Respond to the
       prompts as shown.  You must connect to the service processor
       before you can restart the system.

                 CTRL B 
                 CM>SP 
                 SP>RS

|                                                                        |
|      Type Y to confirm your intention to execute this command (y/n): Y |
|                                                                        |
|                                                                        |
__________________________________________________________________________

            

       Do not respond to "Press any key within 10 seconds to cancel boot
       with this configuration."

       If the system does not respond to the CTRL B within ten seconds
       power the system off and then back on again, and repeat step 5.

   5.  Confirm that you want to boot the system from the primary path.

___________________________________________________________

            

       When the system is up, power cycle all DTCs, or perform a reset
       using TERMDSM in SYSDIAG (you only need to do this for host-based
       DTCs).

       Start the system from the disk:

                 ISL>START NORECOVERY 

       _________________________________________________________________ 

       NOTE  Rebooting the system enables the validated datacomm
             configuration to take effect on the system.

             Power cycling each DTC enables the new download file and the
             DTC configurations to be downloaded to the DTCs.  The DTCs
             will not work if this step is not completed.

       _________________________________________________________________ 

       The system displays a series of startup messages, and you are
       prompted to confirm the date and time, as shown below.

       If the date and time displayed are accurate, respond Y. If not,
       respond N, and enter the correct date and time when prompted.
       Time must be entered in a 24-hour format (e.g., 5:00 p.m.  is
       entered as 17:00).  Seconds default to 00 if not specified.

       NOTE  NS3000/XL now includes information files that describe the
             supported set of servers and services.  These information
             files are used to build a configuration file called
             DADCONF.NET.SYS. Be sure to perform the following steps.
             Wait until the jobstream is complete before starting step 7
             below.

       _________________________________________________________________ 

                 :HELLO MANAGER.SYS; HIPRI 
                 :SPOOLER LP;START 
                 :STREAMS streams device 
                 :LIMIT 1,1 
                 :STREAM JCONFJOB.NET.SYS 

       _________________________________________________________________ 

       NOTE  If you have the NewWave Office products, HP Resource Sharing
             or HP Information Access, please go to chapter 3 to complete
             your installation or update.  After you have completed the
             instructions in chapter 3, continue with step 7 below.

       _________________________________________________________________ 

   6.  If you have NS3000/XL configured, bring up the configured network
       interfaces.  Be sure to use the same names for the network
       interfaces that were used in the configuration.

       For example, if you have configured network interfaces with the
       names LOOP and LAN1, enter:

                 :NETCONTROL START;NET=LOOP 
                 :NETCONRTOL START;NET=LAN1 
                 :NSCONTROL START 

       If you have configured only the router network interface with the
       name ROUTER1, enter:

                 :NETCONTROL START;NET=ROUTER1 
                 :NSCONTROL START
