DCE for the HP 3000
Using the DCE Configuration Tool
The DCE configurator (called dce_config) is a shell script based
configuration tool, this enables you to run dce_config from within the
MPE/iX POSIX shell.
Check the following preliminary tasks before you enable the DCE
configuration main menu:
* Ensure that the system network is running (RPC requires network
sockets).
* Create an MPE/iX group named DCECONFG. At the system prompt,
enter:
NEWGROUP DCECONFIG
You must be in an MPE/iX group (that is, your working directory
must be an MPE/iX group not a POSIX directory) when you start the
POSIX shell that runs dce_config.
Perform the following steps to obtain the DCE Main Menu for configuring
cells:
1. Log on to the console as MANAGER.SYS,DCECONFG. At the system
prompt, enter:
HELLO MANAGER.SYS,DCECONFG
2. Enter the POSIX shell. At the system prompt, enter:
sh.hpbin.sys -L
The shell prompt is displayed (for example, shell/iX>).
3. Ensure that /usr/bin is in your shell command search path. At the
shell prompt, enter:
export PATH=/usr/bin:$PATH
4. Bring up the DCE configuration main menu. At the shell prompt,
enter:
dce_config
The DCE Main Menu is displayed on the console:
