Performing an Automatic Configuration Outside NMMGR

Performing an Automatic Configuration Inside NMMGR

Step 1: Use Valid Configuration File

Step 2: Activate Automatic Configuration Process

Step 3: Complete Automatic configuration

This chapter describes how you can add and configure a new host-based managed DTC to the HP 3000 system without needing to specify detailed configuration information such as DTC cards/boards and ldevs (herein referred to as automatic configuration).

You can perform an automatic configuration by using a command file that is activated either outside or inside the NMMGR utility. You may choose to add a DTC automatically inside NMMGR if you need to make other DTS configuration changes. These two methods are described below.

	NOTE: If you want to dynamically implement DTS changes made in NMMGR (dynamic configuration) or perform a DTS shutdown or restart, refer to Chapter 4 “Dynamic Configuration and DTS Shutdown/Restart” If you want to manage/dynamically configure host-based X.25 links, refer to the Configuring and Managing Host-Based X.25 Links manual.
