At the MPE/iX prompt, type: NMMGRVER.PUB.SYS and answer the questions.
Do either steps a through c or steps d through g.
If your NS 3000/V node had only an NMCONFIG file (but no NSCONF files), follow the instructions in steps a through c.
To convert the NMCONFIG file enter the file name: NMCONFIG.PUB.SYS.
Enter Y to proceed when prompted.
Select type 2 for NMCONFIG type file. The converted file will be saved with the file name you entered. In this case it is NMCONFIG.PUB.SYS. This is the only filename that the node will recognize as its configuration file.
If your NS 3000/V node had one or more NSCONF files, follow the instructions in steps d through g.
Merge your NS 3000/V NSCONF file with the NS 3000/V NMCONFIG file, and convert it for use with NS 3000/iX release 2.0 or later by entering a file name, for example: NSCONF1.PUB.SYS.
Enter Y to proceed when prompted.
Select type 1 for NSCONF type file. NMMGRVER will merge the contents of the existing NMCONFIG file with the NSCONF file you specified. It will be saved in the NSCONF file you specified. In this example, NSCONF1.
If you converted more than one NSCONF file, decide which one will be the network configuration you want on the NS 3000/iX system. Rename the file to NMCONFIG.PUB.SYS.
Updating X.25 XL System Access Parameters
On the NS 3000/iX host, use NMMGR to change the following parameters to provide X.25 XL System Access:
If migrating from any NS 3000/V release before release V delta 7, modify the screen at path @NETXPORT.NI.niname.PROTOCOL.X25 to change the inactivity timer from minutes to seconds.
On the screen with the path @LINK, verify that the DTSLINK is defined.
On the screen with the path @LINK.DTSLINK, verify that the physical path is correctly defined.
On the screen with the path @LINK, add the LINK name and Type (X25) of the X25 link. Note: to migrate to NS 3000/iX release 2.2 or later, repeat this step and steps 5 through 7 for each DTC/X.25 Network Access card.
On the screen with the path @LINK.linkname, where the LINK name is the one added in the previous step, add the DTC Node name and card number for the DTC/X.25 Network Access card.
On the screen with the path @NETXPORT.NI.niname.LINK, add the LINK name entered in Step 4.
On the screen with the path @NETXPORT.NI.niname.LINK.linkname, answer yes or no to start device on network initalization (default is yes) then, press the Update key.
Saving X.25 XL System Access Parameters
Make a list of the following X.25 XL System Access Parameters on the host that must be re-entered under OpenView DTC Manager.
Local Node Name.
Link Name (the X25 link, not the DTSLINK).
DTC Node Name.
DTC Card Number.
X.25 User Facility Set Parameters.
SVC and/or PVC numbers for each reachable node.
Adding Other Link Types
For LAN and Point-to-Point link types, run NMMGR and see other sections of this manual for the correct values to be entered.
Verifying DTS Configuration
If the datacommunications and terminal subsystem (DTS) has not been configured, configure the DTS parameters on the host according to the requirements of your network. For more information, refer to Getting Started with the DTC and Configuring Systems for Terminals, Printers, and Other Serial Devices if you are using PC-based network management. Refer to Configuring and Managing Host-Based X.25 Links if you are using host-based network management.
