Configuring Your System Manually

The installation script modifies several system files, so you may wish to configure your system manually. This section describes the modifications you should make to various system files.

/etc/conf/dfile

Add cfddi to this file.

/etc/master

Add the following lines to the end of the fileset section in /etc/master:

*fileset CFDDI cfddi cfddi 10 100 -1 -1

/etc/netlinkrc

Add the bold text to the following code in /etc/netlinkrc.

case $NODENAME in $ROOTSERVER) /etc/ifconfig lan0 inet 'hostname' up STATUS=$? if [ ! $STATUS -eq 0 ] then net_init=1 fi /etc/lanconfig lan0 ether STATUS=$? if [ ! $STATUS -eq 0 ] then net_init=1 fi /etc/ifconfig lan# inet hostname up STATUS=$? if [ ! $STATUS -eq 0 ] then net_init=1 fi ;;

In the example above, lan# is the LAN interface number for the FDDI interface, and hostname is the host name of the FDDI interface.

/etc/netnmrc

To install the SNMP agent, add the following lines to /etc/netnmrc.

if [-x /etc/snmpd.cfddi ]; then SNMPD=/etc/snmpd.cfddi elif ....

Making a New Kernel

Install the driver object into the archive library to allow access by the ar utility:

For HP-UX 8.07, enter the following:

ar -rv /etc/conf/libusrdrv.a cfddi.hp8.o

For HP-UX 9.01, enter the following:

ar -rv /etc/conf/libusrdrv.a cfddi.hp9.o

For more information, see the man pages for the ar utility.

To make the new kernel, enter the following:

cd /etc/conf config -m /etc/master /etc/conf/dfile make -f config.mk

When the make process is complete, back up the old kernel, copy the new one to the root directory, and reboot the system using the following commands:

cp /hp-ux /hp-ux.save cp ./hp-ux /hp-ux sync cd / shutdown -h -y -0
