7. Modify the System Initialization Command File
So far, we have created everything required to make our network functional. Next, we need to add
supporting statements in the system initialization command file to bring up AlphaNET using the
parameters in our network initialization file, network ersatz file, and SYSNAM.DAT file.
Below there is an example of a system initialization command file with all the required modifications for
supporting AlphaNET highlighted in bold type. Following the system initialization command file is an
explanation for each of the modifications.
If you are not familiar with modifying the AMOS system initialization command file, you must
read the section “Updating the System Initialization Command File” in Chapter 3 before even
editing the file
improperly modifying this file can leave your computer unable to boot.
