Setup guide
To test the path translation database:
1 Change to the Stone and Wire tools directory:
cd /usr/discreet/sw/tools
2 Type the sw_wiretap_translate_path command with the appropriate
options.
For example, suppose you have a SAN mounted as “/CXFS1” on your Flame
workstation (flame1). A Windows PC (windows1) will mount the SAN as “N:\”.
The path translation file contains the following entries:
<map src_host=“flame1” src_path=“/CXFS1”
dst_host=“windows1” dst_path=“N:\”>
From the workstation, open a new terminal and type:
./sw_wiretap_translate_path -h flame1-p /CXFS1/myclips -H
windows1
The result should return the value of the destination path, which represents
how “windows1” will mount“/CXFS1” on “flame1”.
N:\myclips
NOTE If the result returns the value of the source path, the translation database
entry was not successfully applied.
