Conﬁguring NCP for Downloading

The operational image now resides in the directory to which the

logical MOM$LOAD points. You must now enable downline loading

of the image on the appropriate circuit using NCP.

1 To ﬁnd the appropriate circuit, type the following command:

$MCR NCP SHOW KNOWN CIRCUITS

The system responds:

Known Circuit Volatile Summary as of 25-May-1993

Circuit State Loopback Adjacent

Name Routing Node

SVA-0 on

2 Go back into NCP and enable that circuit to honor service requests

by issuing the following NCP commands:

$MCR NCP SET CIRCUIT SVA-0 STATE OFF

$MCR NCP SET CIRCUIT SVA-0 SERVICE ENABLED

$MCR NCPSET CIRCUITSVA-0 STATE ON

Conﬁguring for Crash Dump Support

The VAX VMS load host can be set up to accept crash dumps from

the Remote Annex at any time. To enable this feature, you must assign

a DECnet node name and address to your Remote Annex and set up

NCP to point to a directory that will receive the crash dumps. You

will need the Remote Annex’s Ethernet address before you can

execute these commands. The show server command displays the

Remote Annex’s Ethernet address. See the Annex Interface for VMS

Environments Administrator’s Guide for more information about this

command.
