of these services on the dedicated service LAN, and that they be hosted on either two NonStop
system consoles or two designated CLIMs.
To take advantage of significant enhancements in both the wizard and accompanying online help,
you should install and use the wizard included in OSM Console Tools, T0634 ABE (or later). How
to effectively use the wizard depends the current state of those services on your dedicated service
LAN and whether or not the NonStop Maintenance LAN DHCP DNS Configuration Wizard has
previously been used on one or both system consoles on that LAN. The online help in version
T0634 ABE and later includes the topic “Guide to Using the NonStop Maintenance LAN DHCP
DNS Configuration Wizard,” which can help you select the appropriate course of action for your
scenario.
When using the NonStop Maintenance LAN DHCP DNS Configuration Wizard to migrate DHCP,
TFTP, DNS, and BOOTP services between NonStop system consoles and CLIMs, refer to the
appropriate documented service procedure, located in the NonStop Technical Library, to make
sure that all preparatory and follow-up steps are completed:
• Changing the DHCP, DNS, or BOOTP Server from System Consoles to CLIMs
• Changing the DHCP, DNS, or BOOTP Server from CLIMs to System Consoles
NOTE: For a user (other than the default users preconfigured on NonStop system consoles) to
use the wizard, you must give that user the necessary OpenSSH permissions on the NSC, as
described in “Configuring Non-Default Users”.
Down System CLIM Firmware Update Tool
Installed as part of OSM Console Tools, T0634 ABB and later, the Down System CLIM Firmware
Update Tool is used, in conjunction with the Prepare for Down System CLIM Firmware Update
action in the OSM Service Connection, for updating firmware/BIOS for all CLIM components
during planned system down time, such as during RVU upgrades. For more information, see the
NonStop Cluster I/O Protocols (CIP) Configuration and Management Manual and the online help
available from within the tool.
The Down System CLIM Firmware Update Tool requires:
• OSM Service Connection SPR T0682 H02 ACV or later.
• SSH SPR T0801 ABA or later.
NOTE: For a user (other than the default users preconfigured on NonStop system consoles) to
perform the "Prepare for Down System CLIM Firmware Update" action, you must give that user
the necessary OpenSSH permissions on the NSC, as described in “Configuring Non-Default Users”.
Configuring Non-Default Users
For a user (other than the default users preconfigured on NonStop system consoles) to perform
certain OSM actions, you must give the local or domain user the necessary OpenSSH permissions
for both primary and backup NonStop system consoles. Those actions include:
• The "Prepare for Down System CLIM Firmware Update" action in the OSM Service Connection.
• The "Update HSS" and "Copy HSS Files" actions in the OSM Low-Level Link.
• Any action in the NonStop Maintenance LAN DHCP DNS Configuration Wizard that involves
connecting to the peer NSC.
NOTE: The default users preconfigured on NonStop system consoles by manufacturing include
Administrator, NSC_Administrator, and GCSC. Those user IDs get the necessary OpenSSH
permissions when OpenSSH is installed, as part of the Console CLIM Utilities (T0697), through the
NSC Master Installer.
