Remote STREAMS Environment
HP-UX version 11.00.03 Remote STREAMS Environment 7-3
Configuring the Host
Configuring the host for HP-UX version 11.00.03 includes the following tasks:
■ Creating or customizing the /etc/orse/orsdinfo file to reflect your
system configuration
■ Updating the ORSD configuration
■ Defining the HP-UX version 11.00.03 firmware and the physical hardware
path to the adapter cards in the /etc/lucent/opersonality.conf file
■ Killing and restarting the daemons
NOTE
The opersonality.conf works together with the odownload.conf
file; If you modify either file, you will need to kill and restart the
daemons and/or reboot the system to set the new parameters.
Creating the orsdinfo File
The /etc/orse/orsdinfo file defines the mapping table between an operating
system host STREAMS driver instance and a remote communications-adapter
STREAMS instance. It contains the following information:
■ PCI bay number
■ PCI slot number
■ OHRSD minor number
■ remote STREAMS drivers, identified by communications adapter major and
minor numbers
■ whether the remote STREAMS driver can be cloned
■ (Optional) whether an M-ERROR message is sent to the kernel when the
adapter is disabled
■ (Optional) number of transmit buffers to be used for the STREAM
■ (Optional) number of receive buffer to be used for the STREAM
The orsdinfo file is empty when the operating system is installed and remains
empty until you add one or more statements that define each
communications-adapter STREAMS-driver instance and information about a
communications adapter. For more information, see the orsdinfo(4) man page.
