Remote STREAMS Environment
HP-UX version 11.00.03 Remote STREAMS Environment 7-5
Updating the RSD Configuration
The otelrsd utility reads remote STREAMS driver (RSD) information from the
orsdinfo file, creates any needed device nodes, and updates the RSD
configuration. It makes two passes when reading the orsdinfo file:
■ The first pass checks both the format of the orsdinfo input file and the value
of each field. otelrsd prints an error message and exits immediately if an
error is found during the first pass.
■ If the first pass succeeds without error, the second pass processes each
orsdinfo statement and updates the orsd mapping table inside the kernel.
New operating system driver instances specified by operating system major
and minor number are added, existing operating system driver instances with
different communications adapter driver instances are updated, and all
existing operating system driver instances that are not specified in the
orsdinfo are removed.
The syntax for the otelrsd command is as follows:
otelrsd [–v] [–c] [-r]
The arguments are described as follows:.
For information related to orsdinfo and otelrsd, see the mknod(1M),
orsdinfo(4), and otelrsd(1M) man pages.
