HP OTS/9000 Configuration Files
To Create A New File Set
To Create A New File Set
To create and activate a new file set, use the following sequence of
commands as an example.
$ mkdir /tmp/myconfig
$ cp /usr/opt/ots/newconfig/ * /tmp/myconfig
$ ls /tmp/myconfig
ap_user_app local_app
ots_genrl ots_subnets o ts-parms remote_app
ftam_parms ots_dests ots_routes
$ OSI_CONFIG=/tmp/myconfig
$ export OSI_CONFIG
$ osiadmin
From osiadmin you can modify the new active file sets.
When you run the OTS in this environment, the nodal management tools
will use the configuration files in /tmp/myconfig directory. Once the
environment variable is set, no further action is required. All of the nodal
management tools are programmed to look for this environment
variable.
NOTE Be careful when altering the OSI_CONFIG environment variable. While
the OTS tools recognize the OSI_CONFIG environment variable
immediately, the OTS stack will not use the configuration files
referenced by OSI_CONFIG until the stack is updated or the system
rebooted. When rebooting, be sure that OSI_CONFIG is defined properly
in the boot environment.
OTS tools can now manipulate any file set, active or alternate, that
resides on the local node. (An alternate file set is any file set that is not
active.) The following diagram shows the interaction of OTS tools and
the files sets.
