To change configuration, when required:
$ srp –replace <srp_name>
To revert the configuration, when required:
$ srp –delete <srp_name> delete_changes_ok=y
5.5 Additional container configuration
This section explains container configurations that might be required for certain environments.
5.5.1 Configuring host name or node name
By default, the container name is used as the node name and host name for the HP 9000 container.
For more information about how to modify this configuration, see Section 8.7 (page 53). Legacy
HP 9000 environments might not support long names. Hence, if the container name has more than
8 characters, the container must be given a different host name or node name.
Configure applications inside the HP 9000 container with the host name. Typically, this involves
editing the configuration files, but some applications store this name in databases or in internal
formats. For more information about how to edit the host name, see the respective application
documentation.
5.5.2 Configuring IP address
Configure applications inside the HP 9000 container to listen to the IP address of the container.
Some applications store the IP address in the databases. For more information about reconfiguring
IP addresses, see the respective application documentation.
Use HP 9000 system IP address for HP 9000 container when application license depends on IP
address cannot be migrated, or application reconfiguration for IP address is complex.
For more information about how to reconfigure IP address, see Section 8.6 (page 52).
5.5.3 Configuring additional IP addresses
Applications inside an HP 9000 container might require multiple IP addresses. Analyze the
configuration in the <hp9000_root>/etc-hp9000/rc.config.d/netconf configuration
file to find the number of configured IP addresses on the HP 9000 server.
If SG is used with HP 9000 container in the application package model, applications might require
an additional floating IP address.
For more information about how to reconfigure IP addresses, see Section 8.6 (page 52).
5.5.4 Configuring mount points
For information about how to configure NFS, Autofs, and VxFS mount points for the HP 9000
container, see Section 8.5 (page 50).
5.5.5 Restoring HP 9000 startup services
When setting up HP 9000 container, several daemons are deleted from the HP 9000 RC directories.
The concept used is, all the services that appear in HP 9000 swlist (except for those that are
supported inside the container) are moved out of <hp9000_root>/sbin/init.d. Application
daemons that were installed using SD might also get removed.
A backup of the RC scripts is available in the /sbin-hp9000/init.d directory and can be
restored manually (if required).
