Configuring HP DCE Cells
Configuring Cells Using dce_config
performance in multi-LAN cells. If you choose to have a LAN profile
created, dce_config asks for the name of the local LAN. The name
you provide is arbitrary, and is used by dce_config to store LAN
profile information.
Create LAN profile so clients and servers can be divided
into profile groups for higher performance in a multi-lan
cell? (n) n

S:****** Waiting for registry propagation...

Modifying ACLs on /.:/hosts/hostname/cds-server
5. After starting the CDS client daemon, dce_config prompts for the
name of the CDS clearinghouse. Enter a name of your choice.
What is the name for this clearinghouse? hostname_ch

6. dce_config asks if more directories should be replicated. If you
answer y, dce_config prompts for a list of directories to be
replicated:
Should more directories be replicated? (n) y
Enter a list of directories to be replicated, separated by
spaces, and terminated by <RETURN>
Notes on Configuring Additional CDS Servers
Immediately after configuring an additional CDS server, you should,
while logged in as cell_admin, skulk the root directory using the
following command:
dcecp -c directory synchronize /.:
This will initiate the propagation of a consistent copy of the changed root
directory information to all the CDS servers, and will prevent problems
which might arise from use of inconsistent information before this
propagation. The use of several CDS servers may increase the time
required to complete the propagation of this information.
