Add the following line to /etc/inetd.conf:

pmv4lsf stream tcp nowait root /etc/pmdv4lsf pmdv4lsf

Make a symbolic link from pmd_w to /etc/pmdv4lsf.

# ln -s $LSF_BINDIR/pmd_w /etc/pmdv4lsf

Add pmv4lsf to /etc/services.

For example:

pmv4lsf 6128/tcp #pmd wrapper

The port defined for this service will be used by

pmd_w and poe_w for

communication with each other.

poelsf 6129/tcp #pmd_w - poe_w communication port
