Specifying the Base Configuration Group
Specifying the Base Configuration Group
MPE/iX provides default configuration groups for each hardware model. For example,
names of some of the groups are confg950, confg930, and confg922 and they are located in
the SYS account. When you set up your system, you normally use one of the default
configuration groups to begin with and modify it so it matches the exact configuration of
the system. This procedure is explained in detail in Performing
System Management Tasks.
When using HPINSTAL to create a CSLT for another system, you can create a CSLT for a
different configuration group to be used on the remote system. When HPINSTAL displays
the following text, you are able to specify the configuration group of your choice.
You have chosen to create a CSLT for a remote system. You can
specify the configuration group that you want to be used to make
the tape. By doing so, system files that are part of that
configuration will be placed on the CSLT for the remote site.
Please realize that HPINSTAL will create the CSLT with the SYSGEN
command `TAPE NOCONFIG'.
When ready to create the CSLT, HPINSTAL will copy your current
configuration group to HPCONFIG.SYS and use that as the base
group. If you have customized a configuration group that you
would like HPINSTAL to use as the base group while creating the
CSLT, please provide it now.
Base group (RETURN for default) >> [[Return]]
You should press [RETURN], unless you plan to add installation-specific files to the CSLT.
Refer to “Preparing a Base Group for a Remote System” for how to set up the base group.
