Step 9: Ensure DTS Changes Become Active
If you answered Y to the question “Do you want DTS changes to
become active now (Y/N/H)?” upon NMMGR exit in step 8, refer
to Table 4-1 in Chapter 4, “Dynamic Configuration and DTS
Shutdown/Restart,” for a list of configuration tasks and associated
actions for changes to become active.
For those tasks indicating “No action; changes take effect dynamically,”
no additional actions are required for the DTS changes to become
active. You will see a message on the screen indicating that no other
actions are required.
For other tasks requiring additional actions for changes to become
active, you will see messages on the screen indicating what actions
must be taken first.
NOTE If you answered N to the question in step 8, thus choosing not to call
DTCCNTRL, refer to Chapter 4, “Dynamic Configuration and DTS
Shutdown/Restart,” for details on how to invoke DTCCNTRL outside
NMMGR.
Performing a DTC Reboot
First, logoff any sessions. To reset the DTC, turn off the power and then
turn on the power again for the DTC.
You may also use TermDSM, an online diagnostic program for
host-managed DTCs, to reset the DTC. Refer to Troubleshooting
Terminal, Printer, and Serial Device Connections for more information.
Performing a DTS Shutdown/Restart
To perform a DTS shutdown and restart, use the DTCCNTRL command.
Refer to Chapter 4, “Dynamic Configuration and DTS
Shutdown/Restart,” for more information on how to use this command
to perform a DTS shutdown/restart.
