Finishing the Process
6.1 Configuring Datacomm and UPS
• Copy the NMCONFIG file from another system. The other system must be on the
same release as the system you are working on and must have a similar
configuration.
Proceed to Step 2.
2. If you are getting a copy of the NMCONFIG file from another system:
a. Log onto the other system and store the file.
:HELLO MANAGER.SYS;HIPRI
:FILE T;DEV=TAPE
:STORE NMCONFIG.PUB.SYS; *T;SHOW
b. Return to the system you are modifying and restore the file.
:HELLO MANAGER.SYS;HIPRI
:FILE T;DEV=TAPE
:RESTORE *T;NMCONFIG.PUB.SYS;OLDDATE;DEV=1;SHOW
c. Note that you will need to update the copied NMCONFIG file with the system name,
network addresses, DTC information, and other devices for your system as part of
the Cross Validating Task.
d. Proceed to step 3.
3. Run the NMMGRVER conversion utility.
:RUN NMMGRVER.PUB.SYS
4. Enter the filename NMCONFIG.PUB.SYS at the prompt.

proceed to Step 5.
• If the return message is conversion completed

Power/Trust UPS device, proceed to Step 6.
• If the return message is no need to convert, and you are not adding any network,
datacomm, or UPS products, proceed to Step 14.
Configuring HP PowerTrust UPS Monitor/iX

hardware, provides system power failure protection on HP 3000 Models 9x9KS, 9x8LX,
9x8RX, 991, and 995.
If this is a new installation, and you plan to use the HP PowerTrust Monitor/iX
software to monitor your UPS devices, or if this is an existing system and you are
changing (adding or deleting) your UPS configuration, you must configure the UPS
devices after updating your system.
You can configure UPS devices in two ways depending on your system setup:
