NMMGRVER
Using the Conversion Program
Step 3. If you are converting only an NMCONFIG file, enter 2.
Step 4. If you are converting NS transport data as well as configuration data,
enter 1. NMMGRVER will combine the MPE/V NSCONF file containing
the transport data with the MPE/V NMCONFIG.PUB.SYS, convert the
file and save it under the same name as the source NSCONF file.
NOTE The NSCONF file can have any valid MPE file name. If you have used
another name instead of NSCONF, NMMGRVER will use that name as the
final name for your conversion file. For example, if you have two files,
MYCONF and NMCONFIG.PUB.SYS, NMMGRVER will combine the files into
a file called MYCONF and then convert it, overwriting the original
MYCONF. When the conversion is finished, you must rename or purge
the existing NMCONFIG.PUB.SYS and then rename MYCONF to
NMCONFIG.PUB.SYS replacing the old NMCONFIG.PUB.SYS.
After each file is converted NMMGRVER will display the following
message:
Conversion Completed Successfully (NMMGRVERMSG 0)
Step 5. Continue to enter either Y, N, or
[RETURN] until you have converted all
files.
Step 6. Run NMMGR and modify any of the configuration files, as needed.
Merging MPE/V With MPE/iX
This conversion procedure is for networks running a combination of
NS 3000/V X.25 (release V-delta 3 or later) and NS 3000/XL 1.0, 1.1 or
1.2. Only the X.25 configuration information from NS 3000/V will be
merged. If you also had LAN or point-to-point information in the
MPE/V configuration file, you will have to reconfigure this information
on your iX machines after using NMMGRVER.
The basic steps for this merge procedure are given in this section, but
you also must refer to the migration information in the HP 3000/iX
network Planning and Configuration Guide. That manual describes the
process in detail and includes all X.25-specific considerations you must
know about.
NOTE Restore the NS 3000/V NSCONF configuration file to the NS 3000/iX
system. Name the NS 3000/V file with the same name it had on the
NS 3000/V node. This procedure assumes that there already is an
NS 3000/iX NMCONFIG.PUB.SYS vers. 1.x configuration on the
NS 3000/iX node. Do not overwrite it with the NS 3000/V version.
Step 1. At the MPE/iX prompt, type RUN NMMGRVER.PUB.SYS.
