Defining the HP 3000 System
The following configuration parameters are required to define the HP 3000 host for
asynchronous device connections.
Local HP 3000 Node Name The name by which the HP 3000 Series 900 computer is
known in your network. The format of a node name is
nodename.domain.organization, where each field can contain 16 or
fewer characters (alphanumeric, underscores, or hyphens). The first
character of each field must be alphabetic. For example:
ACCOUNTS.MKT2.HP.
Link Name The link name that is used by the HP 3000’s Datacommunications and
Terminal Subsystem (DTS) when device connections are established. It
must start with a letter and can be up to eight alphanumeric
characters. DTSLINK is the default and should be used for your DTS
configuration.
Physical Path of LAN2C (Slot # of LANIC Card) The location of the LANIC (Local
Area Network Interface Controller) card in the system's backplane.
The physical path of the card is determined by the location of the card
in the back plane. Labels on the system back panel lists the paths for
the slots. See the Hardware Installation manual for your system to
determine the optimum slot location.
