• OpenView DTC Technical Reference Manual. This manual covers the
technical detail of the DTC, including protocol implementations and
limitations, explanation of how connections are established, and
information on event logging. It is intended for experienced DTC
users and programmers.
Configuration At a Glance
Before configuring your HP 3000 to use the DTC terminal servers, you
must have completed the following tasks. These tasks are not covered
in this manual:
1. Set up your HP 3000 and make sure it is operational. Refer to your
HP 3000 installation manual.
2. Install the DTC terminal servers on your LAN and connect the serial
devices to the DTC terminal servers. Refer to your DTC Hardware
Installation Guide.
Configuration Overview
Using New
Configuration File
The following steps summarize the procedure for configuring your
HP 3000 systems to use DTC terminal servers if you are using a new
network configuration file. For detailed information on these steps,
refer to Chapter 5, “Configuring Serial Devices (for Host-Based
Management),” and Chapter 6, “Configuring Serial Devices (for
PC-Based Management).”
1. Create your network configuration file NMCONFIG.PUB.SYS.
2. Run NMMGR.PUB.SYS.
3. Enter your HP 3000 node name, link name, and LANIC slot number.
4. Define each DTC to be connected with the HP 3000.
5. Configure each board in the DTC.
6. Validate your network configuration. (SYSGEN cross-validation is
done automatically within NMMGR.)
7. Exit NMMGR.
8. Perform a DTS shutdown and restart (or reboot your HP 3000).
Dynamic
Configuration
You can also make many DTS changes dynamically without rebooting
the system or performing a DTS shutdown/restart if you already have a
valid network configuration file and there were no DCC errors reported
during the last system reboot. These steps summarize the procedure for
dynamically configuring DTS. Refer to Chapter 4, “Dynamic
Configuration and DTS Shutdown/Restart,” for more information on
dynamic configuration. For detailed information on these steps, see
