Step 3: Configure the Local Node Name
The Main screen is displayed after you press the
[Open Config]
key (Figure 5-2). This
screen lets you specify the HP e3000 host’s name. It also asks whether you are using the
HP e3000 host or an OpenView Windows Workstation (PC) for DTC management, and if
you are using X.25 or PAD.

1. Assign a node name to the HP e3000 host in the “local HP e3000 node name”
field. Use the format nodename.domain.organization.
If your HP e3000 host is the only computer in your network, you may enter any node
name. If you have several computers on your network, you must make sure the node
names for each host are unique. Refer to Chapter 2, “Preparing to Configure DTCs,
for more information on node name.
2. In the field after the question, “Are you using the OpenView DTC Manager?”,
enter an N.
This means that you will not use the OpenView DTC Manager (that is, use a PC to
manage your DTCs). Instead, you will use the HP 3000 host to manage your DTCs.
If you specify “Y” for using OpenView DTC Manager refer to Chapter 6,
“Configuring Serial Devices (for PC-Based Management).
3. In the field after the question, “Do you have X.25 system-to-system or PAD
connections?”, enter an N for no.
