Configuring Systems for Terminals, Printers, and Other Serial Devices (32022-90057)

Configuring Serial Devices (for PC-Based Management)

Modify the Network Management Configuration File

Chapter 6

NOTE If you want the HP e3000 system to be able to accept connections from terminals on

ARPA systems via a Telnet Express Server, you must use a modem profile for the

non-nailed terminals, such as TR10U24. Note that you may use direct connect devices

on a port with a modem profile.

See the Host-Based Terminal Profiles table in Chapter 7, “Terminal and Printer

Profiles,” for a list of available profiles. You may also create your own profile. For

more information on profiles, refer to Chapter 7, “Terminal and Printer Profiles.”

7. Enter the desired number of non-nailed PAD terminals to be allowed on the

HP 3000. Currently, NMMGR allows the configuration of up to 4649 terminal I/O

devices.

8. Enter the ldev number where the non-nailed pool should start. The non-nailed

devices will be configured on ldevs with the starting ldev number and higher.

For example if the number of ldevs is 2 and the starting number is 200 then the

non-nailed ldev would be 200 and 201. If 201 is already configured as a nailed device

then the non-nailed device would be 200 and 202.

9. Enter the profile to use for the non-nailed PAD terminals.

10. Press the

[Save Data]

key.

This concludes NMMGR configuration for PC-based management for this HP 3000

computer if this computer will not be accessing any nailed devices.

If the HP e3000 computer needs to access nailed ports in one or more DTCs, press the

[Go To DTC]

key and proceed to Step 5 to configure the nailed ports. Note that printers

and UPSs are nailed devices, so you need to configure any DTC that has printer or UPS

ports.

NOTE You can type “help whatsnew” at the command line of this screen for more information

on DTS dynamic configuration. You can also refer to Chapter 4, “Dynamic Configuration

and DTS Shutdown/Restart,” for more information on how to make DTS configuration

changes dynamically. Automatic DTC configuration is available for host-based

environments only.
