NS X.25 Migration: NS 3000/V and NS 3000/XL Release 1.X to iX Release 2.0 or later
To Use NMMGRVER
To Use NMMGRVER
To use the NMMGRVER utility to merge your NS 3000/V configuration
file with the NS 3000/iX NMCONFIG file and convert it for use with
release 2.0 or later, proceed as follows:
Step 1. At the MPE/iX prompt, type: NMMGRVER.PUB.SYS
Step 2. Merge your NS X.25 3000/XL Server NSCONF file with the existing
NS 3000/XL NMCONFIG file, and convert it for use with NS 3000/iX
release 2.0 or later by entering a file name, for example:
NSCONF1.PUB.SYS
a. Enter Y to proceed when prompted.
b. Select type 1 for NSCONF type file.
NMMGRVER will merge the contents of the existing NMCONFIG file
with the NSCONF file you specified. It will be saved in the NSCONF
file you specified. In this example, NSCONF1.
Step 3. If you converted more than one NSCONF file, decide which one will be
the network configuration you want on the NS 3000/iX system. Rename
the file to NMCONFIG.PUB.SYS.
To Update X.25 XL System Access Parameters
On the NS 3000/iX host, use NMMGR to change the following
parameters to provide X.25 XL System Access:
1. If migrating from any NS 3000/V release before release V delta 7,
modify the screen at [e-mail].X25 to
change the inactivity timer from minutes to seconds.
2. On the screen with the path @LINK, verify that the DTSLINK is
defined.
3. On the screen with the path @LINK.DTSLINK, verify that the
physical path is correctly defined.
4. On the screen with the path @LINK, add the LINK name and Type
(X25) of the X25 link. Note: to migrate to NS 3000/iX release 2.2
or later, repeat this step and steps 5 through 7 for each
DTC/X.25 Network Access card.
5. On the screen with the path @LINK.linkname, where the LINK name
is the one added in the previous step, add the DTC Node name and
card number for the DTC/X.25 Network Access card.
6. On the screen with the path @NETXPORT.NI.niname.LINK, add the
LINK name entered in Step 4.
