Modifying System File Configurations
Entering the SYSFILE Configurator
Replacing or Defining a Network Configuration File
The RDCC command (abbreviated RD) defines the network configuration file to be used. This
command also checks for conflicts with SYSGEN’s I/O configuration. The file named
becomes NMCONFIG.PUB.SYS for SYSGEN’s tape only. The user must install or update the
system from tape before the file can be used by the network software.
RDCC has the following parameter:
RDCC (RD) [FILE =] filename
The FILE parameter identifies the network configuration file. If the name is not fully
qualified, it defaults to the current group and account. If no file parameter is entered, the
network configuration file is changed back to NMCONFIG.PUB.SYS.
To add the network configuration file information to the current SYSGEN configuration
information, enter the command and file name. Then, follow this sample sequence:
sysfile>RDCC filename.group.account
sysfile>HOLD (Cross-validation conflicts noted)
sysfile>EXIT
sysgen>IO (Make I/O changes if necessary)
(Conflicts also noted here)
sysgen>KEEP NETWORK (Conflicts also noted here)
sysgen>TAPE (Conflicts also noted here)
For additional information, refer to Chapter 5 , “Modifying Input/Output (I/O)
Configurations.” For additional information on remote configurations, refer to the
Asynchronous Serial Communications System Administrator's Reference Manual and the
HP 3000/iX Network Planning and Configuration Guide.
Replacing an IPL Image
The RIPL command (abbreviated RI) replaces an existing IPL image in the list of files
dumped onto SYSGEN’s tape. The command has the following parameters:
RIPL (RI) [IMAGE =] imagename [FILE =] filename
IMAGE specifies an existing IPL image to be modified or replaced. If the specified image
does not exist, an error occurs and the system issues a message.
FILE specifies a file name to replace the specified IPL image. If it is not fully qualified with
group and account name, it defaults to the current group and account. If the specified file
does not exist, an error occurs and the system issues a message.
There can be only one disk and one tape IPL, each of which is replaced by its image name.
Both IPL files must reside on the tape.
To replace an IPL image, enter the command and the image and file names:
sysfile>RIPL imagename filename
Replacing the Native Mode Library
The RNMLIB command (abbreviated RN) replaces the system NM library that resides in
NL.PUB.SYS. The RNMLIB command has the following parameters:
RNMLIB (RN) [FILE =] filename
