AS/400 IBM Network Station: Techniques for Deployment in a WAN
7. After the copy operation is complete, look for the message on the AS/400
that informs you that all objects were copied and no (or zero) objects
failed. You can also use the IBM Network Station local file manager to
check that all the files have been copied using the
dir
command.
8. From the Network Station local file manager, type
verify on the /local file
system. This verifies the file structure and reports back any errors.
9. On the AS/400 command line, enter the following command:
UNMOUNT TYPE(*NFS) MNTOVRDIR('/nwslocal')
10.Power off the IBM Network Station.
11.Remove the Flash card and change the write protect switch to
write
protect
.
12.Replace the Flash card according to the manufacturers recommendations.
13.Please proceed to Section 3.3.10, “Booting the IBM Network Station Using
the Flash Card” on page 89.
3.3.9.2 Using the IBM Network Station File Manager
You can use the local file manager on the IBM network Station to view and
copy files to the local Flash card. The path to the Flash card is
/local
. You can
also view the IFS directory structure on the AS/400 using the local file
manager by changing to the root directory using the command
cd /,
assuming
that the host servers have been started on the AS/400.
A full local file manager command list is shown in Table 17 on page 88.
For information about starting the local file manager, refer to Section 3.3.8.1,
“Using the Local File Manager to Format the Flash Card” on page 82. Use the
following the steps to transfer the Flash test image created in the previous
section:
1. Ensure that the host servers are started on the AS/400 by entering the
following command on any AS/400 command line:
STRHOSTSVR SVR(*ALL)
2. Type cd /local and press
Enter
to ensure that you are in the Flash card
file system.
3. Type
mkdir /mods to create the directory to contain the executable modules.
4. Type
cd /QIBM/ProdData/NetworkStation/nsflash and press
Enter
.
5. Type
pwd
and press
Enter
to verify your current working directory, which
should be
/QIBM/ProdData/NetworkStation/nsflash as in the previous step.
