Using Flash Cards with the Network Station

3.5.3 Creating a Peer Boot Configuration File
A new file must be created in
/QIBM/ProdData/NetworkStation/configs
, called
peer.nsm
, to distinguish it from the
flash.nsm
file.
This file overrides the normal settings with those required to redirect the
Network Station to load executable modules from the Flash card Network
Station.
An example of the
peer.nsm
file is shown in Figure 19.
Figure 19. Example Peer.nsm File
The
peer.nsm
file must be placed in to the following path on the serving
AS/400:
/QIBM/ProdData/NetworkStation/configs
.
# peer.nsm - place into the /local/configs on the Flash card
#
#Set up the file service table to access the server

{ "/netstation/prodbase/configs/" nil 10.1.1.30 tftp "/QIBM/ProdData/NetworkStation/configs/"
