ClearPath IX Systems Installation and Configuration Guide

Verifying the Interconnects and Achieving Hardware RFU
The CMS-SETUP Run
A run called CMS-SETUP, provided on the HMP-FLD tape (13.3), prepares CMS 1100 for
use. CMS-SETUP interactively solicits the addresses and device names needed for a
minimum configuration. The information you need is described after these notes.
Notes:
• The external Ethernet LAN may be installed as a private network (2.4.2) or as part
of a much larger network such as the Internet. In either case, you must supply the
second and third items of information listed below.
• The external Ethernet LAN is separate from the internal FDDI LAN. The two must
not have the same IP address. For the external LAN, do not use any of the IP
addresses reserved for the internal FDDI LAN as documented in Appendix B.
This is the information you need for the CMS-SETUP run:
• The 2200 ODB-defined device names of the FDDI controller's input and output devices.
These usually default to HLVI01 and HLVI02, but they may be different if the site uses
local naming conventions. The site may also have extra names for additional partitions
or hosts. Default names exist for up to four hosts or partitions, and the utility allows
you to change any of the defaults to match the actual ODB.
• Whether the external Ethernet LAN contains a gateway and, if so, the gateway's IP
address.
• The IP address of the 2200 on the external LAN.
• The 2200 ODB-defined device names of the Ethernet controller's input and output
devices. These may be either an HLC or a CSBUS Ethernet channel adapter.
A Minimum CMS 1100 Configuration
A minimum CMS 1100 configuration includes definitions for both the internal FDDI LAN
and an external Ethernet LAN. For each instance of an OS 2200 operating environment,
sites must configure CMS 1100 to define
• Up to four FDDI LAN connections for each possible Intel node. All four can be
defined, even if there are fewer Intel nodes. Connections beyond the first available are
treated as resilient connections by CMS 1100 and are not used.
• FDDI LAN IP addresses for the OS 2200 nodes and system consoles.
• At least one TCP/IP path to each OS 2200 node, so that Integration Expert can be used
following hardware RFU to modify existing CMS 1100 configurations.
