ClearPath IX Systems Installation and Configuration Guide

Verifying the Interconnects and Achieving Hardware RFU
WARNING
TEMPORARY CMS-SETUP RESTRICTION AND WORKAROUND
If you plan to use Integration Expert (15.3), you must first correct the
output from CMS-SETUP. The configuration that CMS-SETUP produces
supports PING testing and basic communications, but it does not allow
Integration Expert to function.
Example 14–1 contains two ClearPath sentinels that Integration Expert
requires but that CMS-SETUP omits. Each sentinel consists of the
following line:
. CLEARPATH*CLEARPATH*CLEARPATH*CLEARPATH*CLEARPATH*CLEARPATH*CLEARPATH*CLEARPATH
To permit Integration Expert to execute correctly, you must
1. Update the element CMS1100$*CONFIG$.CONFIG to contain the two
ClearPath sentinel lines exactly as shown in Example 14–1. Each line
is exactly 81 characters long, begins with a period and a space, and
contains eight repetitions of the word CLEARPATH separated by
asterisks. You can use a Telnet session on any Windows workstation
attached to the LAN to do the editing.
2. Terminate the CMS 1100 run (if you have started it—see "Starting
CMS") by entering the following keyin:
II CMS TERM
3. Start CMS 1100 again with the following keyin:
ST STARTCMS,1
The need for this workaround will be eliminated with the next ClearPath
release.
Follow the steps below to configure CMS 1100 with a minimum, or basic, configuration,
using the CMS-SETUP run. This configuration lets you use CMS 1100 to install other
products and customize your site (Sections 15 and 16). Later, if you wish, you can enhance
the CMS 1100 configuration to meet the site's full requirements.
1. Start the run using the ST keyin on the 2200 node.
ST CMS-SETUP
The following messages from CMS-SETUP appear:
CMS-SETUP START
n-ENTER HOST1 FDDI LAN INPUT DEVICE NAME
n
2. Press Enter to accept the default, or type a different device name.
You are asked for an FDDI LAN output device name for the same host (Host1):
n-ENTER HOST1 FDDI LAN OUTPUT DEVICE NAME
n
