IBM RS/6000 - Manual (Page 196)

In order to have a SPOT with all the software we want to have on the Client
(including the CDE package), we need to install the filesets listed above. This can
be done with the
cust operation on the SPOT resource. This operation can be
performed using the following SMIT fastpath:
smitty nim_res_op
Then select the SPOT resource object (spotNIM in our case) and the cust
operation. Enter the fileset names listed above.
Customize a SPOT
Type or select values in entry fields.
Press Enter AFTER making all desired changes.
[Entry Fields]

VERIFY install and check file sizes? no +
F1=Help F2=Refresh F3=Cancel F4=List
F5=Reset F6=Command F7=Edit F8=Image
F9=Shell F1 =Exit Enter=Do
If the operation was successful, you will be able to install the X11.Dt (Common
Desktop Environment) filesets into the SPOT. To do this, you will have to run a
new
cust operation on the SPOT, but this time you will select lpp_source as the
Source of Install Images, and enter X11.Dt in the Fileset Names field.
9.2.7 Allocating Resources for the Stand-Alone Installation
Before initiating the NIM Client installation, you have to allocate the resources for
the specific Client. Once resources have been defined and allocated to a Client,
you can use NIM to start the bos_inst operation for the Client. At a minimum, you
must allocate a SPOT resource and an lpp_source resource.
To allocate resources to the NIM Client, proceed as follows:
1. Enter the following fastpath command:
smitty nim_alloc
2. Select your Client from the list of defined machines (in our case, standalone1).
3. When the list of available resources for the Client is displayed, select one or
more of the resources by using the F7 key (in our example, spotNIM and
imagesNIM).
