Services file

To configure the services file:

1. Edit the services file on each system.

2. Add a udp service entry for each RM instance that runs on the host and

each RM instance referenced in the configuration file. The service
number selected must be unique to the services file and in the range
1024 to 65535.

Example

horcm0

11000/udp

#RaidManager instance 0

horcm1

11001/udp

#RaidManager instance 1

To configure the services file in MPE/iX:

1. Add a service entry for each RM instance in the SERVICES.NET.SYS

file.

Example

horcm0

6100g

#RaidManager instance 0

horcm1

6100g

#RaidManager instance 1

Hosts file

Each host running an RM instance should be entered in the hosts file (for
example, /etc/hosts). This lets you refer to any remote host by either its
name or IP address.

If a DNS (domain name server) manages host name resolution on your
network, no hosts file editing is required.
