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.
