Installation

Rebooting and Reconﬁguring

Once you have installed all peripherals, you are ready to reboot and reconﬁgure the

system.

To reboot the system follow the procedures already given for powering up and booting the

OS.

Modifying the MPE/iX Conﬁguration

The MPE/iX operating system expects a certain hardware conﬁguration (I/O cards,

peripherals, etc. in certain slots). If you have installed I/O cards and peripherals that do

not match this default conﬁguration, you must modify the OS conﬁguration.

Appendix A (MPE/iX Conﬁguration and SYSGEN) in this manual contains information on

the default conﬁguration for the 99x. It also contains a procedure for using SYSGEN to

modify the OS conﬁguration. Some 99x Systems require that you modify the conﬁguration

for the remote console to function. This procedure is described in Appendix A.

NOTE

Hardware conﬁguration is not an issue with the Model T-Class, since

HP-UX supports auto-conﬁguration. HP-UX conﬁgures itself to the

hardware conﬁguration it sees at boot-up.

Conﬁguring The Network

After the operating system is running, you can conﬁgure the network. Consult the

appropriate networking manuals for the operating system. For example on MPE/iX

systems, see the HP 3000/iX Network Planning and Conﬁguration Guide (PN

36922-61023). For systems with OpenView Consoles, see also the OpenView Console

Manager's Guide (PN B3118-90002) that accompanies the OpenView Console.

NOTE

On 990DX, 991DX, 992DX, 995DX Systems, and on 996 and 997

Systems that have been ordered with an OpenView Console, the

network must be properly conﬁgured for the advanced features on the

OpenView Console to be functional.

NOTE

Do not run the DTC Manager program on the same PC as OpenView;

this conﬁguration is not supported and may not work.

Conﬁguring the OS for the PowerTrust UPS

This section contains instructions for conﬁguring HP-UX and MPE/iX so they can "talk"

with the PowerTrust UPS.
