Main Test Setup Components 6-2 Device Directory
6-2 Device Directory
The system stores device- specific set up data in device directories.
Each device that you configure on the SOC Series has its own device
directory.
Each time you use the system, a file called .device_inuse is stored in
your HP-UX home directory. This file remembers which device you
were using last, and sets a path to its device directory. When your
current session is ended, the device is saved with the name "last used
device".
When you start the system software, the system looks for the
.device_inuse file. If it is not in your home directory, or if the device
directory is either missing or corrupt, the system displays the change
device dialog box, where you can create a new device, or enter or edit
an existing one.
