'RETURN' to continue the routine; it takes approximately
25
minutes to complete. When
,etup completes its back-end work, your shell prompt returns. You can then continue your
installation by booting the full
UNIX
system, as described near the end of this chapter.
4.3.10.2. Path 2: Standard Server Configuration
Note that if you follow this path, you are constrained to put / pub on the first disk you
configure.
This subsection provides an example of the ,etup interactive dialogue which is typical for a
standard network server configuration. This path allows you to select the size of your public
partition, and establish the size of a standard paging partition which is allotted to each client.
The remaining disk space is equally divided to make each client's file system subpartition.
In the example, what you might type in is shown in boldface type like this; whatever is sim-
ply displayed on the monitor is shown in Roman type like this.
We invoke the ,etup program by typing the ,etup command. Setup begins by requesting global
information:
*

Sun Microsystems Configuration System
Global Information
1) network disk server
2)

3) standalone with remote tape
Enter the number for your environment:
1
You have a network disk server system; is this correct! (y/n): y
Note that the
,etup
program asks you to verify configuration information after each 'phase' of
configuration is complete. It is extremely difficult to undo system configuration, so be careful
with your responses: 'y' casts things in concrete, and 'n' allows you to start the phase over
again. You can also type 'q' to any prompt to quit the ,etup program and return to the shell -
this allows you to annihilate what you have done and start over, if you have to.
After determining your environment, ,etup gathers information about your disk configuration.
It determines the type of disk controller being used for installation, and asks you for device
information:
4-18
You have booted off ofaXylogics disk controller
Enter the number of disks attached to the Xylogics controller: (1-2): 2
The Xylogics disk controller has 2 disk(s):
xyO
xyl
Is this configuration correct! (y/n): y
