2.4.3 Server Administration Characteristics
A number of server characteristics can assist you in server administration.
IDENTIFICATION
The server identification appears in the SHOW SERVER command, and it can
be useful if you have responsibility for a number of servers. The server passes
the identification to service nodes in its messages. IDENTIFICATION is a
value of 1 to 16 keyboard characters enclosed in quotation marks. There is no
default for IDENTIFICATION.
NAM:I~j
NAME specifies the server name. The name is useful for identifying the server
(it appears in the SHOW SERVER display), and service nodes can use it to
identify reachable servers on the Ethernet. You should make sure that NAME
matches the DECnet node name given the MUXserver 100 when the server
software was installed on a load host. See the system manager of the load
host.
Service node system managers can display the server name using a network
Inanagement command.
The server name is a string of 1 to 16 keyboard characters enclosed in quota-
tion marks. The default name is "LAT-xxxxxxxxxxxx", where "x ... x" is the
Ethernet address of the MUXserver 100.
NUMBER
NUMBER specifies a value from 0 to 32767 which you can use in any way to
identify a MUXserver 100. It appears in the SHOW SERVER display. The de-
fault is O.
CONSOLE
CONSOLE identifies a console terminal. The console displays status messages
for down-line loading, up-line dumping and bugchecks. The console terminal for
the MUXserver 100 is the supervisor port and is shown as Unit 1 in the
SHOW SERVER display.
