MPE/V to MPE/iX Migration
File Conversion Guidelines
Step 4. The system will then prompt for the name of the configuration file to be converted by displaying the message:
Fileset to be scanned?
You can then choose to end the conversion program by pressing the [RETURN] key, or you can enter one of the following filesets:
filename [.groupname [.acctname]]
@[.groupname [.acctname]] @.@ [.acctname]
@.@.@
NMMGRVER searches for files of type nconf in the specified fileset. For each file found, it asks:
OK to convert filename.groupname.acctname?
where filename.groupname.acctname is the name of a configuration file. Enter Y for yes, or enter either N or [RETURN] for no.
Step 5. NMMGRVER checks the configuration file to determine whether it is an MPE/V or an MPE/iX configuration file. If it is an MPE/iX file the conversion proceeds without further user input. If the file is an MPE/V file, however, NMMGRVER prompts you for the type of MPE/V file you are converting, as follows:
What is the type of this file?
1)MPE V NSCONF
2)MPE V NMCONFIG
3)skip this file
Enter a value between 1 and 3.
Enter the appropriate value.
Step 6. After each file is converted NMMGRVER will display the following message:
FILE CONVERTED
Continue to enter either Y, N, or [RETURN] until you have converted all files.
In the conversion process, NMMGRVER will merge the information from each NSCONF file accepted for conversion with NMCONFIG.PUB.SYS, and create new (converted) NSCONF files. If you have converted more than one NSCONF file, you will need to choose the file that corresponds to the network configuration you want, and rename it as the new NMCONFIG.PUB.SYS. Choose the NSCONF file that corresponds to the network configuration you want to use as your NS 3000/iX configuration.
