Configuring HP DCE Cells

 

This chapter tells how to choose a DCE cell configuration tool and how to

 

use the tools to configure, destroy (unconfigure), start, and stop cells.

 

Two tools are discussed, the DCE Configuration Manager, DCM, and the

 

dce_config script.

 

This chapter also discusses how to install DCE login utilities, how to set

 

up intercell communication with DCE GDA, and how to configure

 

MC/ServiceGuard.

 

To configure HP DCE/9000 software, you must have previously installed

 

HP DCE. See Chapter 3, “Before Installing HP DCE/9000 Version 1.7”

 

for planning information; see Chapter 4, “Installing HP DCE 1.7” for

 

installation information.

 

If you are configuring DCE on systems running NCS-based software

NOTE

 

(such as NetLS, OmniBack, HP MPower, and Shared Print/UX), first

 

read “Note for Users of NCS-based Software” in this chapter.
