Configuring HP DCE Cells
Configuring Cells Using dce_config
This will initiate the propagation of a consistent copy of the changed root directory information to all the CDS servers, and will prevent problems which might arise from use of inconsistent information before this propagation. The use of several CDS servers may increase the time required to complete the propagation of this information.
Configuring Client Systems: Security, CDS, and DTS
Before configuring clients, first configure your server systems. Then use this procedure to configure client systems.
You must configure a CDS client on any Security server system that is not running a CDS server. To configure a client system, you need to know the name of the systems(s) running the Security server and the initial CDS server for the cell.
If you are using DTS as your time synchronization mechanism, you must configure a DTS clerk (client) on any system that is not running a DTS server.
You must have the following information to configure a client:
•The host name of any security server in the cell
•The cell administrator’s principal name and password
•The host name of a CDS server in the cell
1.Start dce_config on the system that you want to configure with DCE client(s).
2.Enter the DCE Configuration Menu:
DCE Main Menu
selection: 1 (CONFIGURE)
3. Run the client configuration routine:
DCE Configuration Menu
selection: 3 (DCE Client)
4.dce_config asks if you want to remove all remnants of previous DCE configurations. If you are configuring this system for the first time or have previously run Remove, answer n. Otherwise, answer y.
