superdaemon (/etc/inetd.conf and /etc/services) to initiate the multinoded.

The sections may be either a simple section or a valued section. A simple substanza is a single name/Dot Notation IP Address to be used for both “Control” connection and “Data” connection. The valued substanza is used to specify the name/Dot Notation IP Address for the “Control” connection (specifier) and the name/Dot Notation IP Address for the “Data” connection (value.)

Multinode Table Stanza Rules:

SubStanza hostnames (local hosts) may contain one or more hostnames separated by white spaces (subject to the HPSS.conf line character limit.)

Section hostnames (remote hosts) [and/or values] may be specified as either string-based hostnames or Dot Notation IP Addresses. Only one entry per line.

Multinode Table Example:

#Options read by the Multinode Daemon Multinode Table = {

# Diagnostic Delay

;Sleep for Debugger = 15

# Hostname of the Client

water water.clearlake.ibm.com =

#Name of the system running the PFTP Server pftp_server pftp_server.clearlake.ibm.com = {

#Specification of the Multinode Host

#If the Data Node is a different interface than the interface

#specified by the Control Node; then enter the Data Node

#Interface after the "=" otherwise the Control and Data

#are the same.

#Control and/or Data may be dot notation OR string hostnames.

Water = 134.253.14.227

}

}

Default = { Default = {

#If the Data Node is different than the Control Node

#Enter the Data Node after the "=" otherwise the

#Control and Data are the same.

#Control and/or Data may be dot notation OR string hostnames. larry = sneezy

}

}

D.4. Network Option Stanza

The Network Options are in the Network Options = { … } stanza of the HPSS.conf file.

The Network Options stanza allows different options to be specified based on: Source IP address

[Local Interface Name(s) ] AND Destination IP Address(es). When the Parallel FTP Client, Client API, or Mover establish connections, they will search the contents of this file for entries matching Source/Destination IP addresses and use the options specified in the matching entry.

The configuration file entries contain values/flags to be used for applying assorted socket and network options including: whether to enable/disable TCP Delay (TcpNoDelay), the socket send sizes (SendSpace) and/or socket receive sizes (RecvSpace), the desired write buffer size (WriteSize), and RFC1323 support (“Large” Window.)

Which configuration entry to use is determined based on the Local Interface Name and the
