4. Specify the destination directory for the SunFDDI/P schemas.

SunNet Manager looks for the schemas in the directory

<basedir>/SUNWconn/snm/agents. The variable <basedir> is set to /opt by

default. If you installed the SunNet Manager agents and libraries on the

FDDI station, or if you used getagents to recover the agents from the

console, then this directory exists.

Enter the base directory under which you installed the SunNet Manager

agents as the destination directory for the SunFDDI/P schemas.

5. Specify the current location of the SunFDDI/P schemas.

This is the base directory under which you installed the SunFDDI/P

software package (SUNWpf) using pkgadd(1M).

The script copies the SunFDDI/P schemas to the destination directory and

modifies the local configuration files for SunNet Manager.

6. Start the SunNet Manager agents for SunFDDI/P by typing:

Note – If you typed nin response to the question “Do you want to start the

SunNet Manager daemons for SunFDDI at boot time?” when you installed the

SunFDDI/P software, you must start the SunNet manager agents for

SunFDDI/P manually each time you reboot your machine. Alternatively,you

can install the start-up script into the /etc/rc2.d directory.

What is the name of the root directory under which the SunNet

Manager is installed? [/opt]: [?]

What is the name of the root directory under which the pf FDDI

software is installed? [/opt]: [?]

#/usr/sbin/pf_snmd

#cd /opt/SUNWconn/SUNWpf/utilities

#cp pf_fddidaemon /etc/rc2.d/S98pf_fddidaemon
