NAME

mkptnr − create DOMAIN/IX node-specific files for diskless node

USAGE

/etc/mkptnr [ −ppartner_name ] [ −ddiskless_node_id ]

DESCRIPTION

Mkptnr creates the files required for the operation of DOMAIN/IX on a diskless node in the node’s //partner_name/sys/node_data.diskless_node_id directory.  These files are accessed by symbolic links from the /etc directory. 

It creates null etc.mnttab, etc.mtab, and etc.utmp files, if these files do not exist.  It copies the template versions of etc.rc and etc.inetd.conf if these files do not already exist in the directory.  It also copies the template versions of thishost and networks if these files do not already exist. 

OPTIONS

−p partner_name
Copy the files to the node specified by partner_name. If you omit this option, mkptnr writes the files to the the current node, based on the value of the / node entry directory. 

−d diskless_node_id
Use the entered node_id to construct the directory name. If you omit this option, mkptnr uses the value of the NODEID environment variable. 

EXAMPLES

The following example creates the DOMAIN/IX files in the node_data directory for node 8f3d.  It creates the files on the current (or current partner) node.  %  mkptnr -d 8f3d Files will be created and copied in //partner_name_node/sys/node_data.8f3d Creating etc.mnttab, etc.mtab, etc.utmp (if not existant).  Copying etc.rc template.  Copying etc.inetd.conf template.  Copying thishost template.  Copying networks template.  %
