Chapter 5: mcx System Update
System Configuration Modifications
System Configuration Modifications
File Structure Changes as of Release 5.4
Due to major changes in the system images to achieve unified system upgrades, some modifications of the file
structure have been necessary. This also implies that former configurations have to be transferred in order to
make them work again. The configuration files at the new locations will be created automatically (if not yet
available) with default settings that are commented out and have to be adjusted appropriately.
NTP Configuration
The NTP server configuration in /data/config/ntp-config has been moved to /data/config/sysconfig/time-config.
Additionally, a TIMEZONE parameter can be specified as of Release 5.4. If there is an NTP configuration for your
system, please edit the server settings in the new location.
SNMP Configuration
The SNMP server configuration in /data/config/snmpd.conf has been moved to /data/config/sysconfig/snmpd.conf.
Please transfer your settings to the new location.
Syslog Configuration
The configuration file for the syslog process in /data/config/logfile has been moved
to /data/config/sysconfig/syslog. As of Release 5.4 it is possible to define a syslog server with the configuration
option LOGSERVER_IP=<IP>.
pre_config.tcl, post_config.tcl
The post_config.tcl file will be created with default (commented out) contents if not already existing. All entries
that were formerly specified in pre_config.tcl can now be moved to post_config.tcl. pre_config.tcl will be
discontinued in future releases.
File Structure Changes as of Release 5.6
Service Network Configuration
The system’s service network which defaults to 192.168.110.0/24 will be configured in /data/config/sysconfig/ip-
address as of Release 5.6. If you open the ip-address file in a text editor, you will find a template for the service
network configuration where the comment marker (#) has to be removed in order to enable the configuration. This
is needed only if the default cannot be used for some reason (e.g. in DSN setups). The former configuration in
post_config.tcl (if any) has to be removed and is not evaluated anymore.
