TM-2000/MTM-2000 Software Installation Configuration Options
When the option to install the software is selected, the computer prompts for different pieces of information:
Is the computer to be part of an active/standby configuration? There are three choices:
Stand-alone operation: This option sets the computer name to tm_solo; the IP address to
10.201.202.203; and no standby computer.
Active/standby operation
(Active by default):
This sets the computer name to tm1; the IP address to 10.201.202.204;
and the active/standby computer to tm2/ 10.201.202.205.
Active/standby
(Standby by default):
This sets the computer name to tm2; the IP address to 10.201.202.205;
and the active/standby computer to tm1/10.201.202.204
In addition the following parameters are set by default:
Domain or Workgroup
Name:
WORKGROUP This is significant if you want to be able to access the
TM-2000’s hard disk from a Windows® machine.
Network Number: 10.0.0.0. This value may need to change if the IP address is set to
something other than 10.x.x.x.
Subnet Mask: 255.0.0.0. This value may need to change if the network number is
changed.
Broadcast Address: 10.255.255.255. This value may need to change if the network number is

When installing the software, it attempts to determine the hard disk drive size and partition information. You
have a two choices:
•
The user has control on how the hard disk is partitioned.
•
The software will generate the partitions.
If the default partitioning is chosen, 2 partitions will be generated: one at 5MB (containing
essential boot files) and one at 250MB
Updating the TM-2000/MTM-2000 Software
In order to update the TM-2000/MTM-2000, the following files are required:
update_tm.sh
one or more update files, typically with a name such as to_v830.tgz
These must be copied to a DOS-formatted floppy disk.
To perform an update, do the following:
1. Log on to the console as the user root. (A password may have been set for this user when the
software was initially installed.)
A line or two of information displays followed by a prompt, similar to
root@tm1 ~ # .
2. Shut down the TM-2000/MTM-2000 by running /tm/stop_tm all .
Several lines of output will appear followed by another prompt.
3. Put the floppy disk containing update_tm.sh and the first update file in the disk drive.
4. Enter the command
sh /tm/new_ver.sh
This will copy the files to the hard drive. If multiple floppy disks are required, the PC will prompt you to
change the disks..
5. When the update is complete, remove the disk, and reboot the computer.
