The following is the syntax for the command which specifies a name for the software load
image file:
DEFINE CHASSIS SLOT [list ] LOAD [record |ALL] SOFTWARE filename
The [record ] variable specifies the primary, secondary, or tertiary initialization record.
The filename variable specifies the software load image filename. The following is an
example of a command which specifies the software load image filename for the primary
initialization record of the terminal server in slot 2:
Xyplex>> define chassis slot 2 load primary software XPCSRV20
Using the BOOTP and RARP Protocols
The Bootstrap Protocol (BOOTP) and the Reverse Address Resolution Protocol (RARP)
look for the software load image and parameter file names on a UNIX host. The module
first tries BOOTP, then RARP. You do not need to supply any additional information in
the initialization records for the module to use these protocols successfully, if the BOOTP
and RARP hosts are configured with the correct information. The Software Installation
Guide for UNIX Hosts describes BOOTP and RARP in detail.
Using the DTFTP Protocol
The Directed Trivial File Transfer Protocol (DTFTP) searches for a specific software load
image file on a UNIX host. You supply the name of the software load image file, the
Internet address of the load host, and the Internet address of the module. If the load host
exists on a remote branch of the network, you must also provide the Internet address of a
gateway host. Default values do not exist for this information. The module does not use
DTFTP to obtain a parameter file or to send information to a dump server. Unless you use
DTFTP, you do not have to specify Internet parameters in the initialization record.
The following commands provide Internet information for loading with DTFTP:
Internet Load Address:
DEFINE [SERVER] CHASSIS SLOT [list] LOAD [record|ALL] INTERNET ADDRESS
