-
- This section lists the PC-NFS option subsystems and their
- sizes.
-
- If you are installing this product for the first time, the
- subsystems marked ``default'' are the ones that are
- installed if you use the ``go'' menu item. To install a
- different set of subsystems, use the ``install,''
- ``remove,'' ``keep,'' and ``step'' commands in _i_n_s_t to
- customize the list of subsystems to be installed, then
- select the ``go'' menu item.
-
- Note: The listed subsystem sizes are approximate.

- 2.3 _I_n_s_t_a_l_l_a_t_i_o_n__M_e_t_h_o_d
-
- All of the subsystems for PC-NFS can be installed using
- IRIX. You do not need to use the miniroot.
-
- 2.4 _P_r_e_r_e_q_u_i_s_i_t_e_s
-
- Your workstation must be running at least release IRIX 6.5
- to use PC-NFS release 6.5.
-
- The _n_f_s._s_w._n_f_s and _n_f_s._s_w._n_f_s subsystems are prerequisites
- for running the _n_f_s._s_w._d_s_k_l_e_s_s__c_l_i_e_n_t,
- _n_f_s._s_w._d_s_k_l_e_s_s__s_e_r_v_e_r, and _n_f_s._s_w._d_s_k_l_e_s_s__s_e_r_v_e_r__4_0_5
- subsystems.
-
- 2.5 _C_o_m_p_a_t_i_b_i_l_i_t_y__f_o_r__D_i_s_k_l_e_s_s__S_y_s_t_e_m_s
-
- A server must be running IRIX 6.5 (or higher) to support
- IRIX 6.5 clients. A server running IRIX 6.5 can support IRIX
- 4.0.x clients, but an IRIX 6.5 server cannot support IRIX
- 3.2.x or IRIX 3.3.x clients. At this time, NFS v.3 is not
- supported on diskless clients.
-
- If you plan to maintain IRIX 4.0.x diskless clients on a
- server after the server is upgraded to IRIX 6.5, you must
- modify the pathname to each client's boot file. Use these
- instructions to modify boot files

-
- If you plan to maintain IRIX 4.0.x diskless clients on a
- server after the server is upgraded to IRIX 6.5, you must
- modify the pathname to each client's boot file. Use these
- instructions to modify boot files:
-
- 1. For all workstation models except Indigo R4000's, reset
- the _b_o_o_t_f_i_l_e NVRAM variable. You must reset NVRAM variables
- from the PROM monitor:
-
- >> setenv bootfile bootp()_s_e_r_v_e_r:/var/boot/4.X/_c_l_i_e_n_t/unix
-
- For Indigo R4000 models, reset the _S_y_s_t_e_m_P_a_r_t_i_t_i_o_n and
- _O_S_L_o_a_d_e_r variables:
-
- >> setenv SystemPartition bootp()_s_e_r_v_e_r:/var/boot/4.X/_c_l_i_e_n_t
- >> setenv OSLoader /unix

- 2. Reboot the client to reset its NVRAM variables.
-
- If you want to install new IRIX 4.0.x share or client trees
- on a server after upgrading the server to IRIX 6.5, complete
- these steps:
-
- 1. Install the _n_f_s._s_w._d_s_k_l_e_s_s__s_e_r_v_e_r__4_0_5 subsystem on the
- server.
-
- 2. Use the installation tools in /_v_a_r/_b_o_o_t/_4._X to install
- the share tree, client tree, and swap trees on the server.
- Refer to the _D_i_s_k_l_e_s_s _W_o_r_k_s_t_a_t_i_o_n _A_d_m_i_n_i_s_t_r_a_t_i_o_n _G_u_i_d_e that
- accompanied your version 4.0.x software for instructions
- (document number 007-0855-020).
-
- 3. Set the boot file variables on each client (see the
- previous instructions for setting NVRAM bootfile variables).
-
- 2.6 _C_o_n_f_i_g_u_r_a_t_i_o_n___F_i_l_e_s
-
- This section lists installed files that can be edited to
- contain site-specific changes. Please see the _A_d_m_i_n_i_s_t_r_a_t_i_o_n
- _G_u_i_d_e and the _N_I_S _A_d_m_i_n_i_s_t_r_a_t_i_o_n _G_u_i_d_e for details.
-
- The following configuration files determine if a daemon is
- started during system initialization. A daemon or subsystem
- is enabled if its configuration flag in the /_e_t_c/_c_o_n_f_i_g

- command to turn a flag on or off.
