- 2.2 _N_F_S__S_u_b_s_y_s_t_e_m__D_i_s_k__U_s_e
-
- This section lists the NFS option subsystems and their
- sizes. Those subsystems marked ``default'' are selected for
- installation in the distribution software. If you are
- installing NFS software for the first time, these subsystems
-

-
-
-
- are installed if you use the ``go'' menu item from _i_n_s_t. To
- select a different set of subsystems for installation, use
- _i_n_s_t's ``install,'' ``remove,'' ``keep,'' and ``step''
- commands to customize the selection list. Then, use the
- ``go'' menu item to install the selected subsystems.
-
- Note: The listed subsystem sizes are approximate. Refer to
- the _I_R_I_S _S_o_f_t_w_a_r_e _I_n_s_t_a_l_l_a_t_i_o_n _G_u_i_d_e for information
- on finding exact sizes.

- 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 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 and _n_f_s._s_w._d_s_k_l_e_s_s__s_e_r_v_e_r subsystems.
-
- NFS file and record locking support is now contained in
- _n_f_s._s_w._n_f_s. The network lock manager now supports versions
- 1, 3 and 4 of NLM protocol.
-
- 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 6.2 (or higher) to support
- IRIX 6.2 clients. Servers running IRIX 6.2 can support IRIX
- 5.X clients, but cannot support IRIX 4.0.x clients.
-
-
- 2.6 _I_n_s_t_a_l_l_i_n_g__G_a_l_i_l_e_o__B_o_a_r_d_s
-
- A Galileo board functions as a separate hardware option in a
- client workstation rather than as an integral component of
- the workstation's graphics subsystem. For this reason, you
- do not need to set an architectural variable for clients
- containing a Galileo board.
-
- 2.7 _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 _N_F_S
- _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
- directory is in the ``on'' state. Use the _c_h_k_c_o_n_f_i_g(1M)
- command to turn a flag on or off.
