Preface

Purpose

This manual contains installation, conﬁguration, and veriﬁcation steps for HP FTAM/9000, Hewlett-Packard's File Transfer, Access, and Management product which enables you to manipulate local and remote data ﬁles.

• Installation is the process of copying the software from the product tape (magnetic or cartridge) to your system's disk. The installation steps are in chapter 1, “Installing HP FTAM/9000.”

• Conﬁguration is the process of customizing the product to reﬂect the correct addresses and parameters that are required for your system. The conﬁguration information is in chapter 2, “Conﬁguring HP FTAM/9000.”

• Veriﬁcation is the process of verifying that all of the conﬁguration information has been entered successfully. The veriﬁcation information is in chapter 3, “Verifying HP FTAM/9000.”

Audience

You should be the person who is responsible for installing product software, conﬁguring local and remote nodes, and verifying conﬁgurations. You need to be able to issue node names, addresses, and parameters that are unique to your network, or be able to obtain that information.

Related Tasks

Before starting the tasks in this manual, you need to have installed, conﬁgured, and veriﬁed the other parts of your “OSI stack” (OTS/9000 and the LAN/9000 link, the X.25/9000 link, and/or the FDDI/9000 link, as applicable). “The HP OSI Series” section in the OSI Troubleshooting Guide speciﬁes what manuals you need to perform these tasks.

After you have completed the tasks in this manual, you will need to perform interoperability testing as described in the OSI T roubleshooting Guide. Troubleshooting information is also included in that manual.

1 Installing HP FTAM/9000

Installing HP FTAM/9000

Installation Overview

Before installing HP FTAM/9000, you need to have installed the other parts of your “OSI stack” (OTS/9000 and the LAN/9000 link, the X.25/9000 link, and/or the FDDI/9000 link, as applicable).

Each of the products in the OSI stack requires a speciﬁc amount of root partition space. When the amounts of root partition space for the different products you have installed are added together, the total must not exceed the total space on your system. Verify that there is sufﬁcient remaining space in the root partition of your HP 9000 computer before installing HP FTAM/9000. The root partition may need to be increased to accommodate all of the OSI stack products together. If you attempt the installation and do not have sufﬁcient space, the update program will let you know how much space you need.

Complete the steps on the following pages to install HP FTAM/9000. The screens and messages that you see may be different from those shown, depending upon the type of computer that you are using.

Complete all installation steps before beginning the conﬁguration steps in chapter 2.

Before You Begin the Installation

Your HP-UX software includes various utilities that allow you to manipulate the menus and form screens. This section describes those utilities and also the HELP function.

Menus

You can select items within a screen menu in any of the following three ways:

• By entering the ﬁrst letter of the item (if the ﬁrst letter is unique).

For example , if you want to select the Country parameter on a screen, you would type the letter c.

• By using the arrow keys to highlight the item and then pressing

Return or SELECT ITEM f4. (This is called “selecting” the item.)

• By using Tab to scroll down or Shift-Tab to scroll up, and then pressing

Return or SELECT ITEM f4.

12 Chapter 1

Installing HP FTAM/9000

Installation Overview

The menu labels include indicators. An arrow indicator (->) indicates a branch to another menu. A series of dots (...) indicates that there is an associated form for the menu item.

On the form screens, you will see ﬁelds that display default parameters that you can modify by entering new parameters. Some of these ﬁelds may scroll vertically, indicated by a row of down arrows (V) or a row of up arrows (ˆ). The ﬁelds may also scroll horizontally, which is indicated by a greater-than symbol (>) or a less-than symbol (<). The scroll function is executed with the arrow keys.

Function Keys

The f1 through f8 keys are multiple-function keys that can be used for a variety of functions depending on the program and menu combination. The three main function keys are the following:

• f8, which is used to exit a screen or to move back through previous menus

• f4, which is used to select items and perform tasks

• f1, which is used to access the HELP function

The HELP Function

The HELP function, which you access by pressing f1, provides information about menu items and ﬁelds. It describes the parameters that you need to add to the conﬁguration menus and indicates possible responses that you can use in the ﬁelds of a form screen.

Installing HP FTAM/9000

To Install HP FTAM/9000

The swinstall Procedure

The HP-UX swinstall procedure installs the HP FTAM/9000 software on the disk. Follow the swinstall procedure to install HP FTAM/9000:

1. At the system prompt, log onto the system by typing root.

2. Run swinstall. Please refer to the swinstall manual for more information on swinstall. Refer to chapter 6 in the HP FTAM/9000 Reference Manual for a list of the ﬁlesets installed.

3. Run swverify to conﬁrm that the HP FTAM/9000 software was installed correctly.

Next you will conﬁgure HP FTAM/9000 using the information and steps in chapter 2.

Conﬁguring HP FTAM/9000

Conﬁguration Overview

This chapter contains the following three sections:

• Conﬁguration Worksheets — This section provides the ﬁve conﬁguration worksheets you will ﬁll out before beginning the conﬁguration process.

• Conﬁguration Parameters — This section describes each of the conﬁguration parameters and explains which ones are required or optional and which are default parameters.

• HP FTAM/9000 Conﬁguration — This section provides the speciﬁc conﬁguration steps and shows the conﬁguration screens.

Each of the three chapter sections is further divided into three subsections related to either the FTAM Initiator, FTAM Responder, or FTAM Remote Responder. So, for example, if you are conﬁguring the FTAM Initiator, the worksheet is under the “FTAM Initiator Worksheet” heading, the parameter information is under the “FTAM Initiator Parameters” heading, and the conﬁguration steps are under the “To conﬁgure the FTAM Initiator” heading.

To conﬁgure HP FTAM/9000, you need to copy the conﬁguration worksheets, complete them using the parameter information, and transfer the worksheet information to the FTAM conﬁguration screens. You will also need to provide copies of two of the worksheets to the person who is responsible for conﬁguring the FTAM Remote Responder.

The FTAM conﬁguration is done in three parts: the FTAM Initiator and FTAM Responder, which apply to the local node, and the Remote FTAM Responders (remote FTAM Responder addresses conﬁgured in the local node).

After you complete the conﬁguration, complete the veriﬁcation steps in chapter 3.

16 Chapter 2

Conﬁguring HP FTAM/9000

Conﬁguration Worksheets

There are three HP FTAM/9000 conﬁguration worksheets: the FTAM Initiator worksheet, the FTAM Responder worksheet, and the FTAM Remote Responder worksheet.

The FTAM software that was installed on the local node has default parameters for the FTAM Initiator and FTAM Responder. The FTAM program can function normally with these default parameters. If you choose to change the parameters for local node customization, or to differentiate between multiple installations of FTAM within the same subnetwork system, write the new parameters on the FTAM Initiator and FTAM Responder worksheets.

There are no default parameters for the FTAM Remote Responder.

Conﬁguration Worksheets

FTAM Initiator Worksheet

This worksheet contains the identiﬁcation information supplied to remote nodes when this node initiates an FTAM connection, as well as the number of simultaneous FTAM connections that may be open at one time (using ftam, fcp, and the like).

You do not need to ﬁll in this worksheet if (1) peer FTAM implementations (such as HP FTAM/9000) do not check the authentication information or (2) the default FTAM Initiator parameter values are acceptable. Refer to the “FTAM Initiator Parameters” section in this chapter for the default values.

If you do not need to complete this worksheet, turn to the next worksheet, the FTAM Responder worksheet.

If you choose to change the default FTAM Initiator parameter values, write the changes in the appropriate areas below, noting the restrictions at the beginning of the “FTAM Initiator Parameters” section. Then turn to the next worksheet, the FTAM Responder worksheet.
