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.

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.

ftam_ddn_lookup_ path

Chapter 2 37

This parameter controls the mapping between aliases and Directory Distinguished Names (DDNs). It consists of a series of one or more “templates”. A template can be combined with an alias to produce a DDN, and an alias can be extracted from a DDN given a template.

When you specify an alias for a desired FTAM responder, the alias is combined with each template, in order, until a DDN is created that matches a DDN in the remote_app ﬁle. The P_addr associated with this DDN is used to establish the connection.

Conﬁguring HP FTAM/9000

Additional Conﬁguration Parameters

When you specify the alias for a desired FTAM responder through osiadmin, the alias is combined with the ﬁrst template in the ftam_ddn_lookup_path to create the value of ae_remote_aet or ftam_resp_aet.

HP recommends that you use the default value. If you change it, HP recommends that the value of the ftam_resp_aet and ae_remote_aet always follow the form of the ﬁrst template in ftam_ddn_lookup_path. HP also recommends using only one template at this time.

FTAM Parameters: ftam_conf

The parameters in this ﬁle generally do not need to be set or changed for normal FTAM operations. They are required when interoperating with machines which require these optional parameters to be speciﬁed in a way that is different from the default behavior of HP’s FTAM.

The environment variable AEQ_SENDING is supported to determine if the AE qualiﬁers (AEQ) will or will not be encoded and sent in the AARQ and AARE PDUs. This environment variable can have three values: “no”, “yes”, and “ﬁle”. If it is set to “no,” then the FTAM applications will not encode and send the AEQ in the calling, called, or responding AE titles. These AE titles are speciﬁed in the local_app and remote_app ﬁles. If it is set to “yes,” the AEQ will always be encoded and sent. If it is set to “ﬁle,” the values deﬁned in the ftam_conf ﬁle are used. If it is set to a value other than “no,” “yes,” or “ﬁle,” a default, the values deﬁned in the ftam_conf ﬁle, is used.

The following group of parameters are used by the FTAM applications running on the local node. These parameters are located in the ftam_conf ﬁle. These are optional parameters. If these are not set or if the ftam_conf ﬁle does not exist, FTAM applications still run using default values.

To verify HP FTAM/9000 operation

In this test, you will use the FTAM interactive interface to transfer a ﬁle on the local system. The “remote” application that is referred to below is the FTAM Responder.

1. At the system prompt, enter /opt/ftam/bin/ftam.

2. At the ftam> prompt, enter open <remote_node>. <remote_node> is the remote application's alias from the FTAM

Responder worksheet in chapter 2. You will be prompted for a user name.

3. Enter your login on the remote node. The default is your local user name. You will be prompted for a

password.

4. Enter the password for the given login on the remote.

5. Enter put /opt/ots/lbin/bin2conf /tmp/bin2conf.

6. Enter get /tmp/bin2conf /tmp/bin2conf.

7. Enter quit.

8. At the root prompt (#), enter cmp /opt/ots/lbin/bin2conf

/tmp/bin2conf

If cmp returns without printing anything, the ﬁles match and you have veriﬁed FTAM.

If the veriﬁcation test failed, refer to the “Performing Remote Interoperability Procedures” chapter in the OSI Troubleshooting Guide. Follow the instructions in the “FTAM” section of that chapter.
