Notes on NAS Appliance Multiple Configuration Files
Using Remote Kick-Start, you can create multiple configuration files on the Kick-Start
diskette. At the top of each configuration form, a Configuration Name field appears. You
can use this field to enter information that helps you identify a particular machine, such as,
rack1-slot2, netserver-1, and so on.
Using the + (plus) and – (minus) buttons next to this field, you can change the three-digit
number that Remote Kick-Start appends to the configuration name. The name of the
configuration file is formed by appending this three-digit number at the end of the
configuration name. Files with the same name but a different three-digit number are called
an ordered set.
The configuration process uses the three-digit number at the end of the filename to
determine which configuration to apply next. Because names of the configuration files are
important to the configuration process, you must not alter the configuration filenames after
they are written to the diskette.
