Configuration management
ts_config
NOTE For shells that are run from the teststation desktop, the DISPLAY
variable is set (at the shell start-up) to the local teststation display.
ts_config operation
The ts_config utility displays an active list of nodes that are powered
up and connected to the teststation diagnostic LAN. The operator selects
a node and configures the selected node. A sample display is shown
below.
Figure 5 ts_config sample display
The window has two main parts: the drop-down menu bar and the
display panel. The display panel contains a list of nodes and their status.
To select a node, click with the left-mouse button the line containing the
desired node entry in the list. When a node is selected, information about
that node is shown at the bottom of the ts_config window. If an action
needs to be performed to configure the node, specific instructions are
included.
ts_config automatically updates the display when it detects either a
change in the configuration status of any node or a new node. However,
the automatic update is disabled while the user has a node selected.
After the node is selected, the display is not updated until the user
selects an action or refreshes the node list. The upper right corner of the
ts_config window indicates whether a node has been selected.
