/etc/xinetd.d file. For example, if the encryption key in the Mover’s type specific configuration is
1234567890ABCDEF, then the encryption key file (/var/hpss/etc/ek.mvr1) should contain:
0x12345678 0x90ABCDEF
5.1.3.1.3. /var/hpss/etc Files Required for Remote Mover
The Mover process on the remote machine requires access to the following files in /var/hpss/etc:
• auth.conf
• authz.conf
• env.conf
• ep.conf
• HPSS.conf
• ieee_802_addr
• site.conf
In addition, if the site is using Kererbos authentication, the following file is required:
• hpss.keytab
If the site is using Unix authentication, the following file is required:
• hpss.unix.keytab
If the site is using Unix authentication or authorization with local password files, the following files are
required:
• passwd
• group
The ieee_802_addr file contains the hardware address of the host. It may be created using the /opt/hpss/
config/get_802_addr program. This program requires no arguments. The remaining files should be
copied from the HPSS root subsystem machine.
See the HPSS Installation Guide, Appendix F: /var/hpss files for a description of each of these files.
5.1.3.1.1. System Configuration Parameters on IRIX, Solaris, and Linux
This section describes a number of system configuration parameters which may need to be modified for
the successful operation of the remote Mover.
IRIX
IRIX system parameters which affect the remote Mover can be modified with the systune utility. It is
likely that a system reboot will be required to make these parameters take effect. The following table
defines the parameter names and minimum required values.
