Appendix B. Installation Diskettes for Enhanced Integration for NetWare NLMs
* figure neicube not displayed.
As discussed in Chapter 15. "Configuring Enhanced Integration for NetWare", Enhanced Integration for NetWare provides an installation diskette with NLMs that must be installed on each server in the NDS tree and on each NetWare 3.12 server that you will manage from AS/400. 

 

 

At some point, it is possible that IBM might update the NLMs with fixes. If this happens, IBM will post updates to the NLMs on our Internet Web site and will update the installation diskette image in a PTF. 

You could obtain the NLM fixes by: 

  • Downloading them from our Internet web site. 
  • http://www.as400.ibm.com/products/software/netware/as4nwdl.htm
  • Applying the AS/400 PTF with the updated installation diskette image. 

  •  

     

    When you apply the PTF, the updated installation diskette image is placed in the QDLS directory in the Integrated File System 

    If you are using Client Access, you can download the diskette image from QDLS and rebuild the installation diskette. 

    Once you have applied any PTFs to AS/400 that contain updates to the diskette images, you can create an updated installation diskette, as described in "Creating Installation Diskettes"

If you need to load the updated NLM on multiple servers (Integrated PC Servers or PC-based servers), you can use the updated installation diskette or NLM fixes to distribute the NLM to multiple servers. 

Creating Installation Diskettes

You can create the Enhanced Integration for NetWare NLM installation diskettes using several different methods. Two methods follow, one using Client Access, and one using Enhanced Integration for NetWare already installed on a server. To use Enhanced Integration for NetWare create the diskettes, you must have first installed Enhanced Integration for NetWare using the diskettes that are shipped with the product. 

* figure task not displayed.
To create installation diskettes: 
Use either "Method 1: Using Client Access" or "Method 2: Using the Enhanced Integration for NetWare NLM"

Method 1: Using Client Access

  1. From a DOS prompt on a PC that is running Client Access, change to the QFPNTWE folder. 

  2.  

     

    For Client Access for DOS or DOS Extended: 

    CD I:\QFPNTWE
    For Client Access for Windows3.1 or for Windows 95: 
    CD I:\QDLS\QFPNTWE
  3. Run the QFPNLMDK.BAT file to create the desired diskette. 

  4.  

     

    There are 3 parameters: 

    • Source Drive Letter 
    • Target Drive Letter 
    • NLM version to create. 
    QFPNLMDK I A 3      where I is the source drive
                        where A is the target drive
                        where 3 is to create 3.12 diskettes
    
    QFPNLMDK I A 4      where 4 is to create 4.10 diskettes
    
    QFPNLMDK I A 411    where 411 is to create 4.11 diskettes
    
    CD I:\QFPNTWE         - for Client Access for DOS or DOS Extended
    -or-
    CD I:\QDLS\QFPNTWE    - for Client Access for Windows
  5. Insert a diskette into your target drive (A:) when prompted and press ENTER. 

  6.  

     

    The diskette is formatted. 

  7. Answer N to the questions about formatting another. 

  8.  

     

    Files are copied to the target drive and you receive a success message when completed. 

Method 2: Using the Enhanced Integration for NetWare NLM
* figure note not displayed.
This method requires that the Enhanced Integration for NetWare NLM is already installed on at least one NetWare server. 
  1. Copy the contents of the QFPNTWE folder to a NetWare server that is running the Enhanced Integration for NetWare NLM. 

  2.  

     

    SERV in the examples is the name of the NetWare server. 

    1. Use the AS/400 MKDIR command to create the required directories on a NetWare server. 
    2. MKDIR DIR('/QNETWARE/SERV.SVR/SYS/QFPNTWE') 
            CRTOBJAUD(*NONE)
      MKDIR DIR('/QNETWARE/SERV.SVR/SYS/QFPNTWE/NLS) 
            CRTOBJAUD(*NONE)
      MKDIR DIR('/QNETWARE/SERV.SVR/SYS/QFPNTWE/NLS/0) 
            CRTOBJAUD(*NONE)
      MKDIR DIR('/QNETWARE/SERV.SVR/SYS/QFPNTWE/NLS/1) 
            CRTOBJAUD(*NONE)
      Continue through directory /QNETWARE/SERV.SVR/SYS/QFPNTWE/NLS/21
    3. Copy the contents of the directories from QFPNTWE to the NetWare server. 
    4. CPY OBJ('/QDLS/QFPNTWE/*')
          TODIR('/QNETWARE/SERV.SVR/SYS/QFPNTWE')
      CPY OBJ('/QDLS/QFPNTWE/NLS/0/*')
          TODIR('/QNETWARE/SERV.SVR/SYS/QFPNTWE/NLS/0')
      Continue through directory /QDLS/QFPNTWE/NLS/21/
  3. From a NetWare client PC, map a drive to the servers SYS volume. 
  4. MAP I:=SERV\SYS:
  5. From a DOS prompt change to the QFPNTWE directory on the NetWare server. 
  6. CD I:\QFPNTWE
  7. Follow steps 2 through 5 above under Method 1.
