OS/2 Warp Server Remote Boot Service Installation Guide

Install the OS/2 RIPL Server
----------------------------
1. Install the Remoteboot Service on the OS/2 Server

    Insert "OS/2 Warp Server V4.0 Advanced" CD in the CD-Drive.
    Choose LAN Services, OS/2 LAN Services installation/Configuration,
    Advanced(Tailored), install or configure this workstation, Domain
        Controller, LAPS Configuration -> select OK,  install or remove
    a component, select "DOS Remote IPL Service" and install.
    
Note:
    LAN adapter and protocol support must have IBM IEEE 802.2, NetBIOS.


2. Install IBM PC DOS files for Remoteboot workstation.

    Config DOS Remote IPL Service, Duplicate DOS? -> YES,  configure
    LAN adapter, NetBIOS Resource -> OK, insert IBM PC DOS 6.3 and
    duplicate the DOS image.  Shutdown/Restart your system.


3. Create Remoteboot configuration for new adapter.

3.1 Copy the NDIS2 DOS driver for the PRO120(B) PCI Fast Ethernet Adapter,
    MXNICF.DOS, to the directory, \IBMLAN\RPL\DOS.

3.2 Modify the RPL.MAP in the \IBMLAN\RPL by removing the mark ";" of
    dosndet.cnf or dosbbet.cnf.
    In OS/2 Screen, type "GETRPL" to update the RPL.MAP.

3.3 Create the DOS image file -
    Choose 'LAN Services', 'LAN Server Management', 'Local Workstation',
    'DOS image definition', 'select STD3HBAS', and 'Selected Item ->in the
    create image to server menu'. Pull down the 'Destination Server
    column' on the right corner, and click the <OK> botton.

3.4 Return to Local Workstation menu. Select RIPL Requester, RIPL
    Requester Template. Select to Create another RIPL Requester template,
    Identity: Enable DOS requester, fill MachineID and Network Adapter
              address.
        Note: The network adapter address should be the 6-byte MAC ID
              of the remote booting client station.
    Parameters: Server record id -> pull down to select R_DET_NDIS for
                                    dosndet or R_DET for dosbbet.cnf.
                Remote IPL boot driver: Z (use for bootup drive)
    After setting finished, choose "Create" to create the new template.

3.5 Modify \IBMLAN\RPL\DOSNDET.CNF(DOSBBET.CNF) by changing
    DRV DOS\MACETH.DOS
           to
    DRV DOS\MXNICF.DOS

Sample for DOSNDET.CNF:
; DOS Boot Block Configuration (IBM PS/2 Adapters for Ethernet)
; NDIS LAN Support Program Drivers
BASE 7C0H
RPL DOS\RPLBOOT.SYS
LDR DOS\RPLLOADR.COM ~
DAT DOS\ETHERNET\PROTOCOL.INI
DAT E:\IBMLAN\DOSLAN\LSP\DXM.MSG
EXE E:\IBMLAN\DOSLAN\LSP\NETBIND.COM ~ ~ ~
;**NETBIOS and IEEE 802.2*******************************************
;DRV E:\IBMLAN\DOSLAN\LSP\DXMT0MOD.SYS PBA=0~S=12~ST=12~C=14~O=N ~ ~
;DRV E:\IBMLAN\DOSLAN\LSP\DXME0MOD.SYS ~ 10 ~
;**NETBIOS and IEEE 802.2*******************************************
;

DRV E:\IBMLAN\DOSLAN\LSP\DXMJ0MOD.SYS ~ 17 ~

DRV E:\IBMLAN\DOSLAN\LSP\DXMA0MOD.SYS 001 ~ ~
DRV DOS\MXNICF.DOS ~ ~ ~
DRV E:\IBMLAN\DOSLAN\LSP\PROTMAN.DOS /I: ~ ~


3.6 Modify IBMLAN\RPL\DOS\PROTOCOL.INI by changing
[MACETH_MOD]
        DriverName = MACETH$ 
              to
        DriverName = MXNICF$

Sample for PROTOCOL.INI:
[PROTMAN_MOD]
        DriverName = PROTMAN$
[DXMJ0_MOD]
        DriverName = NETBEUI$
        Bindings = MACETH_MOD
[DXME0_MOD]
        DriverName = DXME0$
        Bindings = MACETH_MOD
[MACETH_MOD]
        DriverName = MXNICF$
;=== unmark the followings ===
;        IRQ = 3
;        RAMADDRESS = 0Xc800
;        IOBASE = 0X200
;        RECEIVEBUFFERS = 16
;        RECEIVECHAINS = 16
;        MAXREQUESTS = 10
;        MAXTRANSMITS = 10
;        RECEIVEBUFSIZE = 256


4. In OS/2 Screen, type "NET START RPL" Start the Remoteboot service. 

5. If you want to start the remote boot automaticallly after OS/2
   server boot up, please modify \IBMLAN\IBMLAN.INI by adding
   SRVSERVICES=REMOTEBOOT.
