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 100/10 Mbps PCI Bus 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.
