interface (GUI) for installing, uninstalling, or updating other software
programs.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 3.6. Tivoli Management Agent ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
The Tivoli Management Agent (TMA) extends the client/server hierarchy and
enhances the scalability of a Tivoli Management Environment. Tivoli is a
systems management tool for enterprise-wide, heterogeneous networks. The TMA
increases the number of resources that can be managed and, at the same time,
enables those resources to be used more efficiently.
Besides providing full functionality down to the endpoints, the TMA reduces the
physical requirements to manage a system. The TMA is a replacement for the
SystemView agent and supports OS/2 using TCP/IP.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 3.7. Personally Safe 'n' Sound ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Personally Safe 'n' Sound (PSnS) is a powerful backup utility that lets you
safeguard your OS/2 system against loss of data. It allows you to set up a
Backup Strategy for each activity you perform on your machine. The strategy,
once employed, provides protection against all of the likely causes of
data-loss: user errors, hardware malfunctions, malicious damage, and disasters.
For more information about using PSnS, see the OS/2 Warp Server Backup/Restore
User's Guide and the other online books that come with it. Also, additional
information is available on the Internet at

ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4. Preinstallation Planning ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Before you install OS/2 Warp Server for e-business, you must be familiar with
new concepts related to installation, including the Logical Volume Manager,
Journaled File System, and information about selecting a file system.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.1. New Concepts Related to Installation ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
While Overview of OS/2 Warp Server for e-business gave you an overview of the
product, this section explains new concepts in greater detail, allowing you to
make informed decisions about your network before you begin installation.
The following concepts are new to OS/2 Warp Server for e-business:
Logical Volume Manager (LVM)
Journaled File System (JFS)
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.1.1. Logical Volume Manager ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Logical Volume Manager (LVM.EXE) replaces the Fixed Disk (FDISK.EXE) utility
from previous versions of OS/2. LVM provides all the function of FDISK, and it
provides additional features, such as disk spanning, dynamic resizing, and
sticky drive letters.
LVM allows user configuration of physical and logical volumes (usually referred
to as drives in previous versions of OS/2).
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.1.1.1. Logical Volumes ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
A logical volume is one or more partitions with an associated drive letter. It
is treated as if it were a single, contiguous partition. Volumes have drive
letters associated with them, but partitions do not.
You can create two types of volumes with LVM: compatibility volumes and LVM
volumes.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.1.1.2. Compatibility Volumes ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
A compatibility volume is a special volume that is compatible with previous
versions of OS/2 or other operating systems. It corresponds to a single,
physical partition, and it can be made bootable. (LVM volumes cannot be made
bootable.) Each compatibility volume can exist on only one physical hard
drive, and it does not have dynamic expansion support.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.1.1.3. LVM Volumes ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
An LVM volume is the default volume created by LVM. It can span multiple
physical hard disks and can be dynamically expanded. LVM volumes, unlike
compatibility volumes, are not bootable.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.1.1.4. Disk Spanning ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Disk spanning can be thought of as drive linking. It allows you to link
multiple partitions on multiple physical disks (hard disks) into a single, LVM
volume. Disk spanning allows you to create any size LVM volume by linking
multiple physical disks together. The LVM volume appears as one drive,
compatible with all file operations presently used.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.1.1.5. Dynamic Partition Resizing ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Dynamic partition resizing allows you to expand an LVM volume to accommodate
additional needed capacity without affecting the data already on the volume.
Resizing works with JFS only. The LVM volume expands when you link additional
partitions (which can be on the same physical disk or on other physical disks).
Note: Additional space is always added to the end of the current LVM volume
space.
Note: Volume shrinking is not supported.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.1.1.6. Dynamic Drive Lettering ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Dynamic drive lettering allows you to manage drive letters without having to
reboot the system under most circumstances. Previous OS/2 implementations
statically allocated the number of drives at boot time, forcing you to reboot
the system whenever you added or deleted drives.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.1.1.7. Sticky Drive Letters ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Sticky drive letters allow you to assign a drive letter to a new LVM volume or
compatibility volume, and that drive letter will remain persistent until you
delete the volume. This function prevents problems resulting from drive order
changing with repartitioning or adding new hardware.
Note: Drive letters should not be changed where the operating system or any of
its components reside.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.1.1.8. Special Considerations ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Removable media can support LVM and compatibility volumes. Both types of
volumes support assignable drive letters with the following restrictions:
Disk spanning is not supported across removable media. Partitions that
are part of a logical volume that spans disks cannot reside on removable
media.
Removable media volumes have assigned drive letters that are treated as
preferences. When a removable media volume is mounted, its assigned drive
letter will be used, if available. Otherwise, the first available drive
letter will be assigned to the volume.
Bootable partitions must be compatibility volumes; they cannot be LVM
volumes.
Partitions that use the Fault Tolerance feature of 386 HPFS must be
compatibility volumes; they cannot be LVM volumes.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.1.2. Journaled File System (JFS) ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
The Journaled File System (JFS) provides a high-performance, 32-bit file system
implementation for the OS/2 Warp Server for e-business environment. JFS is
tailored primarily for the high throughput and reliability requirements of
servers from single processor systems to advanced multiprocessor and clustered
systems where performance and reliability are desired.
JFS uses the proven technology of the existing AIX JFS implementation, and it
is enhanced to provide support for extended attributes, unicode names, and
case-insensitive searches. Also, a number of significant features are added to
JFS to make it more competitive and scalable, resulting in fundamental changes
to the file system layout. These features include extent-based allocation,
sorted directories, and dynamic space allocation for file system objects.
JFS offers the following advantages over other file systems:
Larger partition sizes: Increased maximum volume size from 64GB to 2TB
Larger file sizes: Increased maximum file size from 2GB to 2TB
Functional compatibility: Provides compatibility with applications that
currently use HPFS features, such as long filenames
Improved recovery time
Improved file system scalability
Utilities
- EXTENDFS. Volume expansion in conjunction with LVM allows you to
increase the size of a volume with the JFS file system. This utility
is automatically called by LVM upon volume expansion. EXTENDFS is
not available for FAT, HPFS, and 386 HPFS partitions.
- DEFRAGFS allows you to defragment a file system's free space.
Note: JFS is not a bootable file system.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.1.2.1. System Structure ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Before discussing the details of JFS, it is important to understand what JFS is
and where it fits into the OS/2 system.
The JFS component is made up of two pieces. The first is an Installable File
System (IFS) that provides read/write access and persistent storage, while
supporting OS/2 file system semantics and coexisting with other file systems.
The second piece is a set of utilities for creating and maintaining JFS file
systems at the lowest media level.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.1.2.2. Journaling ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
JFS provides improved structural consistency, recoverability, and much faster
restart times than current nonjournaled file systems, such as DOS FAT, OS/2
HPFS, 386 HPFS, and traditional UNIX file systems. File systems are subject to
corruption in the event of system failure because a logical file operation
takes multiple media I/Os to accomplish, and the operation may not be totally
reflected on the media at any given point in time. These file systems rely on
restart-time utilities, such as CHKDSK, which examine all of a file system's
meta-data to detect and repair structural integrity problems. This is a
time-consuming and error-prone process which, in the worst case, can lose or
misplace data.
In contrast, JFS uses techniques originally developed for databases to log
information about operations performed on file system meta-data as atomic
transactions. In the event of a system failure, a file system is restored to a
consistent state by replaying the log and applying log records for the
appropriate transactions. The recovery time associated with this log-based
approach is much faster because the replay utility need only examine the log
records produced by recent file system activity, rather than examine all file
system meta-data.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.1.2.3. Variable Block Size ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
JFS supports block sizes of 512, 1024, 2048, and 4096 bytes on a per file
system basis, allowing you to optimize space utilization based upon your
application environment. Smaller block sizes reduce the amount of internal
fragmentation within files and directories, and they are more space efficient.
However, small blocks can increase path length because block allocation
activities may occur more often than if a larger block size was used. The
default block size is 4096 bytes because performance, rather than space
utilization, is generally the primary consideration for server systems.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.1.2.4. Journaled File System Object Names ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.1.2.4.1. Unicode Filenames and Directory Names ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
JFS is enabled for National Language Support (NLS) and will store and
manipulate all file and directory names that it manages as strings of unicode
characters. This storage method guarantees that directories are correctly
sorted no matter which code page is used during a particular file system
session. Thus, JFS provides the performance benefits of sorted directories
while being enabled for full multinational access.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.1.2.4.2. Case Sensitivity ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
JFS supports case for names in a fashion consistent with the HPFS
implementation. Names are stored and returned as received (case is preserved),
but case is ignored during directory searches.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.1.2.4.3. Maximum Filename and Directory Name Length ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Like HPFS, JFS limits the length of a file or directory name to 254 unicode
characters. This satisfies the requirements of existing OS/2 applications.
JFS supports path names of up to 260 characters in length. This limit is
imposed by the Installable File System Manager (IFSM).
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.1.2.5. Online File System Expansion ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
JFS supports the expansion of a mounted and actively accessed file system with
the LVM utility. Should a file system run out of space, you can increase the
file system size without the disruption of backing up the file system contents,
reformatting the volume, and then restoring the file system contents.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.1.2.6. Online Free Space Defragmentation ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
JFS supports the defragmentation of free space in a mounted and actively
accessed file system with the DEFRAGFS utility. When a file system's free space
has become fragmented, defragmenting the file system allows JFS to provide more
I/O-efficient disk allocations and to avoid some out of space conditions.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.1.2.7. Sparse and Dense Files ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
JFS supports both sparse and dense files on a per file system basis.
Sparse files allow data to be written to random locations within a file without
allocating previously unwritten intervening file blocks. The file size reported
is the highest byte which has been written to, but the actual allocation of any
given block in the file does not occur until a write operation is performed on
that block.
For example, suppose a new file is created in a file system designated for
sparse files. An application writes a block of data to block 100 in the file.
JFS will report the size of this file as 100 blocks, although only 1 block of
disk space has been allocated to it. If the application next reads block 50 of
the file, JFS will return a block of zero-filled bytes. Suppose the application
then writes a block of data to block 50 of the file. JFS will still report the
size of this file as 100 blocks, and now 2 blocks of disk space have been
allocated to it. Sparse files are of interest to applications that require a
large, logical space, but use only a small subset of this space.
For dense files, disk resources are allocated to cover the file size. In the
above example, the first write (a block of data to block 100 in the file) would
cause 100 blocks of disk space to be allocated to the file. A read operation on
any block that has not been explicitly written to will return a block of
zero-filled bytes, just as in the case of a sparse file. Because OS/2
applications most commonly use dense files, by default a new file system is
designated for dense files.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.2. Selecting a File System ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
A file system is the software implementation of a system for managing user data
on a disk or other medium. In other words, it is the part of the operating
system that provides access to files and programs on a disk. Each type of
Installable File System (IFS) has implementation-specific details, such as
directory formats and file layouts. During installation, if you choose to
format an existing volume or a volume you created during installation, you are
asked to select a file system.
You can choose from the following file systems when you install OS/2 Warp
Server for e-business:
Journaled File System (JFS)
High-Performance File System (HPFS)
386 High-Performance File System (386 HPFS) if you have a valid proof of
license
File Allocation Table File System (FAT)
JFS is a Journaled File System, and it is available only if you use LVM
volumes.
HPFS is OS/2 High Performance File System, and it is provided as part of the
OS/2 base operating system.
386 HPFS Installable File System is provided as part of the previous LAN
Server Advanced products, and it is available for purchase from IBM.
FAT is File Allocation Table, and it is a file system used by DOS.
Refer to File System Comparison Chart for a side-by-side comparison of file
system characteristics.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.2.1. Journaled File System ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
JFS gives you the ability to create and maintain volumes up to 2TB in size, as
opposed to the HPFS and 386 HPFS limit of 64GB and the FAT limit of 2GB. JFS
also allows file sizes of up to 2TB, while HPFS, 386 HPFS, and FAT allow file
sizes of 2GB.
JFS is compatible with applications already using HPFS. It offers decreased
recovery time from system failures and fault tolerance from journaling
techniques.
JFS allows you to expand volumes in conjunction with Logical Volume Manager,
resulting in improved file system scalability compared to other file systems.
JFS is not a bootable file system, and it requires the use of LVM volumes.
See Journaled File System (JFS) for detailed information about JFS.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.2.2. High-Performance File System (HPFS) ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
HPFS filename rules are more flexible than those of FAT, allowing you to create
more descriptive filenames. HPFS allows filenames of up to 254 characters.
Spaces and periods are also allowed.
HPFS has features that make it a better choice than FAT for larger volumes, up
to 64GB. HPFS puts the directory at the seek center of the volume and is
designed to allocate contiguous space for files, thus helping to prevent disk
fragmentation. Use HPFS instead of FAT on larger volumes because the savings in
disk space is dramatic.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.2.3. 386 High-Performance File System (386 HPFS) ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
386 HPFS is a server-optimized derivative of HPFS. It provides improved access
to large disk volumes, and it optimizes performance in a server environment
where many files are open simultaneously from clients.
During installation, you will have the opportunity to install 386 HPFS and
Fault Tolerance options during the File and Print Services component
installation.
Previous versions of 386 HPFS are not compatible with OS/2 Warp Server for
e-business. To use 386 HPFS with OS/2 Warp Server for e-business, you must have
a valid license as explained below.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.2.3.1. 386 HPFS Licensing ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
To install 386 HPFS, you must provide a valid proof of license when prompted to
do so. A diskette or CD-ROM from one of the following products is accepted as
valid proof of license:
OS/2 Warp Server 4.0 Advanced/SMP
OS/2 LAN Server - Server Diskette 1 generated using the INSTUTIL.EXE
utility to create product diskettes
OS/2 LAN Server 4.0/Advanced
OS/2 LAN Server 3.0/Advanced
386 HPFS License Diskette (may be purchased from IBM)
If you do not have a valid license, or if you would like to purchase
additional licenses for 386 HPFS, you may purchase the 386 HPFS License
Diskette from IBM.
Note: A 386 HPFS license is required for each workstation on which 386 HPFS
is installed.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.2.3.2. Fault Tolerance ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
386 HPFS must be selected for installation of the 386 HPFS Fault Tolerance
component.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.2.3.3. Local Security ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
386 HPFS must be selected for installation of the 386 HPFS Local Security
component. The Local Security option is available to install only after 386
HPFS is installed and running by using Selective Install.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.2.4. FAT File System ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
The File Allocation Table (FAT) file system is a file system compatible with
DOS. FAT file systems have a file allocation table that keeps track of the
files and their locations on the hard disk. Filenames cannot exceed 8
characters, and the filename extension cannot exceed 3 characters. A period is
always required between the filename and the extension. Spaces are not allowed,
and only certain nonalphanumeric characters are allowed.
Select the FAT file system if you intend to share data in the volume with a
version of DOS that is running independently of OS/2 Warp Server for
e-business. For example, if you occasionally need to start DOS from a diskette
and access the data in the OS/2 Warp Server for e-business volume, the OS/2
Warp Server for e-business volume must be formatted for the FAT file system.
DOS uses the FAT file system and does not recognize files created by HPFS.
Although a copy of DOS running in native mode does not recognize HPFS, this is
not the case for DOS sessions that run under OS/2 Warp Server for e-business.
If you plan to run your DOS programs in the DOS sessions that are part of OS/2
Warp Server for e-business, you can format for either file system. The only
restriction for DOS programs running in these DOS sessions is that the programs
will not recognize the longer filenames supported by an HPFS partition.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 4.2.5. Multinational Sharing of Files ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
In today's global business environment, there is a critical need for
multinational sharing of files within a file system. The concept of
multinational sharing of files is that individual files may be created using
one code page (character set) and accessed using a different code page.
In contrast to HPFS, 386 HPFS, and FAT, JFS stores all file and directory names
in unicode. This storage method guarantees that directories are correctly
sorted no matter which code page is used during a particular file system
session. Thus, JFS provides the performance benefits of sorted directories
while being enabled for full multinational access.
If HPFS files created using different code pages reside within a single
directory, HPFS may be unable to maintain the directories upon which its search
algorithms depend. When this problem arises, some files in such a directory may
become inaccessible.
FAT file systems tolerate multinational access well because they do not
maintain sorted directories. However, the performance cost of unsorted
directory structures prevents FAT from being a viable alternative for most
software environments.

There are three main parts to the installation process:
1. Preparing the system: selecting the installation volume
2. Configuring hardware and software options
3. Installing and configuring server components
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 5.1. Preparing the System: Selecting the Installation Volume ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
This phase of installation determines whether the target system meets the
prerequisites for installing the operating system. It also makes the volume
selected for installing the operating system bootable and prepares the hard
disk for installation, formatting if necessary. Necessary files are copied, and
then the system is rebooted.
To begin the installation process:
1. Gather the OS/2 Warp Server for e-business Installation diskette,
Diskette 1, and Diskette 2.
2. Insert the Installation diskette in drive A: and turn on the workstation.
3. Follow the prompts on the screen as directed. For additional information,
refer to the online Help screens by pressing F1.
During installation you can select the installation volume. You can choose to:
Accept the default drive letter
Change the default drive letter
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 5.1.1. Accepting the Default Drive Letter ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

Installation will then continue.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 5.1.3. Managing Volumes with Logical Volume Manager ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
The Logical Volume Manager (LVM) allows you to create and manage volumes on the
hard disks in your system. LVM components are initially installed and
configured during the OS/2 Warp Server for e-business installation process. At
certain points during installation, the LVM interface will display.
LVM provides both logical and physical views of the system. The logical volume
view displays the volumes currently configured on the system. The physical disk
view shows how the hard disks are configured. You can switch between the two
views by pressing F5.
For your convenience, LVM is available with three interfaces: text-mode,
graphical user interface (GUI), and command line. During OS/2 Warp Server for
e-business installation, the text mode interface will display. Instructions for
this interface are covered in this section. Instructions for the GUI interface
are available in Network Administrator Tasks. For information about the command
line interface, see the Command Reference. You can use any of three LVM
interfaces after the initial installation of OS/2 Warp Server for e-business to
perform additional configuration as needed.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 5.1.3.1. Terminology ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Certain terms are used throughout this section. Below are brief descriptions of
these terms:
Hard disk A physical storage device used to store data. A hard disk may have a
label, or name, assigned to it.
Free space The area on a hard disk that has not been allocated for use by a
file system or an operating system.
Partition An area on a hard disk that has been allocated for use by a file
system or an operating system. A partition may have a label, or
name, assigned to it, but it does not have a drive letter assigned
to it.
Volume Storage space that has been assigned a drive letter for use by a
file system or operating system. A volume may contain one or more
partitions, and it may have a label, or name, assigned to it. Two
types of volumes are possible with LVM: compatibility volumes and
LVM volumes.
File system Used to describe the type of formatting used, such as JFS, HPFS,
386 HPFS, and FAT.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 5.1.3.2. Using the Logical Volume View ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
The logical volume view displays the volumes currently configured on the
system. You can use this view to create and manage volumes on your system and
specify Boot Manager support options.
Boot Manager is a utility that allows you to have multiple operating systems on
a hard disk. The Boot Manager menu displays when you boot the system, allowing
you to choose which operating system to use.
The logical volume view is divided into two windows. The upper window displays
the volumes currently in use. This window is used to create, delete, hide,
name, and expand volumes, plus specify Boot Manager support options.
When you select a volume, its partition information is displayed in the lower
window.
Other information in the upper logical view window includes:
Logical Volume The name that has been assigned to the volume. A volume
consists of one or more partitions. It is assigned a drive letter
and is treated as if it were a single, contiguous partition. You can
specify the name when you create a volume with the Create a New
Volume option, or you can change the name with the Change the Volume
Name option.
Type Two types of volumes are possible with LVM: Compatibility volumes
and LVM volumes. Compatibility volumes created by LVM can be marked
bootable and are accessible by other operating systems. The OS/2
base operating system must be installed on a compatibility volume.
LVM volumes can be formatted for the JFS file system and can link
multiple partitions into a single volume. LVM volumes can be
accessed only by OS/2 versions that contain LVM.
Status Indicates if a volume is bootable, startable, or installable. If set
bootable, the respective volume is displayed on the Boot Manager
menu when the system is started. LVM volumes cannot be bootable. If
set startable, the respective volume can be used to start the
system. If set installable, the respective volume will be the target
for installing OS/2 Warp Server for e-business.
File System Indicates the type of file system used on the volume. Any volumes
that have not been formatted will have a file type indicated as
None.
Size Indicates the size, in megabytes (MB), of the volume.

ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 5.3.2.1. File and Print Sharing Services ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
This option allows you to make choices about installing File and Print Sharing
Services. Select the installation drive and type of server you want to install:
Installation drive. This is the drive on which to install File and Print
Server. Select a drive from the displayed list on which to install the
service. Make sure the disk drive is already formatted and has enough
space for all the services you are installing.
Domain controller. This is a server within the domain that is designated
to manage the domain. This option installs the domain controller server.
The domain controller must be running before users can log on to the
domain and use its resources.
Additional server. This is a server other than the domain controller (and
the backup domain controller) in a domain. If you select this option, a
server other than the domain controller (and backup domain controller)
will be installed. Multiple additional servers can exist in a domain.
Each additional server receives a copy of the user and group definition
file from the domain controller when updates are made.
Backup domain controller. This is a server designated to validate logon
requests and manage access to and use of network resources if the domain
controller is not functioning or is busy. This option installs a backup
domain controller server designated to validate logon requests and manage
access to and use of network resources if the domain controller is not
functioning or is busy.
Reinitialize the domain control database. The domain control database
(DCDB) resides on the domain controller, and it contains files that
describe and control the current domain. This option will reinitialize
the DCDB. The DCDB contains files, applications, and machine definitions.
Type the name or accept the default name for the server and the domain:
Server name. This is the name of the server. Specify a name that
identifies this workstation on the LAN. The workstation name must be
unique on the LAN. Do not use special characters. The server name cannot
be the same as the domain name. Type 1 to 15 alphanumeric characters in
the server name field.
Domain name. This is the domain name for the workstation. The domain name
defines the group of users who share resources on a LAN. For example, a
LAN with 50 workstations could have three domains. The users in each
domain would have easy access to their domain's resources. Type 1 to 15
alphanumeric characters in the domain name field to specify the domain on
which this server is a member. Do not use special characters. The domain
name cannot be the same as the server name.
If you just installed a File and Print Sharing server and it is not the domain
controller (the first File and Print Sharing server on the LAN), it is called
an additional server or a backup server. You must define an additional server
on the domain before it can share resources with users on the LAN. The
additional server receives information about users and groups of users from
the domain controller. A server definition for an additional server includes
the server name (machine ID), a brief description of the server, and the
domain to which the server belongs.
If you specify your File and Print Sharing Server as an additional server or a
backup server, you will need to define it to the domain controller before it
can be used. For information on how to define servers, refer to Defining an
Additional Server to the Domain. For information on how to increase the speed
and enhance the efficiency of File and Print Sharing Services, refer to
Performance Tuning.

ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 5.3.2.3. User ID and Password ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Enter the ID and password for your use as a system administrator. Be sure to
record your ID and password.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 5.3.2.4. TCP/IP Services ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
TCP/IP Services allows you to install functions so the server can distribute
TCP/IP configuration for client workstations. It includes the ability to
install Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) and Dynamic Domain Name
Server (DDNS) server functions on your workstation. Configure your DHCP server
within TCP/IP Services after completing the OS/2 Warp Server for e-business
installation. With these functions, your workstation can distribute IP
addresses and other TCP/IP configuration information dynamically to the DHCP
clients on the LAN. DHCP and DDNS client support is included in both the server
installation and in the client package. A server can function as either a DHCP
Server or a DHCP client.
Find out from your TCP/IP administrator whether DHCP or DDNS functions are
available to you on the LAN. OS/2 Warp Server for e-business can use DHCP
services from a variety of network operating systems. You cannot set the server
to simultaneously use DHCP client and be a DHCP server.
If you do not select DDNS Server as available on the LAN, you need to specify
the TCP/IP address, subnet mask, router, host name, and name server.
Use the TCP/IP Services option to specify information about TCP/IP on your
workstation. This TCP/IP configuration information is optional during the
initial installation process, but you must configure TCP/IP after installation
before you can use it on a LAN. If you want to use TCP/IP only to access the
Internet through a modem, this configuration information is not needed.
To configure TCP/IP Services, select the hard disk drive on which you want to
install TCP/IP services.
DHCP provides a framework for passing configuration information to hosts on a
TCP/IP network. The DHCP server supports automatic, dynamic, and manual
allocation of Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. A DHCP server must be attached
to the network, and the clients must have DHCP support before they can use this
DHCP function.
DDNS automatically registers the TCP/IP host names and IP address mappings of
the workstations attached to the LAN. Select DHCP Server is available on the
LAN if the workstation on which you are installing TCP/IP Services will use a
DHCP server that is installed elsewhere on the LAN. If neither a DHCP or DDNS
server is available to this workstation, specify the following:
TCP/IP address. This is your workstation's IP address. An IP address has
four numbers, which are separated by decimal points. Each number can have
1 to 3 digits; for example, 10.3.227.xx.
Subnet mask. This is the subnet mask used in your TCP/IP LAN; for
example, 255.255.254.0.
Router. This is the IP address of your TCP/IP LAN's network router; for
example, 10.3.226.1.
Host name. This is your workstation's name on the TCP/IP network; for
example, myhost.
TCP/IP domain name (optional). This is the name of the TCP/IP domain in
which your workstation operates; for example, test.company.com.
Name server. This is the IP address of your TCP/IP LAN's name server; for
example, 10.3.199.2. You must have an IP address to use TCP/IP on the
network.

ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 6. Post-Installation Options ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 6.1. Installing Components to JFS Drives ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
The following scenarios will allow you to install components to JFS partitions:
Using Boot Manager and Having a Second Boot Partition
Moving Installed Components to a JFS Partition that is Created After
Installation
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 6.1.1. Using Boot Manager and Having a Second Bootable Volume ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
If you have already installed OS/2 Warp Server for e-business on one volume and
then created and formatted several LVM volumes for JFS, you may want to use
Boot Manager and have a second bootable volume. You can set a volume having a
FAT, HPFS, or 386 HPFS file system to be installable and to become the boot
drive for the second installation. During the second installation, you can
select an existing JFS volume as a target drive for components or OS/2
subsystems, such as multimedia.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 6.1.2. Moving Installed Components to a JFS Volume that is Created After Installation ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Because a component, or directories that a component owns, can be installed
onto a JFS volume, you can move some installed components to a JFS volume that
is created after a successful OS/2 Warp Server for e-business installation.
To move the components to a JFS volume:
1. Uninstall the component.
2. Reinstall the component to a JFS drive.
As in previous releases of OS/2 Warp Server and OS/2, you can move components
manually (for products that install a SYSLEVEL file) as follows:
1. Move the necessary directories to the new JFS volume.
2. Update the CONFIG.SYS path and libpath statements, if required.
3. Add a USERDIRS.xxx file with the path to the directory in the new
location on a JFS volume.
Note: The USERDIRS file must be in the same directory as the product's
SYSLEVEL file, and is used by FIXTOOL to find and service the
component that has been moved.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 6.2. Adding New Device Drivers to Boot Diskettes ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
You can modify the boot diskettes to support new hardware in two ways:
Adding a device driver to the boot diskettes
Replacing a device driver that shipped with OS/2 Warp Server for
e-business
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 6.2.1. Adding a Device Driver to the Boot Diskettes ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
This procedure is used when the device driver is new and was not shipped with
OS/2 Warp Server for e-business.
To add a new device driver to the boot diskettes:
1. Manually copy the device driver file to Diskette 1 or Diskette 2.
2. Edit the CONFIG.SYS file on Diskette 1 and add any required BASEDEV= or
DEVICE= statement.
3. Make sure the statement SET SAVECONNECT=1 is in the CONFIG.SYS file on
Diskette 1.
The installation program will copy the device driver into the root directory
of the target partition. It will also append the statement that you just added
to the bottom of the CONFIG.SYS file on the target partition.
Note: If there are any dependencies for the device driver as far as ordering
in CONFIG.SYS or the directory it should reside in, you must manually
make these modifications. These dependencies should be explained in the
README file associated with the new device driver.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 6.2.2. Replacing a Device Driver that Shipped with OS/2 Warp Server for e-business ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
This procedure should be used to install a newer version of a device driver
that shipped with OS/2 Warp Server. When you receive a replacement for a device
driver that resides on Diskette 1 or Diskette 2:
1. Copy the device driver over the existing file on Diskette 1 or Diskette 2
2. Add SET COPYFROMFLOPPY=1 to the CONFIG.SYS file on Diskette 1
The installation program will then use the new device driver and copy the
necessary files to the target partition.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 6.3. Installing Domino Go Webserver and IBM WebSphere Application Server ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 6.4. Configuring a PPP Server Ethernet Bridge after Installing OS/2 Warp Server for e-business ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
You do not need to configure an Ethernet Bridge if all your remote access
clients are PPP clients.
If you configure an Ethernet Bridge through the LAN Distance Settings notebook,
Settings modifies the PROTOCOL.INI file as follows:
Replaces the Ethernet adapter in the Bindings statements for NetBEUI and
TCPBEUI with the LAN Distance logical adapter.
Modifies and deletes statements in the NetBIOS section based on changes
to the Bindings statements for NetBEUI and TCPBEUI.
This reconfiguration may affect your LAN Server configuration.
The following example demonstrates how your LAN Server configuration could be
affected by the configuration of an Ethernet Bridge.
Your system was configured as follows prior configuration of the Ethernet
Bridge:
The MPTS adapters and protocols configuration panel displays the
following:
- IBM LAN Adapter for Ethernet [IBMENI.OS2]...
0 - IBM OS/2 NetBIOS
0 - IBM TCP/IP
2 - IBM OS/2 NetBIOS over TCP/IP
- LAN Distance Logical Adapter...
1 - IBM TCP/IP
1 - IBM OS/2 NetBIOS
The networks section in the LAN Server configuration file, IBMLAN.INI,
contains the following statements:
net1 = NETBEUI$,0,LM10,34,70.14
net2 = NETBEUI$,1,LM10,34,70.14
net3 = TCPBEUI$,2,LM10,34,70.14
After the configuration of the Ethernet Bridge, your system is configured as
follows:
The MPTS adapters and protocols configuration panel displays the
following:
- LAN Distance Logical Adapter...
0 - IBM OS/2 NetBIOS
2 - IBM OS/2 NetBIOS over TCP/IP
1 - IBM TCP/IP
- IBM LAN Adapter for Ethernet [IBMENI.OS2]...
1 - IBM TCP/IP
1 - [SR_BRIDGE]
- [BRIDGEFH]...
1 - [SR_BRIDGE]
The networks section in the LAN Server configuration file, IBMLAN.INI,
still contains the following statements:
net1 = NETBEUI$,0,LM10,34,70.14
net2 = NETBEUI$,1,LM10,34,70.14
net3 = TCPBEUI$,2,LM10,34,70.14
With this configuration, the following error is displayed when you shutdown
and reboot the system:
NET3406: An error occurred while opening network device drive net2=NETBEUI$
NET3411: There was an error installing NETWKSTA.200
To correct the configuration:
1. Open the OS/2 LAN Services folder.
2. Open the OS/2 LAN Services Installation/Configuration program.
3. Step through the LAN Services Adapters configuration panels until the
Adapter and Protocol Configuration panel is displayed.
4. Add IBM OS/2 NetBIOS and IBM OS/2 NetBIOS over TCP/IP under the Ethernet
adapter.
Note: If you do not make any changes in the configuration panel, the
program automatically corrects the IBMLAN.INI file settings based
on your current adapter and protocol configuration when you apply
the changes. However, remote clients will not be able to access
resources on your LAN for those networks that are removed.
When you are finished configuring LAN Services, the IBMLAN.INI file will
remain the same.
The MPTS adapters and protocols configuration panel displays the following:
IBM LAN Adapter for Ethernet [IBMENI.OS2]...
- 0 - IBM OS/2 NetBIOS
- 0 - IBM TCP/IP
- 2 - IBM OS/2 NetBIOS over TCP/IP
- 0 - [SR_BRIDGE]
LAN Distance Logical Adapter...
- 1 - IBM TCP/IP
- 1 - IBM OS/2 NetBIOS
[BRIDGEFH]...
- 1 - [SR_BRIDGE]
