Redirected Installation of OS/2 2.0 Service Pak I.
Service Level XR06055
This article was compiled using ITSC's Redbook, OS/2 V2.0 and
V2.1 Remote Installation and Maintenance (gg24-3780-02); NTS/2
Redirected Installation and Configuration Guide (s96f-8488-00);
and NTS/2 LAN Adapter and Protocol Support Configuration Guide
(s96f-8489-00). The above mentioned NTS/2 references are provided
with IBM's OS/2 LAN Server V3.0 (P/N 96f8400 or 96F8414).
The required hardware and software for the code server and for
its clients are listed in Figure 1.
Figure 1. Code Server and Client Hardware/Software Requirements
Server Hardware/Software Requirements:
386 or greater
8MB RAM (16MB suggested)
1.44MB diskette drive
Token Ring Network
16/4 Token Ring Adapter (ISA or MCA)
DASD requirements: 120MB (recommended)
OS/2 2.1 (recommended)
NTS/2 LAN Adapter and Protocol Support (LAPS) w/ NTS2FIX
(NTS2FIX contains fix to LAPSCID.DLL and LAPSPM.DLL.
Call 1-800-992-4777 to obtain NTS2FIX or obtain Service
Level wr07020 of LAPS (recommended) which includes
NTS2FIX.)
NTS/2 Utilities Disk
Client Hardware/Software Requirements:
386 or greater
6MB RAM (minimum)
1.44MB A_drive (bootable)
16/4 Token Ring Adapter (ISA or MCA)
minimum OS/2 DASD requirements
The procedure described below will provide an administrator or
end-user a step-by-step procedure to build an OS/2 redirected
installation server of xr06055. Note, that this procedure does
not describe a CID installation of xr06055, but rather a
redirected installation of xr06055. You will not need the REXX
procedures provided with NTS/2 utilities.
Step 1. Create a 60MB primary partition (Drive C) for OS/2 2.1
(recommended) and LAPS, and an extended logical partition (Drive
D), 60MB, for your code server. Install OS/2 2.1 on your primary
partition.
Step 2. Install LAPS on your primary partition. When you
configure LAPS, choose the 16/4 Token Ring device drivers and
OS/2 NETBIOS.
Step 3. On drive D, create the directory shown in Figure 2.
Figure 2. Directory Structure for Drive D on Code Server
d:\server
d:\cid
d:\cid\csd
d:\cid\csd\os2v20
d:\cid\csd\os2v20\xr06055
d:\cid\exe
d:\cid\exe\csd\os2v20\xr06055
d:\cid\img
d:\cid\img\laps
d:\cid\img\srvifs
d:\cid\rsp
d:\cid\rsp\csd
d:\cid\rsp\csd\os2v20
d:\cid\rsp\csd\os2v20\xr06055
Step 4. Insert the NTS/2 Utilities diskette into Drive A and type
the following command:
xcopy a:\srvifs d:\cid\img\srvifs
copy a:\sample\service.* d:\server
copy d:\cid\img\srvifs\xi*.* d:\server
copy d:\cid\img\srvifs\service.exe d:\server
Step 5. This step copies the LAPS disk to your code server.
Insert the NTS/2 LAPS diskette into drive A and type the
following command:
a:\lapsdisk a: d:\cid\img\laps
Step 6. To install the CSD images, xcopy all of the Service Pak I
images to the following directory:
xcopy a:\*.* d:\cid\csd\os2v20\xr06055 /s
Step 7. This step will describe how to build your SRVIFS
configuration file. A description of the parameters in Figure 5
can be found in NTS/2's, Redirected Installation and
Configuration Guide, Chapter 6. Refer to this manual to tune your
SRVIFS configuration file for your environment.
In Step 4, you copied service.ini to d:\server. Use an ASCII
editor to edit d:\server\service.ini to reflect the statements
in Figure 3.
Figure 3. Editing d:\server\service.ini
# SRVIFS Configuration file
Adapter = 0 /* Assumes one Token Ring Adapter in server */
MaxClients = 5
MaxFiles = 102
Name = IMGSRV01 /* Code Server Name */
GroupName = No
ClientWorkers = 6
Path = d:\
PerClient = No
PermitWrite = No
alias=readonly,single,csd,d:\cid\csd
alias=readonly,single,rsp,d:\cid\rsp
Step 8. In this step, thinsrv.exe accomplishes three tasks: (1)
it creates or modifies your startup.cmd with statements necessary
to start your code server; (2) it apends path information in your
config.sys; (3) it adds ifsdel.exe to d:\server. Ifsdel.exe will
not be needed for redirected installation.
a. cd\cid\img\srvifs
b. thinsrv /r:d:\server\service.ini /s:d:\cid\img\srvifs
/t:d:\server /tu:c:
Step 9. Shut down and reboot. Figure 4 displays what you see when
your code server has successfully started.

IMGSRV01 Server is Active, Version 1.32
Step 10. Creating LAN Transport (LT) Client Diskettes
OS/2 2.0 Service Pak I (xr06055):
It is not necessary to run SEDISK for Service Pak II to create
your LT client boot diskettes. Follow the steps shown in Figure 5
to create your LT boot diskettes for xr06100:
Figure 5. Creating your LT Boot Diskettes
a. inset disk_1 from the xr06055
b. diskcopy a: a: (we are creating a backup copy of disk_1
which will be used as your install disk)
c. Insert Disk 2 into drive A
d. diskcopy a: a: (we are creating a backup copy of disk_2
which will be used as disk_1 of your LT boot diskettes)
e. place the backup copy of disk_2 into drive A
f. copy a:\fservice.* d:\cid\exe\csd\os2v20\xr06055
g. del a:\fservice.*
h. del a:\fix\os2
i. cd\cid\img\laps
j. thinlaps d:\cid\img\laps a: IBMTOK.NIF
k. cd\cid\img\srvifs
l. thinifs /t:a: /s:d:\cid\img\srvifs /tu:a: /req:*
/d:x: /srv:\\imgsrv01\csd /w
m. thinifs /t:a: /s:d:\cid\img\srvifs /tu:a: /req:*
/d:y: /srv:\\imgsrv01\exe /w
n. thinifs /t:a: /s:d:\cid\img\srvifs /tu:a: /req:*
/d:z: /srv:\\imgsrv01\rsp /w
o. edit the config.sys of disk_1 (LT boot diskette) with
these changes:
a. os2_shell=y:\csd\os2v20\xr06055\fservice.exe
/s:x:\os2v20\xr06055
/r:z:\csd\os2v20\xr06055\default.rsp
Step 10. This step will describe how to build your response
file. Use an ASCII editor to create a file with the statements
below, name it default.rsp, copy it to
d:\cid\rsp\csd\os2v20\xr06055. This response file will migrate
your current version of OS/2 2.0 on your primary partition (Drive
C) to service level XR06055. See ITSC's Redbook, OS/2 V2.0 and
V2.1 Remote Installation and Maintenance, Chapter 8 for a list of
Corrective Service Facility response file keywords.
