doconfig(8) System Manager's Manual doconfig(8) Name doconfig - a program to aid system configuration Syntax /etc/doconfig [-c config_file] [-e ed_script] Description The shell script modifies a copy of the GENERIC configuration file for a new ULTRIX system kernel. The script prompts you for the system name. If the system name does not currently exist, a system configuration file with that system name is built. Whether the configuration file is built or not, the script then allows you to edit, configure, and build until both the configuration and the kernel build run without errors. Additional runs of can be made to tune the configuration further. When new hardware is added to a system, the configuration file should be updated to reflect the new system configuration. When updating an existing configuration file or creating a new configuration file with the system must be operating the generic kernel or new hardware may not be found. To successfully complete the process, follow these steps: 1. Save the running as 2. Move to 3. Reboot the system to single user mode. 4. Check file systems. 5. Mount the file system. 6. Run the program. (When execution is complete, make a note of the message prints showing the path and location of the new 7. Move to 8. Copy the new (from the message noted above) to 9. Reboot the system. Options -c The name of the existing configuration file should be supplied without specifying the pathname. This file should exist in the directory. A new kernel is built using the specified configuration file. -e When specified, the configuration file is edited by the ed script before building the new kernel.

itruns(8) System Manager's Manual itruns(8) NAME
itruns - set up files for use by the it command SYNOPSIS
/sbin/itruns file [file...] in run-state [, file [file...] in run-state] [,...] DESCRIPTION
The itruns program sets up scripts to be run by it(8). (These programs are typically used within system configuration and installation scripts.) The itruns command searches for /sbin/it.d/bin/file. If itruns finds the file, it creates one or more symbolic links from /sbin/it.d/run-state.d/file to /sbin/it.d/bin/file. The run-state argument can be a single run state, or it can be two run states separated by either the word or or the word and. If two run states are specified with the or keyword, itruns checks for (and creates, if necessary) a directory whose name combines both run states and places a link in that directory so that the file will be executed when the it program detects either state. You can collapse two or-sepa- rated states into a single expression; for example, 2 or 3 can be expressed as 23. If the and keyword is used, itruns checks for (and cre- ates, if necessary) two separate directories and places a link in each of them so that either state triggers execution of the file indepen- dently of the other state. If two or more files are specified for a single run-state argument, links are created for all of the files as indicated by the run-state argument. If two or more combinations of files and run states are specified as comma-separated expressions, itruns treats each combination individu- ally. RESTRICTIONS
The itruns command must be executed from the root directory (/). The command finds only files that are located in the /sbin/it.d/bin direc- tory. EXAMPLES
This example sets up the doconfig script to be run when the system is booted to run state 2: itruns doconfig in 2 Either of the command lines in this example sets up the doconfig and getdate scripts to be run when the system is booted to run state 2 or to run state 3: itruns doconfig getdate in 2 or 3 itruns doconfig getdate in 23 This example sets up the doconfig script to be run when the system is booted to run state 2 and again when the system comes to run state 3, the getdate script to be run only in run state 2, and the getsysname script to be run only in run state 3: itruns doconfig in 2 and 3, getdate in 2, getsysname in 3 SEE ALSO
