Cpu System File - Panasonic WJ-MPU955A User Manual

Configuration

CPU System File

The system file (##A=sys.ini – where ## is the system unit ID number) resides on the
main system CPU, and contains information that is critical for proper operation. On
systems with a redundant CPU, it may be necessary to modify the system file on both of
the NSS CPUs individually, in order to maintain proper operation. DO NOT modify this
file unless instructed to do so by qualified technical support personnel.
MPU955A Admin Console allows an administrator to work with this file. When
instructed, follow the steps below for viewing, modifying, backing up, and restoring the
##A=sys.ini file.
For the purposes of this document, the system unit ID will be 01, so the CPU system file
name will be 01A=sys.ini.
System Transfer
When transferring a system file, the system file is written to the MPU955A Admin
Console computer's hard drive as "01A=sys.ini" and "01B=sys.ini" - depending on
which CPU this function was performed. In most cases, the system file(s) residing on the
MPU955A Admin Console computer's hard drive will be an exact duplicate(s) of the
file(s) being used on the system's CPU(s).
It is possible for the file on the local drive to differ from the one being used by the system,
when using the restore function. An administrator must be very careful when using the
backup and restore functions, as well as when retrieving and replacing the system file on
the CPU(s). It is very important that the administrator be aware of which CPU is being
updated.
Retrieving the System File from the Main CPU
1. Select CPU Units from the Domain menu
