How You Install and Configure NFS Clients
You create and configure NFS client instances using the ingmknfs utility, rather than the install and setup programs.
The process for installing and configuring an NFS client is as follows:
1. Install the DBMS Server, Ingres Net, and Actian X tools components as a networked DBMS Server.
2. Run the ingmknfs utility to create the NFS client instances and configure the DBMS Server for NFS-client use (that is, create the NFS admin directory and related NFS-client files).
You can issue the ingmknfs command in either of the following ways:
• On each NFS client, individually. With this method, you can establish Ingres Net authorizations by responding to program prompts.
• On the DBMS Server installation only, using a parameter list of all the NFS client instances you want to set up. With this method, you must run the netutil utility on each NFS client to establish Ingres Net authorizations. You must establish an instance owner account that has the same numeric ID (UID) as the instance owner account on the DBMS Server.
