QL 4222
Chapter 8 - QL Files


Directory Tree

The QL installation utility installs many files on the designated file server. A directory tree of these files is included below (separate trees are provided for the QL 3000 Series and the QL 4000 Series products). A brief description of files requiring explanation is provided. A listing of the key configuration files is included later in this chapter

NOTE: For the QL 3001 and QL 3002, the command /m:6 must be appended to the command to load himem.sys as follows:

device=himem.sys /testmem:off /m:6

The line is correct in the in the SYS:CUBIX/QL3000/IMAGE30/VLM/CONFIG.SYS file. The file above represents the CONFIG.SYS file in the SYS:/CUBIX/QL3000/IMAGE32/VLM directory.

Note: The "/y" switch on the emm386 command is a Microsoft Windows switch. If Windows is run on the QL workstation and the "/y" switch is not specified, Windows will load in standard mode. The "/y" switch must be specified is Windows is to run in enhanced mode on the QL workstation. If Windows will not be run on the QL workstation, the "/y" switch can be left on the emm386 command line (it will not cause any problems).

A copy of emm386.sys must exist in the path specified by the "/y" switch (f:\login in the file listed above).

QLUSER.BAT or QLUSRxxx File

In addition to the CONFIG.SYS, AUTOEXEC, QLxBOOT.BAT, and NET.CFG files, the QL user file (QLUSER.BAT or QLUSRxxx.BAT) is also part of the remote boot process. Unlike the other files, the QL user file is not included in the image file. The last thing that the image file will do is to execute the QL user file, which must be located in the LOGIN directory on the designated server.

The purpose of the QL user file is to provide an easy way for the system installer to invoke applications from a QL workstation without having to modify the image file. This is accomplished by invoking the application from the QL user file.

If all QL processors booting from this designated server will invoke the same application at boot time, they can share a single QL user file (QLUSER.BAT). However, in certain installations some QL nodes may need to invoke different applications than other QL nodes. This is accomplished by using the QLUSRxxx.BAT file, where xxx represents the QL node number.

NOTE: To determine the node number, run QLVision, select the appropriate QL Supervisor, and then run the QL Node Functions option from the Main Menu. The node numbers will be displayed.

When a QL processor boots, it executes the QL3BOOT.BAT or QL4BOOT.BAT file, which will search the LOGIN directory for a QLUSRxxx.BAT file with xxx set to the node number of the booting processor. If a match is found, the QLUSRxxx.BAT file is executed; otherwise, QLUSER.BAT is executed.

For example, if the LOGIN directory on the designated server contains both a QLUSR001.BAT file and a QLUSER.BAT file, the QL processor configured as node 1 will execute QLUSR001.BAT at boot time, while all other QL processors booting from this file server will execute QLUSER.BAT.

The QLUSRxxx.BAT file should be created by copying the default QLUSER.BAT file and then modifying QLUSRxxx as necessary.

NOTE: designated server will be replaced by the name of the designated server specified during QL installation.

NOTE: If the Cubix Management System (CMS) is to manage the QL workstation, the TrapInterval specifies the number of seconds between status messages generated by the QL workstation. Do not modify this setting without first consulting the CMS documentation.

NOTE: The installation utility will set the QL Supervisor IPX Address to the address of the QL Supervisor NLM if the QL boards are installed in the backplane of the designated server. If the QL boards are installed in another device, set this field to the IPX address of the QL Supervisor NLM installed on the server or MPR containing the QL processor. Instructions for setting this field are included in Chapter 2 - Installation.

NOTE: If the Cubix Management System (or another SNMP compliant management system) is to manage the QL workstation, the trap target must be set to the IPX address of the management console.

The QL4000.BAT file installed on the hard drive is the same as the SYS:CUBIX/QL4000/HDDRV/QL4000.HD file on the designated server.

QL 3000 OS/2 Local Boot Files

CONFIG.SYS

The CONFIG.SYS file installed on the hard drive is a standard OS/2 CONFIG.SYS file. Only the parts of the file that pertain to the QL driver are listed below.

Appended to LIBPATH should be: C:\NETWARE;

Appended to PATH should be:C:\NETWARE;L:\OS2;P:\OS2;

Appended to DPATH should be:C:\NETWARE;L:\OS2;P:\OS2;

The command to load the MOUSE.SYS device driver should be replaced with the following: DEVICE=C:\OS2\CBXMOUSE.SYS

The CONFIG.SYS file should also contain the following lines. Depending upon options selected during the NetWare Workstation for OS/2 installation, some of the lines indicated as commented out (with the rem statement) may not be commented out in the actual CONFIG.SYS file on the hard drive.

CONFIG.SYS

The CONFIG.SYS file installed on the hard drive is a standard OS/2 CONFIG.SYS file. The QL specific parts of the CONFIG.SYS file for the QL 4000 Series products are the same as previously described for the QL 3000, except that the device driver loaded is QL4_OS2.SYS instead of QL3_OS2.SYS.
