NAME
dlmpcc - download MPCC
SYNOPSIS
dlmpcc [ n ]
DESCRIPTION
Dlmpcc downloads CCI's Multi-Protocol Communication Controller (MPCC). The controller provides high-speed synchronous communications for the \s-1POWER 5\s+1 and \s-1POWER 6\s+1 families of computers. This utility allows you to download any or all of the MPCC boards. The configuration file mpcctab determines the protocol attributes for each MPCC board. See mpcctab(4) for details.

If you specify the command with no argument, then dlmpcc scans the configuration file and downloads all configured boards with corresponding protocol software. The option n allows you to specify one or more MPCC boards for downloading. The valid values range from 0-15. For example, the following command line orders dlmpcc to download only the protocol software identified with board 2:


 dlmpcc 2

The next command line orders the download of the protocols identified with boards 0 and 3:

 dlmpcc 0 3

Typically, this download function is performed at boot time from the /etc/rc.local file with an entry similar to:

 /etc/dlmpcc > /dev/console 2>&1
