This section of the “config.sys” file specifies two RMS parameters: the IP address of the man-
aging RMS server, and which DACS directory to load on system boot. DACS system ethernet
card settings are handled in the [common] section.
DO NOT rename this “config.sys” heading.
With the exception of those listed here, DO NOT alter any of the lines under this heading,
unless specifically instructed by ASTi.
SET REMOTE=<ipAddress>
<ipAddress> is the IP address of the RMS server that will manage this DACS system.
Changing this setting in the DACS “config.sys” file will not change the IP address of the RMS
server itself.
SET MODELS=<directory>
<directory> is the directory that the Model Builder software will load as its “current working
directory” on system boot. For example, if this is set to “USER”, Model Builder will start
using:
C:\mbuilder\user\models
as the current working directory, and will load the file:
C:\mbuilder\user\models\default.cfg
as the Model Builder Application Configuration File.
Performing a DACS restoration via RMS will increase the number of candidate directories for
this setting. For example, a DACS restoration performed using a backup file generated on Jan-
uary 3, 2001, will create a directory on the DACS hard disk named:
C:\mbuilder\03jan01
Setting the “SET MODELS=” parameter to “03JAN01” will cause Model Builder to start
using:
C:\mbuilder\03jan01\models
as the current working directory, and will load the file:
C:\mbuilder\03jan01\models\default.cfg
as the Model Builder Application Configuration File. Remember, ethernet card hardware set-
tings specified in any “default.cfg” file will override similar settings in “config.sys”. After per-
forming a DACS restoration, it is important to verify that settings in the new “default.cfg” do
not override the system’s “config.sys” file.
IMPORTANT: Do not use a space either before or after the “=” symbol in any of the “con-
fig.sys” commands. Commands should be typed exactly as shown in this document.
