To configure CMS using a flat file, you must edit a copy of the cms.inst.skl installation file and start the setup option of the cmssvc command.
Important:
This procedure is not necessary if you already configured CMS interactively.
Procedure
Use the following command to change to the CMS installation directory:
cd /cms/install/cms_install
Use the following command to make a copy of the CMS installation file:
cp cms.inst.skl cms.install
Use the following command to change permissions on the copied CMS installation file:
chmod 644 cms.install
Use the following command to edit the copied CMS installation file:
vi cms.install
The file contains a series of questions and value ranges for each possible ACD (Automatic Call Distribution system) in your configuration. Enter the appropriate values for your configuration. The entries must be added on the blank lines after each question.
Caution:
Use the CMS server host name for the Linux system name. The computer’s host name was assigned during network setup.
Press Esc.
Enter:
:wq!
The system saves and closes the file.
Example
For an example of a flat file that you will edit to set up CMS, see Example of a flat file.
