After an upgrade, you need to inspect the .profile and dncsSetup files on the DNCS  

to determine how they reference the atm_addr environment variable. The following 

treatment of the atm_addr environment variable is required following an upgrade: 
• 

The .profile file must no longer contain a reference to the atm_addr environment 

variable. If the reference is there, you must either transform that line into a 

comment or delete the line. 

• 

The dncsSetup file must contain the following entry: atm_addr=dncsatm. If the 

atm_addr=dncseth entry exists in the dncsSetup file after an upgrade, you must 

edit it so that it becomes atm_addr=dncsatm. 

Follow these instructions to inspect the .profile on the DNCS for the presence of the 

atm_addr variable. 

 

1. 

If necessary, open an xterm window on the DNCS. 

2. 

Type cd and then press Enter. 
Result:  The home directory, /export/home/dncs, becomes the working 

directory. 

3. 

Type more  .profile and then press Enter. 
Result:  The .profile opens for viewing using the UNIX more utility. 

4. 

Examine the .profile file and look for an entry that contains atm_addr. 
Example:  export  atm_addr=dncseth
