Cplant host file

The cplant-host file lists the physical node number of the node on which the bebopd is running. It must be accessible from every node on which yod, pingd or a PCT is running, since all these processes need to contact the bebopd .

The cplant-host file also lists the location of fyod file servers on systems using fyod.

Here is an example:

# This file specifies which nodes offers certain services.
# The bebopd format is:
# bebopd node_name1 [node_name2 ... [node_nameN]]
# The fyod format is:
# fyod unit_no node_id

bebopd  31              #bebopd on c-7.SU-3
fyod 010 9
fyod 011 9
fyod 020 10
fyod 021 10

At runtime, the default location of the cplant-host file may be changed by setting the environment variable CPLANT_HOST_FILE to the path name of the cplant-host file. Alternatively you can add an entry to the site file.
