The INSTALL utility on a factory system load tape replaces a system's configuration files with a default configuration. These defaults allow the system manager or system supervisor to boot the system to a fully operational level. You should then alter the functioning configuration to meet your system's needs using SYSGEN.

START uses CONFIG as its default configuration group. Before a system can actually use the START command default to start the system, however, a functioning set of configuration files must reside in the configuration group CONFIG.

Since multiple configuration groups reside on a factory system load tape, CONFIG is empty on disk after an INSTALL until the system manager copies an appropriate configuration group into it using SYSGEN. The following is a list of appropriate configuration groups depending upon which HP e3000 system you are working with.

The next sections show portions of the default input and output (I/O) configurations as shown in Table D-1 “Default Configurations for the HP e3000”
