Configuring the Repository
Every server that boots to the SSTK environment must have access to the repository of
configuration files, scripts, utilities, OS files, driver files, and application files. The Linux boot
loader configuration file, which must be manually edited as described in Chapter 4 (page 34),
specifies the default location of the repository. It can be modified to specify a repository location
of your choosing thereby customizing the SSTK environment.
If you host the repository on the workstation, the repository must be accessible to the HP Integrity
servers being deployed. If, for example, your workstation is on a public network and the servers
are on a private isolated network, the SSTK cannot work. If you host the repository on a boot
device, be sure the device has enough capacity to hold both the SSTK environment and the OS.
