Transferring data from the node to the server 
 
Once the server and the node have been created, the data can be transferred from the node to the server. It is advisable to check node availability in the network before starting this action.
In the case of offline generation, the data is already available on the server and thus does not have to be transferred.  

Checking node availability with PING  
Check the availability of the HIP (HiPath) and the IP address of the HG 1500 card using the PING command.
PING is called up from the command line level in the server PC.
 1.   Start the DOS prompt via the Start menu in the Windows operating system.
 2.   Enter PING followed by the IP address, e.g.
PING 198.6.101.52
If error messages are output in the course of PING execution, check the IP entries of the communication system and the HG 1500 card and the cables and connectors.  

Transferring data  
Data transfer is performed at the server PC via the HiPath 3000 Manager.
 1.   Select the function File | HiPath 5000 RSM/AllServe | Transfer | HiPath 5000 RSM/AllServe Server.
The Transfer HiPath 5000 RSM/AllServe Server dialog box appears.
The name of the HiPath 5000 AllServe server is entered in the Server field.
 2.   Click the button System -> Server
. The CDB data is transferred to the server.

Searching for the server  
You can search for the server if the wrong or no name is entered for it in the Server field. In this case, the transfer is not started until the correct server is set.
The name of the server can also be entered directly in the Server field.  
 1.   Click the Browse button.
The Find Computer list appears.
 2.   Select the required server PC and then start the data transfer operation.
