load(8)load(8)Nameload - down-line load software to a target node
Syntax
/etc/load [ node ]
Description
The command loads software to an unattended target node. The target
node is loaded by the host that executes the command.
The command requires the identification of the service circuit over
which the load is performed, the Ethernet hardware address of the tar‐
get node, and the service password needed to gain access to the target.
This information is included in the nodes database entry for the target
node. A node entry is defined with the command. For further informa‐
tion, see The node is the name or address of the target node. A node
name consists of from one to six alphanumeric characters. For single
networks, a node address consists of a decimal integer (1-1023). For
multiple networks, a node address consist of two decimal integers
(n.n), where the first indicates the network number (1-63), and the
second indicates the node address (1-1023).
Options-p Uses the specified service and password (next arguments) in
accessing the target node. You can omit a target node's service
and password from the nodes database for security reasons, but you
must then specify the service and password in the command line by
using the option.
Examples
# /etc/load bangor -p 130fe
This command causes node to be loaded by the ULTRIX host node executing
the command. The ULTRIX host uses the load files specified in the
nodes database entry for node to perform the load.
