I uderstatd, I mean that is possible write software that can do this.
I mean that whith envctrl driver is possible write some data back to RSC memory
area. Am I right ?
I am not sure-- overwriting the static configuration data may not take
effect until the RSC is reset (I cannot confirm this; I've not tried).
It would be preferable to determine the interface used by rscadm and
make use of it.
