Overview of Installing the H06.03
RVU
This section introduces the basic installation tools and requirements for H-series
RVUs, including installing the site update tape (SUT) for an release version update
revision (RVUR). For information on installing software product revisions (SPRs), see
Appendix A, Using DSM/SCM to Install SPRs.
Disk Space Requirements
The maximum site update tape (SUT) with all standard products, plus all optional
products available to customers, contains approximately 8 gigabytes (GB) of data,
depending on optional products (however, actual disk space required can be much
greater).
Operational Differences Between the H06.03
and G-series RVUs
For planning purposes, the following list represents known differences.
•
TAPEBOOT is not supported on H-series RVUs. You cannot make a system image
tape (SIT).
•
In H-series, compilers and linkers have new names. Therefore, automated scripts
require changing.
•
The subvolume for public libraries is SYSnn in G-series. In H-series, it is ZDLLnnn.
•
For H-series, DSM/SCM installation default is to manage OSS Files. For G-series,
the default is not to manage OSS files. For OSS users who request HP
manufacturing to install OSS, it is assumed that OSS is installed and configured.
•
For H06.03, tape storage on the HP Integrity NonStop NS-series system supplies
both Fibre Channel (FC) and SCSI tape products. Tape devices can be directly
connected to an HP Integrity NonStop NS-series server in two ways:
°
Fibre channel tape devices can be connected directly to a Fibre Channel
ServerNet adapter (FCSA) in an IOAM enclosure.
°
SCSI tape devices can be connected through a T1200 FC to SCSI Converter
device (model M8201), which enables connection to SCSI tape drives. For
installation instructions, see the M8201 Fibre Channel to SCSI Router
Installation and User’s Guide.
