Hardware Enclosures and Configurations
This figure shows an example modular cabinet with a duplex processor and hardware
for a complete system (rear view).
A large number of enclosure combinations are possible within the modular cabinets
that make up an Integrity NonStop NS-series server. The applications and purpose of
any NonStop-NS series server determine the number and combinations of the
enclosures and modular cabinets.
