Table 1-1 Figure 1-1. Integrity NonStop NS14000 Server
Hardware Enclosures and Configurations
Enclosures that house specific hardware components in an Integrity NonStop NS14000 system
include:
• NonStop Blade Element
• Logical synchronization unit (LSU)
• Versatile I/O (VIO) enclosure
• Fibre Channel disk module (FCDM)
• Maintenance switch (Ethernet)
• Uninterruptible power supply (UPS) (optional)
• Extended runtime module (ERM) (optional)
A large number of enclosure combinations are possible within the modular cabinets of an Integrity
NonStop NS14000 server. The applications and purpose of any NonStop-NS series server
determine the number and combinations of the enclosures and modular cabinets.
Because of the large number of possible configurations, you calculate the total power consumption,
heat dissipation, and weight of each modular cabinet based on the hardware configuration that
you order from HP.
For site preparation specifications of the modular cabinet and the individual enclosures, see
Chapter 3 (page 23).
For examples of various combinations of enclosures installed in a modular cabinet, see Chapter 7
(page 99).
