System Console
A system console is an HP approved personal computer (PC) running maintenance and diagnostic
software for NonStop systems. When supplied with a new NonStop system, system consoles have
factory-installed HP and third-party software for managing the system. You can install software
upgrades from the HP NonStop System Console Installer DVD image.
Some system console hardware, including the Windows Server unit, monitor, and keyboard, can
be mounted in the Integrity NonStop NS16000 series modular cabinet. Other Windows Server
units are installed outside the modular cabinet and require separate provisions or furniture to hold
the Windows Server unit hardware.
Two system consoles, a primary and a backup, are recommended to manage NonStop systems.
Two CLuster I/O Modules (CLIMs) can be configured to run the DHCP, TFTP, and DNS
Windows-based services instead of the system consoles. For more information, see “DHCP, TFTP,
and DNS Windows-Based Services” (page 139).
