Integrity NonStop NS-series Server Supplement Requirements for Clustering Requirements for Clustering Configuring an Integrity NonStop NS-series system for inclusion in a ServerNet cluster requires a minimum level of software, hardware, and firmware.
Software Requirements Integrity NonStop NS-series Server Supplement • • ° Integrity NonStop NS14000 systems with an IOAM enclosure require the H06.05 RVU, which includes all required SPRs. ° Integrity NonStop NS14000 series systems with VIO enclosures require the H06.08 RVU, which includes all required SPRs. Depending on your cluster configuration, you might also need to install G-series software on any NonStop S-series nodes in the ServerNet cluster (see Table 1-1).
Hardware Requirements Integrity NonStop NS-series Server Supplement Hardware Requirements For hardware requirements for Integrity NonStop NS-series systems to be connected to a BladeCluster, refer to the BladeCluster Solution Manual. At least two 6770 switches or 6780 switches (one for the X fabric and one for the Y fabric) are required. A cable management assembly is required for each 6780 switch. The switches must be installed and powered on.
