retaining a single IP host image. If you use conventional TCP/IP (the NonStop TCP/IP
subsystem), you also benefit from the NonStop server architecture because you will
never encounter spin locks: each network interface receives independent processing
from its processor.
If you are migrating to the Integrity NonStop server from another platform and do not
have NonStop S-series servers in your environment, your networking options will be
restricted to Gigabit Ethernet and you should plan to migrate your applications to run
over TCP/IP, ServerNet WAN, X.25, and asynchronous WAN connections.
If you are migrating to the Integrity Nonstop server from the NonStop S-series server,
you can retain most of your existing networking solutions, including token ring and
ATM, but you will not be able to use IPX/SPX or ServerNet/FX directly. (However,
ServerNet/FX can provide inter connectivity between NonStop S-series servers and
NonStop K-series servers in an environment that includes Integrity NonStop servers.
See Figure 1-1, Connecting Legacy Systems With Integrity NonStop Servers, on
page 1-5.) If you are going to use token ring or ATM, you can run your applications on
the Integrity NonStop server and manage the subsystems for each of those protocols
on the Integrity NonStop server as well. You do not need to do anything to your
applications to make them run on the Integrity NonStop server but your hardware must
include a connection from the IOAM to the NonStop S-series I/O enclosure.
If you are using NonStop TCP/IPv6 and want to tune it by configuring the QIO
subsystem to run in the global privileged space, you can take advantage of the
Integrity NonStop server’s increase of this memory location to 256 MB. See the QIO
Configuration and Management Manual for information about how and when to make
this adjustment.
