Overview
The H-series runs on the new Itanium processor-based TNS/E NonStop servers. The Itanium
processor is a member of the Intel Itanium Process Family of processors that implement the
IA-64 architecture. Differences between the H-series and G-series are due mainly to
architectural differences between the Tandem NonStop MIPs platform (TNS/R) and Tandem
NonStop Itanium Processor based platform (TNS/E) hardware platforms. The Itanium processor
uses a different instruction set at the hardware level.
In most respects, the H-series NonStop Tuxedo is similar to the G-series NonStop Tuxedo.
Differences in the G-series and H-series development environments include:
All H-series libraries are dynamic-link libraries (DLLs). Shared run-time libraries (SRLs)
are not supported. The server and client application programs on the NonStop platform
must be rebuilt to run using the DLLs.
TNS/R native object files cannot run on a TNS/E platform. All TNS/R native programs
must be recompiled using a TNS/E native compiler. That is, all NonStop Tuxedo
applications need to be recompiled to run on the H-series system.
Running in a Non-Standard Location
If NonStop Tuxedo is installed in a non-standard location:
The exported shell variable _RLD_LIB_PATH must be set when running NonStop
Tuxedo programs and include the path $TUXDIR/lib.
The _RLD_LIB_PATH name and value must be in the ENV file used by NonStop
Tuxedo to start servers.
