Service Processor I/O Library

The service processor I/O library is a collection of functions that provide a number of

low-level and operating system independent services for NonStop systems. The library

comprises a server-side component and various client-side components that request

SP or processor switch maintenance entity services using service processor I/O library

function calls. The service processor I/O library is enhanced to support TNS/E

functions.

TCP/IP, TCP/IPv6, and Socket Library

These products contain no new functionality for the H06.03 RVU. Parallel Library

TCP/IP is not migrated to the TNS/E platform. The Parallel Library TCP/IP features and

functions have been incorporated into the HP NonStop TCP/IPv6 product, which

supports IPv4 and IPv6.

IPv6 is available on the Integrity NonStop server in the NonStop TCP/IPv6 product.

You can run the NonStop TCP/IPv6 subsystem in INET mode (IPv4 communications

only), INET6 mode (IPv6 communications only), or DUAL mode (both IPv4 and IPv6

communications). Because of the powerful, parallel TCP/IP architecture of the NonStop

TCP/IPv6 product, consider using it even if you want only IPv4 communications. In this

case, simply configure the NonStop TCP/IPv6 subsystem in INET mode. For more

information about IPv6 on the Integrity NonStop server, see the TCP/IPv6

Configuration and Management Manual.

TNet Services

The TNet Services product (T8460) provides APIs and services to the NonStop system

for managing the processor's interface to the ServerNet SAN.

Note. The HP naming conventions for the G4SA, TCP/IP, LISTNER, and TELSERV

processes and some network components have changed for the H06.03 RVU. For more

information, see the LAN Configuration and Management Manual or the WAN Configuration

and Management Manual.
