Overview of Installing the H06.05
RVU
This section introduces the basic installation tools and requirements in H-series RVUs,
including installing the site update tape (SUT) for an release version update revision
(RVUR). For information on installing software product revisions (SPRs), see
Appendix A, Using DSM/SCM to Install SPRs.
Disk Space Requirements
The maximum SUT with all standard products, plus all optional products available to
customers, contains approximately 8 gigabytes (GB) of data, depending on optional
products (however, actual disk space required can be much greater).
Operational Differences Between the H06.05
and G-series RVUs
For planning purposes, the following list represents known differences.
•
TAPEBOOT is not supported in H-series RVUs. You cannot make a system image
tape (SIT).
•
In H-series RVUs, native compilers and linkers have new names. Therefore,
automated scripts require changing.
•
The subvolume for public libraries is SYSnn in G-series RVUs. In H-series RVUs, it
is ZDLLnnn.
•
In H-series RVUs, DSM/SCM installation default is to manage OSS files. In
G-series RVUs, the default is not to manage OSS files. For OSS users who
request HP manufacturing to install OSS, it is assumed that OSS is installed and
configured.
•
In the H06.05 RVU, tape storage on the HP Integrity NonStop NS-series system
supplies both Fibre Channel (FC) and SCSI tape products. Tape devices can be
directly connected to an HP Integrity NonStop NS-series server in two ways:
°
Fibre channel tape devices can be connected directly to a Fibre Channel
ServerNet adapter (FCSA) in an IOAM enclosure.
°
SCSI tape devices can be connected through a T1200 FC to SCSI Converter
device (model M8201), which enables connection to SCSI tape drives. For
installation instructions, see the M8201 Fibre Channel to SCSI Router
Installation and User’s Guide.
