Remote Database Facility (RDF)
T0294AAP is required on all S-series nodes if these nodes are not already running the
minimum required T0294AAP SPR or a subsequent SPR. Failure to install the
minimum T0294AAP SPR on the S-series nodes prevents those nodes from
successfully discovering Integrity NonStop NS-series server nodes and vice-versa,
thereby preventing the establishment of Expand-over-ServerNet lines between
S-series and H-series server nodes.
T0294AAP can be installed online and does not require a system load.
Remote Database Facility (RDF)
The version of the NonStop Remote Database Facility (RDF, T0346) on H06.05 is
compatible only with the AAZ SPR of RDF on NonStop S-series systems.
HP Tandem Failure Data System (TFDS)
HP Tandem Failure Data System (TFDS) is available on the NonStop Series TNS/E
platform and provides hardware, software, and subsystem failure analysis and
automated processor reload and dump capabilities.
•
For Integrity NonStop NS-series servers, TFDSCOM commands have been
introduced, existing commands have been modified, and some commands have
been eliminated. For example, the fast memory dump (FMD) that is ON by default
in G06.nn RVUs is not available on TNS/E platforms.
•
For new tokens and messages, EMS templates are adapted for Integrity NonStop
NS-series servers.
For more information on new commands and options, see the Interactive Upgrade
Guide 2, and the TFDS Programmer’s Guide.
TMF 3.3
The H06.05 RVU introduces HP NonStop Transaction Management Facility (TMF) 3.3.
If you do not use any new configurable features after migrating to TMF 3.3, falling back
to the RVU from which you migrated is not a problem. If you use the new TMF 3.3
feature that allows you to add auxiliary audit trails while TMF is started, however, you
must first understand how that impacts any subsequent fallback. For H06.05 TMF 3.3
fallback and migration issues, see the H06.05 Release Version Update Compendium
and the TMF Planning and Configuration Guide.
The products T8697 (the older product version update of ARLIB) and T8923
(TIFSERVE) are not included in H-series RVUs. T8697 is being replaced by T2781
(ARLIB2). For more information, see the H06.05 Release Version Update
Compendium and appropriate TMF softdocs.
TS/MP 2.1
The H06.05 RVU introduces HP NonStop TS/MP 2.1. TS/MP 2.1 provides Pathsend
users with higher link capacity to client processes. TS/MP 2.1 is intended solely for
