HP Integrity NonStop NS16200 Server
The HP Integrity NonStop NS16200 server is introduced in the H06.11.02 RVU. It provides the
same functionality as a NonStop NS16000 server with improved system performance.
The NonStop NS16200 server includes standard Intel Itanium microprocessors.
For more information, see the NonStop NS16000-Series Planning Guide.
Migration
The NonStop NS16200 server is introduced and supported at the H06.11.02 and later RVUs.
The processor type for the NonStop NS16200 server is NSE-T.
Upgrade Considerations
• All NonStop Blade Elements (NSBEs) in a NonStop Blade Complex must have the same
number and type of microprocessors.
• NSE-T and NSE-A Blade Complexes can co-exist in the same system if the H06.11.02 (or
later) RVU is installed.
• An NSE-T Blade Complex can be added online to an existing system if the H06.11.02 (or
later) RVU is installed.
• No changes to the CONFTEXT file are required.
For information on upgrading to a NonStop NS16200 server, authorized service providers can
see the Support and Service collection in NTL (navigate to Service Procedures > NonStop NS-Series
Hardware.)
