H06.14 Software Installation and Upgrade Guide

WARNING! If an H06.12 or later host system is used to perform DSM/SCM builds for a target
system that is running a release prior to H06.12, you must install the appropriate T0431 (OSBUILD)
SPR for that target system before performing the build. If this is not done, then the DSM/SCM
Sysgen (OSBUILD) will fail. The build will complete successfully if it is being done for an H06.12
or later system.
The appropriate T0431 SPRs are:
Target System RVUSPR
H06.10 and H06.11T0431H01^AAK
H06.09T0431H01^AAH
H06.08T0431H01^AAN
H06.07T0431H01^AAM
H06.05 and H06.06T0431H01^AAL
Any H06.12 or later RVU attempting to build an RVU prior to H06.12 must install these SPRs.
DSM/SCM and Public DLLs
In H-series RVUs, DSM/SCM manages and controls the distribution, installation, and activation of
public DLLs on NonStop NS-series servers similarly to the way DSM/SCM handles public SRLs on
NonStop S-series systems. Public DLLs are installed on the H-series target systems in their own
subvolume.
Starting with the G06.18 RVU, a new configuration file, A7CINFO, is introduced for managing
OSS files. To manage OSS files in H-series RVUs, use the T6031H01 or later PVU. The
corresponding client version or Planner Interface must also be installed. For H06.14, the PVU for
the client is T6031G02/H02 and the PVU for the server side is T6031H02. (In H-series RVUs, the
T6030 product version has been obsoleted and does not appear on the SUT.)
DSM/SCM and OSS
When performing a Build/Apply, ensure that the setting of the Manage OSS Files option matches
with your target system. If the target system is not to use OSS, you must uncheck the OSS files
option box before beginning a Build request. If the box is left checked, OSS is included by the
Build request. The OSS root fileset needs to be configured and started before files can be copied
into the OSS file system by DSM/SCM. For OSS users who request HP to install OSS, it is assumed
that OSS is installed and configured. However, the OSS root fileset ($ZPNS) must be in the started
state; otherwise, the Build/Apply fails.
Upgrading the DSM/SCM Client (Planner Interface) and the T6031H02 PVU
To upgrade the DSM/SCM client, if you did not order new system consoles, the DSM/SCM client
version must be downloaded from the ZDSMSCM subvolume. (If you have acquired new system
consoles, the most up-to-date DSM/SCM client is already installed.) To download the client version
(Planner Interface) from ZDSMSCM to a separate console or your current console, follow the client
or Planner Interface installation instructions in the DSM/SCM User’s Guide or Appendix B, Installing
SWID, DSM/SCM PVU, and Planner Interface (PI) Client Software.
