OSM Enhancements
OSM Service Connection
OSM Service Connection introduces a new guided procedure, the OSM Data Sanitization Guided
Procedure, which provides a simple and secure method for erasing all data from disk drives that
are to be retired from service. The procedure can be used to sanitize any SCSI, FC, SAS, or
CLIM-attached disks.
OSM Low-Level Link
The OSM Low-Level Link CLIM preparation support is enhanced to include INS Software Update,
which is used for Telco CLIMs only.
Measure Enhancements
New Counters for AF_UNIX R2 Support
Measure supports AF_UNIX by adding new counters to the OSSCPU entity to reflect Local Server
2 activity. Local Server 2 replaces the NonStop Local Server process. Local Server 2 is a group of
processes that handle all local OSS socket operations. Local Server 2 takes over much of the
AF_UNIX function handled by the Transport Agent. The Transport Agent still exists primarily
for legacy AF_INET functions.
Measure Limits Will Increase as New Features Become Available
Beginning with the H06.17 RVU, Measure will support higher limits for new features as the
features become available. This change will:
• Enable MEASFH to produce large structured files derived from large measurement data
files
• Relieve internal MEASCOM stack/memory limits and improve performance
• Increase limits on MEASCTL CID table size and resulting counter space
