H06.25 Software Installation and Upgrade Guide

H06.20
This section describes changes to default behavior introduced by new features at H06.20. For a
complete list of new features, migration issues and fallback considerations, see the H06.20 Release
Version Update Compendium.
SQL/MX 2.3.4 Requires JDBC T2 Driver
JDBC T2 Driver must be installed on H06.20 and later H-series RVUs to support SQL/MX 2.3.4.
SQL/MX 2.3.4 requires interoperability SPRs. See “Install Node Interoperability SPRs” (page 74)
for more information.
H06.21
NonStop SOAP 4
NonStop SOAP 4 migration issues exist for NonStop SOAP 3 to NonStop SOAP 4 upgrades. See
the H06.21 Release Version Update Compendium for a list of migration issues and workarounds.
New Cluster I/O Module (CLIM) Storage Devices
HP introduces (controlled availability) support for next-generation CLIMs and storage devices. The
new CLIMs and storage devices require H06.17 and later J-series RVUs. All software required for
these components is included with the H06.21 RVU.
See the planning guide for your system for information about the CLIMs and storage devices.
The new devices require the H06.17 or later H-series RVU. If you must fall back to an earlier RVU,
you cannot use the new CLIMs or SAS disk enclosures. If you fall back to an RVU between H06.17
and H06.20 inclusive, you must add SPRs to those RVUs to support the new CLIMs and disk
enclosures because falling back to a previous RVU removes the required software. For a list of
required SPRs for these components, see the CLuster I/O Module (CLIM) Software Compatibility
Reference.
The next-generation CLIMs and storage devices only work with each other. They cannot be mixed
with the previous generation CLIMs and storage devices.
Other CLIM and CIP Changes
The Telco CLIM now supports CLIM failover.
The H06.21 RVU also includes new features to solve the issue of CLIMs trying to send data on
down-link-pulse interfaces and to provide more control over routing.
CIP now supports audit logging for commands executed on a CLIM using CLIMCMD.
See the Cluster I/O Protocols (CIP) Configuration and Management Manual for more information
about these features.
New Operating System Features
H06.21 adds several new operating system features, most of which have migration and fallback
issues. See the H06.21 Release Version Update Compendium for more information about these
features.
TMF 3.6
Fallback considerations exist for TMF 3.6 enhancements. See the H06.21 Release Version Update
Compendium for more information.
