HP Integrity NonStop NB50000c BladeSystem
The Integrity NonStop NB50000c BladeSystem provides an integrated infrastructure with
consolidated server, network, power, and management capabilities. The NonStop NB50000c
BladeSystem implements the HP Integrity c7000 BladeSystem and is optimized for enterprise
data center applications.
The NonStop NB50000c BladeSystem combines the NonStop operating system and up to 8 HP
Integrity NonStop BL860c Server Blades in a single footprint as part of the NonStop Multicore
Architecture (NSMA). The NSMA achieves full software fault tolerance by interfacing with the
ServerNet fabrics and running the NonStop operating system on NonStop server blades.
The NonStop NB50000c BladeSystem supports IOAM enclosures.
For details, see the NonStop BladeSystem Planning Guide.
