J06.04 Software Installation and Upgrade Guide

8 Loading the J06.04 RVU

This chapter describes how to perform a system load of the J06.04 RVU into the memory of each

processor in a NonStop BladeSystem.

NOTE: For detailed information on performing a system load of a NonStop BladeSystem, see

Chapter 15 in the NonStop Operations Guide.

By default, one $SYSTEM is already configured. You can select $SYSTEM, FCDM-Load, CLIM

Attached-Load, or an alternate system volume:

• A load from $SYSTEM attempts to load the system from a disk in group, module, slot 11.1.11

of a CLIM-attached I/O enclosure, by default. The $SYSTEM disks must contain the current

RVU operating system files for the NonStop BladeSystem. Table 13 and Table 14 show the

possible load paths in order of use for an FCDM-Load and a CLIM Attached-Load, respectively:
