J06.06 Software Installation and Upgrade Guide

NOTE: See Support Note SN 12023 (OSM application issues with Administrator user on NSC)
for instructions on preventing authentication failures from occurring on NonStop System Consoles
when using these OSM tools: Down System CLIM Firmware Update, Update HSS and Copy HSS
file actions in OSM low-level link applications, and connecting to a peer NSC from the NonStop
Maintenance LAN DHCP DNS Configuration Wizard or the CLIM Boot Service Configuration
Wizard.
A fix of this problem is automatically installed when you run the Masterinstaller on NonStop System
Console Installer DVD, Update 18 or later. Support Note S 12023 describes another workaround
option if you do not have the Update 18 or later DVD.
To perform the CLIM Firmware upgrade when the system is halted, before halting the system, use
the OSM Service Connection and perform the Prepare for Down System CLIM Firmware Update
action, then use the Down System CLIM Firmware Update Tool. For more information, see the
Cluster I/O Protocols (CIP) Configuration and Management Manual.
Managing S-Series Interoperability Firmware
NOTE: See the NonStop Firmware Matrices for product levels. To find out if your NonStop system
supports interoperability with S-series systems, see the planning guide for your system.
