J06.07 Software Installation and Upgrade Guide

In addition, these changes were made:
• Scout for NonStop Servers was added as a possible source for CLuster I/O Module (CLIM)
software. See “CLIM Software for This RVU” (page 15).
• Most firmware levels have been moved to the NonStop Firmware Matrices document. This
change is reflected in Chapter 2: “Managing Microcode and Firmware” (page 23).
• A clarification was made to “AF_UNIX Release 2 Migration and Fallback” (page 32).
• The “Install Node Interoperability SPRs” (page 48) was extensively rewritten.
• A new note was added to “Run the inetd Process” (page 97).
• A correction was made to “Complete CLIM Setup” (page 125). You must be logged onto the
NonStop host system as SUPER.SUPER, not just as a SUPER group user, to run SSOCLIM.
NOTE: This changed again in a later edition. See the changes made to 538129-005.
• A caution and steps were added to ensure you have a backup of $SYSTEM before applying
the new RVU:
◦ “Preparing to Upgrade the Server Software (Preinstallation Tasks)” (page 40). See “Back
Up System Information” (page 50).
◦ “Build and Apply the New Software Revision” (page 57).
◦ “Resuming Normal Operations” (page 93). See “Revive the Down Half of the Mirrored
Disk” (page 93).
• This alert was removed from “Loading This RVU” (page 84): If you do not select a $SYSTEM
volume, you must revive the mirrored disk.
What This Guide Does Not Cover
• Changes from G-series RVUs. Differences between G-series and J-series RVUs are the same
as for H-series RVUs. For information on differences between G-series and H-series RVUs, see
the H06.nn Software Installation and Upgrade Guide.
• System migration planning. System-wide issues involved in migrating to the latest J-series RVU
are covered in:
◦ The J06.nn Release Version Update Compendium for this RVU
◦ The Interactive Upgrade Guide 2 (IUG2)
• Installing a J-series RVU from a host system to a remote or separate network-connected target
system using an Expand connection or tape. See the DSM/SCM User’s Guide for information
on setting up target systems.
• Installing and configuring OSS.
• Upgrading HP NonStop System Console workstation applications. To install or upgrade HP
and third-party system console client software, such as OSM client-based components, see
the NonStop System Console Installer Guide.
• Installing and configuring OSM server components. To install and configure OSM server
components, and start using client-based components, see the OSM Migration and
Configuration Guide.
• Installing, configuring, and migrating to HP NonStop SQL/MX. The SQL/MX Installation and
Management Guide provides step-by-step instructions for installing and configuring NonStop
SQL/MX. Migrating a G-series NonStop SQL/MX or NonStop SQL/MP database to a J-series
RVU and falling the database back to G-series RVUs is the same as for migrating to an H-series
