Migration Considerations
• Hardware Requirements:
— Two Advanced Cluster Hubs must be installed for fiber-optic connections.
— For NonStop BladeSystems, two ServerNet switches must be upgraded with all optical
transceivers.
— For NonStop NS16000 series systems, quad MMF PICs must be installed in slots seven
and nine of both p-switches.
• Software Requirements:
— All NonStop BladeSystem nodes in a BladeCluster Solution must be running J06.04 or
later J-series RVUs.
— All NonStop NS16000 series systems in a BladeCluster Solution must be running H06.14
or later H-series RVUs.
— For a complete list of software and firmware requirements, refer to the BladeCluster
Solution Release 1.1 Manual.
Fallback Considerations
Refer to the BladeCluster Solution Release 1.1 Manual for fallback topics specific to removing a
node, falling back to a previous RVU, and falling back for SPRs.
CLIM Time is Now Synchronized With NonStop Host Time
The time on the CLIM is now synchronized with the time on the NonStop host. CLIMs now run
with the local time of the NonStop host. Having these clocks synchronized aids in correlating
events that occur in the NonStop host with events that occur on the CLIM. This is especially
useful in debugging situations.
Migration Considerations
None.
Fallback Considerations
None.

iTP Secure WebServer 7.0 is enhanced with the following features:
• iTP Secure WebServer now supports the IPv6 addressing format.
• The keyadmin utility of the iTP Secure WebServer now allows the import or export of
