J06.13 Software Installation and Upgrade Guide

Using OSM With This RVU
OSM Server-Based Component
The server-based OSM SPR released with this RVU is T0682H02^ACV. This version may be
superseded by a later version. For highlights of this server version, see the J06.13 Release Version
Update Compendium or the OSM Service Connection User’s Guide, which is also available as
online help with the OSM Service Connection. For detailed information about the OSM server-based
component, including configuration options, see the OSM Configuration Guide.
NOTE: HP recommends that you use the latest OSM SPRs, irrespective of that was shipped on
your SUT.
OSM Client-Based Components
OSM client-based component upgrades are delivered on the NonStop System Console Installer
DVD. HP recommends upgrading to the very latest console software available.
The OSM client-based products are:
• OSM Low-Level Link (T0633), which is used to provide down-system support and allows you
to communicate with your HP NonStop server even when the NonStop Kernel operating system
is not running. In addition to performing the system loads, it is used to configure VIO and
other modules, configure CLIMs, and update CLIM software. For information about other
features and functionality, see the OSM Configuration Guide and the OSM Low-Level Link
online help.
• OSM Console Tools (T0634), which installs a variety of tools, including the Down System
CLIM Firmware Update Tools and the NonStop Maintenance LAN DHCP DNS Configuration
Wizard. For detailed information about these tools and other OSM Console Tools features,
see the OSM Configuration Guide
Using DSM/SCM and NonStop Software Essentials With This RVU
NonStop Software Essentials and This RVU
The HP NonStop Software Essentials product is a software installation and management tool for
NonStop servers. NonStop Software Essentials uses DSM/SCM server software and provides a
replacement for DSM/SCM Planner Interface functions as well as certain Host Maintenance Interface
functions that is more secure, easier to use, and overcomes other shortcomings of DSM/SCM. It
coexists with DSM/SCM; you can use either NonStop Software Essentials or the DSM/SCM Planner
Interface for tasks in which there is overlapping functionality. For more information, see the NonStop
Software Essentials Installation and Quick Start Guide and the NonStop Software Essentials User's
Guide.
These rules apply:
• The NonStop Software Essentials server (T0894) and NonStop Software Essentials client
(T0895 or T0996) components installed on a system must both be the same NonStop System
Essentials release (1.0 or 2.0).
• The SUTs for J06.13 RVU and all later J-series RVUs contain the T0894H02 NonStop Software
Essentials server. The SUTs for J06.13 and earlier RVUs did not provide the NonStop Software
Essentials server, so you must install the T0894H02 SPR from Scout for these RVUs.
• You cannot use the DSM/SCM Planner Interface on systems with 64-bit NonStop system
consoles. If you have a 64-bit NonStop system console but do not have the NonStop Software
Essentials server installed on your system, you must manually install the server as described
in the NonStop Software Essentials Installation and Quick Start Guide.
