If Necessary, Manually Install the NonStop Software Essentials Server
Product
HP recommends use of NonStop Software Essentials instead of the Planner Interface for upgrading
your RVU. In addition to NonStop Software Essentials being the go-forward strategy, the Planner
Interface is not supported on 64-bit NonStop system consoles.
Systems running J06.13 or a later J-series RVU obtain the NonStop Software Essentials server
component (T0894H02) from the SUT.
If the NonStop Software Essentials server is not yet installed on your system or you want to upgrade
from T0894H01 to T0894H02, you can install the latest server via SPR from Scout or use your
installed NonStop Software Essentials software or the DSM/SCM Planner Interface to install the
T8092H02 server.
NOTE: You cannot use or run DSM/SCM with the Planner Interface to install the NonStop Software
Essentials server on systems with 64-bit NonStop system consoles. If you have 64-bit NonStop
system consoles only but do not have the NonStop Software Essentials server installed, you must
manually install the server and the other NonStop Server Essentials software. The NonStop Software
Essentials Installation and Quick Start Guide describes the procedure for manually installing the
T0894H02 NonStop Software Essentials component and identifies in detail the circumstances
under which manual installation of the components would need to be performed.
See the NonStop Software Essentials Installation and Quick Start Guide for all of the NonStop
Software Essentials server installation procedures, including the manual procedure. See the NonStop
Software Essentials User’s Guide for detailed information about the product.
