K-Series to S-Series Differences

NonStop System Console
Map: K-Series to S-Series Differences.
The HP NonStop system console provides a preconfigured workstation for the purpose
of control, status, monitoring, and remote access of one or more S-series systems.
The system console provides OSM or TSM user interface applications for system
maintenance and serviceability. User interfaces are also provided for system operator
functions and for retrieving online documents.
For fault tolerance, two system consoles are recommended per NonStop S-series
system site; one system console can provide console functions for more than one
NonStop S-series system, and one system console must be configured per subnet to
provide dial-in capabilities from a support center.
Although the applications that are hosted on the system console can be hosted on a
variety of workstations from various suppliers, a specific configuration is provided to
ensure a working environment for the critical functions. From a configuration and
support standpoint, it is desirable that a well-known configuration be used.
