RVUs
This appendix discusses the differences between the ATP6100 subsystem on G-series
and H-series RVUs and the ATP6100 subsystem on D-series and earlier RVUs.
In addition to this appendix, the following conversion information is available to help
you:
The MIGSCF program can automatically convert to SCF any COUP commands
entered at the TACL prompt or found within a command or an OBEY file. MIGSCF
documentation can be found in the SCF Reference Manual for G-Series RVUs or
at $SYSTEM.ZMIGSCF.MANUAL, a read-only TEDIT file.
From within SCF, if you enter a COUP command, SCF displays information to help
you convert the command to its SCF equivalent.
WAN Subsystem
For D-series systems, the Dynamic System Configuration Utility Program (DSC/COUP)
is used to start, add, or delete ATP6100 lines.
For G-series and H-series RVUs, ATP6100 lines are defined and started by using the
Subsystem Control Facility (SCF) from the WAN subsystem. The WAN subsystem
SCF commands that are relevant to ATP6100 configuration are described in Section 3,
Configuring the ATP6100 Subsystem. For detailed information about the functions of
the WAN subsystem, refer to the WAN Subsystem Configuration and Management
Manual.
On NonStop S-series and Integrity NonStop NS-series, the WAN subsystem provides
the functions that the Configuration Utility Program (COUP) and SYSGEN provided on
the NonStop K-series servers. Specifically, the WAN subsystem allows you to:
Define ATP6100 lines and the modifiers that affect their operation
Start ATP6100 lines
Stop, alter, or delete ATP6100 lines
Monitor the ATP6100 line-handler processes and restart them if both the primary
and backup processes fail
Note. The ATP6100 subsystem subsystem is the same for G-series and H-series RVUs.
There are no H-series migration considerations for the ATP6100 subsystem.
