NonStop S78000 Server
Restrictions for the IOAM include:
•
For any site where an IOAM enclosure is installed, the NonStop S-series system
must be populated entirely by processors of type S76000 or higher.
•
The site must be equipped with an operational LAN and must have access to a
DHCP server, or to software that mimics one.
•
The version of OSM on your system must contain the SPRs for G06.24. For the
complete SPR list, see the OSM Migration Guide.
NonStop S78000 Server
The HP NonStop S78000 server is introduced at G06.24 and supports G06.16 and
later RVUs. It provides improved processor performance compared with the NonStop
S76000 server.
Model 1973 (S78000) PMF CRUs feature dual-inline memory modules (DIMMS) and
faster processors than earlier servers and can be ordered in these memory
configurations:
See the NonStop S-Series Planning and Configuration Guide for more information.
Migration
The NonStop S78000 server is introduced at G06.24 and supported on G06.16 and
later RVUs if the G06.24 SPRs for TSM or OSM are installed. See the G06.24
Software Installation and Upgrade Guide for more information.
The processor type for the NonStop S78000 server is NSR-H. For information on
upgrading to a model 1973 (NonStop S78000 S-series) PMF CRU (PMF 2 CRU), see
the CSSI Web site.
Any system in which S78000 processors are installed must have modular ServerNet
expansion boards (MSEBs) in slots 51 and 52 in enclosures 1 through 8. You can still
use ServerNet expansion boards (SEBs) to attach I/O enclosures. If you upgrade to an
S78000 processor from a system not using MSEBs in slots 51 and 52, you must
replace SEBs with MSEBs as part of the upgrade. All cabling previously used to
connect SEBs must be replaced with serial copper or fiber-optic ServerNet cables
specific to the MSEB. ECL ServerNet cables are specifically disallowed when installing
MSEBs for upgrading to model 1973 PMF CRUs.

Note. G06.24 OSM and TSM have been enhanced for the S78000 to extract and handle
S78000 hardware error freeze (HEF) scan strings and reset the CPU.
