G06.25 Release Version Update Compendium—529423-002
7-2
Migration
Model 1962 (S78SE) PMF FRUs 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 Central Office Server Installation and Service Guide for
more information.
Migration
The NonStop S78SE server is introduced at G06.25 and supported on G06.16 and
later RVUs if G06.24 SPRs for TSM or OSM are installed. See the G06.25 Software
Installation and Upgrade Guide for more information.
The NonStop S78SE server processor type is NSR-J. For information on upgrading to
a model 1962 (NonStop S78SE) PMF FRU (PMF 2 FRU), see the NonStop S-Series
Central Office Server Installation and Service Guide.
Before you upgrade to G06.24 or later RVUs, if your system includes processor model
1951 (NonStop S70000 or NonStop S70000SE), you must change the processor type
from NSR-G to NSR-C in the CONFTEXT file, ALLPROCESSORS statement. All other
references to NSR-G are still valid. Displays or queries done on the system return
NSR-G if the PMF is a model 1951 PMF CRU (NonStop S70000) or 1951 PMF FRU
(NonStop S70000SE).
After changing the CONFTEXT file, you must perform all required DSM/SCM requests
to create a new SYSnn, including the new processor type. System load of the new
SYSnn is required after the new hardware is installed.
Fallback
For fallback, you do not need to downgrade the SP firmware to its previous version. If
you are falling back to an RVU prior to G06.16, you must return processor boot code
(T7892) back to the previous version and update the firmware before performing a
system load of the previous RVU.
See the G06.25 Software Installation and Upgrade Guide for information.
NonStop S88000SE Server
The HP NonStop S88000SE server is introduced at G06.25 and supported in G06.24
and later RVUs. It provides improved processor performance compared with the
NonStop S86000SE server.
