NonStop SQL/MX Release 2.0 (G06.23, G06.24,
and G06.25)
NonStop SQL/MX Release 2.0 (G06.23, G06.24, and G06.25)
See the G06.23 Release Version Update Compendium, the Interactive Upgrade Guide,
and the SQL/MX Installation and Management Guide for more information about
migrating to SQL/MX Release 2.0. See also the SQL/MX Comparison Guide for
SQL/MP Users and the T0650ABA softdoc, which is the master softdoc for software
components included in SQL/MX Release 2.0, and the T7969ABA ODBC/MX Services
Softdoc.
SQL/MX Release 2.0 delivers the newly architected, standards-based SQL/MX tables
for NonStop servers. SQL/MX Release 2.0 provides general availability support for
operations against SQL/MP tables. G06.25 includes the set of "ABA" SPRs that were
released as early product delivery for SQL/MX support of MX tables between G06.24
and G06.25. This set of SPRs provides defect repair for MP tables and some new
features for MX tables. Changes have also been made to EMS templates; these
templates will be installed as part of the normal installation process.
Note. SQL/MX Release 2.0 requires processors that support IEEE floating-point functions. All
processors in a node on which SQL/MX Release 2.0 is installed must be Model 1954 (S72000)
or newer. A processor halt%005101 can result when one or more processors in a system do
not meet the minimum hardware requirements for installing SQL/MX Release 2.0.
In addition to supporting IEEE floating-point functions, a NonStop system on which SQL/MX
Release 2.0 is installed must support the SQL/MX minimum requirement of 1GB per processor.
Therefore, the S74, S7000, and S7400 cannot be used because they do not support the
minimum memory requirement.For more information about the SQL/MX hardware and memory
requirements, see the SQL/MX Installation and Management Guide.
