OSM Configuration and Fallback (G06.10 Through
G06.27)
OSM Configuration and Fallback (G06.10 Through G06.27)
Note that if you are installing and using OSM, HP recommends that the NSK CRE/RTL
(T1269) product be installed on the system, as opposed to the Native CRE/RTL
(T8431), which is the default. Refer to S02001 for migration considerations for T1269.
See also S03133B for more information on configuring OSM.
For fallback issues, see the OSM Migration Guide. The guide covers OSM and TSM
coexistence and fallback issues, such as:
•
Comparison of OSM to TSM
•
OSM hardware and software requirements
•
Migrating an existing TSM system list to a new console for OSM use
•
Coexistence issues for using both OSM and TSM
•
Fallback instructions for changing configuration from OSM back to TSM
OSS (G06.12 through G06.27)
As of G06.12, the format of the records in the OSS configuration databases has
changed. A special SPR, T8622AAH, ensures backward compatibility if you need to fall
back to an RVU prior to G06.12.
These are additional considerations for OSS upgrade and configuration:
•
Disk volumes that are accessed by the OSS environment, including the $SYSTEM
volume where the OSS Monitor’s configuration files are kept, must not be
configured for administration by the HP NonStop Storage Management Foundation
(SMF).
•
Beginning with the G06.18 RVU, OSSMON is not dependent on $ZSMP to be
started. (In earlier G-series and D-series RVUs, when you configured OSSMON to
start automatically during the system load process, you had to configure the
Safeguard security manager process $ZSMP to start automatically before
OSSMON was started.)
•
Starting with G06.26, Safeguard volume protection records are no longer required
for creation of OSS files.

Caution. You cannot simultaneously use both heap managers (T8431 and T1269) on the
same system.
