SCF Storage Subsystem (Online Disk Remirroring)
CHANGE HIGHPIN OFF IN CSPOOL
SCF Storage Subsystem (Online Disk Remirroring)
Beginning with G06.21, OSM automatically recognizes online remirrored disks.
However, you cannot perform online reconfiguration of a mirror drive while TSM
($ZTSM) is running. You must always stop the TSM server process before you
implement online disk remirroring (ODR). After issuing SCF commands for ODR,
restart the TSM server.
During the ODR operation when using TSM, error 00012 might appear. For cause and
recovery information, see Appendix B in the SCF Reference Manual for the Storage
Subsystem.
For detailed descriptions of using SCF commands to configure ODR, see the SCF
Reference Manual for the Storage Subsystem.
SWID (T9298G02)
Restore and Receive Before Upgrading
SWID is the software identification utility invoked by the SYSGENR program that audits
file identification information about your software. You must restore and receive the
new SWID PVU before you install the G06.30 SUT. See Copy (RESTORE) the
T6031ABZ DSM/SCM Product Version and SWID to Disk on page B-5.
Tandem Failure Data System (TFDS)
Check that TFDS is configured properly on the system. (TFDS monitors processors in
NonStop servers for software failure notifications.) The dump volume should not be
protected by Safeguard and should also be properly configured.
TNS/R CRE Heap Manager
The G06.15 RVU introduced a new heap manager, NSK CRE/RTL (T1269), an
alternative to the Native CRE/RTL product (T8431). You can choose either heap
manager during the creation of a system configuration revision. Consequently, the
choice of which one to install is an independent decision for your system. For migration
considerations, see Support Note S02001. For installation instructions, see Support
Note S03104.
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
Note. DSM/SCM automatically sets CSPOOL to HIGHPIN and automatically overlays the
current object file CSPOOL with the original from the SUT whenever a subsequent Build/Apply
is performed. See Support Note S03006A.
