NonStop SQL/MX
•
For new features, see the Interactive Upgrade Guide 2. For installation and
configuration information, see the OSM Migration and Configuration Guide .
You must use OSM (instead of TSM) to:
°
Manage and configure ServerNet Clusters using layered topology with
ServerNet Switch model 6780. (HP also recommends using OSM to manage
all systems in a ServerNet Cluster using star topology with ServerNet Switch
model 6770. OSM suppresses generation of alarms and dial-outs on all nodes
in the cluster when service actions are performed on a cluster from any node.
This protection is not available if some nodes are being managed by TSM
because TSM cannot communicate with OSM.)
°
Automatically recognize online disk remirroring. TSM must be stopped and
then started. Only OSM recognizes online disk remirroring without intervention.
°
Support the I/O adapter module (IOAM) enclosure and its components. Using
OSM, you can configure an IOAM enclosure before it is integrated into the
system.
°
Support Fibre Channel disk modules.
°
Support new device models for the HP Virtual Tape for NonStop Servers.
°
Take advantage of HP SIM (see HP Systems Insight Manager (SIM) on
page 1-2) or ISEE (a web-based alternative to using a modem for dial-outs) in
the NonStop environment.
