HP NonStop ODBC
Server
Database connectivity software that allows programs written for
use with the Microsoft Open Database Connectivity (ODBC)
product, the Microsoft Structured Query Language (SQL) Server,
or the Sybase SQL server to access ODBC databases. The
NonStop ODBC Server replaces the HP SQL Server Gateway
product.
HP NonStop
ServerNet Switch
(model 6780)
A modular cluster switch that includes a logic board, plug-in cards,
power supplies, and fans. A cluster switch controls the routing of
ServerNet messages across the external fabrics of a ServerNet
cluster. The 6780 switch supports ServerNet clusters using the
layered topology.
HP NonStop Remote
Server Call/MP
(RSC/MP)
RSC/MP allows workstations to access Pathway servers and other
Guardian processes on a NonStop S-series server. RSC/MP lets
you implement powerful client-server applications—the workstation
is the client; the NonStop S-series server with its NonStop
Transaction Services/MP (NonStop TS/MP) and Pathway/iTS
online transaction processing (OLTP) software is the server—by
taking advantage of the power of the workstation with its extensive
capabilities and easy-to-use graphical user interfaces (GUIs).
HP NonStop
ServerNet Clusters
A communications product consisting of both hardware and
software components that permits the clustering of NonStop
S-series servers. ServerNet clusters allow multiple multiprocessor
systems to work together and appear to client applications as one
large processing entity.
HP NonStop TCP/IP A communications subsystem that provides access to a network,
allowing you to use the file transfer protocol (FTP) to transfer files
to your HP system and run Web-based servers through facilities
such as Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP). NonStop TCP/IP
also provides multicast support, which enables NonStop S-series
servers to initiate and receive messages intended for multiple
Internet Protocol (IP) addresses associated with Internet
subscriptions.
HP NonStop
TCP/IPv6
NonStop TCP/IPv6 adds IP version 6 (IPv6) functionality to the
Parallel Library TCP/IP product. Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6),
as defined in RFC 2460, is the replacement network layer protocol
for the Internet, designed to replace the current Internet Protocol
Version 4 (IPv4).
HP OSI/AS A communications subsystem that provides the services of the
Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) Session and Presentation
Layers and the ACSE component of the OSI Application Layer,
allowing HP applications to communicate with other applications in
a multivendor environment.
