11 Offline Configuration Tasks
This section describes offline configuration tasks, which change software or hardware
configurations and require the system to be shut down.
Changes That Must Be Made Offline
A few configuration changes must be made offline:
•
Installing a new RVU.
•
Installing a product revision, such as a software product revision (SPR), that
requires a system load.
•
Making configuration changes that either cannot be made using an online
configuration tool or require a system load to take effect, such as changing the
system name.
•
Changing the system topology.
•
Changing the configuration of the QIOMON process.
•
Changing the CONFTEXT file.
•
Some online PMF CRU upgrades are not allowed. To see what upgrades can be
made online, see the NonStop S-Series Planning and Configuration Guide. No
others are supported.
Offline changes are usually performed during a planned outage. For more information
about planned outages, see the NonStop S-Series Planning and Configuration Guide.
