Installation Overview
Server Numbering and Labeling
A NonStop server can contain up to 44 system enclosures (8 processor enclosures
and 36 I/O enclosures) with a total of 16 processors. IOAM enclosures can replace any
or all I/O enclosures attached to group 01.
The type of NonStop server, the configuration, and the RVU all affect the number of I/O
or IOAM enclosures supported. Table 1-2 shows the processors that reside in each
processor enclosure, plus the maximum number of I/O enclosures or IOAM enclosures
that each processor enclosure connects to. Groups 11 through 89 are I/O enclosures.
IOAM enclosures can replace any or all I/O enclosures attached to group 01.
For an important restriction on adding IOAM enclosures to your system, see IOAM
Configuration Requirements on page 1-32.
