Processor Types and Memory Sizes
Processor Types and Memory Sizes
This table lists the memory sizes available for each processor type. The processors
within a system are not required to have the same amount of memory. However, if you
are planning for a system containing processors with different memory sizes, you might
want to perform a capacity analysis to ensure that, in the event of a processor failure,
the backup processor can maintain the performance level for the increased load.
For more information about the memory in NonStop S-series servers, see Memory on
page 4-39.
Internal Disk Drives
Each NonStop S-series system enclosure can contain up to 16 internal disk drives.
Supported Internal Disk Drives
The internal disk drives supported in all NonStop S-series system enclosures for the
current RVU are listed in Internal Disk Drives on page F-4.
Disk Drives for 16-GB Processors
To perform an online memory dump of a 16-GB processor to a disk volume using
RECEIVEDUMP or RCVDUMP, you must have one 36-GB or larger disk drive in which
20 GB is reserved for memory dump. The remaining storage space can be used for
anything. This disk does not have to be $SYSTEM.
Disk Drive Enclosure
A disk drive enclosure (DDE) contains up to fourteen Fibre Channel disk drives. The
DDE connects to the system by way of an FCSA in the IOAME. The system and mirror
disks cannot be located on these disk drives.
