Servers
Software Requirements for NonStop S-Series 
Servers
Before adding a NonStop S-series server to a ServerNet cluster that uses the layered 
topology, you must install the required software. HP recommends that you install the 
latest product version updates (PVUs). 
Minimum RVUs and SPRs Required
The software listed in Table 1-3 and the Expand profiles in Table 1-4 on page 1-9 are 
required for ServerNet clusters that contain only NonStop S-series servers.

RVU SPRs Required Comments
G06.22 
or later 
RVU 
No additional SPRs are required if the 
Expand profiles are installed and you 
are not using the long-distance option.
The long-distance option is supported. 
See the additional software 
requirements in Appendix G, Using the 
Long-Distance Option.
G06.21 
or later 
RVU
No additional SPRs are required if the 
Expand profiles are installed. 
The long-distance option is not 
supported.
G06.19 
or 
G06.20 
RVU
These SPRs and all prerequisite SPRs 
provide support for the layered 
topology that is equivalent to the 
G06.21 RVU.  
The long-distance option is not 
supported.
For more information about the SPRs 
and prerequisites, refer to the softdoc 
for each product.
For best performance, HP 
recommends that you install the latest 
superceding or replacement SPRs. 
OSM CIMOM T2727AAC This SPR supports ServerNet clusters 
with only NonStop S-series servers.
OSM Service Provider T2728AAC  This SPR supports ServerNet clusters 
with only NonStop S-series servers. 
Upgrading OSM online does not 
disrupt ServerNet communication over 
the cluster. 
SNETMON/MSGMON T0294AAL This SPR supports ServerNet clusters 
with only NonStop S-series servers.
SANMAN T0502AAL  Installing SANMAN does not disrupt 
ServerNet communication over the 
cluster. However, OSM cannot display 
information about the external fabrics 
until the software installation is 
finished.
