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.
