Task 3: Check and Install the Required Software
Task 3: Check and Install the Required
Software
Time constraints unique to each production environment might make it difficult to install
the required software on all systems all at once. At least one node for each zone is
required during the installation of 6780 switches. For all nodes to join the ServerNet
cluster, you must install any required software before connecting the fiber-optic cable
between the node and the 6780 switch.
Checking the Required Software
For NonStop S-series servers, the minimum versions of the server software listed in
Software Requirements for NonStop S-Series Servers on page 1-8 are required.
1. If you are currently running the G06.21 (or later) RVU and do not plan to use the
long-distance option, all the required server software is installed. Skip to Task 4:
Check Operations and the Required Processes on page 4-5.
2. If you are currently running the G06.19 or G06.20 RVU, check these version
procedure dates (VPROC) at a TACL prompt:
> VPROC $SYSTEM.SYSnn.SANMAN
> VPROC $SYSTEM.SYSnn.SNETMON
> VPROC $SYSTEM.SYSnn.MSGMON
> VPROC $SYSTEM.SYSnn.CIMOM
> VPROC $SYSTEM.SYSnn.RALPRVD
> VPROC $SYSTEM.SYSnn.M2789
> VPROC $SYSTEM.SYSnn.C2790
> VPROC $SYSTEM.SYSnn.LBC2819
> VPROC $SYSTEM.SYSnn.SPCODE9
3. If the VPROC does not match or supersede those in Tabl e 4-2
, install the
appropriate SPR.
Note. If you plan to use the long-distance option, you must install the G06.22 RVU and a
restricted SPR containing switch logic board configuration (T2790AAC). For more information,
see Appendix G, Using the Long-Distance Option
.
