User guide

guided procedure
A software tool that assists you in performing complex configuration or replacement
tasks on an NonStop server. OSM guided procedures are launched through actions in the
OSM Service Connection.
H
halt
To stop a processor, terminating all processes running in it. Halt is a processor action
available in both the OSM Low-Level Link and the OSM Service Connection. Halting a
processor does not affect any other processors in the system.
An error situation that stops a processor, terminating all processes running in it. If a
processor halts on its own, OSM issues an alarm such as Processor Software Halt.
hard reset
An action performed on an HP NonStop™ Cluster Switch (model 6770) and HP
NonStop™ ServerNet Switch (model 6780) that reinitializes the router-2 ASIC within the
switch, disrupting the routing of ServerNet messages through the switch for several
minutes. When the hard reset is finished, the paths are restored automatically.
hardware error freeze (HEF)
A lock-step error that has caused a processor to freeze.
HP NonStop Cluster Switch (model 6770)
An assembly that routes ServerNet messages across an external fabric of a ServerNet
cluster. The cluster switch consists of a ServerNet II Switch, an uninterruptible power
supply (UPS), and AC transfer switch, and it can be packaged in a switch enclosure or in
a 19-inch rack. The cluster switch is used with star, split-star, and tri-star topologies. See
also HP NonStop Cluster Switch (model 6780).
HP NonStop ServerNet Switch (model 6780)
The cluster switch used in the layered topology. The 6780 switch consists of a switch
logic board, a midplane, plug-in cards, power supplies, and fans.

I
incident report (IR)
A report sent by the OSM software on the server to the OSM Notification Director on the
OSM system console. Incident reports notify you of changes that could directly affect the
availability of resources, changes in hardware configuration, and changes in software
