1Introduction
The range of BS2000/OSD servers has been extended by the addition of the S140 series.
The spectrum of user facilities of the new models lies betweeen that of the S135 and the
S150. They are powerful systems for scientific and commercial applications.
The S140 Business Server (or cluster) has a modular structure and can easily be upgraded
on site.
The main memory can be expanded by up to 8 Gbytes. Optional global storage (GSP or
SSU) can be upgraded to maximum of 64 Gbytes and if desired can have a battery buffer.
The input/output system consists of 1 I/O processor. Up to 128 channels can therefore be
configured for connecting peripheral devices with type-2, type-S or type-F channel interfaces. LAN networking is possible via the 3970-SKP servive/console processor, a connection to the TRANSDATA network world via front-end processors.
The service processor (SVP) and the external 3970-SKP service/console processor
support common operation, monitoring, diagnosis and maintenance of the computer as well
as TELESERVICE.
Several S140 models can easily be integrated into a HIPLEX network with a jointly used
global storage.
Like all computers in the 7.500 system family and the S1xx server series, the S140
Business Server uses the BS2000 operating system in either dialog, OLTP or batch mode.
This offers the portability and compatibility of BS2000 programs.

This chapter provides information on the configuration levels and the configuration of the
S140 Business Server series and the concept of system operation.
S140 Business Server Global storages
Figure 2: S140 Business Server, global storages and battey units
The S140 Business Server consists of a cabinet plus an additional cabinet for channel
expansions.
Two optional global storages can be connected; these are situated in a cabinet one and a
half times as wide as a normal cabinet.
The optional battery unit for each global storage comprises one cabinet. It ensures that no
data is lost in the global storage in the event of a power failure.
Battery units
3.1 Configuration levels of the S140 Business Server
The S140 Business Server series consists of seven models. Upgrading of the individual
models can easily be carried out on site, so that system downtime is not extended due to
hardware installation.
The S140 models can have multiple processing units and channel groups. Thus a reconfiguration is possible for these models if there is a partial failure.
U41161-J-Z126-1-76 7
Configuration levels of the S140 Business Server Overview
If a processing unit fails, the other processors take over its tasks without interrupting
operation (dynamic reconfiguration).

Concept of system operation Overview
The following hardware and software components are important for the operation of S140:
Service processor (SVP) in the S140 CPU.
This is responsible for the following tasks in the S140 CPU:
– initialization
– monitoring
– controlling
– hardware diagnosis
The service/console processor (3970-SKP) with the SINIX operating system.
Operation of the S140 system is handled via a local PC, the 3970-SKP service/console
processor. S140 and 3970-SKP communicate with one another in three ways:
– serial line (V.24)
– type-S I/O channel
– internal LAN connection
The following components can be operated via the local 3970-SKP screen and remote
secondary consoles:
– the SINIX system of the 3970-SKP
– the SVP of the S140
– the BS2000 running on the S140
– consoles for up to 15 VM2000 guest systems
– BS2000 applications via 9750 emulation
Automatic Operator (ATOP).
The ATOP is a device which is connected to the 3970-SKP via a serial line. It makes the
following functions possible:
– automatic switching on and off of the S140
– automatic operation of the BS2000 system
The customer can program the ATOP to specify which operating functions should
be executed for which conditions.
Examples:
– automatic shutdown of the system in the case of fan failure.
– automatic command entry in reaction to certain BS2000 console messages.
It is possible to connect a radio-controlled clock or Global Time Server (GTS).
On/off facility makes it possible to switch the S140 on and off from the 3970-SKP.

Overview Concept of system operation
3.2.2 Software
The following software components play an important role in S140 operation:
Window interface
The SINIX operating system is run on the 3970-SKP. One component of SINIX is the
window interface based on the X Window system (see the ”SINIX-2000 V7.5/V8.0” [1]
manual).
V7
The following system components use the window system:
– BS2000 (e.g. CONS0 or EM9750 window, see page 37)
– SVP (e.g. SVPST0 window, see page 37)
– SINIX (e.g. SINIX or EVENT window, see page 37)
The system provides preconfigured windows for operation which are opened automatically when the 3970-SKP is started up.
V7
Console distribution program KVP (German acronym)
The operation of BS2000 from the 3970-SKP is controlled by the Console Distribution
Program. KVP carries out the following tasks:
– authorization controls
– distribution of the BS2000 tasks to several consoles
– short- and long-term logging of the console traffic
A brief introduction to the window system can be found in the chapter entitled
"Brief introduction to the window system" in the "SINIX-2000 V7.5/V8.0" [1]
manual. Further information can be found in the "SINIX/windows User
Environment V3.0" [2] manual.
The number of windows for operating BS2000 and SINIX, the order of the
windows on the screen, their size and some other properties can be changed
using the relevant configuration functions. Information on this can be found in
the chapter entitled "Configuring the system", in the sections "X screens" and
"Virtual screens", in the "SINIX-2000 V7.5/V8.0" manual.
KVP requires parameters that are stored in the KVP parameter file of the built-in disk of
the 3970-SKP. The KVP parameters are created in SINIX when the system is installed
and can be changed with the help of the SINIX configuration.
V7
U41161-J-Z126-1-76 11
Information on configuring the KVP can be found in the chapter entitled “Configuring the system”, in the section “KVP”, in the “SINIX-2000 V7.5/V8.0” manual.
Concept of system operation Overview
3.2.3 Authorization control
The access to operation of the BS2000, SVP and SINIX system components is protected.
The passwords will be defined during the installation of the systems and can be changed
afterwards.
Access to the SVP operation
After you have filled out and sent off the welcome screen in the window for SVP
operation, the system requests you to enter the password.
Access to the BS2000 console
If you try to make an entry in a BS2000 control window after the SINIX system has been
started up for the first time, you will be requested to enter a password.
For further information, see chapter 7, ”Operating the BS2000 console”, on page 95.
Access to VM2000 consoles
Direct operation of VM2000 guest systems is possible via the SKP-X.
When you try to make an entry in a VM2000 console window for the first time after pow-
ering up the SINIX system, you will be requested to enter the password.
The configuration of VM2000 consoles requires release by means of key diskettes.
Access to BS2000 system administration
If you want to work as a system administrator in BS2000, you must use a type EM9750
window, fill in the welcome screen, and log in by entering a BS2000 user ID (usually
tsos) and - if agreed - a BS2000 password for BS2000.
Access to SINIX system administration
If you want to carry out system administration tasks under SINIX you must log into a
SINIX window by entering a SINIX user ID (i.e. admin, root or sysadm) and password.
Access to the EVENT window
Certain functions can be executed using the EVENT window.
The first time you try to make an entry in this window after the system has been started
up, you will be requested to enter the password for the SINIX user ID
event.

you can specify
– whether the S140 should be switched on automatically if the 3970-SKP is switched

However, it is only switched off automatically if the SINIX system is shut down using
shutdown. If it is shut down and restarted using shutdown -i6, no switching action is
carried out.
Configuring the automatic deactivation may have unforeseen consequences, since
switching off the 3970-SKP without thinking about it properly (e.g. for maintenance
!
work) also causes the S140 to be switched off.
We recommend shutting down the system manually at the required times, switching
off the S140 via the AU4 frame (see page 74) or using the sysadm form described
above (bottom query), and then switching off the 3970-SKP.
If an ATOP is connected (see page 32), the sequence of actions for switching off
must be programmed accordingly.
