About This Guide
This guide describes how to install and bring up a NonStop S-series server for the first time. It includes information about installing the server hardware, cabling system enclosures, installing and starting system consoles, installing external system devices, and starting the server. This guide is written for anyone who is qualified to install a
NonStop S-series server.
This guide assumes that you are using the HP NonStop Open System Management
(OSM) or Compaq TSM software to perform the OSM or TSM tasks described in this guide.
Note. Throughout this guide, the term Sxx000 stands for NonStop S70000, S72000, S74000, S76000, S78000, S86000, S88000 servers.
Information in this guide also applies to NonStop S7x00 servers of model S7400 and higher.
Who Should Use This Guide
This guide is written for anyone who installs system equipment at a customer site. You should be familiar with computers but do not need to be familiar with installing mainframe computer systems. However, those who perform the hardware tasks documented in this guide must have completed training courses on system support for NonStop S-series servers.
Note. NonStop NS-series, NonStop S-series, and NonStop K-series refer to hardware systems; H-series, G-series, and D-series refer to system software.
•
•
•
H-series software runs on NonStop NS-series servers.
G-series software runs on NonStop S-series servers.
D-series software runs on NonStop K-series servers.

TSM Guided Replacement Procedures |
TSM Guided Replacement Procedures
TSM guided replacements procedures are launched by the Windows Start menu
(rather than integrated into the application).
Note. TSM does not support IOAM or Fibre Channel disk-drive enclosures. OSM should be used to manage systems that include these components.
To access the TSM guided replacement procedures:
Start > Programs > Compaq TSM > Guided Replacement Tools
These guided replacement procedures are currently available:
•

•
•
Replace IOMF
Replace PMF
Replace Power Supply
Replace SEB or MSEB
Replace SNDA
Replace Switch Component
Guided Replacement Toolkit (GRT)
Note. The GRT is used to replace an IOMF, PMF, power supply, or 6760 ServerNet device adapter (ServerNet/DA) in a system running TSM server T7945AAW (shipped with the G06.12 RVU) or earlier.

Notation Conventions |
Notation Conventions
Hypertext Links
Blue underline is used to indicate a hypertext link within text. By clicking a passage of text with a blue underline, you are taken to the location described. For example:
This requirement is described under Backup DAM Volumes and Physical Disk
Drives on page 3-2.
General Syntax Notation
This list summarizes the notation conventions for syntax presentation in this manual.
UPPERCASE LETTERS. Uppercase letters indicate keywords and reserved words; enter these items exactly as shown. Items not enclosed in brackets are required. For example:
MAXATTACH
lowercase italic letters. Lowercase italic letters indicate variable items that you supply. Items not enclosed in brackets are required. For example:
file-name
computer type. Computer type letters within text indicate C and Open System Services (OSS) keywords and reserved words; enter these items exactly as shown. Items not enclosed in brackets are required. For example:
myfile.c
italic computer type. Italic computer type letters within text indicate C and Open
System Services (OSS) variable items that you supply. Items not enclosed in brackets are required. For example:
pathname
Punctuation. Parentheses, commas, semicolons, and other symbols not previously described must be entered as shown. For example:
error := NEXTFILENAME ( file-name ) ;
LISTOPENS SU $process-name.#su-name
Quotation marks around a symbol such as a bracket or brace indicate the symbol is a required character that you must enter as shown. For example:
"[" repetition-constant-list "]"
Item Spacing. Spaces shown between items are required unless one of the items is a punctuation symbol such as a parenthesis or a comma. For example:
CALL STEPMOM ( process-id ) ;

About This Guide |
Notation for Messages |
If there is no space between two items, spaces are not permitted. In this example, there are no spaces permitted between the period and any other items:
$process-name.#su-name
Line Spacing. If the syntax of a command is too long to fit on a single line, each continuation line is indented three spaces and is separated from the preceding line by a blank line. This spacing distinguishes items in a continuation line from items in a vertical list of selections. For example:
ALTER [ / OUT file-spec / ] LINE
[ , attribute-spec ]…
Notation for Messages
This list summarizes the notation conventions for the presentation of displayed messages in this manual.
Nonitalic text. Nonitalic letters, numbers, and punctuation indicate text that is displayed or returned exactly as shown. For example:
Backup Up.
lowercase italic letters. Lowercase italic letters indicate variable items whose values are displayed or returned. For example:
p-register
process-name
Change Bar Notation
Change bars are used to indicate substantive differences between this edition of the manual and the preceding edition. Change bars are vertical rules placed in the right margin of changed portions of text, figures, tables, examples, and so on. Change bars highlight new or revised information. For example:
The message types specified in the REPORT clause are different in the COBOL environment and the Common Run-Time Environment (CRE).
The CRE has many new message types and some new message type codes for old message types. In the CRE, the message type SYSTEM includes all messages except LOGICAL-CLOSE and LOGICAL-OPEN.
