NAC 2 runs on the SNN hardware platform. The SNN hardware platform
includes the following hardware components:
MVME167-34 CPU card
1.2 Gbyte hard disk
600 Mbyte cassette tape drive
1 to 5 MVME332XT serial I/O cards
Five software installation procedures can be used to install a NAC 2
system. The procedure you use depends on the release of NAC you
currently use or the type of upgrade you want to perform.
If your operation has never used a NAC system, you can only complete a
NAC 2 new software installation.
There are two types of new software installations—customer-installed or
factory-installed. You perform the applicable procedure the first time you
install the system. Refer to the "New software installations" chapter for
more information.
As new releases of NAC 2 software are developed, you can purchase an
updated version of the software and install it onto your NAC 2 system. To
install the software, you would perform a load new software release
procedure. Refer to the "Loading a new software release" chapter for more
information.
If you need to perform a installation or application upgrade, refer to the
"Software reinstallations and upgrades" chapter.

Installation upgrades

An installation upgrade is performed when you want to install new NAC 2
software that changes system functionality, or when you need to reinstall
existing NAC 2 system software.
