Integrity Superdome now supports the Console and Support Management Station in one device.
Windows Server 2003 supports NCU, NIC Configuration Utility. This is the same NCU that is available to
Proliant customers. This NCU has been ported to 64 bit Windows Server 2003 and is included with every
SmartSetup CD that comes with a Windows partition on Integrity Superdome.
All ProLiant Ethernet network adapters support the following three types of teaming:
NFT—Network Fault Tolerance
TLB—Transmit Load Balancing
SLB—Switch-assisted Load Balancing
For Windows Server 2003 on Superdome, there are four network interface cards that are currently
supported (thus, these are the only cards that can be teamed with this NCU):
Windows/Linux PCI 1000Base-T Gigabit Ethernet Adapter (Copper)
Windows/Linux PCI 1000Base-SX Gigabit Ethernet Adapter (Fiber)
Windows/Linux PCI 2 port 1000Base-T Gigabit Ethernet Adapter (Copper)
Windows/Linux PCI 2 port 1000Base-T Gigabit Ethernet Adapter (Fiber)
Also, note that teaming between the ports on a single A9900A or A9899A above is supported by the
NCU.
An HP OpenVMS Cluster is a highly integrated organization of AlphaServer and HP Integrity server
systems, applications, operating systems, and storage devices. These systems can be connected to each
other and storage components in a variety of ways. HP OpenVMS Cluster software is an integral part of
the OpenVMS operating system, providing the basis for many of the key capabilities utilized by
OpenVMS enterprise solutions. A full "shared everything" cluster design that has been in existence for
more than 20 years, OpenVMS Cluster software allows for the maximum in expandability, scalability,
and availability for mission-critical applications. Qualified for up to 96 computer nodes and more than
3,000 processors, OpenVMS clusters afford virtually 100 percent uptime and expand the
multiprocessing capabilities of the computing environment.
