I need to upgrade from D200's and C110's
to new or newer platforms and still run HP UX
10.20. The new systems will have to support a hardware RAID controller using internal or external new 36GB LVD disks ( 5 of ). Any suggestions for the new config ?
Solved! Go to Solution.

Re: Hardware Upgrade from D200 to newer systems
All the new hardwares supports minimum 11.00
You cannot install 10.20 (32 bit)on any new hardware (64 bit).
Think of migrating your applications for hp-ux 11.x
If that's not posible you can go for remarketed K-Class server or similar.
Up to my knowledge none of these servers supports LVD disk. (All are differential)

Re: Hardware Upgrade from D200 to newer systems
Im not sure about the LVD (meaning I dont remember seeing LVD intefaces in boxes that can support to run hpux 10.20.)
For you 10.20 upgrade I believe you will have to look for a broker for refurbished boxes...
The uprade would be to go to a PA8000 processor that can support 32 bit and 64 bit OS (to my knowledge the highest would be PA-8200).
The boxes these were in are D280 K280(maybe) dont know but believe D380, K380 and K580..
No L class support 10.20
About DXXX and KXXX they did have external scsi cards but as said previously I never seen LVD... Ihave heard of some adapters that would convert though...
I recently went for a K580 with 4 HVD scsi interface on it and extra 100Mb FD Ethernet card
Works well...
All the best
Victor
P.S. add enough memory then... (2GB)

SolutionYou can get the LVD cards on the 9000/Visualize workstations but on the D class the best you can get is a Fiber Channel interface card.
If you can move up to 11.00 or 11i, then the sky and your budget is the limit as to what hardware you can get.
Hope this helps

Re: Hardware Upgrade from D200 to newer systems
Also, the K580 can connect to an FC60 (up to 60 73GB LVD Drives), but the connection is 2 Fibre Channel connections.

Re: Hardware Upgrade from D200 to newer systems
There is a total lack of information available from HP regarding older HP 9000
systems.
It is as if HP didn't exist before it
purchased Compaq.
There is a need for an HP 9000 equivalent of
the Alpha Supported Options List. The Alpha
list has each Alpha system listed with what
options are supported ( inc part #'s ) and
what Operating systems are supported for the
system and each of the options. Try to
find that level of info for a D200 for
instance - a major task.
