HP classify the HP-UX cabable servers into low-end, mid-range and high end (not only based on CPU count), for both PA-RISC and Integrity.

Actule what U mean Class 1, Class 2 & Class 3

If U mean Class 1 server is high end then is HP NonStop or SuperDome (PA-RSIC & Itenium) Server, the both server is HP high-end server as previous mansion Mr. Torsten.

NonStop server URL site:-
http://h20223.www2.hp.com/NonStopComputing/cache/307953-0-0-190-121.html (Itanium)
http://h20223.www2.hp.com/NonStopComputing/cache/255746-0-0-190-121.html (MIPS RISC)
SuperDome server URL site:-
http://www.hp.com/products1/servers/scalableservers/superdome/comparison.html (PA-RISC)
http://h20341.www2.hp.com/integrity/cache/342254-0-0-0-121.html (Itanium)

HP AlphaServer high-end server (HP production discontinue)
http://h18002.www1.hp.com/alphaserver/sc_gs.html

If U mean Class 2 is mid-rand then HP has mid-rang server.

Mid-Rang Server PA-RISC based:
http://www.hp.com/products1/servers/mid_range/index.html
Mid-Rang Server Itanium based:
http://h20341.www2.hp.com/integrity/cache/340168-0-0-0-121.html

If U mean Class 3 is low end then server that is HP entry-class server.

Itanium based entry-class server:
http://h20341.www2.hp.com/integrity/cache/331424-0-0-0-121.html

PA-RISC entry-level server:

Well done, YAQUB!

Sanwin, if this is not what you are looking for, so please explain your question again.

There are no class 1,class 2, class 3 categories ...

[Torsten.]

Just found another nice link:

http://h10018.www1.hp.com/wwsolutions/selector/index_server.html

As you can see, the range goes from 1 to 128 CPU cores, from only a few up to 192 PCI slots and up to 2TB RAM.
