2 Identifying NS2300 System Components
Component Location and Identification in a NS2300 System
This chapter provides the terminology and group-module-slot numbering for NS2300 system
components to assist you in identifying and locating these components.
NOTE: For IP addresses for NS2300 system components, refer your service provider to the
NonStop NS2100 and NS2300 Hardware Installation Manual.
Terminology
These are terms used in locating and describing components in a NS2300 system:
Definition Term
Structure integrated into the cabinet into which
rack-mountable components are assembled. Rack
The physical location of components installed in a modular
rack, measured in U values numbered 1 to 42, with 1U at
the bottom of the rack. A U is 1.75 inches (44 millimeters). Rack Offset
A subset of a system that contains one or more modules.
A group does not necessarily correspond to a single
physical object, such as an enclosure. Group
A subset of a group that is usually contained in an
enclosure. A module contains one or more slots (or bays). Module
A module can consist of components sharing a common
interconnect, such as a backplane, or it can be a logical
grouping of components performing a particular function.
A subset of a module that is the logical or physical location
of a component within that module. Slot (or Bay or Position)
A connector to which a cable can be attached and which
transmits and receives data. Port
A notation method used by hardware and software in
NonStop systems for organizing and identifying the
location of certain hardware components. •
Group-Module-Slot (GMS)
•
Group-Module-Slot-Bay (GMSB)
•
Group-Module-Slot-Port (GMSP)
In a NS2300 system, OSM uses this term to hierarchically
differentiate between each blade element. Blade complex
An rx2800 i4 server that contains the processor element,
power supplies, fan assemblies, and firmware. A NS2300
system includes up to four blade elements. rx2800 i4 blade element
